  1. Do you get any error message when you click the desktop/nautilus icons that stopped working? these are usually managed by udev from what I remember.

     

    no i didn't. BUT I solved the problem.

    all i had to do is change the mount directory from /mnt to /media and now everything is OK :)

     

    thank you for your help

  2. I Have ntfs3g installed

     

    and this is the content of the fstab file:

    # Entry for /dev/sda1 :
    UUID=184e78b8-4a88-4ec9-8706-9775537f7fbc / ext3 relatime 1 1
    # Entry for /dev/sda6 :
    UUID=4b043c1e-b38f-4c72-b3ef-727ccf477dcd /home ext3 relatime 1 2
    /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto umask=0,users,iocharset=utf8,noauto,ro,exec 0 0
    # Entry for /dev/sdb1 :

    also I have this 2 processes running all the time:

    root	  2416  0.0  0.0   3800   944 ?		Ss   00:46   0:00 /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt/win_c -o rw
    root	  2419  0.0  0.0   3800  1080 ?		Ss   00:46   0:00 /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g /dev/sdb5 /mnt/win_d -o rw

  3. Hi all,

    I'm using 2008.1 with gnome. for a few months everything was OK until few weeks ago when I've installed

    some updates. now i can't access mounted ntfs partitions using Dolphin System shortcuts or natulus Computer shortcuts

    i can access them by using /mnt/win_d and /mnt/win_c

     

    anyone got any idea please i've tried looking in the web for answers but

    no success.

     

    thanks,

    error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)'

  5. Hi all,

    well i'm trying to install mysql 5.0 on my mdv 2008.1 machine. the installation guide i'm working with is:

    Howtofordge -mdv2008.1 server

    everything is working perfect in the installation part until I reach this commands:

     

    if I type this:

    mysqladmin -u root password yourrootsqlpassword

    I get the following error:

    mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
    error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'

     

    if I try the following command:

    mysqladmin -h server1.example.com -u root password yourrootsqlpassword

    (after changing my hostname and changing the server1.example.com to my hostname)

    the error is:

     
    mysqladmin: connect to server at 'myhostname' failed
    error: 'Host 'myhostname' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server'

     

    I checked the following:

    * firewall is open on port 3306 (i even checked with no firewall)

    * the my.cnf file is as it came by default after changing only what the guide said

     

    please help me :)

    thanks

  6. so i've checked my fstab file and this is the file after i tried to change a few things:

    /dev/sda1 / ext3 relatime 1 1
    /dev/sda7 /boot ext3 relatime 1 2
    /dev/sda10 /home ext3 relatime 1 2
    /dev/hda /media/cdrom auto umask=0022,users,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,noauto,ro,exec 0 0
    /dev/sda5 /mnt/files vfat umask=0,users,iocharset=iso8859-1,exec 0 0
    /dev/sdb1 /mnt/win_c2 ntfs-3g umask=0,user,locale=utf8,exec 0 0
    /dev/sdb5 /mnt/win_d ntfs-3g umask=0,user,locale=utf8,exec 0 0
    /dev/sda8 /usr ext3 relatime 1 2
    /dev/sda9 /var ext3 relatime 1 2
    /dev/sda6 swap swap defaults 0 0
    none /proc proc defaults 0 0

     

    if i try and put iso8859-1 in the ntfs-3g mounts i get the following error after doing remount:

    WARNING: Couldn't set locale to 'ISO8859-1' thus some file names may not
    	 be correct or visible. Please see the potential solution at
    	 http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#locale

     

    when i run the locale -a command i get a list and in the list there is:

    if i choose he_IL.UTF-8 then i can see hebrew files in my ntfs mounts but still not in my fat32 :(

    any ideas ?

  7. Hi all,

    I've noticed that in the last week all of a sudden my hebrew folders / files are gone from my windows partitions (in winXP i can see them).

    i'm mounting all my fat32/ntfs as 8859-1 coding but still i can't see them (i used to see :()

     

    anyone as a clue ? please ?

  8. Hi all,

    I've upgraded my OO to 2.4 (I'm using MDV 2008.0 so i did it manually) and i have a weird problem when I'm opening Word 2003 documents

    some (not all but most) of the digits in the file become Arabic digits instead of Latin one's.

    most of the cases are in Hebrew fonts but changing the font won't fix the problem :(

     

    any suggestions ? please ?

     

    thanks,

  9. I have a 64bit CPU and I'm using 2008-Free (32 bit) and nothing is out of the ordinary here :)

    in the beginning of my Linux experiments I've installed the 64bit version and there where a lot of

    problems (drivers, programs, packages) after i moved to the 32 bit everything is smooth (so far :) )

  10. I've solved the problem :)

    well the solution is very simple.

    in the keyboard layout i wrote this line:

     

    setxkbmap -model logiclx300 -layout il,us

    now the copy/paste and the OO shortcuts work perfectly :)

     

    thank you all :)

  11. Hi,

  12. hi,

    i want to make one of my computers into a firewall / router / AV server for all my computers in the home network.

    i found how to make mandriva a DNS server / FTP server but i couldn't find how to make it a security server.

     

    if it possible i would like to get some tutorials.

     

    thanks,

    igotnoluck ;)

  13. hi all,

    i have a weird problem and i don't know where to ask it so i will try here.

    i'm now in the middle of completely moving to linux from windows and i have just one more annoying thing to overcome

    i know how to install the hebrew keyboard and use it but i have the most annoying thing:

    when i'm on hebrew layout i don't have any shortcuts like (Ctrl+c, Ctrl+v) and it does not bother me that much but know i'm trying to

    write an OO document and i'm going crazy.

    please help and sorry for thelong crying letter :)

    :wall:
