Ubuntu :: Unsupported Number Of Arguments / Falling Back To Default Session
Aug 4, 2011
I just installed my Lubuntu, but I upgrade to lubuntu 11.04 (natty), after that I decided to try unity, so I installed ubuntu-desktop and unity, but when I try to start session on Ubuntu or unity it told me the title error, then I got the error.It open me a session without any menues and just a clean desktop.On another topic, after I upgrade, Lubuntu ask the password each time I turn on my computer, But when I try to change the settings and click on the button that say: enter session without asking password, that button appear locked.How do I unlock it?

I have an older PC that was running F11 without any problems. At some point I started updating to F12 through the web and got a a nice black screen that pretty much hosed my OS. (Not a big deal).So I went and downloaded the F12 Live CD which did the same thing.., at some point just after install the screen would be black and reset is the only option.Got the full F12 32-bit DVD and during the installation I get: "X Startup Failed,Falling back to text mode."Finishing the install I get to a nice black log-in prompt so I can log-in as root.From there I cant do much as I am a n00d in Linux to some extent and my network doesn't work
My video card is a Geforce FX 5200 which installed and worked just fine under F11 (without me doing anything but basic install and Ubuntu 9.10)

just built a computer and wanted to try out some linux.
First off I burned the Fedora 10 x86_64 disk image (using disk utility on my mac at 4x speed then verified it) to a dvd. I start the install. "x startup fails to load, falling back to text mode" comes up. I use the text install then. It gets to the actual installation of the different packages then a black screen shows up with white text that's highlighted red (sometimes it's blue). It then freezes and I reboot. Sometimes it freezes at different points and with different messages, but the description above is what happens most often.
I try writing it at 1x speed and verifying. same thing.I try the Live CD. It freezes.Then I tried Fedora 9. same thing.
Next I go to Ubuntu 8.10.I try the regular install, but the orange loading bar freezes.I try the Live CD-like install. It runs!...but when i go to install, when it gets to the partitioning part, it freezes and becomes unresponsive.
Each time it froze I let it sit for about 10 minutes, just to make sure it is in fact frozen. I've tried these installs numerous times.

I need to write a wrapper function around the mvprintw function, like so:
int smvprintw( ? )
{
// Do various checks/modifications on the first two arguments (int y,
int x) first,
// and then
return mvprintw ( ? );
}
How should I write the args for smvprintw so that I can pass all the data correctly to mvprintw, and also do my checks on the first two args (for example, to modify them)? I'm confused by the prototype of mvprintw: This is mvprintw as listed in the man pages:
int mvprintw(int y, int x, const char *fmt, ...);
And this is how I saw it in ncurses.h:
extern NCURSES_EXPORT(int) mvprintw (int,int, const char *,...)
I believe the "..." refers to the unknown number of items after const char * fmt. Will it suffice to do something like "int smvprintw(int y, int x, const char * fmt, void * etc)" and then "mvprintw(y, x, fmt, etc)" inside the function?

I just upgraded from jaunty and somewhere in the process (or just after, I'm no longer sure just when it started) I started getting this error whenever I try to install or upgrade a package. Some of my software isn't working properly - some won't even load - so I'm not sure if the installations are actually succeeding, or not. But apt-get install -f shows nothing but a list of stuff I need to autoremove (mostly dev files). This particular message is the output of the details tab in synaptic, but I've gotten the same thing in terminal from apt-get. Quote:
dpkg-deb: --control /var/cache/apt/archives/dpkg-awk_1.0.3_all.deb /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci

In lmms there is no sound and it says:
No audio-driver working - falling back to dummy-audio-driver
in the command prompt. Sound works everywhere else just not lmms.

So, I just installed Kubuntu 10.04, and couldn't let things be, so I installed GNOME, and plan to install a few other desktop environments for fun later. However, when I installed GNOME (apt-get install ubuntu-desktop), I realized that KDM's default session is whatever session you used last time. I'd rather it simply be KDE, since I know I'll be using it most out of any of the others. How can I make the KDM default session be KDE, instead of whatever the previous session was?

I can't change the default session on the login screen to Openbox. The only place I can see to change this in 10.04 is in the "login" settings screen. I've done that; I still get "gnome" as the default option when I go to log in.

In my login screen settings, I accidentally swithed from GNOME to the recovery terminal. I can boot to x fine in recovery mode, but I can't change the screen settings from here.
How do I change it back to GNOME?

I installed Fedora 12 LXDE spin and its default session was LXDE. Then I downloaded XFCE and tried to change the default session of GDM to XFCE. I edited ~/.dmrc and /etc/sysconfig/desktop but this didn`t change anything. I was unable to find where GDM stores its default setting.
Is there any way to change GDM default session?
And more important: is there any way to make GDM to store different default sessions for different users?

Today I launched my opensuse and I noticed that it takes so much time for the kde to load . As I also receive some strange messages I took a picture of my desktop after the boot up process.
ImageShack® - Online Photo and Video Hosting
Few things
-Takes so much time to load (like 3 mins, was 30 secs before)
-there a problem top left corner of my screen "The process for the file protocol died unexpectecdly". This is a small plasma widget showing the contents of a folder.
-The KMixCtrl crashes. There is only one sound device at my system which was always . This problem first appeared today.
-Bottom left of the corner: There was a virtual desktop switcher where you could swap between four different widgets. Right now only one icon is visible.
-whole system is not that responsive
I didnt change anything drastically in my system (not sure if any system upgrade was executed)
I tried to find and see if there any kde log files but could not find any.
some technical info are :
cat /etc/issue
Welcome to openSUSE 11.3 "Teal" - Kernel (l).
kde 4.4.4 release 3.
kernels vmlinux-2.6.34.7-0.5-default.gz (and desktop version).
I mention again that I didn't change anything in my system. It seems that something went corrupted.

I would like to make LXDE the default desktop for ALL USERS on my LTSP clients. There are about 60 users so far.On my server, LXDE is default for everyone.But on the clients, each user has to change to LXDE individually. How can I make LXDE default on all clients?I've been looking through the forums all day, but could not find an answer to this question, so hopefully we can get an answer and my title will help others.

I have got Ubuntu with Xfce installed, and I would like to change default session to Gnome, or LXDE (depending on if my computer would run it properly). Looks like there is no options button while logging in, or anything similar.

I am happy to say that after almost a week of wandering around the INTERNET and posting desperate questions to our Ubuntu forums on how to set paths etc., I have finally begun to understand just how environment variables and path setting works. I must say, it wasn't all reading this or that, but rather making changes to my paths that helped me to understand. Anyway, if anyone who does not understand environment variables is reading this, then I recommend reading this
HTML Code:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/environment/paths.html
and this

OK- I have 1 last question for my fellow linux users. Lets say I opened up $HOME /.profile and did some editing, and later decided to undo all of my changes but I forgot exactly what changes I made so now I want to set the default in there. How would I accomplish this? How do I set the defaults for any ~/.bashrc or ~/.cshrc type of files that I change.

I recently installed SLiM and wanted to give it a try. I found out that XDM actually loads a bit faster on my machine, so I'm going to stick with it. I uninstalled SLiM, leaving XDM the only login manager on my system, but how can I change it back to the default? When my system boots up, I get the default console login.

I have been replacing XP with Debian wheezy on my fathers in-laws old Dell SX280.
It uses a wifi USB dongle labelled as a TP-Link TL-WN321G.
lsusb reports it as Ralink RT2070 with ID 148f:2070
The interface is configured only using /etc/network/interfaces using
auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-essid MYSSID
wireless-key s:MYKEY
The network works for a few minutes, and then falls off the network. I am pinging the router IP address so it's not DNS
running dhclient wlan0 immediately restores the network, but it then fails again after a few minutes
I have tried using the standard stable kernel along with packages firmware-linux (pulls in free and non-free) along with firmware-ralink
I have also replaced all of the above packages and the kernel from wheezy-backports; it makes no difference
in dmesg it says it is using firmware rt2870.bin
I can't figure out why it falls off the network, it didn't in XP. The PC only 5 metres from the AP with a very strong signal.
