Advanced has the choices of: Skype: 'Enable Skype WiFi' (off) and Connection: Use port (0) for incoming connections Drop Down Proxy Settings (Automatic Proxy Detection) Host (blank) Port (blank) User (blank) Password (blank) And that is it.

NUX Skype for Linux
by James B. Byrne 17 Jun '15

17 Jun '15

I had cause to install the Skype for Linux package from the NUX repo. I discover that this package is configured to automatically start Skype whenever one logs on to the Gnome desktop. This behaviour I do not wish. However, there seems to be no option in Skype to turn that 'feature' off. Is there any way to disable this in Gnome or elsewhere? I will be removing Skype shortly when the present need for it passes but I do not wish this thing automatically starting in the meantime. -- *** e-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** Do NOT transmit sensitive data via e-Mail James B.

How can I get .xsession-errors back?
by Kay Schenk 17 Jun '15

17 Jun '15

I did some research and see a LOT of folks would love to get rid of their .xsession-errors file and I'm in the opposite situation -- where is mine? Do I have to install or enable something special to get this back. All my users are starting X with startx and the default .xinitrc. Is this the problem? -- -------------------------------------------- MzK "We can all sleep easy at night knowing that somewhere at any given time, the Foo Fighters are out there fighting Foo." -- David Letterman

Drive problem
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 16 Jun '15

16 Jun '15

I was rsync'ing data from one system to another, and the recipient suddenly started throwing DRDY errors. Now, it's a fairly new WD Red 3TB, and I'd think it was just a bad drive... but I'm really confused by this, from the logs: Jun 15 15:34:43 <servername> kernel: ata3: SError: { Dispar } Dispar? And googling, every reference I find to that word always has something else there. System's running 5.11. Filesystem's xfs. Any thoughts? mark

gvim current directory
by Michael Hennebry 16 Jun '15

16 Jun '15

When I gvim a file from gnome, gvim's working directory is always my home directory. That is not what I want. It is inconvenient for :vi , :r and :w something.else . Is there a way to automatically cause gvim's current directory to be the directory of the edited file? I am aware of workarounds involving the command line. I am aware of gedit. I am looking for a way to give gvim the correct working directory. Is this a gnome thing? -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "SCSI is NOT magic.

Two partitions with samd UUID??
by Timothy Murphy 16 Jun '15

16 Jun '15

I seem to have partitions on two different disks with the same UUID: [tim@helen ~]$ sudo blkid /dev/sda2 /dev/sda2: LABEL="/boot1" UUID="5bbc8e95-6108-41f5-bc0e-5b5f8df5ce03" TYPE="ext3" [tim@helen ~]$ sudo blkid /dev/sdb2 /dev/sdb2: LABEL="/boot1" UUID="5bbc8e95-6108-41f5-bc0e-5b5f8df5ce03" TYPE="ext3" This is causing some confusion, as these are boot partitions, and grub2 seems to be choosing the wrong one. I wonder how this occurred; I thought different partitions on different disks necessarily had different UUIDs? Maybe I used dd at some point. Would this keep the same UUID? -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

Centos 6.6 not booting on Virtualbox on Windows host
by Animesh Pandey 16 Jun '15

16 Jun '15

Hi, I downloaded the QuickStart VM from Cloudera that has preinstalled Spark/Hadoop etc. I have been working on that for the last 4-5 weeks and it was running absolutely fine, but recently I had to restart my VM. Since, then the VM does not restart. It shows the loading bar but after that it seems as if it stopped responding. It only shows a small black screen <http://i.stack.imgur.com/g4JKZ.png> and does not go anywhere from there. The log <http://i.stack.imgur.com/KVYxV.png> hangs at Setting up logical volume management : 3 logical volume(s) in volume group "vol group" now active. I tried logging in using the Single User Mode but still the system hangs at the point. I don't know what is going wrong?
