Ubuntu Multimedia :: Bluetooth A2dp Refuses To Work

Nov 13, 2010

So I've searched all over the web and followed every bit of instruction that I could. I get bluetooth manager to detect my phone and it pairs up without any problem. Even when I set it up to connect to play streaming music from the phone it links up but I hear nothing from the speakers. Of course, in pulseaudio I do see "Internet Phone", but there's no way I can edit it. And whenever I try to do this step, I get a failure

Now we need to tell PulseAudio that your Bluetooth headset exists:

*
pactl load-module module-alsa-sink device=btheadset
pactl load-module module-alsa-source device=btheadset

Failure: Module initalization failed

Ubuntu Networking :: WG111v2 Refuses To Work In 9.10?

Apr 25, 2010

I replaced a broken WinXP install with Ubuntu 9.10 x32 on my kids PC and the install and OS itself seems to be fine. When connecting the Netgear WG111v2 USB dongle so that they can get internet access things aren't so good. Firstly the startup and shutdown of the machine get big pauses (around 2 minutes at a time) and there are also big pauses and a general slowdown of the machine while in use that doesn't happen with the dongle disconnected. I wouldn't mind that so much but I can't get the damn thing to connect under ubuntu to our home network. I left an old Win2k partition intact on the machine and I'm glad I did as it means that I've been able to install the drivers to make sure that it all works under Windows, which it does.

It probably makes little difference but the light on the dongle is off for the majority of the time and only lights up briefly on seemingly random occasions. Also, I have no entries for Network Manager in my menus, and the system tray applet doesn't give me the options and tabs that are mentioned in some peoples posts in this forum (ie I can't change the computer name for example), sometimes the system tray applet disappears altogether.

With the dongle attached typing lsusb into the terminal sometimes shows just the USB hubs and sometimes also shows an entry with the WG111 included (and sometimes with big pauses). nm-tool sometimes shows just the motherboard NIC (disconnected), sometimes the WG111 too (also disconnected) and sometimes it just throws up several error messages with pauses between each one. dmesg showed an entry for the dongle on the occasion that I tried it.

Ubuntu :: LAMP: Mod_rewrite, Imagick Refuses To Work In One Folder?

Feb 19, 2011

I have ubuntu 10.10. I installed apache2 Php mysql and phpmyadmin through the package handler. it worked after that I instaled Imagemagick , and imagick for PHP. than I installed mod_rewrite for appache2. I created a folder in /var/www/ called shimmie. I copied there my codes and after setting up htaccess it worked fine. url rewrite worked. thumbnails with imagick appeared along with normal images. Yesterday I got another webpage project. but it required apache mod_ expires and mod_headers and installed it. And installed Xdebug for PHP. after this I put the webpage to another /var/www/ folder called fashion. Now in fashion everything works as its needs to: url rewrite , expires.. everything. But now my original folder shimmi, doesnt works: no url rewrite, no imagick thumbnails nor the original image shows up.

the folder belongs to my user and set is that every thing can read it and write it.

EDIT: I even copied the shimmie folder toa new and still didnt work, so i re created it... and still doesn't work.... why is thats the only thing that cant use .htacces and imagick?

Fedora :: Sfdisk Refuses To Work - Says Sda Is Busy ?

Feb 26, 2010

I have 2 HDs, an old one with LVM (sda) with two partitions, sda1 and sda2, and the new one without LVM (sdb). I want to format the old sda device. I tried with sfdisk, but it says that the sda is busy:

But there is no call in /etc/fstab to sda, I did a /sbin/swapoff -a, and this is the output of df:

lsof tells me no one is using sda, sda1 or sda2.

So, why does sfdisk refuse to work?

OpenSUSE :: GNOME-Shell Refuses To Work After Full Reinstall

May 13, 2011

I have recently been pulling my hair out with Gnome-Shell. I had Gnome3 including the shell up and running as soon as it was ready in the stable repos. However it recently refused to work after the update to 3.0.1 hit the stable repository. Today I did a complete reinstall of OpenSUSE 11.4 from the gnome desktop CD, NVIDIA drivers are correctly installed and working. Gnome3 has been installed via the one-click method on top of this FRESH install. Yet still my gnome-shell freezes after login, I am running in fallback mode now. Really cannot see what can have gone wrong this time, nothing out of the ordinary has been knowingly installed at all. I'd really love to get my desktop up and running to how it used to be.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: XBMC Refuses To Update Correctly?

Jan 6, 2010

28/12/2009 I installed Ubuntu minimal AMD64 and followed the following guide to install it as an HTPC using XBMC. Note that that date was after XBMC's 9.11 official release.[URL]...give and take really minor adaptions, since the guide is not entirely 1 on 1. The process installed XBMC Beta 1 though.

Now, when I do:
- sudo apt-get update / upgrade
The result is:
Code:
The following packages have been kept back:

[Code]...

libsdl1.2debian-alsa: Conflicts: libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio but 1.2.13-4ubuntu4 is to be installed.libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio: Conflicts: libsdl1.2debian-alsa but 1.2.13-4ubuntu4 is installed. sudo aptitude -> g -> results in a list of 45 files which will be automatically removed. Some of these are libvdpau1, pkg-config, pmount, xinit, xserver-common, xserver-xorg, *-core, *-input-all, *-evdev, *-mouse, *-synaptics etc. A lot of which are needed as aptitude reports by the package xbmc-common, which I suppose XBMC needs to operate.

I do not want to "autoremove". I did that before and that resulted in having a corrupted system and hence the new installation of 28/12. Any idea what is wrong? Why wasn't the official release installed and was Beta1 chosen instead? Why does Aptitude propose to have all these necessary packages deleted? And of course, why am I not able to upgrade to XBMC's latest and final version? How can I?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Rhythmbox Refuses To Fast-forward?

May 23, 2010

I just(4 hours ago at this writing) installed 10.04 LTS LL on my Toshiba Satellite. I transfered a few albums from my external HDD, to my laptop, and opened Rhythmbox. First, as usual with a new install, I had to dl Gstreamer, and some other plugins, to allow the program to properly play mp3's. This was done with no problems, of any kind, but I then found that, once a song began to play, I was unable to skip ahead in the track.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Cheaponasto Card Which Refuses To Play Ball With The Kernel?

Debian Multimedia :: Gnome-terminal Refuses To Open

Jan 30, 2015

I updated my Jessie system today. Nothing crucial in the apt-get list as far as I can see, perhaps it's unrelated. Anyway, now I cannot open the terminal any longer. Launching `gnome-terminal` shows the app name in the menu bar, a spinning wheel, and then after a few seconds nothing. It doesn't appear in the list of processes, either. I can still log into the text shell via ctrl-alt-F1.

I also added `LC_TIME="en_GB.UTF-8"` to `/etc/environment` to get rid of the American date format. Could it be the cause? I just tried to launch the terminal from the JVM. I get this output:

Code: Select all(process:2629): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gnome.Terminal: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.gnome.Terminal exited with status 8

I will delete the environment variable again and reboot, but I wonder if I can still have the British date format?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: HIDPoint - Refuses To Install Properly In 10.04 - Error While Loading Shared Libraries

May 18, 2010

Bought a lovely new Logitech MX3200 keyboard recently, didn't expect to be able to use all the media keys on it. I was surprised, then, when I discovered HIDPoint, some software for configuring the hotkeys on many Logitech keyboards, and more surprised when I saw that mine was on the supported devices list. Anyway, HIDPoint is only available for up to Ubuntu 9.10, and refuses to install properly in 10.04.Here is the output when I try to run the installer:

Debian Multimedia :: Compiz Refuses To Auto Start Properly (with Gnome)

Apr 16, 2011

How to get compiz to auto-start. What seems to be the generally accepted method (from what a few google searches and the debian wiki tell me) of using gconf-editor and changing the window manager from 'gnome-wm' to 'compiz' in desktop > gnome > session > required_components doesn't change anything. The only method I found that did not involve using a terminal and running 'compiz --replace' every time I boot the computer was to add compiz and fusion-icon to the gnome startup apps, but this causes unwanted flickering (it starts metacity and then replaces it with compiz, ie it's simply automating what I would do with the terminal). Autostarting the fusion-icon alone does not start compiz, although it allows me to start it from it's menu if I right click the icon. Note that I sometimes use fluxbox as well, so starting it on boot isn't really an option either.

Perhaps this can be useful :
compiz:
Installed: 0.8.4-4
Candidate: 0.8.4-4
gnome-session:
Installed: 2.30.2-3
Candidate: 2.30.2-3

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Skype - Pulseaudio - Sound Output Or Input Does Not Work At All Doesn't Work

Sep 11, 2010

When I installed my 64 bit system of Ubuntu 10.04 the sound worked very well and I were very happy. The problem started however when I installed Skype which uses pulseaudio. As soon as I start skype (or any other application that uses pulse, HoN for example) the applications sound output or input does not work at all. If I have pulseaudio started in some way, applications that I suppose do not use it like spotify or flash player stops to produce sounds. And when I type "pulseaudio" in the terminal it gives me this:

Ubuntu :: GRUB Refuses To Appear After XP Install?

Jan 17, 2011

I've been running Maverick for a while now, and I decided to use the extra (unallocated, don't worry) space on my hd to install XP. After I installed XP I realized that I didn't get GRUB, so I couldn't boot Ubuntu. I tried fixing it using this, but to no avail. The only thing that happens now is that my computer boots up normally, but where GRUB would usually be, I now see a black screen. This is getting to be VERY aggravating.

Also, which partition should be flagged as boot? currently I have my Maverick partition flagged as boot because it has a boot directory. Should I not have any partition flagged as boot?

Ubuntu :: Updated And Refuses To Boot?

Feb 12, 2010

I have been using Ubuntu Netbook remix for a while and have been pretty happy with it. Over the weekend, the software did a typical update, and the next time I started the computer it goes straight to the GRUB command line. On the same day, I installed ATanks, so I am not sure which caused the problem, but I really don't see the game causing a problem with the boot loader.Installed through Wubi.v. 9.10Dual boot w/Windows; no problems booting until now.I do not know which updates were installed and cannot boot into Ubuntu to find out.At the GRUB command prompt, I tried to boot, but it did not load anything other than vmlinuz; when i searched to make sure I entered the correct partition (/dev/hda2), I noticed that, well, there were no partitions in /dev

Ubuntu :: Vista Refuses To Boot After Installing 9.10?

Apr 24, 2010

I've used Windows Vista and Windows XP for quite a while before I decided to swap XP for Ubuntu (mainly for the performance). After formatting the drive, where XP was, and installing Ubuntu 9.10 I've discovered that I can't boot into my Vista any more. I used to use a Windows 7 boot loader to switch between Vista and XP (I had Windows 7 installed before Windows Vista) and now it's gone.

I've tried to boot using the GRUB2 that Ubuntu 9.10 uses but I failed. At first it gave me a "no such partition" error whenever I tried to boot it, but after some changes I managed to get it to go in to some sort of a black screen. But it's as far as it goes.

I have also tried to repair the Windows boot with a recovery disc. Unfortunately I get a "The volume does not contain a recognised file system." error whenever I try to import the bcd.temp file using bcdedit.exe

I really need Vista back up since it has PhotoShop on it and all other things that I need in order to continue working on my schoolwork, which has to be done in a couple of days.

Ubuntu :: Opera 10.60 Refuses To Start From KDE Menu

Jul 5, 2010

After upgrading to v10.60, Opera will not run from the KDE menu. A entry appears in the taskbar and then disappears without opening any window. The entry for Opera in KDE menu has this command:

Code:
/usr/bin/opera %u

If I open a terminal and type "opera" or navigate to /usr/bin and click on the opera script there, it starts up just fine. Seems like it should be simple to fix, but I have tried various entries in the KDE menu ("opera", "opera %u", "/usr/bin/opera") and this same behavior occurs with any of them.
