Ubuntu Multimedia :: Error - Object Reference Not Sent To An Instance Of An Object
Mar 6, 2010I've been using the PPA version of banshee, and I got this error - just wondering if anyone else has it too! I'm able to play a song, but when the song finishes and the next one starts I get this error: Banshee Encountered a Fatal Error Object reference not sent to an instance of an object Error details:

Programming :: Object To Represent An Object Of Different Types?
Mar 1, 2010Only ones I can think of seem overly complex, and I'm sure there is a simple solution I am overlooking. I have a class, it has a member who is an object. This object needs to be able to represent an object of different types.
[code]...
Where "surface" could be several different types, which will be set during execution. Hope this is clear enough. I have tried using templates but am getting "data member cannot be a member template". Either I have incorrect syntax, or am not implementing it right. another solution would have one class containing definitions of all possible shapes, But this would take up extra memory. Other solutions I thought of seem too round-about, and seems there is a simpler solution that I have overlooked.
Ubuntu :: Can't See Amazon's Look Inside
Jun 22, 2010I am not able to access Amazon's Look Inside - the facility to inspect a few pages of books. (I have never been able to do this.) I have tried both at work (via a direct connection to a high-speed backbone) and at home (via Sky ISP). I can see the cover of the book but nothing beyond that - it says the page has expired or is invalid. But using Firefox on WinXP, I can access Look Inside happily both at home and at work.
Does anyone else have this problem with Ubuntu? Amazon's technical people just sent me a load of flannel blaming my ISP, my software, etc. They say no one else has raised this.
If somebody could try it and let me know, I'd be grateful for the results. Am I missing a plug-in?
Lucid + Firefox 3.6.3 on both sites

Feb 22, 2011I've got Fedora 14 running on an EBS volume on Amazon EC2. I've created a few users and enabled port 22. When I set a password for these users, they can successfully ssh into the instance; even if they logout and login again....until:
If I reboot the machine, they can no longer ssh into the machine (permission denied). If I issue the passwd <user> command and change their passwords, they can login again....until I reboot the machine at which time they cannot login again until I change their passwords. The problem exists even from the machine. That is, if root attempts to ssh into 127.0.0.1 using their username/password, the same problem/resolution exists.
OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Using The Amazon MP3 Downloader On 11.2?
Dec 1, 2009has anyone been successful in using the Amazon MP3 downloader on 11.2? It does no longer work because it wants specific (old) versions of libboost*:
[krienke@bliss:~/tmp] 1001 > /usr/bin/amazonmp3
/usr/bin/amazonmp3: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_filesystem.so.1.36.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[krienke@bliss:~/tmp] 1002 > locate libboost_filesystem
/usr/lib/libboost_filesystem-mt.so
/usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.so
/usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.so.1.39.0
I notified Amazon about this, and they said they do not know if or when there will be a running version of the MP3 downloader available and without it there is no way to download any MP3 from Amazon. They gave me back my money and recommended to buy elsewhere....
Does anyone know if installing the old version of libboost (from 11.1) will work? What else, aside from amazons downloader, does use libboost*? So what app might fail if I install the old version of libboost suitable for the downloader?

My website just uses php and mysql, so thats all i'll need. If you have any other tips on this,

Ubuntu Security :: Unusual Traffic From Amazon EC2 Cloud Server
May 1, 2011Last night my old Sony Vaio laptop which connects via wired Ethernet and runs Ubuntu 10.10 started hammering the network out onto the Internet. Fired up Wireshark and found lots of traffic between my machine and 174.129.193.12 which I did a whois on and found belonged to Amazon EC2 Cloud Server. The port on my machine was an unknown 5000+ but the port on the remote system was 443 the port used by https, however no browser was running. Did a search and put together a couple of iptable commands to block this IP address which stopped the traffic. I then used nmap and netstat and found port 3000 open and another connection to IP address 91.189.89.76 which I also blocked. Unusually no info exists on this IP when you do a whois. At first I thought it might be some sort of sync as this machine has Ubuntu One running on it, however it could also be something else.

Optimally, I am looking for a solution that will allow me to simply set up an rsync script or similar that would sync up a folder to a cloud drive every few days. Maybe their S3 tools can be used to do this?

General :: Mail Server On Amazon Web Services?
Mar 10, 2010We have our web site hosted by Go daddy and they provide us with the mail service as well. But there are a lot of constraints with the mail service with regards to the number of mail boxes, size per box, relays per user and so on.To avoid this, we are looking at other options. One is to have our own mail server but it will require a lot of infrastructure and expertise. But Amazon web services looks nice. They have infrastructure needed and all. One thing on my mind is the reverse look up of the mail servers. They wont be associated with the domain as both would be on different hostings. I am open to both windows exchange server as well as Linux server. Has anyone done this before or has any idea about it? I have gone through some of the threads in their forum and there are a lot of mixed views about it.And main concern everyone views is the reverse lookup. This could lead to all the mails sent from my server tagged as spam at the recipient end.I could not make out in which forum to write and hence in newbie. If this is enough about networking or server please move it.
View 9 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Using Amazon Kindle To Reference Documenation?
Apr 4, 2011I do a bit of programming and tinkering with Linux so I have to refer to documentation a lot. As a result my eyes do get sore when reading through documentation on PC. Another problem is when tinkering and something goes wrong, either with Ubuntu crashing or loss of internet connection, I can't get access to the relevant document to fix it. Because of these, I was thinking of getting an e-reader, in particular, an Amazon Kindle as it is the only one I've seen sold locally as I don't like buying electronic goods online as it is a hassle with shipping if anything goes wrong.
I would like some advice. Is the Kindle worth having to view documentation and tutorials? Is it easy to reference relevant material through it's search facilities? Most important of all, can it connect to (Ubuntu) Linux through a usb port?
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Replace Amazon MP3 Artist Tags With Composer Information?
Mar 28, 2011I recently downloaded several MP3 albums from Amazon. Most of these albums contain works from several different composers. The problem is, the Rhythmbox music player in Ubuntu Maverick won't display composer tags. I am therefore searching for a way to overwrite the artist tag of each file with the composer info. This overwriting would need to be a batch process.
Let's say that I have an album of the New York Philharmonic performing works of a dozen different composers.I would like for the correct composer to overwrite New York Philharmonic in each file. Is it possible to use a program such as EasyTag do what I need? Please provide detailed instructions and/or a link to such details.

Jul 7, 2011I hope we'll understand well. So - i'm offering to earn few dollars for few hours of Your time doing something quite interesting. From long time all my activities connected with computers are painful because me eyes are becoming tired very fast, which cause headache and generally make work impossible.
Cure for my problems is e-ink, im in possesion of Amazon kindle 3 now and it's beyond awesome for me. I've checked a lot of sites and keywords about ' e-ink monitor ', or desktop display, or using e-ink reader as computer display - and at this moment there isn't single device od market with such a function, but a lot of prototypes.
I've found also, that almost all e-ink readers are functioning on linux. My knowledge about linux is less than none, but some people written, that it should be possible to somehow make kindle a display for pc by making some linux operations on both
devices. What i'm asking You is not:- informing me about disadvantages of e-ink display, framerates, movies, speed and any other things, i don't care about any of those at all
- informing me about some crap imitations of e-ink like pixel qi, anything which isn't exactly e-ink is in my book worth nothing in terms of comfortable work with text.What i'm really asking is someone that will seriously try to make amazon kindle a monitor/display for netbook/notebook/pc. I'm really not geek at all, so i will not understand any of details, i'm asking someone to do it - and write precise, step by step guide for me which will tell me what i should do to use my kindle as computer display.
It may need change of OS, it may cause lose of data, it doesn't matters - what i need is fully operational internet browser with mouse and keyboard - on e-ink. So kindle attached to any kind of pc/netbook as display will be great. If task need some changes with hardware, or inside device - i can buy the one that You will modify from You after i will see pictures as proof that it works. If someone will help me - i will pay. It's quite hard for me to somehow ' prove it here ' - but i just will, we will work out Your fee and other details.
Server :: Clustering Mail Servers (CentOS/Amazon EC2)?
Feb 23, 2011I'm looking to set up a clustered mail server, I kind-of know how I'm going to do it but wanted to check if there was a better way. So we have 3 mail servers, running as EC2 instances on Amazon AWS. We were going to achieve clustering by giving all three a shared EBS storage device to store the mail. The mail would be received by any of the three servers (Via postfix) and could be retrieved from any of the three servers (via dovecot). For receiving mail (SMTP), the domains would have 3 MX records pointing to each of the servers but for sending and retrieving mail (SMTP and POP3/IMAP) the three servers would have one DNS A record with 3 IPs associated (I know when using this method for web-servers, the load gets distributed among the IPs under that record but I'm not sure if this will work for SMTP/POP3/IMAP).
What we want is to have 3 servers that share the load equaly but are completely redundant for all services (POP3, IMAP and SMTP). We also need to be able to scale upwards so if we need to add more servers we can do easily. Also the servers must be perfectly synchronized at all times.
