gnome classic interface with F17?

[Adel ESSAFI]

Deal list
I have installed F17 and I got the  *new* gnome interface with allows
to search for application when you move the mouse to the upper left
corner.

Is it possible to  configure gnome to work with the *classic*
interface (with panel)

Regards
Adel

That is also wrong.  Apache uses the AddHandler directive and file 
extensions to decide whether or not a handler should process a file. 
The php will only process files that have .php as one of their 
extensions in the default configuration.  Thus, you can have a file 
named "sample.txt" which started with "unmodifed text.

According to the documentation and to tests, MultiViews does not 
interact with AddHandler.  Apache documents that files may have multiple 
extensions, regardless of the setting of MultiViews.

MultiViews isn't enabled anywhere except for /icons in the default 
configuration, but the standard behavior is exactly as you originally 
described.  You might want to verify that your browser isn't showing you 
a cached version of the server's response.


I just checked one of the few systems where I run php, and I'm certain 
that MultiViews does not cause the behavior that you described.

The above reminds me about that joke about Unix being user friendly...
"it´s just selective about whom his friends are".

Really, nobody thought about creating a bash script that does all of
the above?. I´m convinced that Linux needs less ´howtos´ with large
blobs of commands to cut-and-paste into a shell, and more ´howtos
turned into scripts, added to the base system´.

Just my $0.02

You probably didn't run the X core indexers.

mkfontscale /usr/share/fonts/msttcore
mkfontdir /usr/share/fonts/msttcore

assuming you've already added this

cat > /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/09-msttcore-fontpath.conf <<'EOT'
Section "Files"
  FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/msttcore"
EndSection

the xset and this 09 file only work if you've already indexed the fonts.

Content negotiation allows the webserver to hold multiple different
variations of the same data, and for the webserver and web browser to
negotiate between them as to which will be the best version to offer.

That could be a web page written in several different languages (each
actual version being a different file), and your browser (if you
bothered to configure it properly) will state what languages you can
read, and hopefully the server will offer the best match.  That's
relatively simple if there's just one match (e.g. English), becoming
more complicated if there's several matches.  In that case, there's a
weighting applied.  Supposedly, the author can score the pages, so that
one version is promoted as the best, and other's lesser (e.g. their
skills in that language aren't as good, or they used an auto-translater,
so that that page may be harder to understand).  And supposedly the web
browser can score your list of languages that you can read.  However,
I've yet to see a browser do that, it just seems to let you sort the
order of the languages in the list, and the top of the list is
supposedly considered best.  I've yet to see an example of how the page
author can score their pages, short of making explicit configurations of
the webserver, per page.

And, it can negotiation be for different file types.  I could offer
downloads of a document in PDF, ODT, DOC, or just TXT, and between the
server and the browser working it out, they'd hopefully offer you the
best choice (as outlined in the language discussion, above, some
weighting automatically picks the best choice).  Likewise, I could offer
you JPEGs, or GIFs, or PNGs, of the same image, and hopefully offer you
the best choice.  Unfortunately, with these sorts of negotiated
offerings, the usual consideration seems to be merely be picking the
smallest size file.  And most browsers default configuration says that
they'll accept ANY type of file, never mind if that file is actually
supported on your system.  So you can still get offered file types that
you can't actually use.

In any case, language or file type of negotiation, the server uses the
filename as part of the process.  Particularly the file suffix.  And
multiple file suffixes are allowed.  i.e. example.php.txt is a PHP file
(to be treated as a PHP file), *AND* a text file.  As you've found out,
there are problems when you use file suffixes with competing purposes.

For fun and games, you could see what happens with example.jpg.txt and
example.txt.jpg, with images and text files tried with either names.
Similar games with example.html.txt and example.txt.html can be rather
confusing (serving HTML or plain text).  Even more so when you try to
browse using a non-compliant browser, like MSIE, which pays scant
attention to the MIME type sent by the server, and snoops at the file
data content, instead.  Hence, the many misconfigured web servers that
seem to work, because the webmaster knows not what they're doing.  And
hence the many infected Windows machine, because the browser executed
the executable program that was deliberately sent to the browser with a
safe MIDI filetype description, the browser allowing such a safe thing,
then automatically doing what it does with the executable program that
it found, instead.

But, if you're not using content negotiation, and you don't appear to
be, and most people probably do not use it.  You can, and probably
should, disable the feature.  It'll mean less work for the server, and
less chance of surprises.

Thanks for that link. xfontsel uses the X core fonts (old system) and it 
doesn't list ms fonts (nor xlsfonts does).
I followed the guide and added /usr/share/fonts/msttcore/ to the font path in 
xset after creating the fonts.dir etc. but it doesn't make any difference.
I'm using Fedora 17.

But no problem.

Sergio,

have a look here ...

http://how-to.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_install_and_use_X-Windows_fonts

xfontsel is part of X core fonts.

fc-list will list the fonts known to Xft fonts.

xlsfonts will list the fonts known to X core.

Yes, I believe the rpm I pointed to should setup the fonts for xfontsel.  I
don't have it installed so I can't check it.  What version and flavour of
linux are you running?  I tested for this, and the ms core tt fonts showed
up in both Xft and X core lists.

In the default configuration, .php.txt will use the php handler, because

Instead of adding .txt (and thus adding a second extension), replace 
.php with .txt.

  The extension argument is case-insensitive and can be specified with

  the extension argument will be compared against each of them.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_mime.html#multipleext
  For example, if you wish to have the file foo.html.cgi processed as a

Pleasure to offer some help, Tom.

I've been struggling/learning with Apache for many years.  It is a very 
powerful tool.


MultiViews has to do with a thing called "Content Negotiation".  Helpful 
in multilingual situations where it may be desired to return something 
in a specific language, whether content or error pages.


*Very clever people could think up other uses*

Unfortunately it can match and grab the wrong files if allowed to roam 
or is not properly tethered.  Only enable MultiViews for resources that 
absolutely require them.  Make sure to specify the Directory, Location, 
or File directives when using it.


For further head explosion refer please refer to
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/content-negotiation.html



Thanks.

P.S. I'm not sure "widely known" is a phrase that should

On my local system I have apache running so I can test web pages
before I upload them to my ISP.

I have a sample .php script which I explicitly named with

file, not a php script.

Yet apache is clearly running the php script rather than just
uploading the plain text copy of the script when I click
on the link to the .php.txt file.

Anyone have any clue what is causing this to happen?
I can't imagine this is something that would be desirable
behavior :-).

I made it stop by turning off php completely in the
subdirectory holding the pages, but I still what to
understand what on earth was making it run the script
in the first place.

Yep, I use Thunderbird with my gmail accounts. The problem with yahoo is that 
it doesn't have IMAP so:
- you have to download the messages.
- they (AFAIK) become unavailable in the web interface.
So for my yahoo mail I use the web interface.
The good thing about yahoo is its disposable addresses.
It has a 'new' mail interface (available since some time already) and maybe 
it's friendlier but I'm sticking with the classic.

In addition to what others already wrote, check if you aren't running
out of memory (run "df" and check its output).


df tells you about free disk space.
Yes - My fault. I probably should have written "disk space" instead of 
"memory".



It has nothing whatever to do with
RAM,

It depends. C.f. tmpfs, RAM disks etc.


besides which a lack of disk space (even in swap) would cause a
system error message, not a segfault.
When running out of memory, inside of a program a malloc may fail, which 
may cause a pointer be set something invalid, which later may cause a 
SEGFAULT when the pointer is dereferenced.


All in all, when running out of memory (or swap or tmpfs), all kind of 
weird errors can happen - I've seen the weirdest things happen is such 
occasions ;)

possibly related issue, I'd like to push deeper on overtemp behavior.

I live on The coast where temp is usually moderate, but last week
we got real close to triple digits.

my PC (asus MB, Intel CPU, < 2 yrs old) is running F16.

when i got home, my dmesg had a number of cpu overtemp msgs,
eg 74K event recorded, see hw logs.

i could hear the cpu fan behaving strangely, it would speed up, then fall
off and repeat.
it was like someone in a car, pushing the accelerate to the floor, letting
off and as soon as the engine(fan) slows down, it repeats.

I assumed, apparently in error, some damage was done to my MB, heat sensor,
other.

I prepare for a maintenance windows Sat am, i shutdown and booted to bios,
hoping to find a diagnostics menu to get a better diagnosis for the repair
folks.

i could not find any diagnostic option despite a monitor context where cpu
fan appeared ok.

i rebooted to Linux and she has been fine.

so now my query, does anyone know of the Linux kernel could have been
speeding up the fan or was it likely the MB driving that HW behaviour?

anyone got a clue about this; looking to be better prepared for next time,
...

tia, jackc...

Good advice for everyone. I have two cats and the PC sits on a carpeted
floor under my desk.  It gets full of dust, hair, and I'm not sure what
much faster that I like to think about.  I use Dust-Off about every six
weeks to make sure it runs cool.

Re: installing Microsoft fonts: chkfontpath not found

[manifestoe]

Try this instead ...

rpm -i
https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/mscorefonts2/rpms/msttcore-fonts-installer-2.2-1.noarch.rpm

This rpm installs the fonts from sourceforge at install time, it does not
contain the fonts.  In addition, it pulls in updated fonts from the EUupdate
font set, and installs the fonts correctly to X core and Xft.

chkfontpath is old.  mkfontscale, mkfontdir, fc-cache are more up to date. 
also, /etc/fonts/conf.d and /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d.

You need to use all those to add the fonts to Xft and X core.  But that's
all in the above rpm.

In that case, install and configure lm_sensors, and see just how hot things
are getting. Make sure your system is entirely cleaned from dust and all the

I bet you have hardware problems. E.g. faulty memory, heat problems or

You should run memtest after booting from stick/CD and/or prime95 to

df tells you about free disk space. It has nothing whatever to do with
RAM, besides which a lack of disk space (even in swap) would cause a
system error message, not a segfault.

This is likely. The other main possibility is that you've been hacked and
someone installed a rootkit that isn't perfectly compatible with your
system. Weird glitchy behavior is a common symptom.

As I'd mentioned, though I did call it updating, it's down to the same
process - running the installer.

Likewise, but you only have to do the backup, not a backup and a
reinstall.  So you save half the time.

DVB TV playback not working

[Andrew Gray]

Hi 

Ever since F17 x86_64  I have not been able to watch TV via my "DIBcom
7000PC" USB Freeview  receiver  
This is a Pinicale 72e USB Freeview 

Keep getting when I run "gnome-dvb-daemon :-

"(gnome-dvb-daemon:1326): GStreamer-WARNING **: Trying to set string on
structure field 'name', but string is not valid UTF-8. Please file a
bug."

This appear continually thus stopping normal TV reception 

Any ideas how to fix this

Not really sure what you mean by this. It's name is /dev/sda5 perhaps?


sudo blkid will give you uuids to match your partition(s).



Yes, reinstall


That's not really helpful.


It is actually.
Then when ready to do the move.
Ask how it can be done safely.



And that's where I'm now. Some help would be appreciated.



Ask before you commit.
A lesson hard learned.

In addition to what others already wrote, check if you aren't running 
out of memory (run "df" and check its output).

I bet you have hardware problems. E.g. faulty memory, heat problems or
something like that..

You should run memtest after booting from stick/CD and/or prime95 to
come closer to what's going on.
