Ubuntu :: XF86 Broken In Totem?
May 11, 2011
When I first installed Ubuntu 10.04, my XF86 buttons worked perfectly with Totem. I could pause, stop, fast forward, etc with no problems. I would prefer to use VLC or something as my media player, but I could not figure out how to get these media buttons to work so I just stuck with Totem.
Well, within the last couple of weeks my XF86 buttons have run into some issues. If Totem is in the foreground, they all still work perfectly, but if Totem is minimized or not the focus window the buttons no longer interact with it in any way. My volume keys still control the system volume with no problems. If I am working in emacs and I press the play/pause button emacs will print the error "<XF86AudioPlay> is undefined". So I know that the system is getting the commands, but they aren't being sent to the right windows. Is this an X11 problem? gstreamer?

I have a desktop hooked up to a router and plugged into my TV. I like to run Totem and have videos running full screen on my TV. I would like to control that Totem using my laptop (connected to the same router over wifi). How would I go about doing that? I connected to my desktop using SSH and tried to send signals to Totem, but nothing worked. I tried using VNC, and that was ineffective as well.

HOW TO GET 3d with the XF86-ati-driver
install from source the 2.6.32-r2 kernel
upgrade Xorg-server to 2.17.999
install from git libDRM-2.4.17
install from git mesa-7.7
install from git the xf86-ati-driver-9999
unless you KNOW what you are doing dont do this, you will also have to recompile KDE/gnome ( so I guess you have to install that from git as well )ooo I forgot the reason why I posted this. Doing this is NOT worth it, I did it and when I went to play a 3d game it renders shadows poorly and some reflections are rendered upside down.If you want 3d accelleration with an ATI card, you MUST install the FGLRX proprietary driver.

I've installed 10.04 netbook on an old Fujitsu Amilo L1300 laptop, with an Intel i845 graphic card. As I know, it would run just OK with the 2.11.0 drivers, but i have no idea how to install that. I've downloaded the driver, and every package written on the page: [URL] At first I couldn't even ./configure the install, but now the configuration runs smoothly. However I cannot finish the make part, because it gives an error.
Quote:
sentor@laptop:~/Documents/xf86-video-intel-2.11.0$ make
make all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/sentor/Documents/xf86-video-intel-2.11.0'
Making all in uxa
[Code].....
I've been working on it for four days now, and as much as I'd love to continue it, I've run out of time.
Or if there's a way to use the 2.12.0 driver, then could somebody tell me how?

I have an ATI Radeon HD 4850 running on Arch Linux with the xf86-video-ati driver.
Is there any way to control the fan speed (from a conf. file, the command line, whatever) or should I change to the Catalyst driver?

I am modifying the the xf86-input-summa driver to work with my older Bitpad One digitizer (the Sketchpad uses a slightly different communication, two more bits resolution, etc), but i hve a problem building. I ran configure and it reported no errors, but when I make I get missing header files, like:
xf86Summa.c:33:25: error: xf86Version.h: No such file or directory
xf86Summa.c:122:24: error: xf86Config.h: No such file or directory
xf86Summa.c:124:24: error: atKeynames.h: No such file or directory
[code]....

I've been trying to fix this problem for quite a few days now and have done a lot of searching on these forums, Linux Mint Forums and some others Google lead me to and have has some success, but am now stuck.I have posted a thread on this same topic on the Linux Mint Forums, but have had no success (if you want check it out at:URL...Originally I received error messages when trying to update involving certain repositories which couldn't be accessed (because they either didn't exist or had been moved) and I hunted these down and changed or removed them.
I have done much searching, etc. and cannot find any broken packages. I have tried many many different commands which have mostly done nothing.I seem to be in a similar boat to this person: URL...

I was having a problem with a fresh 11.04 install and the VPN software I use for work. I found the fix was to upgrade the software, so I downloaded an RPM, converted it to .deb and installed it via dpkg. The install worked and the VPN software now works, but Package Manager says I have a broken package and wants to 'upgrade' to the older broken one. How can I fix this without breaking my VPN SW again?

I've edited the default file list association; sudo gedit/etc/gnome/defaults.list replacing all the totem.desktop with vlc.desktop (ctrl+H). however I don't understand how but VLC opens only certain files such as .flac, .wmv but not .mp3, .avi

i have movie player (totem) and as an alternate vlc. both will play store bought encrypted dvds very well etc. however, movie player when on "videos" for instance will frequently flag the search operation with one/ two of the following:
"error looking up uri/ cannot resolve host name" or
"error looking up video uri"
automount failed: mount point for
org.gtk.vfs; mountpoint.http already running" or
"an error occurred location not found"
it is difficult to clear and unstick these red flags. audio from rhythmbox music player is awesome. what dependent file or plug-in am i lacking or need to delete?

I installed my DVB-T board and I can watch TV using VLC and my channels.conf file. I saved a copy of channels.conf as ~/.gstreamer-0.10/dvb-channels.conf but when I start Totem (GStreamer ed.), I don't see a "Watch TV" option under the "Movie" menu.

I have a dual monitor configuration. Monitor one is the embedded Seiko panel on my laptop (resolution = 1920X1200). Monitor two is an emachines something-or-other (resolution = 1440X900).
I am running 64-bit Ubuntu 10.10 on a Dell XPS M1530.
Graphics card is an NVidia 8600M GT.
When I log in to my account, the first thing that I do is activate the external monitor.
If I try to launch Totem (Movie Player) from the dock, I encounter an X screen error where the output on my laptop's screen reflects that of the external monitor, resolution and all. Because the external monitor is at a lower resolution, this takes up only a portion of the embedded screen; the rest of the space looks like the output has been tiled.
Here is a screenshot:Screenshot.jpg
If I close Totem and reconfigure my monitors (I usually just change the resolution on the embedded screen from Auto to 1920x1200), then I'm back to the proper output.
If I try to launch Totem after I have reconfigured my monitors, I do not encounter the same problem. If I log out and log back in, the problem can be reproduced.

I just upgraded to 11.04 and I'm having problem with Totem.
When I load a movie it crashes, and prints this message to the terminal code...
I tried to remove and install it again but it wasn't fixed.
This problem did not occur in 10.10.
What can I do?

Thought I would post this up here, because I've been searching for a solution, and not found one online:Problem description When playing both .mp4 and .rm files, the sound played fine, but the display remained black.
Solution Open the Configuration Editor (run gconf-editor in the terminal). Navigate to system > gstreamer > 0.10 > default, double-click on videosink and change the setting from autovideosink to ximagesink

Whenever I'm playing a video in Totem, if I use the navigation bar thing to go to a different time in the video, the video output freezes. Audio continues, but video stops. If I pause the video first, then use the navigation thing, then click play again, it works fine. Same happens for music; the visualizer freezes if I drag the navigation thing.
Edit: If I put it on repeat, when the video or music repeats the video output freezes also.

I was able to watch videos that had h.264, but now I can't. when I play the same video from before, it tells me I don't have the codec installed, but when I try to have it installed:
"No packages with the requested plugins found"
is it something I'm missing in the repository?

So there's just one DVD (Narnia) that won't play on my Ubuntu machine using Totem: other DVDs play (I've installed libdvdread4 and libdvdcss2 like a good boy) and non-pulseaudio players like VLC play it properly. If I completely remove and kill pulseaudio, it plays in totem fine. It gets to the language selection screen and I select English, but as soon as any sound is involved it doesn't play. Clicking Go --> DVD menu causes Totem to hang. I don't want to be uninstalling pulseaudio, and VLC player is a bit complex for the mother.
The output of totem:
Code:
marcus@margit-laptop:~$ totem
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.10 for DVD access
libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 4.1.3
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.10 for DVD access
libdvdnav: DVD Title:
libdvdnav: DVD Serial Number: 43D1F9FE (GEAR):
libdvdnav: DVD Title (Alternative):
libdvdnav: Unable to find map file '/home/marcus/.dvdnav/.map' .....
marcus@margit-laptop:~$
Note that before the last line, Totem does absolutely nothing. It just sits their. Like it's trying to devour my soul or something.

I recently upgraded to 10.10 and installed ktorrent at the same time. After the upgrade whenever I try to open up and file or folder for that matter totem tries to open them. Totem is acting like the default app for all the files on my computer. I tried uninstalling an reinstalling both totem and ktorrent and I still have the same problem.

When I try playing DVD's in Media Player/Totem the video is choppy and does not sync with the audio. When I started looking at it in detail I see Totem is using up 95% of the CPU which kind of explains it doesn't it. But it still shouldn't be doing this. I then tried the same DVD's using Gnome Media Player and all is fine, perfect video/audio and normal CPU usage.

I've made it my new years resolution to sort out my video collection
I know totem can create a png montage with the frames of a video, however, I've only been able to create one at a time. If i told you i have 621 videos to deal with, you can understand why im asking this question.
Is there anyway in which i can script this, so i can can do the entire directory, name the png the title of the film while my pc is doing nothing?, I've looked at the "man" for totem, and there doesnt seem to be anything in there.
Or alternatively, suggest alternate software, which can do the whole thing without scripting?! I've already looked at GframeCapture, but that doesn't do it also.
