Amarok Full Screen

Audioplayers by comar961 272 comments

This looks like a great app but it seems that it doesn't work on Dapper. I installed the Ubuntu package without any complaints but when I runt eh application I get:

arthur@ares:~/apps$ amarokFS
amarokFS: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by amarokFS)

Thank you for any help you can provide. - Feb 11 2007

Hi, I was wondering what the thing on the right of your desktop is. I assume that is something like a taskbar. Is it a karamba, or a panel, or what?

KPowersave

System Software by dkukawka 157 comments

Hi, I have actually solved this problem. I am using Kubuntu Breezy and powersaved was complaining that I did not have acpid installed when I actually did.

It seems that the command to execute acpid was acpid.real rather than acpid. Thus, I created a symbolic link named acpid in /usr/sbin/acpid.

Thank you for a great program, the suspend to disk is awesome :). However, I was wondering how do I enable suspend to RAM on my HP NC 4200. Is suspend to RAM the same as sleep on Macs?

Thanks again. - Mar 22 2006

System Software by dkukawka 157 comments

Hi, it seems that powersaved is not starting automatically when my computer boots. However, the script to start it up, in /etc/init.d/powersaved is there. Why could this be?

Thank you for your help. - Mar 13 2006

System Software by dkukawka 157 comments

Hmm... well I forced the install... it removed those packages and actually allowed me to upgrade my system. I did the latest upgrade and then tried installing again and it worked! I will test it out more but it seems to be working well :)

Thank you! - Mar 13 2006

System Software by dkukawka 157 comments

Hi I am currently experiencing a dependency hell... I have Kubuntu Breezy. I added the repository (http://www.teco.edu/~biebl/ubuntu) and here is what I get when I try to install it.

rthur@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install kpowersaver
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package kpowersaver
arthur@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install kpowersave
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
kpowersave is already the newest version.
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kpowersave: Depends: kdelibs4c2a (>= 4:3.5.1) but it is not installable
Depends: libdbus-1-2 (>= 0.60) but it is not installable
Depends: libdbus-qt-1-1c2 (>= 0.60) but 0.36.2-0ubuntu7 is to be installed
Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:4.0.2) but 1:4.0.1-4ubuntu9 is to be installed
Depends: libpowersave10 (>= 0.12.1) but it is not going to be installed

Depends: lsb-base (>= 3.0-3) but 3.0-1ubuntu8 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Should I just force the install? Thank you in advance. - Mar 13 2006

Great work. I love the way you made it transparent (how did you do this without using composite?).

The only problem that I see so far is that the cursor does not work with Firefox. It works with other GTK apps but when the cursor goes over Firefox, it changes back to my previous cursor theme. - Dec 17 2005

Aero AIO

Karamba & Superkaramba by AdrienV 342 comments

Fixed it!

Here is the fix:

in $Aero-AIO_HOME/scripts/getGMail.py starting on line 11 you have the following:

def getGMailNum(login, password):
f = os.popen("wget -qO - https://" + login + ":" + password + "@mail.google.co
m/mail/feed/atom")
a = f.read()
...

Replace that with the following:

def getGMailNum(login, password):
password = re.sub("@", "%40", password)
f = os.popen("wget -qO - --no-check-certificate https://" + login + ":" + pass
word + "@mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom")
a = f.read()
f.close()
...

Note: REMEMBER TO INDENT everything under getGMailNum to the same indentation level as the rest of the things in the function because I can't make indentations in this forum.

As you can see, I changed "@" into a "%40" so that wget doesn't get confused. Furthermore, during my testing with wget I found that there were some problems with SSL so you need to use the "--no-check-certificate" parameter.

This works for me. Enjoy! :) - Nov 19 2005

Karamba & Superkaramba by AdrienV 342 comments

Hi,

I wanted to start off by saying that I just got this karamba and I _love_ it. Good job and definitely a great idea. Since this laptop has only a 12" screen there really isn't a lot of room on my desktop (1024 x 768). It was getting all cluttered with karambas and this one has replaced a lot of them! Thank you so much.

Now to business :P... the mail plugin with Gmail doesn't work. I did some investigation and discovered the problem. It seems that wget gets confused because my password for Gmail contains an "@" sign. Here is the command that you call from "scripts/getGMail.py" but done in the console:

arthur@ubuntu:~$ wget https://:@@mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom/
--00:17:19-- https://:*password*@%40mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom/
=> `index.html'
Resolving @mail.google.com... failed: Name or service not known.

Running the same URL in Firefox redirects me fine and displays the correct XML.

Maybe I should file a bug with wget? Or maybe is just a limitation wget has? If it is, maybe something else should be used since I think that I'm not the only one using "@" in their password. Any suggestions on what I (and others) can use as a workaround?

Thanks for such a great karamba! - Nov 17 2005
