I had trouble upgrading to glib 2 12 9, so I tried glib 2 12 0 to install, I cd to glib ./configure make make install I get these messages after make Making all in reference make[3]: Entering directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs/reference' Making all in glib make[4]: Entering directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs/reference/glib' make[4]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs/reference/glib' Making all in gobject make[4]: Entering directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs/reference/gobject' make[4]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs/reference/gobject' make[4]: Entering directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs/reference' make[4]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'. make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs/reference' make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs/reference' make[3]: Entering directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs' make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'. make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs' make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3/docs' make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jose/Documents/glib-2.12.3' I am trying to install these for either a comic book archiver or a screen saver The current stable version of GTK+ is 2.10. The current stable version of GLib is 2.12. The current stable version of Pango is 1.14. The gui interface does not start automatically, I have to type in the KDE command And when it does log on, it gives message that the sound server crashed, so there is no audio. The sound card works in Win XP Logging out, it only gives the option of End Current Session These are some of the messages that are displayed when logging out. SWT: 6820 GLIB -GObject - Critical - g_signal_connectdata: G_type_check_instance_failed Warning - instance with invalid NULL class pointer Last drop call before KDED crash was from application 'KDED' to object KCrash: Application 'KDED' crashed.... waiting for X server to shut down synaptics device off called drKorqi FATAL IO error Client killed then it takes me to the prompt, but does shut down. I have to hit the off button, which is making me nervous because it seems as if it is slowing killing the hard drive If I can't rectify this problem, I might just reformat this partition from XP and retire Linux. Also, when I clicked mcc in Konsole, I got this message [jose@localhost ~]$ kdesu (kdelibs): WARNING: No X authentication info set for display :0.0 QMultiInputContext::changeInputMethod(): index=0, slave=xim kdesu (kdelibs): WARNING: No X authentication info set for display :0.0 kdesu (kdelibs): WARNING: No X authentication info set for display :0.0 any suggestions on how to install glib? thanks again

found problem I was trying to upgrade to glib-2-12-9 on install I had a message of of error that it was not installed. how do I uninstall this version or any previous installs?

I have a dual notebook, XP and Mandriva 2006. When I try to start Linux, KDE gui does not load automatically. It takes me to the black screen (don't know what it is called), the prompt screen that that first asks for username and password. I enter those names, in and it logs me in as root, but still at the prompt. To start KDE gui I have to type in KDE at the prompt, and it loads all right. And when I log off, it only gives the option of End Current Session Then it takes me back to the prompt to exit. First off, it never did this before. I was able to log out, and either restart to XP or turn off computer. 1. How do I get back to loading the KDE gui automatically? 1a. If not, then what is the command to exit KDE at the prompt? I tried exit, quit, x, q But nothing, I had to hit the off button. I might have have had some issues with my TV Card in Windows XP. I had to turn off the computer with the off button a few times, that is when the KDE gui did not start any more. Both OS seem to work with the exception of the KDE gui not loading automatically. Hope this isn't a hardware problem. Thanks

Try these links FlashPlayer 9 beta -> http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer9.html The plugin that links Mplayer to Firefox, automatically -> http://mplayerplug-in.sourceforge.net/download.php mplayer 3.31 I am using Mandriva 2006, Firefox 2, MPlayer 1.0pre8-Fedora-GS-4.0.2 Even though FlashPlayer 9 is beta, it is stable on my system. Before I installed, I couldn't watch streaming video and audio. Now I can. Hope it helps.

A restart of Firefox did it.

OK I found a couple of million dollar downloads. FlashPlayer 9 beta -> http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer9.html The plugin that links Mplayer to Firefox, automatically -> http://mplayerplug-in.sourceforge.net/download.php The Mplayer plugin, can now view streaming QuickTime movies, at least this one -> http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/spider-man_3/ the FlashPlayer plugin, can view YouTube videos, but in some sites, in only plays the audio and a black screen. This is somewhat better than the previous version that I had, 7, which did nothing at all. I don't know if this will ban me or put me on probation for linking these sites, but here goes, as I mentioned YouTube.com and Yahoo games work on my system, but these sites only play audio and a black screen -> http://www.foxnews.com/ these sites are FlashPlayer required, right-click on the video sreen link and it states the version 7, even though I installed version 9 beta. How do I get sites that only play audio and a black screen to play? thanks for all your help.

I blew it at Easy urpmi. Now at install of mplayer plugin rpm I get -> unable to access hdlist file of contrib, medium ignored I am going to look more into Linux commands, folder structure, and the basics of Linux before I tackle any more tasks. Thanks.

I got Mplayer to link to Firefox to play Quicktime, but I am not sure about streaming . wmv sorry for all the hassle but do read my last post.

permission to delete this reply, thanks

How do I link Firefox 2 to Mplayer so that .mov and wmv files open up? Got Mplayer to link to Firefox!

Delete this

Yes it did help. I knew about the KDE setting at Audio idle at 1. But not the Full Duplex check mark in Hardware. That was the magic button. Thanks

where did my sound go!!!!!!!!! It was working. The last thing I was doing was trying to rename a folder cd to that folder mv badfoldername this was a folder that i created with a few downloads. there should not have been anything linked to this folder. It killed my iNTERNET audio Still can hear Amarok 1.3 and startup music, but no Internet audio. What happened? I don't even know where to start I did change KDE audio configuration back and forth and restarted several times. But still no sound

Lucky you I had my audio working, but it keeps turning off, even if I do nothing. Sometimes, if I give it a good old fashioned restart, it will work I do here the start up music and amaroK 1.3 works. But no streaming radio or Java sound. I tried to install xine and all of its plugins, but that might have been when the sound crashed. I noticed xmms also needs plugins, I will press my luck and see what happens.

OK ' This has probably been asked, but how do you uninstall packages that are tar.gz archived and had to be -> ./configure make make install ? I am trying to install ruby 1.8.5 tar.gz tag lib 1.4 tar.gz xine 1.13 tar.gz which are ultimately needed for amarok 1.4.2 After attempting to install these packages, they crashed the audio in Firefox 2. No Java sound or Real Player 10 sound. Is there an easy way to uninstall or do I have to manually find each file that was created? Or how can I back track and restore Firefox back to audio working? Thanks NM I think I just uninstalled taglib and xine, using make uninstall
