[Bug 205496] Re: [Hardy]Xsane needs root to operate scanner

2008-05-22 Thread Martin Sander
Same here, Canon CanoScan N 650U.
Works if I change the permissions of the device node:

$ sudo chown root:scanner /dev/bus/usb/003/003

the output of lshal is attached (just the part about the scanner though.
ck-list-sessions gives no output. I guess this is because I don't use kdm or 
gnome. I use dwm as a windowmanager and use no loginmanager at all (just login 
on virtual terminal and do startx).

Installing libpam-ck-connector, and

sudo sh -c 'echo session optional pam_ck_connector.so >>
/etc/pam.d/login'

did it for me.
Took me some time to find out the second part, though..

[Bug 190515] Re: [Hardy] Low bandwidth with rt2400 / rt2500 drivers

2008-08-30 Thread Martin Sander
It seems to depend on the wireless access point you are using, too.

pre-up iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M

worked for me when I used a T-Sinus 1054 DSL AP (shipped by T-Online in 
Germany), but with the "Arcor-DSL Wlan-Modem 200" built by Zyxel, the bandwidth 
was as low as ever.
However, thanks to Cedric Schieli's post I installed 
linux-backports-modules-hardy, and it works like a charm now. Thanks for 
backporting the module!

[Bug 152580] Re: Upgrade to gutsy beta crashes because of insufficient disc space

2007-10-17 Thread Martin Sander
Confirmed.

Workarounds:
a) resize the partition containing /, or /var/ or /usr.
or
b) mv /var/cache/apt to a different partion and make a symlink to it
or
c) mv /var/cache/apt to a different partition and edit
/etc/apt/apt.conf
with the following line:
Dir::Cache::archives "/path/to/your/archive/dir";
(see #106804)

I have a (possible) explanation why different sizes to be freed are shown.
from main.log:

2007-10-14 13:10:54,205 DEBUG dir '/var/cache/apt/archives' needs '888777698.0' 
of '' (1975717888.00)
2007-10-14 13:10:54,206 DEBUG dir '/usr' needs '658960384.0' of 
'' (1086940190.00)
2007-10-14 13:10:54,206 DEBUG dir '/usr' needs '52428800' of 
'' (427979806.00)
2007-10-14 13:10:54,206 DEBUG dir '/boot' needs '62914560' of 
'' (375551006.00)

The upgrade-manager first checks if there is enough space to download
the packages to /var/cache/apt/archives. If it encounters an error here,
it aborts and reports how much space is missing. If you free some space,
it succeeds in this step, but fails in the next one, when it checks for
space to install the packages.

If you consider this behavior a bug the installer should not directly
abort after encountering that there is too little space, but go on
calculating and display the total result. Or the text should be changend
saying "You have to free AT LEAST foo MB of space" ...

I had a quick look at the sources, maybe I'll try to write a patch.

command = 'gs --version'
stdin, stdout = os.popen4(command)
line = stdout.readlines()[0]

as:

Maybe regex would be the right way though.

[Bug 125739] Re: mpg123 and mpg321 won't play audio preview in Nautilus (Gutsy)

2007-10-21 Thread Martin Sander
I don't use gnome, so I have no problem with that mouseover stuff, yet I
want to use mpg123 on the command line, and it failed with:

  Creating link /home/me/.kde/socket-mymachine.
  can't create mcop directory

So I found this bugreport here.
It seems that mpg123 wants to use arts, but since upgrade to gutsy my system 
starts oss instead.
Using
  $ mpg123 -o oss foo.mp3

Setting an alias would not work for frontends like cplay, but this
workaround does:

  $ echo 'default_driver=oss' >> ~/.libao

See libao.conf (5).

If /etc/libao.conf exists on your system that might be your problem. See

Same here.
acroread also ignores the settings made with the cups web interface 
(http://localhost:631).
It could be a problem with the gtk printing dialogue as it also happens with 
firefox, although this can be fixed by the setting 
"print.postscript.paper_size" in about:config.

[Bug 58002] Re: Some programs create root-owned files in user $HOME when run under sudo

2007-04-18 Thread Martin Sander
Hey,
bug #93449 is a duplicate of this one, but as here it hasn't gotten a lot of 
attention recently.
Could somebody file a bug where it is more appropriate? Obviously it is not 
vim's fault, so maybe it should be a sudo-bug..

I have spent some hours banging my head against the wall today trying to
find out why vim doesn't behave the way I am used to.

confirmed.
this is a duplicate of bug #58002,
it has been pointed out there that it is not a bug of vim, but of the usage of 
sudo in general.
Another workaround:
use
$ sudo -H foo.txt

$ sudoedit foo.txt

[Bug 463536] Re: msmtp-gnome is not installable

2009-12-18 Thread Martin Sander
Workaround for users:

$ sudo apt-get source msmtp
$ cd msmtp-1.4.17
$ sudo apt-get build-dep msmtp
$ vi debian/control # remove gnome-keyring-manager dependency and trailing 
comma on the previous line
$ sudo apt-get install devscripts
$ dch -i # put in a random comment to prevent the package to be overwritten by 
the original
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b
$ cd ..
$ sudo dpkg -i msmtp_1.4.17-2build3_i386.deb msmtp-gnome_1.4.17-2build3_i386.deb

The strange thing is that the changelog already contains an entry that
says that the dependency to gnome-keyring-manager has been removed,
although it hasn't..

[Bug 257135] Re: notify-send(1) can't replace an existing notification

2011-01-29 Thread Martin Sander
Workaround:
hack something together in 
ruby/python/.

As I have done here:
https://github.com/marvinthepa/cake/blob/master/bin/notify
(probably not idiomatic Ruby, I know much more Python and Perl..). Maybe I will 
add the missing stuff so that it is fully backward-compatible to notify-send 
and can work as a drop in. Maybe I won't.

@quequotion:
You can't pick the ID yourself, you have to take the one that the 
notification-daemon sends back via dbus. It's an INT32, so "tvvolume" won't be 
possible.
