Re: Porteus Desktop Edition 3.0 rc1 bugs/feedback thread
Hi,
Can KDE release version contain GPARTED?
Because The KDE partition manager have more bugs with Newer HDD but GPARTED have more than supporting and efficiency.

Re: Porteus Desktop Edition 3.0 rc1 bugs/feedback thread
there is no sound in card 0 but it is the default so i need to to change to card 1 every time i login but i find a way to fix it i describe it in the end of the reply.Ahau wrote:@ramine, thanks, I will take a look. It may be a kernel config issue with your sound driver being compiled into the kernel instead of as a module. What's the brand/model of your card?
this is from porteus system info:
SOUND CARDS:
HDA-Intel - HD-Audio Generic
HDA-Intel - HDA ATI SB
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Wrestler HDMI Audio
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40)
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: CX20588 Analog [CX20588 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
and this is from alsamixer:
for card 0:
Card: HD-Audio Generic
Chip: ATI R6xx HDMI
for card 1:
Card: HDA ATI SB
Chip: Conexant CX20588
i think there is a problem because xscreensaver-command doesn't exist in the system please give me some details.fanthom wrote:@ramine
"when i play a video in mplayer i see that message in terminal window:
sh: xscreensaver-command: command not found
and i go to the mplayer config file i see that line and i think it's connected to that message:
heartbeat-cmd="xscreensaver-command -deactivate &" # stop xscreensaver"
will comment out these by default
this video codecs are used only if the video output set to vdpau(vo=vdpau).fanthom wrote: "i want another thing to add this 2 lines to the config file it's for user have nvida or radeon graphics card:
[vo.vdpau]
vc=ffh264vdpau,ffvc1vdpau,ffodivxvdpau,ffwmv3vdpau,ffmpeg12vdpau,"
cant as it breaks video on non vdpau enabled PCs
i don't find asound.conf in /etc do you mean asound.state or i need to create a new filebrokenman wrote:@ Ramine
For now try adding /etc/asound.conf with the following:
defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.ctl.card 0
Or perhaps change to 1 if 0 doesn't work.
but as i said before if i change the line in the file /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf:
defaults.pcm.card 0
with:
defaults.pcm.card 1.
after that the sound will work in every software except the new version of vlc 2.1.x i need to to choose HDA ATI SB.
i create a module of the modified file and put it in the module folder so every time i enter the always fresh mode it works automaticaly.

Re: Porteus Desktop Edition 3.0 rc1 bugs/feedback thread
Yes you need to create the file.
cat >> /etc/asound.conf << EOF
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.ctl.card 1
EOF
I have sound in the latest VLC.
cat >> /etc/asound.conf << EOF
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.ctl.card 1

Re: Porteus Desktop Edition 3.0 rc1 bugs/feedback thread
ralcocer, it's odd, but on tuesday I was able to reproduce this error some of the time, but this morning file-roller seemed to work flawlessly. Can you please tell me what type of archive you are trying to extract, where from and to, which user you are (root or guest), and are you opening the file-roller GUI or just doing right click -> extract here ?ralcocer wrote:Using LXDE 32 bit, Archive Manager gives the error an error ucurred while loading the archive, Xarchiver works OK.
@dacq, if you are using any saved changes from another install, please try booting without them first. If that doesn't help, please check the md5 on your iso download as it might be a corruption, and/or let me know what your BOOT line is from your porteus.cfg, at /mnt/sdXY/boot/syslinux/porteus.cfg, where sdXY is the device where you have Porteus installed.
@phhpro, per brokenman's suggestions, this sounds like a borked cache file, perhaps your custom module includes a file that is overwriting stuff in the cache. those empty boxes typically indicate your pango cache needs to be updated (/usr/bin/update-pango-querymodules). I'm not sure about the panel freezing and messed up icons (though again this could be some odd cache overwriting action). If you like, I can take a look at your modules to see if I can find the problem and verify that it's not in the core modules. Upload them somewhere and PM me a link and I'll see what I can do. BTW, this could very well be an incompatibility between 2.1 and 3.0, but related more to how particular versions are retaining information in the cache files than actual binary incompatibility. I was experimenting with an lxde module from 2.1 and was getting the empty square boxes until I ran update-pango-querymodules even though the same module worked flawlessly in 2.1 and most of the programs seemed functional.
Please take a look at our online documentation, here. Suggestions are welcome!

Re: Porteus Desktop Edition 3.0 rc1 bugs/feedback thread
@guys
i have updated gtk-easy-build on the server so now it should produce working Vbox/vbox-addons modules - please test when you have a chance.
@roelof
I use the installer on kde under favourites and doubleclick.
still ok here - please try in always fresh mode
@cttan
Pls place the CPU Monitor widget on the right side of the System Tray.
I have observed that when the number of programs increase in the System Tray, it will overlap the CPU Monitor.
will do - thanks
@francois
Concerning the ssr package (simple screen recorder), everything is functioning well except that the level of the sound recording seems low.
maybe this: run alsamixer -> switch to capture device -> raise volume level
@mbzadegan
Can KDE release version contain GPARTED?
rather not as it pulls many deps. please report KDE partition manager bugs upstream (to it's creators).
@ramine
there is a problem because xscreensaver-command doesn't exist in the system please give me some details.
please edit /home/guest/.mplayer/config and remove or comment out these lines
this video codecs are used only if the video output set to vdpau(vo=vdpau).
should i go with:
or rather

Re: Porteus Desktop Edition 3.0 rc1 bugs/feedback thread
XFCE, 32-bit
Someone successfully boot up v3.0 rc1 with bootloader grub ? I try several times but failed.
Booting stops at a line say something like "eth0..eth1.. not available".
With reiserfs, the installer fallback to lilo but give error message.
The new version LibreOffice cannot be launched; old one works well.

Want more bugs? Here you are.
1. Black screen in Gnome-Mplayer while playing WebM. The only cure is to press the down key at the start, only then I can see the video.
2. When I copy files from one folder to another, it says smth about permission bug. In Thunar I have the setting "Apply to the folder and its contents" turned on, but it doesn't help.

please paste here the debug.txt log file generated by the installer
@ramine
ok - will go with [vo.vdpau]
@Cyril
Mplayer troubles is a known issue - will fix for rc2.
thanks all

Thanks.

Tested printer on brother mfc-7860dw. Everything works fine in both cups and system-config-printer, network mode.
Thanks.
Ok got it. Under alsamixer you need to do f4. Sound is louder but not clean. I will have to play a bit with it.@francois
