Slackware :: Use UDF As The File Format?
Sep 9, 2010
I have a new external 500gb drive I want to format and put data on. I first formatted it as Fat32 as I'd like to access it with Windows at some point. I ended up having a few files over 4gb, so that didn't work.
I'd like to use UDF as the file format. Does anyone see any issues with formatting a 500GB drive with UDF? I don't see any reason why I would want to WRITE to the drive in Windows, just read...but there is software out there to allow Windows XP to write to a UDF drive if I needed to.

I put a larger drive in my netbook and stuck the old in an external USB enclosure so I could use it for backups. It had three partitions on it, ntfs and linux so I deleted all the partitions and created one big linux partition. Every time I write and exit fdisk the removable disk utility in KDE pops up and says ntfs drive. If I ignore it and try to formatit wants to use ntfs, if I fsck.ext3 it saysThe superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2filesystem. If the deviceis valid and it really contains an ext2filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblockis corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:e2fsck -b 8193 <device>2fsck -b 8193 doesn't work either.It seems like its caching something, I can print the partition table and see the one linux partition I created.
Code:
Disk /dev/sdb: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders

I started writing compat32pkg late April. At the begining it was only for my personal use (and for the fun), and, it was only dedicated to automate updates of 32-bit part of the 32-bit compatibility layer (AlienBob's multilib). Afterward, I improved it, I added some features and now, it provides all the necessary for managing (converting,installing,upgrading,remove) of 32-bit part of the multilib, and others packages which are part of Slackware-32 like firefox, seamonkey, jre,. As I guess it could be usefull for others, I decided to publish it. So, if you want it, you can grab it at [URL]... But before that, I guess that you want to know a bit more about it. So, let's go. The installation of compat32pkg is done as for any Slackware package, using the command installpkg :
[code]...
If you want to convert packages to format compat32 only, you have to use compat32pkg in mode --convert instead of --install :
[code]...
The example below will give you the list of all available packages from the selected mirror and the status of the compat32 version (installed, not installed, update) of these packages......

A little background first: Wireless card: Broadcom BCM4312 Wireless driver used: [URL].... (and slackbuild variation of the same)
GFX card: nVidia geForce 7150m I installed Slackware yesterday, along side my Ubuntu (yes yes, I use Ubuntu lol. I've been using it for about four years, I added Slackware to grub.cfg, using the OS prober, which added four menu entries. The first two caused kernel panic, the third worked, and I don't think I tried the fourth. (I'm pretty sure they were, in this order: generic, generic-smp, huge, and huge-smp). Using huge, I could not modprobe my wireless driver, I would get a "Invalid Module Format" error with wl, and when installing the nVidia drivers (from their site), I would get:
[code]....
I then booted using a menuentry my friend gave me, created my initrd, and everything worked fine, both graphics and wireless (mostly fine). So I upgraded to -current, kernel 2.6.35.10, and I started getting the same errors as before, 'Invalid Module format' and the same thing with the nVidia drivers, although this time, it happens regardless of if I use the generic kernel, or the huge kernel. I've done heaps of Google'ing around, and nothing I found worked.

If I set the clock to speak the time, I get this when it tries: starting kttsd failed. I've looked at the various posts, but haven't yet found an actual solution. I've tried to run kttsmgr, but for some reason the "run" dialog doesn't seem to do anything - no error, nothing. Type kttsmgr, press enter since there is not obvious other way to execute the command, and nothing happens.
Is this a module that does not come with KDE? And I give - I can't find time format anywhere. How do you change the clock that appears in the lower right corner to 12 hour instead of what appears to be default 24 hour? I don't see it in "Digital Clock Settings", and I don't see it in System Settings - Date & Time. This is a clean install of slackware 13.1, and whatever version of KDE comes with it.

I like this linux distribution more than the others that i have used, because is more stable for my work. But there are some little problems that I can't solve. I'm using it with a laptop HP G60 and i can run OpenOffice, Mozilla and some other programs (python, grass, qgis) that used for work at the office, but when I go home and want to watch a movie with my girl, listen some music or any other simple task, i find a lot of little problems:
1. Adjust the bright of the screen, the Power Management Guidance don't do it and I really need it.
2. Can't play movies in VLC "No suitable decoder module. VLC does not support the audio or video format XVID. Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this"
3. And today I can't play music because there is a message "KDE detected that one or more internal sound devices were removed" this is: Output HDA Intel, INTEL HDMI 0 (HDMI Audio Output)
I know maybe these problems are stupid but in windows is easier to fix them. I'm tired of search in google because i just find solved problems for Ubuntu and it takes a lot of time.

I'm trying to convert a 3gp (mobile phone video) file to PAL DVD format (which is I believe MPEG2 video and one of a few audio choices, in an MPEG PS container). But while the file plays fine in mplayer and vlc, my efforts to convert it, using either VLC or devede, always seem to result in either the converted video being speed up (noticeably, we're talking twice as fast or so not 5%), or in the audio going mickey-mouse. How can I get the file converted correctly? Bearing in mind it needs to be PAL not NTSC (so a lot of stuff I might find online isn't going to work as-is)

I have a PDF File here with upright ("portrait" format) pages, and I want to convert it so that each page gets "split" in the middle and becomes two wide ("landscape" format) pages.
Something like "print multiple pages on one page", only reversed
Is there any way to do such a thing with CUPS or something?
I have the source file ONLY in PDF Format

Quad processor, huge RAM, and more disk space than he knows how to use. So he decided to make it a tri-boot machine. He is a Mac 'biggot' (don't we all have our preferences?) but has been developing plugins for Cinema 4-D so he wanted to be able to span the spectrum.At any rate, we were chatting and he mentioned that he would like to be able to 'see' his Linux (he is using Ubuntu) drive while booted up in his Mac system.
