The above two messages are irrelevant, and should not affect the
functioning of the program. What is probably happening is that
you are using some Indian language locale that is not supported
by X. You should be able to get rid of these by using the English
language locale, e.g., with
   env LANG=en_US ufraw

That sounds like a bug in the program. You should file a bug report.
They sill probably need some information from you that could be
provided by running ufraw with strace,
  strace ufraw
The messages at the end will tell you where ufraw is crashing. It is
difficult to guess why it was working earlier, and does not now.
Could have to do with the image file format, size of the image, etc.
Another possibility is some mis-configuration. You could try removing
any configuration files, maybe saved as ~/.ufraw*, and trying again.

Regards,
Gora

mobile phone = gsm modem. it has  ( || should ?) everything you need for 
both outbound and inbound sms.

I have my nokia 6210 hooked up in a manner that i can remote reboot 
machines ( including powercycle the router / gateway if required ).

( I presume this is where we decide this conversation to be no longer 
relevant to the OP  )

Hi mailing list,

I'm having a desktop user and having problem with X-windows not going

With this configuration, is it possible to go into standby ? I've tried
doing "xset dpms force " "standby"|"suspend"|"off", but nothing
happened.

You need to know first where on which device has put the cd writing device
1. Go to xerm/konxole or Press Ctrl+Alt+F1, adn enter the CLI mode 
anyway you like.
2. Login in the console
4. Since you most probably have an IDE cd writer
#dmesg |grep CD
this will tell you which device is your CD/DVD writer.
5. Open K3b. Go To Settings and Select K3b Setup.
6. Enter the root password
7. Set the device up in the device options
8. If you have a scsi cd/DVD writer
9. run cdrecoed -scanbus
10. follow steps 5-8.

[ilugd] Error is Using ufraw

2006-03-04 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi

I apt-get installed ufraw, a tool to process raw images created using a 
digital camera.

It worked fine once -

after that i get the following error message
  ufraw

(ufraw:16083): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib

(ufraw:16083): Gdk-WARNING **: cannot set locale modifiers

*Floating point exception*


When I use the command line to open an image using ufraw it accesses the 
image and when i do a save it just goes blink and i get the 
"floating point exception message"


what should I do to figure out whats wrong.

***
On another note for nikon digital camera users this is a cool tool to 
process the .nef (raw images)

thanks

ram
