customise internationalization
Hi! I have Swedish language settings. I would like to partly change those. I want Swedish keyboard settings and all the date formats, currency, thousands separators, decimals and so on to conform to Swedish convention. But in programs I want all menus, messages, error messages etc in English. Is this doable, if so how? regards Andreas
pepperflashplugin-nonfree
Hi! I use Chromium 35.0.1916.153 Debian 7.5. I've installed pepperflashplugin-nonfree since the old flashplugin no longer works. The problem is chromium doesn't detect pepperflash. Does anyone know how to get it to work? regards Andreas Berglund

My apologies.

No worries.

Thanks.
Everything there looks as it should be - for the camera.
The result of ls /dev/video* is /dev/video0
Then device creation is fine, and accords with dmesg.
It appears as if there isn't enough USB bandwidth for your device - try
it in other USB ports. Use:-
$ dmesg | tail -20 | grep ioctl
to see when you've found a USB bus that's not overloaded.
None of the usb ports worked. This is the output from vlc
v4l2:///dev/video0

Before I got "v4l2: ioctl streamon failed: No space left on device" from
vlc as well as from mplayer. Don't know what made that change. I still
get that message from mplayer.
I've tried the camera in windows and it works, reasonably it shouldn't
work there either if it was due to a constraint on the bus bandwith.
Test with:-
$ vlc v4l2:///dev/video0
because vlc "just works", and if it doesn't, it'll usually provide
instructive output.
NOTE: the Debian VLC, *not* the multimedia-debian VLC.

problem, please post the output from the following commands (all run as

The double quote character within Shell's double quotes can be
escaped with a backslash (“\”):
sed -i "s|^\( *PATH=\"\)\(.*\)|\1${ADD}:\2|"
However, one is by no means forced to use just one kind of
quotes in Shell, so the following is also possible:
sed -i 's|^\( *PATH="\)\(.*\)|\1'"${ADD}"':\2|'

The questions like this are much more likely to be answered by
the comp.unix.shell Usenet newsgroup folks. The newsgroup could
be accessed either using some sort of newsreader software (Gnus,
Alpine, SLRN, Icedove/Thunderbird, etc.), e. g.:
Thanks I'll make sure to gain access to that

I could only found an Ubuntu bug for a similar card/chipset:
***
[IDT ID 76e7] Dell Latitude E5520 - No sound through internal speakers,
sound is only from headphones output with Ubuntu 10.04.2 and 10.10 -
update Lucid ALSA LBM to latest release (1.0.24)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/792233
***
The bug points to the latest ALSA version but I'm not sure if that will
solve your audio problem. To avoid messing up things, I would first try
to load a LiveCD with the latest ALSA version (1.0.24) and see if that
works. If yes, then consider upgrading ALSA for your Squeeze install.

can't load module sbp2 when running script from cron

The modules loaded pertaining to madwifi are:
