Movie Player (totem) crashes
Public bug reported:
Hi,
When having a 1GB USB keyfob / flash drive plugged in while booting a
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS default install, the FAT32 partition gets mounted in
case-sensitive mode.
At the very end of the dmesg it says this after bootup:
[17179647.74] FAT: utf8 is not a recommended IO
I probably didn't explain myself very well and/or didn't put the
emphasis right here:
Having figured things out as far as this, I don't see the utf8 is not a
recommended part of the error message as central or even as much of an
issue. Yes, I do think it's not nice to have error message thrown if
Thanks for your replies.
I'm noticing that a FAT32 hard drive partition I am mounting via
/etc/fstab does not have the problem of (incorrectly) being case-
sensitive. It (correctly) is case-insensitive.
From my /etc/fstab:

Hi Bryce,
Do you think it will be possible to test this from a live-CD?
I'm asking because I've rebuilt and mixed and matched a lot of my PCs,
and my SiS 630 256MB 1GHz PIII with that unichrome onboard graphics
hardware actually currently runs Windows ME. (Yes, I know. Pity me,

I'm having the same problem.
Maybe this will clarify things a bit:
The problem is that in a Rhythmbox installation in Ubuntu 7.10, the GOOM
visualization plugin does not work -- when visualization is active and
GOOM is selected, Rhythmbox can even seize up and almost freeze.
Sometimes even the
PPS: While GOOM now works, there still is a significant delay upon
activating a GOOM visalization. The music playback may even stop for a
while. This is on an Intel Celeron 2.8 GHz PC with 2 GB RAM, so this
probably should not happen.

Rhythmbox not display graphics if click on visualization
Maybe if the issue with the GOOM visualization cannot be fixed, then a
good alternative would be to remove the GOOM entry from the Rhythmbox
visualization menu. libvisual-0.4-plugins might be a good alternative.
Upon installing this package (not installed by default), a number of
nice and
PS: The OP mentioned Compitz. I don't think Compitz has anything to do
with it; for what it's worth, I have it disabled and I'm having the same
problem. I don't even think OpenGL is necessarily at fault -- OpenGL
works on my system, and I can use demanding OpenGL applications such as
Chromium
PS: To add to the above workaround, using not just
xvattr -a XV_BRIGHTNESS -v 24
but also
xvattr -a XV_CONTRAST -v 3000
makes the picture better, and more similar to a gamma 1.6 corrected picture.
(The default values are 0 and 4096, respectively.)

totem overrides XV_CONSTRAST to wrong
I am having the same problem with 7.10.
I have a very old and dark HP D2808 monitor.
In my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, I have set this line
Gamma 1.6
to adjust the gamma correction.
However, in Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon, XVideo does not respect the X
Window system-wide gamma correction setting.

Binary package hint: gnome
Currently, some Ubuntu/Linux applications move items to ~/.Trash/ when
deleting files, while other programs move the data to
~/.local/share/Trash/ .
~/.local/share/Trash/ seems to be the newer location, apparently it's
recommended by the XDG Base
IMHO VF's suggestion is probably somewhat useful.
I'm still not sure how to avoid that commands that might not be
installed are mentioned on man pages -- maybe it cannot be avoided, or
maybe it would require fairly involved changes to the entire man system,
so that only those see also entries are

Just encountered this bug as well. Here are my two eurocents:
The fact that '/bin/kill -L' *does* work as documented in 'man 1 kill'

Inconsistencies should be avoided. IMHO this could be fixed EITHER by:
