  3. Dropbox on Mandriva 2010.0? [solved]

    in Software

    Posted · Edited by epretorious

    Hi, All:

     

    When I try to install Dropbox on Mandriva 2010.0 (i586) RPM complains:

     

    > [epretorious@tinytop2 Downloads]$ sudo rpm -Uvh nautilus-dropbox-0.6.3-1.fedora.i386.rpm

    > warning: nautilus-dropbox-0.6.3-1.fedora.i386.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA1 signature: NOKEY, key ID 5044912e

    > error: Failed dependencies:

    > libgnome >= %{gnome_version} is needed by nautilus-dropbox-0.6.3-1.fc10.i386

    > nautilus-extensions >= 2.16.0 is needed by nautilus-dropbox-0.6.3-1.fc10.i386

     

    Ideas? Suggestions?

  4. Mandriva 2010: Brasero 2.28.2 Runs Very Slowly

    in Audio and Video

    Posted

    I just installed Mandriva 2010.0 (I'd been using Mandriva 2008.0 previously) and noticed that the newer version of Brasero (2.28.2)...

    • takes almost three minutes just to recognize when an audio CD has been inserted into the CD-ROM, and
    • takes three times as long to copy an audio CD as the older version!

    What can I do to make Brasero as fast as it used to be?

    The alsamixer error message proved to be the clue that enabled me to crack the case (using Google).

     

    Specifically, Genotoo Bug #208016 & the post "EeePC in-kernel ALSA difficulties [solved]" in the Gentoo forums described the symptoms and error messages that I was experiencing so I dedicded to try boomslang's suggested solution:

     

    echo "options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-dig" >> /etc/modprobe.conf

    to append a necessary line.

    ...and, viola, sound works properly! :D

     

    Thanks!

    check with alsamixer (command line) that all volumes are set to maximum and that none are muted.

    alsamixer croaks:

     

           [justine@localhost ~]$ alsamixer

       alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument

       [justine@localhost ~]$ which alsamixer
       /usr/bin/alsamixer

       [justine@localhost ~]$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/alsamixer
       alsa-utils-1.0.15-0.rc1.1mdv2008.0

     

    OK, if you're not using the arts sound server, I would suggest that you (as root) run
    alsaconf

    to set things up. Then (also as root) run

    alsactl store

    to save your settings. Now try your sound again with an audio app.

    alsaconf isn't installed:

     

          [justine@localhost ~]$ sudo alsaconf
      sudo: alsaconf: command not found

      [justine@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa | grep alsa
      alsa-utils-1.0.15-0.rc1.1mdv2008.0
      java-1.6.0-sun-alsa-1.6.0.06-2mdv2008.0
      libalsa2-1.0.15-0.rc1.4mdv2008.0
      libalsa-data-1.0.15-0.rc1.4mdv2008.0
      alsa-plugins-1.0.14-7mdv2008.0
      libalsa-oss0-1.0.14-2mdv2008.0

    Thoughts? Suggestions? :huh:

    The arts server does not appear to be installed:

    ...but the hda_intel modules are defined in /etc/modprobe.conf:

     

    [epretorious@localhost ~]$ grep sound /etc/modprobe.conf

  11. New Skins For The Board

    in Announcements and Board Info

    Posted · Edited by epretorious

    I imported a new skin, shockwave and AFAIK everything is working. I also updated Digital Confusion. You can apply these through My Controls, skin and language.

     

    I feel kind'a foolish asking this question, but... Am I the only person here who can't find the "My Controls" selection? (i.e., I found the "My Profile" and the "My Settings" links but neither has a "skin" setting.)

  13. File Sharing

    in Networking

    Posted · Edited by epretorious

    OK, after I chose the "No Firewall" option I could ping, but ticking the "Echo request" alone was not enough. Anyway, even after the ping is enabled, I still don't see PC1 from PC2. Either I'm doing something fundamental wrongly, or something is mis-congfigured in (at least) one of my systems.

    Portmapper and NFS are difficult to secure using any kind of port-based rules because Portmapper will dynamically assign ports for use. The NFS server configuration file /etc/sysconfig/nfs-server provides some guidance on the issue but I know that there used to be a more definitive document somewhere within the file system (e.g., /usr/share/doc) but I can't find it right now. Maybe I'm thinking of Mandriva 2007...

     

    [When the Gentoo Wiki is restored] Take a look at the Gentoo NFS HOWTO for a better idea of how to define the ports that Portmapper assigns to NFS. I believe that these variables are fairly universal. [in the mean time, Google has the HOWTO cached.]

     

    From PC1 execute the following command as root...

     

    rpcinfo -p localhost

    This command should return a list of ports used by NFS. If it does not, NFS is not running. You'll need to dig around to find out why. If NFS is running, execute the following command from PC1 as root...

     

    showmount -e localhost

    This command should return a list of NFS exports. If it does not, the problem resides with the NFS configuration on PC1. Please post the contents of your /etc/exports file. If NFS is running and correctly exporting directories, execute the following command from PC2 as root...

     

    showmount -e 192.168.1.101

    This command should return a list of NFS exports. If it does not, the problem resides with the firewall configuration on PC1.

  19. CD/DVD Creator Won't Recognize CD-RW

    in Hardware

    Posted

    Creating CD's/DVD's used to work but stopped a couple of weeks ago. Now, when I insert a blank CD-R/DVD-R in the DVD-R, the CD/DVD Creator doesn't start anymore.

     

    I found this in /var/log/kernel/errors.log after inserting a blank DVD-R:

     

    [root@localhost ~]# tail /var/log/kernel/errors.log
Aug 12 15:29:55 localhost kernel: sr0: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: Get configuration 46 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00

Aug 12 15:33:02 localhost kernel: ACPI: Error installing bay notify handler

    ...and I found this in the kernel ring buffer:

     

    [root@localhost ~]# dmesg | grep -i cd
ACPI: ECDT 7F6F2D4A, 0052 (r1 LENOVO TP-7B		1060 LNVO		1)

sr 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0

    I've also noticed that the SD card reader has stopped mounting my SD card automatically. When I insert the SD card into the reader, this appears in the kernel ring buffer:

     

    [root@localhost ~]# dmesg | tail -20
mmcblk0: mmc0:8f8b SD01G 1006080KiB 
mmcblk0: p1

    (There were no new errors in /var/log/kernel/errors.log.)

     

    This used to work flawlessly but something changed recently. Ideas? :huh:

    in Command Line, Kernel and Programming

    Posted

    Where'd the libstdc++2.10 package go? (AOL Instant Messenger depends upon it.)

     

    According to RPMpbone.net, libstdc++2.10 is part of the System/Libraries but urpmi doesn't seem to know anything about it:

     

    [epretorious@localhost Download]$ urpmq libstdc++
No package named libstdc++
The following packages contain libstdc++: 
libstdc++-devel
libstdc++-static-devel
libstdc++5
libstdc++6

    FWIW: I'm using the local installation media...

  22. 1920x1200 Screen Resolution in Gnome?

    in Hardware

    Posted

    Using the Screen Resolution Preferences control panel (System->Preferences->Screen Resolution) I'm not able to configure the Gnome screen resolution to match the resolution of my Dell 2407WFP-HC flat panel monitor (1920x1200). The Screen Resolution Preferences control panel only offers...

    • 1024x768
    • 800x600
    • 640x480

    ...though the X.org control panel (Mandiva Control Center->Hardware->X Server) recognizes the nVidia GPU and configures X.org to support 1920x1200 resolution:

     

    Section "Monitor"

EndSubsection
EndSection

    FWIW: Though the nVidia control panel (System->Administration->nVidia Display Settings, ver. 1.0-9639) recognizes the GPU and the monitor correctly, it only offers three more display settings than the Gnome Screen Resolution Preferences control panel:

    • 1280x1024
    • 1280x960
    • 1280x800

    How can I make Gnome use the corect resolution?

    The free versions of mandriva do not include the madwifi drivers because they are not free software... The power pack versions do include non-free, proprietary drivers like madwifi, however.

     

    I would recommend setting up your urpmi sources first and see if there is a precompiled rpm avilable in one of the repos for the madwifi driver.

     

    I'm not able to install/configure my Atheros-based NIC on either of the two versions of Mandriva Power Pack that I use - 2007.0 or 2008.0: When I attempt to add/configure the Proxim 8480-FC PCMCIA card (a.k.a. Orinoco 11a/b/g Combo Card Gold)...

     

    [epretorious@on-the-go ~]$ lspci | grep Atheros
0c:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212/AR5213 Multiprotocol MAC/baseband processor (rev 01)

    Mandriva Control Center attempts to add the required packages from the installation media but complains:

     

    Could not install packages (madwifi-kernel-2.6.22.9-laptop-1-mdv, dkms-madwifi, madwifi-kernel-2.6.22.12-laptop-1mdv)!

    FWIW: I have both the 2.6.22.9 & the 2.6.22.12 kernel packages installed but am running the 2.6.9.12 laptop kernel:

     

    [epretorious@on-the-go ~]$ uname -r
