Re: wary 5.2 pmusic 2.1.8 playlists change |

Strange things happen with playlists, they change after quiting pmusic and restarting!
I went back to wary 5.1.4.1 and did all the same initialization to pmusic 1.8.3 and the playlists seem stable.
The following is some info I could gather:
" -------1---------2---------3---------4---------5---------6----
wary 5.2
pmusic 2.1.8 also 2.1.9
+ index
+ add jazz to playlist 1 (5 pieces)
+ add classical to playlist 2 (3 pieces)
+ add rock to playlist 3 (4 pieces)
! all play ok
quit pmusic
restart pmusic
playlists have changed! Playlist 1 is now Playlist 2.
Could this have something to do with the newer gtkdialog or ffmpeg in wary 5.2?

broomdodger,
Would you mind posting this over in zigbert's pmusic thread? He is the only one who can fix it, and he might not be reading this thread.

Well, I can help out, I will send a pm to zigbert.

The CUPS printing problem in Wary/Racy also appeared in Drake Puppy and the solution is the same. Any application that prints through the GTK print backend /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/printbackends/libprintbackend-cups.so now needs the missing filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops. Trying to substitute a like-named program from another package simply won't work.
The attachment below contains the correct filter from a different build of CUPS 1.3.11.
You may need to do a CUPS restart to make it work.
| Code: | | /etc/init.d/cups restart |
|
Thanks very much for fixing printing!
I have posted about it on my blog:

Yes, unfortunately, nothing I can do about that. We are at the mercy of the Adobe developers. I wonder if they have a bug reporting thingy somewhere?

Re: Wary desktop black, no icons, wallpaper, no ROX |
|
From the terminal run these two commands:
rm /etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders >/etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders
When you reboot all should be as expected.[/quote]
Where do I find a book to learn this sort of thing? I really struggle with understanding man pages and command line options as I have never studied them . If you could suggest a book , or some tutorials that are designed to teach these things I would greatly appreciate it.

I move my saved bookmarks file to root, then use bookmarks

For youtube:
Install video download helper 4.9.5 from here.

Drag the little colored balls up between the printer and search

I found out something interesting, a smaller video_download_helper:

sorry for bad english..... |
Someone else reported having to wait a very long time, but the shutdown did eventually happen -- that was for a beta release of Wary.
I never found out what their problem was, as I cannot repeat the problem on any of my computers.
So, try waiting, a long time. I think he reported 15 minutes or thereabouts.

It did seem to reassign, though, did it?
| Code: |

90 0xff9e (KP_Insert) 0xffb0 (KP_0)
# xmodmap -pk |grep BackSpace
22 0xff08 (BackSpace) 0xfed5 (Terminate_Server)

My Insert key now functions exactly as the backspace key. If I need the Insert toggle action (so chars get overwritten while typing), I tap the numeric keypad's Insert key, that key still works as normal. |
Yes, it did seem to reassign. Have you also tried starting geany after the reassign, see if you get the same problem?
Well, it is not really a problem, as really only want the reassign to work in FF/SM.

Would it be better in /etc/rc.d/rc.update? Full installs suffer the 755 permissions on /tmp too. |
Ok, done. It's done in both places.

i don't know what to say about this. I have looked at /usr/sbin/puppyinstaller, there are two lines that use the 'dc' utility. I put in those same values, works fine.

I had posted both places, not knowing if it was a gtkdialog problem or pmusic.
zigbert asked for that info I posted, and also said he was busy with version 2.2

Having been bitten by this bug a few times myself, I know one of its sources. Certain PET packages contain a /tmp folder which the developer has used to distribute files before committing them to the end user's filesystem. But if the /tmp folder in the PET has 755 permissions, it will replace the correct 777 permissions on the user's actual /tmp folder.

I have just realised what your problem might be. I had removed the global LANG=C from the puppyinstaller script.
If you have a language that uses a comma instead of a dot for the decimal point, example 25,34 then that is what 'dc' will expect.
Ok, I will prefix 'dc' like this:
LANG=C dc ...
This problem seems to be because the 'disktype' utility is reporting partition size with a dot, not a comma.

Well, it is not really a problem, as really only want the reassign to work in FF/SM. |
The re-assign persists for all programs. Yes, geany sees the insert key now as another Backspace key. So does the shell command line. (I'm still using an earlier Wary, 5.1 or so, not the latest.)
You could modify /root/.Xmodmap instead
| Code: |
# cat /root/.Xmodmap
keysym Insert = BackSpace
pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 |

Exactly, it crashes at looking up saving folder.
(gimp-2.7:9752): GLib-WARNING **: goption.c:2132: ignoring no-arg, optional-arg or filename flags ( 8 ) on option of type 0
** Message: Module '/usr/lib/gegl-0.1/ff-load.so' load error: libavformat.so.52: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This is a development version of GIMP. Debug messages may appear here.
gimp-2.7: fatal error: Segmentation fault
EDIT2:
I removed the SFS, and installed gimp-2.7.1-w5.pet, bable-0.1.2-w5 and gegl-0.1.2-w5 from the PPM. libavformat.so.52 is missing.
Got same result(Crash when looking up saving folder ).
EDIT3:
Tried compile new babl-0.1.4, gegl-0.1.6 and gimp-2.7.3 on Wary-5.2.
But the result is the same(Crash when looking up saving folder ). |
It seems the nVidia driver(nvidia-glx-285.05.09) and the kernel problem.
I changed the graphic driver to vesa (nv didn't work) and disappeared the problem.
EDIT4:
Most recent nvidia-glx-290.10 driver seems no problem.
