Ubuntu :: Nothing In Gwibber Works / Account Is Never Added To The List?
Jul 9, 2010Never really used Gwibber before and I'm rather lost here. Whatever I do I can't seem to get anything to actually work. I'm not getting any error messages, but my Gwibber window remains blank no matter how many accounts I'm adding...
Facebook - I click add "add", I select Facebook, I enter my details and they successfully authorize my account, but the account is never added to the list. After closing the accounts window it's completely gone.
Twitter - Click add just like with Facebook, enter my details and it's added to the list. When I close the accounts window it shows up to the left of my main screen like it's suppose to. I notice Gwibber is refreshing, but nothing appears! Completely blank screen, completely empty inbox. I can type an update, but when I click send it's just cleared. Nothing is updated and nothing appears on my Twitter profile.
I try entering a phony account and it's the same deal. No error messages, Gwibber is refreshing but nothing is appearing.
Flickr - All I can do here is to enter my username. I don't know what's suppose to show up in my inbox, but again, nothing. No error, no feedback, not messages... nothing.
Server :: Postfix - One Account Cannot Send / Receive Email (Other Works Fine)
Dec 7, 2010I just set up a new email server on Debian Lenny. It's Postfix for MTA and Dovecot for IMAPS server. I use Dovecot for authentication. I have two UNIX users on the system (except root), one was added before the installation of Postfix and Dovecot. I'm not doing any virtual things, just plain UNIX users and one domain on a dynamic IP. The first user, "webadmin" can send and receive emails just fine through the server from my mail client.
Now I just added a new user, "scarleo", and it turns out I'm unable to send and receive emails with this account. If I log in (SSH) with scarleo I can use bash mail to send emails, works fine. scarleo can also receive emails from webadmin and can connect to Dovecot to read emails. However scarleo cannot send or receive to or from anyone outside the server from my mail client. I have restarted both Postfix and Dovecot after adding the user. Do I have to do something else to make this account work like webadmin's?
A few relevant lines from mail.log: (I've modded my real IP)
Code:
Dec 7 17:44:42 homer dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<scarleo>, method=PLAIN, rip=96.136.112.229, lip=192.168.0.18, TLS

Ubuntu :: Blank Screen (ATI) On TV When It Works On Monitor?
Jul 31, 2011Natty install -- ATI 9800 is the video board.
I installed Natty on it with the machine hooked up to a Samsung LCD with a 1680x1050 resolution over DVI. No problems at all. I want the box to pretty much output MP3s and web video, so I'm not needing much. When I take the box and hook it via DVI to my LCD, I get a blank screen on boot up. I try sticking the natty CD in it, and I get a blank screen trying to live boot it too. The LCD doesn't do 1680x1050, so I brought it back to my Samsung and set the default resolution to something nice and safe: 1280x1024. Still the same behavior. When I take splash mode off, I see a "load fallback graphics devices fail" error as it is booting up. Hard for me to think the driver is the fault here when it works on my over LCD just fine.
Ubuntu :: Black Screen - Works On VGA To Monitor But Not On VGA To TV?
Jul 2, 2009I have this very frustrating problem... I'm trying to build a Linux-based HTPC (Home Theatre PC). I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty as the operating system, and it works fine when I have it connected to my 17" Samsung monitor. However, when I connect the HTPC to the TV via VGA I get a black screen after "startx" (I can access the console through recovery mode though). Ubuntu is running gnome, so I guess it's a gnome related problem?
I would have thought it was a problem with the drivers to graphics card, but since it's working on my 17" monitor I've ruled that out. The TVs resolution is 1024x768. What can be causing this? Apperently there's some difference between my monitor and my TV (forgetting the fact that it is indeed a TV, not a monitor), but what? I've previously run Windows on the same hardware without problems, and thought I should give Linux a shot. It doesn't look good...
Ubuntu Multimedia :: IMO Touch DisplayLink Monitor ALMOST Works?
Feb 14, 2010I've got the iMO mostly working, but there are a few gaps that keep it from being actually useful.First, the stuff that works: Gave up trying for one display with two screens, and instead went with 2 displays. Started the USB display with:
Code:
xinit /usr/bin/fluxbox -geometry 800x480+0+40 -display :1.0 -- /usr/bin/X :1 -novtswitch -sharevts -layout USBScreen -dpi 75 >/tmp/dl1.log &
sleep 10
x2x -east -to :1 &
The "-layout" option references a ServerLayout in xorg.conf:
Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
[Code]...
Move you finger from left-to-right, the cursor moves from right-to-left. Tried "InvX", "InvertX", "SwapX", but so far it looks like evtouch is ignoring all options. Xinput list-props only shows "enabled" as a property. Actually, even if this worked, the touch pad would still be a problem. Right now the touch pad input goes to the currently active screen. Ideally I'd like the touch pad to generate x-values to the right of the main screen so that it controls the USB screen, not the main screen. Might be an option that controls this, except evtouch ignores all options.
Suspend kills the USB bus If the PC goes into suspend while the USB display is active, when it returns all USB devices are dead; USB monitor, mouse, keyboard. Hard reset to clear. Also, if the USB display is idle long enough, it turns off the display. Moving the mouse over to that display then causes a USB failure and a hard reset. Might be cool to use it as an out-board screen, but not if the application menus don't work, the touch pad is backwards, and it locks up the system...
Ubuntu :: Connection Monitor Script Works Incorrect?
Jan 21, 2011My promlem is that i wrote a few simple script to monitor the network connection as follows:
script 1 "netmonitor.sh"
Quote:
#!/bin/bash
# /usr/local/bin/netmonitor.sh
ping -c 1 "$HOST" > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ $? = 0 ]; then
echo "`date` Network is ready!" |
[Code]...
Is it possible, that if system don't use the connection after getting the DHCP lease, it close the connection automaticly? Anyway it works ok, but i don't want to owerwrite my router's flash in every 5 seconds with te new lease, my script probably defeat it soon if i don't do anything
Ubuntu :: 10.04 LTS - Dual Monitor Works Only Sometimes (ATI Multi-desktop)?
May 19, 2011I've been using my laptop with an external LCD monitor attached to it at work (Philips 201E). And at home with a different external monitor (Samsung 2032BW). I have an ATI graphics card (HD3450), with Ati Catalyst drivers enabled and I'm using the Single display desktop (Multi-Desktop) seeting. At work I have the external monitor on the left and laptop on the right, while at home the other way around. So when I switch between the two setups, I just needed to go to Ati Catalyst Control Center, change the order of the displays, change the resolution (Home - 1680x1050, Work - 1440x900), reboot and it was all fine.
But since a while it doesn't work properly anymore:
At home it *still* works fine. At work it doesn't work. Sometimes it works for some reason, after a few resolution/setting changes in ACCC and reboots... it's very strange and annoying. Does anyone have any idea for fixing it? I've uninstalled and reinstalled the ATI restricted drivers and that seemed to make it work initially, but it still works just sometimes. This is my xorg.conf currently:
Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "amdcccle Layout"
Screen 0 "amdcccle-Screen[6]-0" 0 0
Screen "amdcccle-Screen[6]-1" 1280 0
EndSection

Ubuntu :: Unity Works On Optiplex 780 Dual Monitor?
Jun 30, 2011The title says most of it. I've got an Optiplex 755 (Dual 20" Dell Monitors) on my desk at work but have access to a 780 if I want it. The 755 does NOT work with Unity, simply won't handle it. I'm not interested in doing an OS Reinstall and data transfer of all my work stuff if Unity doesn't work (KDE is fine on my 755...well sort of, I have Konsole windows popping up through my Firefox and KRDC windows but that's a somewhat minor issue). Anyone have an Optiplex 780 that they have the most recent Ubuntu installed with Unity running (Dual Screen) without a problem?

General :: Dual Monitor No Longer Works
Aug 12, 2009My dual monitor no longer works. I downloaded the new patch for my video card and apparently the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 and Linux do not like each other?
1)Should I just remove the driver?
2)If I did would the old driver pick up because although it had a few faults, at least I could use both monitors after a lil engineering
3)If I were to remove the driver, where would I do it from?
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Second Monitor Works Fine But Main Screen Messed Up
Mar 28, 2010I have to hold a presentation using a projector in a few days and I have to bring my own laptop, so I tried hooking up a second monitor to test if it works. As it turns out, the second monitor works fine, but then my main screen is messed up. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and I'm doing this on a HP Pavilion DV4000 laptop. My main screen shows just the bottom (cca) 400 pixels of the wallpaper, no bottom panel, no desktop icons. And I'm kind of scared to remove the second monitor now cause I don't know what I'll do if I don't get the main screen back.. Well, other than installing 9.10 beta that is..

Feb 22, 2011I am running Slackware64 -current. I just upgraded KDE to 4.6.0 from Alien Bob's ktown repo, and upon doing so my battery monitor no longer functions properly. More specifically, the icon will appear in the panel, but when I choose the option to show the charge/discharge state it does not show. The icon only ever shows that the battery is not plugged in to an external power source (showing a plug and a red x). It is important that I get the battery monitor functional once again as I am running my new Slackware64 -current install on a laptop and don't like to be left wondering when my laptop's battery will die and if I need to plug it in.

I think "forgotten" by the generic drivers for ATI or something that influences the video. it does not show. 9.10,10.04,10.10 none of those versions worked ... on other computers functioned normally. I found researching how to dribble and go to live. and thus unable to install. but does not work after the pc restarts. Linux does not. shows nothing ... goes to black screen with the (- FLASHING) but nothing else happens.
Ubuntu :: Xorg Doesn't Detect Monitor / Won't Display Higher Than 800x600 On A 1400x900 Monitor
Apr 3, 2010I installed Karmic on an older PC I had laying around, and the only trouble I am having is with screen resolution. It uses an old ATI chipset (onboard) for video, and it doesn't seem to do EDID correctly, so I can't display anything higher than 800x600. I have tried creating an xorg.conf, but it's still not working. How can I tell Xorg to ignore the fact it can't detect a widescreen monitor and display something larger than 800x600? I noticed the log says the sync's are out of range, but I am not sure how to fix it.
Here is my current xorg.conf.
Code:

Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"

Jun 29, 2010Currently I have two 1920x1080 screens running in Twinview on my Geforce 275 graphics card. Want I want to do is a quick simple way of disabling my secondary monitor when playing video games or using xbmc to watch movies, etc. I've tried a few applets but they require the xandr function which I think Nvidia doesn't support.
Is there a way to disable this quickly other than loading up nvidia-settings and disabling the monitor everytime. I don't really want to use two seperate x sessions and xinerama due to the fact you can't use compositing.
