 Hi all,
 
 after the last update I get some strange messages in stdout during boot:
 
 no file /var/lib/misc/service.db
 
 or 
 
 no file /var/lib/misc/protocol.db
 
 I guess, this belongs to libnss-db (please correct me, if I am wrong!) and I 
 suppose, these are databases.
 
 Can I generate these databases manually ? and how do I have to do it ?
 I suppose it is makedb , but I am not sure.
I had the same problem but it has been fix automatically (I don't know how).

slow file browser

2008-01-16 Thread Frans Oliehoek
Hi,

I run lenny and since a couple of weeks I am experiencing problems
browsing moderately sized directories (about 2000 entries) with the
nautilus file browser. I was wondering if other people encountered the
same problem?

Regards,
Frans Oliehoek

got a response from the upstream maintainer).

Subject: mozilla-plugin-gnash crashes X on x86_64

Package: mozilla-plugin-gnash
Version: 0.7.2-1

# dpkg -l | grep -i gnash
ii  gnash0.7.2-1  free 
Flash movie player
ii  libgnash00.7.2-1  free 
Flash movie player - shared libraries
ii  mozilla-plugin-gnash 0.7.2-1  free 
Flash movie player - Plugin for Mozilla


Running Debian/Lenny.

When I go to any page that utilizes Flash on x86_64 using Debian's Ice Weasel, 
it crashes my X session.


Jan  4 20:09:26 p34 kdm[3501]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly

I use an Intel motherboard with the i810 driver, no proprietary modules.

Justin.

Make sure you have non-free in your sources.list and:

apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

There's an open and fairly major bug that nspluginwrapper is having trouble
with recent Flash versions, but it seems that it works perfectly for about
75% of users and fails for the rest. We have a patch but it seems to make
matters worse for everyone.

I hope to release 0.9.91.5-2 before the end of the week. Fingers crossed.

Look into /usr/share/doc/nspluginwrapper. :) I found everything I needed
to do in there. I Can't remember it anymore, though.

 Thanks for any contructive criticism ;-)

You're welcome. :)

SOLVED.

Right, close IceWeasel. the -v -i thing is much cleaner:
Auto-update plugins from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
Looking for plugins in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
Auto-update plugins from /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins
Looking for plugins in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins
Auto-update plugins from /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
Looking for plugins in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
Auto-update plugins from /usr/lib64/firefox/plugins
Looking for plugins in /usr/lib64/firefox/plugins
Auto-update plugins from /root/.mozilla/plugins
Looking for plugins in /root/.mozilla/plugins

But... no sound. So i don't think it's flash-related.
And it isn't :-)
I killed esd and changed the output in XMMS to ALSA. It actually
worked (i had issues with it in the past). Tried youtube and it has
sound.

Thanks for your tips and patience.

Re: Flash

2008-01-16 Thread Nuno Magalhães
Correction: two folders:

/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/
and
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
this last has lots of plugins, the -firefox one only has
npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
There's also
/usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
It's everywhere! And it's mute.

When trying:
nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
or
nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
i get
nspluginwrapper: /path/.so is not a valid NPAPI plugin

Running nspluginwrapper -v -a -u
will spurt out the following output:
http://www.dei.isep.ipp.pt/~i000283/misc/output.txt
A relevant info would be NS4 plugin
/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so is already installed
system-wide, removing wrapper. I don't know what NS4 or NPAPI mean
but i assume the wrapper doesn't like the nonfree plugin - which is
the one that has worked best so far.

gnash is not installed. ALSA, OSS, ESD... Shouldn't they all work? I
have ALSA installed and as far as esd goes only gstreamer0.10-esd and
libesd0 are returned by dpkg -l--
Fica bem, porta-te mal.
Be well, misbehave.

Re: Flash

Nuno Magalhães:
 
 I'm running esd right now and using xfce. I closed all sound-related
 applications (xmms) and tried again: no sound. So... it might have to
 do with the sound daemon or something...

Yep, I am not sure but that would be my bet, too. I got rid of all these
sound servers quite some time ago and never missed them in any way.

The only real use for them (playing multiple streams simultaneously) can
be achieved by alsa as well. The only downside is that you may have to
twiddle a little bit with your settings. But that depends on your
hardware and/or your current settings. Just try disabling esd and see if
everything still works.
