Issues running VLC on Xserver

[Himanshu Shekhar]

I have been using VLC for playing videos, as it scales up the video to fit
the screen even if the size of video doesn't match the screen size. This
was done using "Always fit windows" settings. However, after some recent
update (no idea which one), videos with smaller resolution doesn't scale
up. They run in the middle of the screen, and when "always fit windows" is
checked, it runs in the same size in the top left corner of the window.
Things work fine in GNOME Videos.
This is not the same everywhere, as when I login to "GNOME on Wayland", VLC
work fine. There is no issue.

Also, when I change "Hardware accelerated decoding" to X11 codecs, few
videos work well (mp4/mkv/avi), while sometimes (now-a-days frequent),
entire RAM gets used up. On running VLC from Terminal, I saw some messages
about segmentation fault.

Here are some details about my system:
Dell Inspiron 15 3543, Intel Dedicated Graphics (Broadwell) on Core i5 5200
U
running Debian Stretch
VLC : VLC media player 2.2.2 Weatherwax (revision 2.2.2-0-g6259d80)

Bueno, encontre la respuesta, y pongo el enlace por si les interesa
tener un servidor Debian de correo cifrado en casa u oficina, y con 
enlaces via https, para los amigos que no usan cifrado, gracias por su

Será necesario tener al menos una partición para /boot sin cifrar.

Durante la instalación, cuando llegues a la parte de configurar las
particiones, deberás escoger particionado manual.

partición1 → /boot
partición2 → sistema de cifrado

Luego configuras el sistema de cifrado, dentro del cual puedes crear
un sistema LVM, y luego deberás configurar el LVM para tener dos
particiones, una para / y otra para /home

Puede ser un poco complicado al inicio, pero es importante respetar el
orden: (1) /boot + cifrado, (2) LVM, (3) / + /home

Just as a stab in the dark: in a newly-launched terminal after a fresh
reboot, with no other commands run yet, what does 'echo $0' say?

There's a faint chance that your default shell isn't actually bash,
which would explain what you're seeing. I don't think that's very
likely, for multiple reasons, but it's easy enough to rule out.

I wouldn't advise that route, no. It might work, but it would be a
kludge at best, not a real solution.

Instead, assuming that the above test confirms that you are running bash
in these cases, I'd start out by going all the way to the top of the
stack and figuring out what scripts are calling what, to figure out how
~/.bashrc is getting invoked. Figuring that out should help figure out
what's going on, which should help get the rest to make sense.


Things to try include:

find ~/ -type f -maxdepth 1 -name ".*" -exec grep bashrc \;

grep -R bashrc /etc/bash*

strace -f bash --login 2>/tmp/bash.strace
[Ctrl-D]
(then search the resulting file for mentions of .bashrc, and look above
that to figure out which scripts were opened before opening .bashrc)

This last is the most complicated and hardest to understand, and I'm
pretty sure I haven't got the right strace command to get the most
information out of it anyway, but it should be enough to get things started.

You can also try searching the file for mentions of the profile files,
just in case they show up directly. (They should, in fact.)

It went to the mozilla site and pilled 45.0.1 but it was a tar.bz2, 
which when unpacked, did not have an installer script that I could find.


It looks to be prebuilt and ready to rock & roll, but where, and with 
what utility do I install it with?


Next?

Thanks.

For Mozilla's tarballs you don't need anything to install it, other than 
tar and bzip2.  Put the tarball wherever you like, the use the command:


tar -jxvf firefox-45.0.1.tar.bz2

this will unzip and untar everything into a directory named firefox.  
You can leave the firefox directory there, or rename it, or move it 
wherever you want to.  Inside that directory are two executable files, 
firefox and firefox-bin.  Either one of these will start firefox.  They 
are usually a few bytes different in size, but both seem to work the 
same as far as I can tell.


BTW, the URL

https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-latest=linux64=en-US

will do a download of the latest firefox, and

https://download.mozilla.org/?product=thunderbird-latest=linux64=en-US

will do the same for Thunderbird, which can be installed in the same manner.

Whether you want to install Firefox and Thunderbird this way, or not, is 
up to you.  There should be debian packages for Firefox, now.  I'm not 
sure about Thunderbird.  I have been installing them this way ever since 
the Debian/Mozilla debates began.  This way I know that I always have 
the most current version of each of these packages.

Well, I followed the directions at that site, which FWIW, did not work 
the first time I put it in my sources.list a week+ back up the log, but 
all I had to do was uncomment it again and it worked just fine in 
synaptic too.  So its in, and running fairly well.

CBS is being snotty and won't show me some things unless I disable ALL 
the blockers.  Thats their choice, and its my choice to leave privacy 
badger enabled.

I am getting more and more of my news from non-mainsleaze sites anyway.

Too bad al-jezzera.America  had to fold up their tent and go away, that 
was about as unbiased a news site as we had.

Haz que lo que esté cifrado sea el propio grupo de volúmenes.
Es una de las posibilidades que ofrece el instalador.

I got two earlier copies of each of two emails sent by you.  You can check the

So far as I can see, you can't, not in Wheezy.  The one you have is the most 
recent available via the repo.
http://mozilla.debian.net/

You could always use Firefox, as is now recommended.  For instructions see the 
hyperlink I have referenced.  That will give you 45.0.1.

You could presumably download iceweasel_44.0.2-1~bpo70+1_i386.deb and install 
it with dpkg -i, but why?  If Debian and Mozilla have made up, why not just 
accept it and use Firefox as Debian is now telling you to do?  It takes a bit 
of getting used to, but why perpetuate a quarrel which is over?

How did you test? By launching a new terminal (with bash set as your
default shell), by running the command 'bash' in an existing terminal,
by logging all of the way out (to the main login prompt, if not to a
full reboot) and then logging back in, or by running the command 'bash
--login' in an existing terminal?

In my testing just now, only the latter two of these four will pick up
the new ~/.profile file; the other two seem to run the commands which
were present in the file which their parent bash session used. (Strictly
speaking I didn't test the full logout or reboot, but I fully expect
that that would pick up the changes.)


Also, at least on my system, ~/.bashrc is invoked only by being sourced
from ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile. Unless your system is configured
fairly differently, if ~/.bashrc is getting run, that means that - per
bash(1) - one of ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, or ~/.profile must be
invoking it.

I tested by rebooting each time. My ~/.bashrc is sourced from ~/.profile 
which itself is sourced from .bash_profile, but neither of them run the 
echo command I've added so I would assume the ~/.bashrc which runs when 
I open a Mate terminal is started some other way.


bash --login does invoke ~./bash_profile and hence ~./profile as the 
echos are seen in the output file (in the expected order), but I must 
admit the nature of login shells / non-login / interactive shells, etc 
is a bit beyond my experience. I've never tried bash --login before as I 
haven't previously come across it.


Maybe what this is telling me is that I should run another script from 
my "login" script by 'bash --login real_login_scriptfile' in order to 
get these profiles to run first?

There's a reasonable chance that if you attack it with a

If the system you are looking to use it in is a laptop, then newer

Tell me how girl. Mine highest numbered version 
in /var/cache/apt/archives is dated Feb 14 for a 44.0.x.bpo, but the 
installed one I put back in yesterday from the repos is a 37.7.1, whose 
date is indeed yesterday.  It seems to be working, but why is it not the 
newer version?

ls -l output of archives:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 39445644 Mar 18 22:45 
iceweasel_38.7.1esr-1~deb7u1_i386.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 42916910 Feb 14 18:13 
iceweasel_44.0.2-1~bpo70+1_i386.deb

It seems to me I ought to be looking at an about screen that says 
44.0.2-1.

What do I put in /etc/apt/sources.list to gain access to the newer one?

How did you test? By launching a new terminal (with bash set as your
default shell), by running the command 'bash' in an existing terminal,
by logging all of the way out (to the main login prompt, if not to a
full reboot) and then logging back in, or by running the command 'bash
--login' in an existing terminal?

In my testing just now, only the latter two of these four will pick up
the new ~/.profile file; the other two seem to run the commands which
were present in the file which their parent bash session used. (Strictly
speaking I didn't test the full logout or reboot, but I fully expect
that that would pick up the changes.)


Also, at least on my system, ~/.bashrc is invoked only by being sourced
from ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile. Unless your system is configured
fairly differently, if ~/.bashrc is getting run, that means that - per
bash(1) - one of ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, or ~/.profile must be
invoking it.

Thanks for the export point which I have now used. However it doesn't 
solve the problem.


I experimented by adding the following line into ~/.bash_profile, 
~/.profile and ~/.bashrc:

echo "This is " &>>/tmp/out.txt

Neither of the profile files triggered the output, nor did .bashrc until 
I manually opened a Mate terminal from the desktop. So it appears that

I've even tried changing the PATH which is set at the top of

files are ignored altogether.

I think you will find that the USB port on a DVD player is only for
playing content and/or updating the firmware of the player itself.

There would be very little chance that it will act as a DVD drive for a
computer.

Buy a new drive for your PC.  Set-top boxes will simply refuse to read

It seems that the option to attach USB devices is rather for
the player acting as computer and the devices acting as add-on
storage.

But well, try out what happens if you give it a bootable DVD
or if you connect the player via USB to a PC.

can you boot a dvd iso file from a tv dvd player?

[Michael Fothergill]

Dear Folks,

I own a Samsung BD-C5900 Blu ray/DVD player.

It's meant to be used for viewing movies etc recorded on blu ray discs etc.

Out of interest, would it possible to insert e.g. a debian minimal install
DVD into it, connect to my PC via e.g. a usb cable and use it to boot up
and install debian on it?

One of my optical drives seems to have malfunctioned and I wondered if it
could substitute for it at all.

I googled around a bit and it seemed as though the dvd player is set up for
video file formats not iso files etc.

But maybe it could still be made to work in some way..

Suggestions appreciated.

That might indeed be a good idea because
Another misconception that people do not take into account when increasing the 
power on the WiFi transmitter Although the transmitter can use a higher 
power setting and the clients can see the WiFi base tramsmitter, that does not 
mean the clients will use a higher setting. Therefore the base station might 
not hear the client.
A lot of WiFi networks had to be "redesigned" when taking into account that a 
mobile phone uses a lot less power, usually aroud 60% of a laptop. Before the 
redesign a lot of times there would be failed communications a.k.a. noise when 
the WiFi base did not correctly hear the client, the client resending creating 
more noise, etc., degrading WiFi performance for all nearby devices.

This can happen at home too. There is not really a difference in "Enterprise 
WiFi" and "SOHO WiFi" when you look at those parts. In just means that in 
Enterprise WiFi there is interference inside the corporate building, so it is 
the same company who is having the problems as the one that is causing them. 
With SOHO WiFi there is interference between you and your neighbours. Whether 
you care depends on whether you like them or if maybe because of your 
interference they are getting bigger / better WiFi transmitters as well and 
THEN bother you? ;-)
It is best to adhere to "researched best practices" I think.

replacing library interfaces with DBUS and similar horrors) I ditched
desktop altogether.

That's okay, Lisi, I do that, too, especially when trying to work
e-mail with a tablet.

And this gives me a chance to elucidate on my situation. I have liked
and used Debian for at least 10 years (after 10+ years with Yggdrasil,
Redhat, Fedora), but, as GNOME 2 was giving way to GMOE 3 (ugh), I
tried some of the Debian-like distros like Mint but didn't like them.
Finally, default Deb 8 I thought was the end for me, but Mate has
allowed me to keep my old desktop the way I want it and still keep
using a current Debian, so I am happy for now.

BTW, so far I have upgraded two hosts remotely and they went pretty
much flawlessly (I have used in-place upgrade on one server
successfully since Deb 5, and the upgrade process keeps getting better
and better).  I still have to upgrade my two laptops, but I'm going to
wait until I'm completely happy with the other two machines.

How about MATE?  As a non-GNOME-user I don't know any specifics, but it is 
supposed to have carried on most of GNOME2.

Also remember you can have too much RF power in your transmitter, as
well as your neighbours overloading your system, you could be
overloading your own.

Try turning down the transmitters power.

It would be worth trying another cable all the same, wouldn't it?  Or swapping

Re: Puc rebre però no enviar mails amb Evolution...

[Narcis Garcia]

No és ben bé que estiguis en una llista expressa de brossa, sinó que
bona part d'adreces IP de la xarxa estan considerades com a «possibles
enviadors de brossa», perquè la majoria d'adreces IP no són utilitzades
per servidors sinó per usuaris, i a més a més la majoria d'aquests
usuaris utilitzen programari privatiu infectat per eines malicioses.

És a dir que, quan hom posa en marxa un servidor SMTP (que tu no hauries
de necessitar) el primer que ha de fer és netejar la reputació de la
seva IP estàtica, i estar a sobre del tema per sempre perquè els
llistadors poden desqualificar la IP per «mal comportament» de qualsevol
de les persones que utilitzen aquest servidor.

Tant gamifi.cat comn mindifi.com ja semblen disposar d'un servidor SMTP
amb administradors que se n'ocupen, així que val més la pena utilitzar
aquest servidor que no fer-li enviar el correu directament des de
l'ordinador amb l'Evolution com si fos un servidor SMTP.

The latter is the case. The dual-head Nvidia card has both monitors;
the Intel port on the motherboard is not in use.

The second (problem) display came up for the boot messages, but X still
treated the powered-off display as the primary display, so I had to
turn it on to log in. However the secondary display is currently
active, which is an improvement!

Bizarre results - the swapped primary (now secondary) was clearly using
the wrong driver settings, giving a very unclear picture, but both
screens came up.

On restoring things and rebooting, both screens came up.  I'll wait to
see what happens when it blanks the screen after inactivity.

La única cosa que asegura l'enviament des d'un Webmail és que
l'administrador del programari webmail haurà configurat correctament la
sortida SMTP, tal com a la Rita li calia fer a l'Evolution;
- servidor
- xifrat
- port
- usuari
- contrasenya

Bonjour,

Je rencontre une difficulté avec openvpn...

J'ai mis en place une solution openvpn qui me permet de router vers internet.

Je l'utilise pour éviter les réseaux non sûres (wifi publique par exemple)

Dans la majorité des cas, cela semble fonctionner, sauf pour certains portails captifs 
où il me semble que la résolution dns semble rester celle du wifi et donc les 
redirections se font mal ou bien certains site/numéro de port ne sont pas accessibles...


Au niveau client, j'utilise le widget network-manager.

Étant une bille en routage réseau, y'a-t-il des règles à ajouter dans openvpn pour

Mourad


J'ai avancé un peu, cela semble lié à IPV6...

Mon serveur VPN est en IPV4 uniquement et le réseau qui me pose problème gère les 2 
protocoles (IPV4 et IPV6)...


Si je désactive l'IPV6 sur ma machine, tout ce passe bien, je peux de nouveau accéder aux 
miroirs debian, par exemple...


Si l'IPV6 est actif j'ai des erreurs de connexion...

Donc ce n'est probablement pas un soucis de openvpn mais un problème plus 
profond...

Hola Rita,

Se m'ha ocorregut alguna cosa:

Has dit anteriorment que el servidor SMTP està configurat com l'adreça
rita(a)mindifi.com, no?

Doncs, jo estic estadounidenç, i em sembla que a nosaltres semblaria molt
suspicios que alguna persona pogués "(a)" en lloc de "@."

El meu consell és que t'assegurès de que sempre utilitzeu l'arroba mateixa.
Tindràs que estar utilitzant l'UTF-8 al teu sistema, i si de veres és
l'assumpte que proposo, al futur tinguis molta cuidada de utilitzar la
tecla "compose," o si no, configureu els teus modes d'entrada perquè és
resol "(a)" a "@" de forma automàtica.

Em diguis si l'he acertat, oi? I a més, demano que em correguis els errors
verbals de català que seguríssim cometo!

Moltes Gràcies,

En Brad
