Gnome open can not recognize a file by its name
Hi, Recently, my gnome failed to recognize any file by its name extension. For example, I have a .odt file but gnome fails to open it with openoffice writer. So every time I want to open .odt file I have to use open with other application option. It is annoying. Gnome also fails to display the correct icon for a certain file.

Debian Boot Hangs at Swapfile Swap
Hi all, Hope you enjoyed the thanksgiving. I have a tiny problem about my debian/sid. When I boot my debian, it hangs at activating swapfile swap ...done. Here is what I get from the screen: Mounting local filesystems ... done Activating swapfile swap .. done It just hangs here. Then I press ctrl-c(sometimes, twice). The boot continues to set up network. And everything is fine. This is very annoying. I googled a while ending with no clue. I also check the file moutall.sh in /etc/init.d/. I think maybe something wrong with that. But I don't know how to modify it. By the way, the debian is on my laptop and it is the only os. Thanks.

I think it is all about X( form the log you can tell). The system is not down. I don,t have another computer home. So I can not ssh when it crashes. But I will test it in office if it crashes. 2. The is no keyboard light flashing, so basically it is not a kernel problem. I actually tried to use other kernels, but it does not help. 3. gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 is the reason why it crashes. I googled for a while. A lot of debian and ubuntu users suffer the same problem and jet there is no solution,at least i have not found any. Thank you guys.

I think the gdm error is probably a symptom, not a cause. gdm is the program that starts the X server, and that line probably just means the X server blew up, I'll try restarting it and see if that works. The real problem is whatever is causing the X server to blow up; the X server's logs might be helpful in tracking that down. This also means that you probably won't find much by Googling for the gdm error message, since if I'm right, it comes up whenever something goes wrong with X (meaning that those pages you found on Google could each be someone with a completely different problem that happens to have the same symptom).

modifer fstab by mistake,can not boot debian
I have been using debian(sid) for quite a while. I also have windows xp installed on my pc too. When I use debian, I modified fstab to let debian mouse an NTFS drive automatically. Today, to test some parameters in fstab, I changed a parameter for the NTFS drive from auto(which worked fine previously) to default(just like ext3 ). But after that, the system could not boot. It stoped right here: Please use option nls=charsetname in the future. NTFS Volume Version 3.1 I dont know how to do now. I really have very important data from my research on my pc. Is it possible to edit fstab or just boot to some kind of basic system, so at least I can rescue my data? Many thanks, I am having a tough thanksgiving now. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
