Re: Strange KDE Problem
2005 m. Birelio 8 d., Treiadienis 17:33, Graham Smith ra: I have recently started experiencing a strange problem with KDE whereby for some unknown reason it switches to Gnome (while I'm logged in - I didn't think that was possible). The most obvious sign that this has happened is the background picture set under KDE disappears and the right click on the desktop is ignored (no menu pops up). I get no messages in /var/log/syslog when it happens. gnome-settings-daemon, nautilus (do not ever run nautilus under KDE) and other similar core gnome programs seem to be taking over your desktop. Kill them and it should be fine. A general rule is to avoid all GNOME programs which are very tightly integrated into the GNOME desktop. I'm running the pure64 port of sid with KDE 3.3.2. I think, but I can't confirm this because it doesn't happen every time, that it has something to do with Open Office or the chroot it is running in. I say this because the problem seems to occur after I start Open Office (it might just be the screen saver though but it seems more common with OO). Do you have openoffice.org-gtk-gnome installed? If so, try removing it. pgpd9pLl4AOLN.pgp Description: PGP signature
archives?
Am I just crazy or did all of the archives die recently? I've tried amd64.debian.net, debian.csail.mit.edu and ftp.de.debian.org and all of their dists directories appear to be empty for each of the various amd64 distributions. apt-get and dselect are very unhappy of course. And I don't see amd64 yet on my own official Debian mirror, so that hasn't happened yet.

Hmm, both debian-pure64 and debian-amd64 seem to have lost the contents of the dists subdir, although all the packages appear to be in the pool dir. That seems odd, and probably isn't supposed to be happening. So no you are not crazy, but perhaps a computer or admin somewhere is. :) Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Its me going crazy, fixing a stupid problem, now waiting that the mirrors all sync up with the push I just sent, then sending out another push which contains the dist/ again.

Re: apt problem - unupgradeable packages?

MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum
Has anyone installed onto an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum mother board? I'm having problems (see bug #311856 for details) and am wondering if this is a hardware compatibility problem or faulty hardware. Any reports as to success or failure of debian-amd64 on this board would be much appreciated. Thanks. Carrick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
