After launching the gnome-keyring-demon my mounted mp3-player is no longer accessible. In /var/log/messages I get the message "gnome-keyring-demon removes usb device". As long as the gnome-keyring-demon is running, I cant not remount the device though it is visible using lsusb. I'm running an FC12 system.

System update v3.21 will disable the console's "Install Other OS" feature, which allowed users to install the Linux operating system. The feature is currently only available in PlayStation 3 models released prior to the "slim" redesign that launched in September 2009. The update will go live on April 1. SCEA's corporate communications director Patrick Seybold notes on the PlayStation Blog the feature is being removed due to "security concerns."
"In addition, disabling the "Other OS" feature will help ensure that PS3 owners will continue to have access to the broad range of gaming and entertainment content from SCE and its content partners on a more secure system," Seybold wrote. Those who use Linux can choose not to upgrade, however, Sony lists several features that will no longer be available: Ability to sign in to PlayStation Network and use network features that require signing in to PlayStation Network, such as online features of PS3 games and chat Playback of PS3 software titles or Blu-ray Disc videos that require PS3 system software version 3.21 or later.Playback of copyright-protected videos that are stored on a media server (when DTCP-IP is enabled under Settings) Use of new features and improvements that are available on PS3 system software 3.21 or later."For those PS3 users who are currently using the "Other OS" feature but choose to install the system software update, to avoid data loss they first need to back-up any data stored within the hard drive partition used by the "Other OS," as they will not be able to access that data following the update," Seybold added.
I found a nice script and modified it abit, but now when I run conky. My icons on the desktop gets invisible, and only display if I hover them.
Here is my conky config:

The apt-get autoremove command, I use Debian 8 for some time now and I often install a package, test it for some minutes and remove it then. I noticed that in most cases (if not all, I'm not completely sure) all the dependencies that were installed with the package (mostly libraries, of course) stay installed on the system when I remove the package.
And there is no output of apt-get that there are unnecessary pacakges which I can remove with apt-get autoremove. The autoremove command does nothing.Before I changed to Debian, I used Ubuntu and there all the dependencies are removed with apt-get autoremove when I uninstalled a package.My question is now, is this normal? if there are fundamental differences in which packages "autoremove" removes between Debian and Ubuntu?
I try to do a function which removes '#' from beginning of line. But if there is not '#' then add it on beginning of line. I try something like this, can you correct me?
Code:
awk '
!/^#/{ sub(/^[^#]*/,"#$0","'$line'")
}
/^#/{ sub(/#/,"","'$line'")
}'
Previous installation (11.1) left boot manager intact and I had three options on menu. Windoze, OS/2 and Opensuse. They all worked and if I selected Opensuse I then got a Grub boot screen with normal options from which I could start opensuse as usual.
New installation of 11.3 I selected MBR option but think I must have left grub as the boot method. I now boot into the grub screen but if I select OS/2 there is only Windoze left on menu and no OS/2.
What should I use to put back the booting to how it was? Can I use opensuse program to do it or should I use OS/2 partition manager?
I have a hard drive with the following layout:
I want to delete the first two partitions (a 243 MB Linux swap partition and a 5.87 GB root partition). Problem is, every time I deleted them, Windows would also delete Drive G: and H:, leaving only drive F: intact. Deleting the two Linux partitions using GParted from a Live CD also gave the same result. I've attempted this multiple times now and, after each attempt, TestDisk always managed to recover all the deleted partitions.
Any ideas on how to delete these two partitions without affecting the rest?
Eventually, does this program already exist for bash/console ?

So this:

And the windows part is also broken:

If I add an extra character at the end of the line it get removed instead and then it works. But only until next time the grub.cfg is auto updated. The error is only there when booting. Reading the file every character is in there.

Here are some example files that are shared through samba:
-rwxrwx--- user1 group1 file1.txt
-rwxrwx--- user1 group1 file2.txt
When user2 (who is also a member of group1) edits file2.txt the permissions change:
-rwxrwx--- user1 group1 file1.txt
-rwxrw---- user2 group1 file2.txt
user1 then has issues opening the file. This also goes for new files that are created (they are missing the group execute permission).
I have set the option "create mask = 0770" in my smb.conf. Without this set, permissions default to something like -rwxr--r--
I'm still fairly new to linux so i'm just learning as i go. I'm sure i've seen a program that cleans up and removes downloaded items that are never used/damaged.
As my linux installation is filling up rapidly and i haven't even moved my files from windoze yet.
I've configured my RHEL system to be used as tftp server. I've configured NFS,VSFTPD and DHCP too. Everything works fine, the clients are able to boot from PXE and get the kickstart information from the server and the installation completes successfully. Now the problem is the RHEL installation removes all the existing windows partitions. How do I make my system a dual boot? I've configured my kickstart to use "Remove existing Linux Partitions" and the problem still persists.

I know PHP auto removes stale sessions on it's own, but that doesn't remove them from the MYSQL table. So I was gonna make a cron script that ran once every hour that removed any MYSQL shopping cart item from the table if the original session_id that created it does not exist anymore.
From my understanding a session_id is an "actual" file located somewhere on the harddisk (is it not? correct me if I'm wrong), so I was going to do a simple check for each item in the shopping cart to check for it's original session file, if it didn't exist on the harddisk, then simply remove it from the mysql table.
When sending an HTML formatted email with KMail and viewing this email on an MS Exchange Outlook client, all the empty lines are removed. This appears to be a known issue (KMail & HTML. - KDE Community Forums), but I was hoping anyone here knows a workaround for this....?
This is REALLY annoying when using KMail in a business setting, since emails look embarrassing on a customer's email client (which is in 99% of the cases Outlook, I'm afraid).
Older machine here that I upgraded to 10.04 after a clean install of 9.10 some months ago. When booting into GNOME, the desktop image flashes on the screen and the second the bars on top and bottom try to appear the system boots out of the desktop and returns to the log on screen. I assume this is a crash of Xserver, but just guessing. Per another page I ran: lspci | grep VGAand returned:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. KM400/KN400/P4M800 [S3 UniChrome] (rev 01)
I know - old machine Typing this from failsafe mode, would be great to hear from someone as to what I can do to get this working in normal mode again.
When i logged into a gnome desktop i got this message: "The GNOME session manager was unable to read file:'/home/(desktop name)/ICEauthority'. If this file exists it must be readable by you for GNOME to work properly. try logging in with failsafe session and removing the file." What commands do i use for that? or do i need to do something else?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have installed Ubuntu 9.10 on my Dell GX240. I have severe difficulty logging in. If I try to login on GNOME or GNOME fail safe mode , I just cant get in . I keep getting the login screen again. I am able to go into terminal mode. Sometimes I have to try upto 100 times to login in GNOME or failsafe mode. Once I am in everything is fine. Is there a way to do some troublshooting? Also transfer to USB sticks is very slow - sometimes as slow as 1MB per min. Is this normal with Ubuntu?

With Gnome 2.28 it doesn't occurs. Then ii seems a gnome 2.3 problem.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm currently building a ubuntu distro and would like to run a script on GNOME startup. I've read about doing it through the session manager but I have to do it through chroot so I'll need to set it up as a terminal command. Is there a way to add an item to the Session Manager from terminal or, even better, a directory where I can put the script so it will run on start?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have avant-window-navigator in my startup appplications. This apparently causes gnome to use the Gnome icon theme on boot, instead of the Humanity theme I selected in Preferences->Appearance. I just have to go to Preferences-Appearance again to get the Humanity theme back to work (I don't even have to change any settings, just going there is enough.) When I remove awn from my startup applications, this problem doesn't occur.

I have a verizon usb760 internet modem (I'm pretty sure it's 3G), will it work "out of the box" with Fedora Graphically wise, what are the differences between gnome/kde in Fedora, than in gnome/kde in Ubuntu? How stable is Fedora 14? I have a 8gb flash drive that I want to put Fedora on to install it rather than a cd, will that work? And the last, does Fedora have a live cd feature like Ubuntu so I can try it before I install?
Or would you have the option of a GNOME 2 session in addition to a GNOME 3 session? Do you think Ubuntu will to officially adopt GNOME 3 when it's released?
View 7 Replies View RelatedPlease excuse my ignorance, but I need to get it straight. I've been reading and trying to find out more about these three new desktop environments, but still am rather confused. I have had Unity on my netbook for a couple of months now and know it inside out (more or less by now). The problem is: what is the main difference between Gnome 3 and Gnome Shell?
To my understanding Gnome 3 will be a continuation of the panelled Gnome we are so used to? But then I read the panels will be gone forever, so I'm confused again Gnome Shell is somewhat similar-looking to Unity, but I haven't had a chance to try it properly yet.
Seeing this on two systems that went through F13-F14 upgrade.
version: gnome-applets-2.32.0-1.fc14.x86_64
symptom: via right click on a gnome panel, perform "add to panel" and choose Dwell Click.
Gnome panel bites the dust with SIGSEGV at this point, restarts, and then you've got dwell click on the panel.
Anyone else seeing this, and better yet, have a solution?
