I believe gmail _requires_ OAUTH2 authorisation for "non-secure apps"
nowadays - which is pretty much all apps except gmails own.

See https://www.claws-mail.org/faq/index.php/Oauth2 for how to set it
up (It's a bit complicated) - I have stopped using gmail with
claws-mail, and don't use gmail very much. (They do a very bad job at
following mail standards, which your problem is a good example of).

My suggestion is to use another mail provider if possible.

Which desktop environment are you on? - I think I might have seen
somewhere that you are on Xfce (but I am not sure) -

in that case - see

https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4/faq#firefox_jumps_between_workspaces_why

which might be the cause of your problems. Change that setting to something you

I finally solved this by simply removing Thunar completely from my
install. Then finally firefox uses caja as wanted.

This unfortunately removes the Xfce task, but I install my needed
packages by hand, so I can live with that.

My problem is basically solved, but I would love to find a way to set
caja as default dbus filemanager without needing to uninstall thunar.

Firefox / dbus standard file browser application

[Andreas Ronnquist]

I'm Debian stable, Xfce desktop, and have recently gone from Chromium
to firefox-esr.

Now I discover that in Firefox, pressing "open containing folder" in
the "downloaded files" list, opens Thunar, but I want it to open Caja
which I use as default file browser. 

I have already set it where I have found it in settings, as in
the "default programs" dialog, and other places, but it seems like
Firefox uses dbus to get which file browser to use.

Where do I set dbus and Firefox to use Caja instead of Thunar?

Hi

Thanks - I have tried with both lowering the range between the mouse to
the receiver, but that doesn't help (It's at about 30 cm now) - in fact,
it is the same if I swap to a corded mouse (Also logitech, if that would
matter). Really frustrating stuff. Sometimes it goes away, and I think
the problem is solved, but without exception, the problem comes back
(within minutes).

It could be that both those mice are indeed broken - but to me that
seems unlikely (I won't rule it out though).

Testing with yet another mouse (non Logitech) the problem is gone.

Inget beslut är taget ännu. Jag ville bara informera att OFTC har dom
flesta av Debians övriga IRC-kanaler (och även en #debian.se), och
argumentera för att det kan vara bra att ha alla kanaler samlade på
samma server. 

Dessutom handlar det inte om att flytta någonting - Det handlar om en
länk på svenska delen av Debian-webben, det är inga IRC-kanaler som
kommer att stängas ner, utan det handlar _bara_ om vad som länkas från
Debianwebben.

Om du tolkar punkterna som att jag har attityd, så kan jag meddela att det
inte var det som var meningen.

dbgsym packages are available from the Debian repositories - please add

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-debug/ unstable-debug main


And then simply install the package

I am not 100% sure I am understanding you correctly, but the short
keyID for a gpg key is the _last_ 8 characters and not the 8 first -
With the key you describe above, the short keyID is C857C906.

Edit 

$(HOME)/.claws-mail/accountrc

and change every line containing "config_version" from 3 (which it is in
the version from testing) to 2 - once for each account you have.

I have done this recently, and didn't notice any regressions.

Also, notice that claws-mail 3.17.1 is available from backports.

It looks in your output like you are using Xfce - what is set in

also test

which is a Xfce specific way. See

That's the point - the version in stable-security, which version-number

In Debian-stable there is no fixed version, but you have to build one

Jag har för mig att jag hade samma problem med Wine från
Debian-förråden, och kör istället framgångsrikt paketet winehq-stable
(vilket för närvarande är Wine 2.0.1) från Wines eget förråd:

https://wiki.winehq.org/Debian

Detta på Stretch, linux 4.9.0 (standardkärnan för Stretch), Firefox ESR
52.2.0 (32-bitars) för Windows.

Flash och strömning med min TV-tjänst fungerar fin-fint.

Not in a way that I don't expect, the bitmap is the same, but the
different screens have different pixel size, so it looks smaller on my
bigger screen. (This is not part of my problem).

My problem is where it is a completely different mouse
image (different size) depending on where on the screen I have the
mouse - 

I have uploaded an (somewhat bad) image of the different mouse sizes
here:

Mouse pointer _sometimes_ too big

[Andreas Ronnquist]

Hi!

I have just got myself a new nice monitor, and after setting it up and
playing around with settings I have a problem where my mouse cursor is
sometimes showing too large.

Most GTK2-programs shows the mouse too large, except Firefox, which
shows it normal size _except_ when hovering the window titlebar. 

(Actually, I just discovered in Firefox that when pressing the menus to
activate the submenus the mouse gets bigger too).

This is on Xfce, Debian stable with some backports (Kernel and Nvidia
drivers), Geforce 1070 graphics card, two monitors connected, 2560x1440
+ 1920x1200.

My Xfce Mouse & pointer settings has pointer size set to 16, and Xfce
DPI is set to 96.

Where should I start to look for problems?

And there is a menu option when right-clicking a tab (if there is
more than one tab open in Pluma) - "Move to New Window"

(Both these options are on Pluma 1.16.0, from unstable - the
functionality might not be available in older versions).

See #851968 [1] - you will need to install the packages gir1.2-vte-2.91

Det finns alltid MD5SUM och SHA1SUMS och dylikt för släppt media - se i
samma mapp som du hämtade aktuell ISO-fil. Exempelvis, iso-filen som
länkas från förstasidan på www.debian.org heter

http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.2.0/multi-arch/iso-cd/debian-8.2.0-amd64-i386-netinst.iso

och för den hittas MD5 och SHA1 i
http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.2.0/multi-arch/iso-cd/

Därifrån länkas https://www.debian.org/CD/verify , 
Där du kan hitta mer detaljerad information om hur det skall användas.

Jag kan naturligtvis ladda ner källkoden och bygga den själv (vilket

Du skulle kunna testa shotwell, som finns paketerat i Jessie. Dock, jag
använder varken f-spot eller shotwell själv, så jag är fel person att
bedöma dess brister eller fördelar. Dessutom så har shotwell det nya
gränssnittet som många andra Gnome3-program tyvärr har fått och som jag
har extremt svårt för (Speciellt eftersom jag inte använder Gnome
själv).

Men, jag hittade detta:

Re: Regression ger suddig bild under Linux 2.6.38

 Hej!
 
 Kör Debian testing (wheezy) och för någon vecka sedan uppgraderades
 Linux-kärnan från linux-image-2.6.32-5-686 2.6.32-31 till
 linux-image-2.6.38-2-686 2.6.38-3. Då fick jag en regression i form av
 att det blev suddigt i två horisontella band på min nya fina bildskärm.
 Med 2.6.38 tycker bildskärmen att video-signalen är i 1920x1198, inte
 1920x1200 som med 2.6.32. Datorn verkar anse att upplösningen är
 1920x1200 oavsett.
 

Kör du intel-drivrutinerna som är packeterade i Wheezy, eller en
egenbyggd verison?

Det ser ut som om Wheezy (än så länge) har 2.14.0 packeterad -
Uppströms så släpptes dock 2.15.0 bara här om dagen, vilken inte verkar
ha hunnit packeteras i Debian ännu - se

http://intellinuxgraphics.org/2011Q1.html

och 

http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=xserver-xorg-video-intel

Standard-svar som uppström brukar ge på såna här frågor brukar väl vara
kompilera senaste versionen och testa med den, så om det inte är
senaste versionen du kör så skulle jag rekommendera att först testa
det. (Eller då vänta tills den kommer till Wheezy.)

Om det är versionen från testing som du kör så kan du ju felrapportera
detta mot paketet xserver-xorg-video-intel i debian.

hoppas jag har kunnat vara lite till hjälp varjefall. (jag kör inte
intel-grafiken just nu själv..)

Need to reconfigure sound on every boot

[Andreas Ronnquist]

Hi!

I need to do a alsaconf after every boot, otherwise I don't get any
sound. This is on a ABit motherboard, Nvidia nforce 590 chipset, with
built-in sound. How can I make it configure the built-in sound-card
automatically on every boot?

I am running debian stable, Linux 2.6.26-2, amd64, and I'm under the
impression that this has changed somewhat recently.

thanks in advance

---cut---

I found out a solution - Rebooting I discovered that it gave me warnings
cannot enumerate USB device - and looking at the debian forums I found
these posts:

http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=6t=39116p=265179#p264099

So - I tried to disconnect my USB webcam and rebooting, using fewer USB
devices, sound is back! No need to alsaconf any longer! The behaviour is 
consistent even when rebooting.

Thank you guys for your time.

 File a bug report against that version of libpurple0, severity

Re: Problem installing nvidia driver after upgrading from etch to lenny...

 Greetings,
 
 I have just upgraded from etch to lenny on my PC (kernel 2.6.26-2-686)
 I had installed the nvidia driver for NVIDIA GeForce 6600GT Graphics Card
 which was working OK,
 (Version 173.14.05 under etch)
 
 After the upgrade, gdm was crashing saying it couldn't find the driver;
 When I tried to reinstall it, the installer complained about the version of
 gcc,
 saying it didn't exactly match the compiler used to compile the kernel (gcc
 4.1).
 The installed compiler is:
 
 gcc (Debian 4.3.2-1.1) 4.3.2
 
 I downloaded the latest version of the nvidia driver (185.18.31) from the
 website;
 the same error message occurred...
 
 Does anybody have any hints on how to get the driver loaded into a kernel???
 

Install the package gcc-4.1 if it isn't installed already, and run

export CC=gcc-4.1 

before running the nvidia installer.

(Several versions of gcc can be installed at the same time, so you do
not loose the 4.3 version when installing the 4.1 version.)

old Pidgin problem resurfacing

[Andreas Ronnquist]

Hi

I am seeing behaviour similar to bug

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=488852

on an up to date Lenny (488852 is closed for a long time) - Is the
solution to compile a newer Pidgin, or should I wait for an update to
stable?

or is it just me?

gdebi reporting swedish characters wrong?

[Andreas Ronnquist]

Hi

I have created a debian package of a program I am developing, all working fine. 
I make the debian control using SciTE, entering my name as maintainer - but 
then using gdebi-gtk to look on the built package I am listed with the swedish 
characters wrong - how come? Using the simple editor mousepad does also list my 
surname the right way in the control file just as SciTE.

A friend of mine using Ubuntu lists it correctly with the version of gdebi he 
got, so it seems as I've got it right in the control file after all, and gdebi 
is at fault.

Any ideas to why this is?

This is on a fully up to date Lenny machine, using XFCE as desktop.

bash keyboard combination problems

[Andreas Ronnquist]

I have screwed up my keyboard settings in bash - As it is now I cannot
use Ctrl+right or Ctrl+left as shortcuts to move to next/previous word,
even though Ctrl+B and Ctrl+F works just fine. How do I restore this?
Find my current /etc/inputrc attached. I am using urxvt as my
X-terminal and there I get the desired behaviour just fine.

I have lines like these listed in inputrc:

\e[5C: forward-word
\e[5D: backward-word

But I have yet to find the correct code for the wanted behavior in my
bash terminals.


Thanks in advance

Debian-prylar svenska postorder?

[Andreas Ronnquist]

Hej!

Vart får man tag på Debian-prylar egentligen? Jag har hittat butiker som säljer 
linuxprylar (icke distro-specifika), och butiker som fokuserar sig på andra 
distros, men ingen som har nåt utbud för debian-grejer. Jag tänker på inom 
Sverige specifikt. Det verkar som dom flesta numer bara har Debian-cd's/dvd's.

Det jag är ute efter är en snygg debian-mugg vilket jag hittade på en dansk 
nätbutik, men ingen svensk.
http://www.linuxpusher.com/product_info.php?cPath=10_36products_id=507

Länkarna från Debians hemsida har antingen bara cds/dvd's eller så är det 
utländska butiker..

Någon som har några tips?

mvh

 verkar ju vara helt okej. donerar till projektet, baserat i EU och muggen 
 pyntar du bara 78:- för.
 

Tackar! Det verkar bli ett klart acceptabelt pris även med frakt. Jag
trodde väl att det skulle bli dyrare än vad det verkar bli iom att det
inte är i Sverige, men ack så fel man kan ha.

Och att en del går till projektet är ju absolut en fördel!

Återigen, tackar!

 Your grub.cfg file is only used when menu.lst is rewritten after installing

 There is an extra '}' character on line 82.
 

That was indeed it! (I guess I was too focused on the

grub-pc problem

[Andreas Ronnquist]

Hi!

Booting my computer I get the following error (nicely presented with
the grub background.) 

syntax error
Incorrect Command
(Line 45-45)

Pressing enter (or any key) gets me further to the actual grub menu, and
from that point I get no errors or problems at all. 

This is on an up-to-date Lenny install. - grub-pc version  1.96
+20080724-10 My /boot/grub/grub.cfg is attached. (Though the actual
error doesn't specify which file the error is in)

Does anyone know what might be the problem?
Help would be much appreciated.
