Ubuntu :: Gwibber And Flickr And How Is It Supposed To Work
May 2, 2010
Has anyone had success with integration of Gwibber and Flickr and if you did how did you do it? The actual text I tried adding my flickr account to Gwibber in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx and in the end I am not sure if it works or not. There is a documented bug related to Gwibber and Flickr. [URL] Now I did check my screen name (which is naggobot) and I used that and also every other id I could imagine, including direct http link
[URL]
and yahoo email address that is tied to Flickr account. In the end I did manage to get some input to the Gwibber window from the Flickr account but that input was from photo stream of a contact of mine. So my question is has anyone had success of getting their photostream from Flickr to Gwibber? If you succeeded in this how did you do it i.e. what did you fill in to the user name field? Please be super accurate.

I'm finding the NetworkManager applet very confusing.When I start up at a new location I can use the "Connect to Other Network..." menu item to bring up the list of available networks, and I'd expect that by selecting one of these and clicking "Connect", then configuring and clicking OK, I'd get a connection. Instead the dialog just goes away and nothing else happens. Is something broken with NetworkManager, or am I misunderstanding how this is supposed to work?
By switching back and forth between NetworkManager and ifup I'm eventually able to establish a connection to a new access point, but it's been a painful process.I've also encountered a problem reported by others, where when my system fails to suspend/resume properly the /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state has NetworkingEnabled=false and I need to manually edit this before restarting networking... but that's a separate issue, and I can work around it with the manual edit (or just add a startup script to do this automatically).

I used to use Gwibber as social networks aggregator/client, but starting since last update (current version 3.1.0) it crashes miserably on both Fedora 14 and Fedora 15.
Gwibber team looks reluctant to provide any feedback on whether this shall be fixed in foreseeable future. Installing Gwibber from the last stable sources gives the same crash.

I've just upgraded to Lucid Lynx on my Asus Eee Netbook, with Notebook Remix installed. I wqs glad to see that Canonical integrated the gwibber client into the desktop environment, as this gives me better opportunities to use my Twitter account properly. Unfortunately, i can't run "Set up broadcast account" when clicking the "letter-applet" icon. When running gwibber from terminal, I get this code...

Is there any other program that will work with the taskbar applet other than gwibber? I tried using it, but the interface seems really vague to me and drives me nuts. At the same time, the taskbar applet (showing up under the mail icon), makes it much more integrated than just installing a random standalone application.

After a fresh installation of Ubuntu 10.10 I uninstalled empathy (im using skype). The empathy menu in the evolution indicator was gone after that.I also uninstalled gwibber. But the gwibber status indicator remains within the about-me panel... Uninstalling the gwibber package also removes the me-menu which I want to keep actually. Especially the shutdown/restart... part of it. See attachment.I know there is a shutdown panel-app...but its butt-ugly and it doesnt allow to logon/off.
In another thread I read that the gwibber status shouldnt be there if no account for it is configured... which it is not... I do use ubuntu-one though which is in the same menu... I saw that this issue was addressed at some bug report before, but not fixed yet...
Does anybody know a good workaround to get rid of the gwibber status in the panel while keeping the about me and the shutdown button?

I'm having serious problems uploading pictures and videos to Flickr and Facebook (only two sites I'm using, and I'm on Firefox) I've never had any problems uploading anything prior to installing Ubuntu. I already tried the FireUploader as well, but no matter what I try the uploads just run and run until they eventually time out. Is there any trick I can maybe use here to be able to upload some pictures again, finally?!

I have FC14 i686 on a IBM T42 laptop and installed adobe flash direct from adobe. Firefox seems to play ..... etc fine. However, if I try to use the flash photo uploader in facebook or flickr, it appears that the flash component crashses.
Firefox continues to run though - only flash crashes (the upload window disappears)
I have not updated firefox, just installed flash.

I'm using digikam 0.10.0 under openSUSE 11.2/KDE4.3. When trying to upload pictures to Flickr (i have an account and authorising the flickruploadr was successful) by using the export function I get a message saying (in German): Es ist ein Fehler aufgetreten (= error): Ungltiger Frob (=invalid frob).
- about the reason for this error
- what a frob is
- what needs to be tweaked in order to correct this

See screenshot attachment. I know there was going to be changes to GNOMES appearance, but I thought it was just moving Close/Maximize/Minimize to the other side. If the screenshot is correct I'll just adapt and move on, if not how do I fix it?

did a fresh install of 10.04 on the wife's laptop. But the visual feedback of the booting process in kind of weird. Here is what I experience: This is on a laptop with intel graphics card. cat /proc/fb prints inteldrm. Which one of these is 'Plymouth' or where in the above stages is it supposed to appear exactly? Isn't Plymouth supposed to give me a flicker-free booting experience from Grub - to - Desktop, atleast on Intel-based computers? How do I fix these flickers? I tried the FRAMEBUFFER=y fix and it only eliminated the blinking cursor but I still see the screen going black and flicker.

Running Natty Narwhol. IIRC, the F1 key was the "help" shortcut. Now F1 does nothing. Is F1 supposed to be the "help" shortcut key or has this changed?

I've upgraded to Kubuntu 10.10 but there is nothing in my system tray popping up telling me there are packages to upgrade (there are 83 btw!). What should be running? In control panel->software management->settings I can see I have "notify when updates are available" ticked, but I've not been notified of anything. What can I check or install to sort this out?

I have installed Vlc Media Player ... I use fedora14 when I want to run it, it says "VLC is not supposed to be run as root. Sorry. If you need to use real-time priorities and/or privileged TCP ports you can use vlc-wrapper (make sure it is Set-UID root and cannot be run by non-trusted users first)."
I found something that said: " configure --enable-run-as-root "
But this is my question that now that I have installed Vlc, what should I do? where should I do the configuration?

I have a script that takes a location and does something to them then creates new files in the supplied location. I was trying to get the script to create the location if it didn't exist, but i can't figure out why it won't work. Here's what i've got right now
Code:
#!/bin/bash
destdir=$1
[[ -z "$destdir" ]] && { echo "No destination parameter supplied, exiting"; exit 1; }
[[ ! -e "$destdir" ]] && { echo "$destdir does not exist, exiting"; exit 1; }
[code]....
when i run the first one, it works if the supplied folder exists. If i try with my modification with a name such as /media/place/Foo bar, it creates a folder called Foo in the supplied dir, and bar in the dir i'm in when i run the script. the -p flag on mkdir creates parent directories btw.

In System Monitor, under the "System" tab, my Processor and RAM is listed (including specs for each of these), but my Intel graphics card (4500) is not listed at all? I am experiencing some periodic screen flicker - could it be that the video card is not detected?

I don't mean this to be in any way a critical post but I've recently switched to Debian from numerious other distros because of it elidged stability and speed. However I'm using the stable version and frequently have to reboot for certain things to work and frequently multimedia based programs crash on me. I've installed the repo from debian-multimedia.org so I don't know if that's causeing any problems. It crashes on me multiple times a day. Now it's not the OS itself which is the problem I'm sure but more the software in the repos. However it was my udnerstanding that this software was pretty darn well tested.

Clients are not able to access FTP thru browser: ftp://IP.When you open it thru browser, it does not ask for a usename or password but shows a PUB diretory instead. I tried to telnet port 21 and shows that it is using VSFTP instead of Plesk's ProFtp.

I'm just coming from Ubuntu(don't hate me) and realized that there are no Nvidia drivers in the repos. I had trouble even getting the repos to respond on the live cd or after installation; is opensuse having network problems? I changed the repositories to the GA tech libraries because they are closer and now they work, However I can't get any Nvidia drivers to install. Now, I'm not a super linux guru that can fly around linux like super man, but I'm also not a newbie to linux. Or at least I think I'm not.
I need to get Nvidia drivers installed...what is the easiest way to do that, considering the URL... repo doesn't seem to want to connect either.I don't know what the deal is, but Internet is rather clumsy with opensuse or with KDE, I'm not sure yet.

how am I supposed to use this guide. The doc states different messages lengths and formats, as a programmer, how should I utilize these information?Just fyi, my question is a general qns and does not necessarily target to just using netxms, but could be any other opensource as well.

By default, when applications run, they are limited in the amount of RAM they are allowed to access right? Technically my VLC could not access memory addresses used by Chrome. But how is it possible for the operating system/compiler to mistakingly allow access to an address a code is not allowed. I know alot of 'exploits' and 'payloads' take advantage of this fact and create variables that take up too much space and 'overflow' into other addresses, but how does this actually happen?
Are some programs more prone to this than others? Does it matter in which language they are coded in? For example, I know C is allowed to play around with memory, while Java is not. Also, what are the advantages of this? What if someone wrote malicious code to access someplace in memory, what could they do? The only thing I can think of is passwords/keys stored in RAM.
PS I thought about putting this in Stack Overflow, but my question is much broader than just specifically related to a programming perspective. If I've placed it in the wrong place, I'm sorry.
