Hello

When I try to log on I get kicked out immediately and the following error message is shown: "Your session only lasted less than 10 seconds. ... Try logging in with one of the failsafe sessions to see if you can fix this problem."

Details from ~/.session-errors file:
"/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup... OpenSSL version mismatch. Built against 1000004f, you have 1000103f."

I haven't got a clue what to do. Can anyone help me solve this from the terminal?

#3 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] How to merge/flatten folder? » 2011-06-14 11:59:44

I already tried something different, namely

sudo find /ABC/recup_dir.* -type f -name '*' -exec mv {} /ABC/ \;

which took ages, but seems to have worked. The problem now is that Thunar is having problems opening the ABC folder, as it contains some 1.1 million items totalling  390 GB. In addition this "gam_server" process (which I don't know what is...what is it?) starts whenever I try to open the folder, constantly taking 50% of CPU. Am I doing something wrong or are there any file managers that can handle this?

#4 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] How to merge/flatten folder? » 2011-06-14 00:33:45

I tried breaking it into smaller parts, e.g.

mv --backup=t ABC/recup_dir.15*/* ABC/

and then it seemed to work (at least no error message), but when I looked at the actual folders, their contents were still there and hadn't moved. Only if I typed the command for one single, specific folder, the contents got moved.

#5 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] How to merge/flatten folder? » 2011-06-14 00:08:36

Thaks for your reply. I did:

mv --backup=t ABC/recup_dir.*/* ABC/

as you suggested, but it returned the following error:

bash: /bin/mv: Argument list too long

Any ideas?

Hello

I have a folder, call it ABC, which contains roughly 2300 subfolders named
recup_dir.01, recup_dir.02, recup_dir.03, ..., recup_dir.2306

Want I would like to do is to merge all the subfolders, i.e. flatten the directory structure, so that the contents of all the recup_dir.## folders are in the ABC folder, and the ABC folder has no subfolders. The subfolders do not contain any subfolders.

Can this be done in a simple manner, without having to open every subfolder and move its contents manually?

Thanks!

Edit: Trying to explain again...

Folder ABC contains
- recup_dir.01 (folder)
- recup_dir.02 (folder)
- etc

Folder recup_dir.01 contains files
- photo.jpg
- song.mp3
- document.doc

What I want is for ABC to directly contain the files
- photo.jpg
- song.mp3
- document.doc

Strangest thing; it went back to normal all by itself the next day.

#8 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] Rotate screen image back to normal? » 2011-02-05 01:15:32

yup. rotation: normal. don't know if it matters but i'm using an external monitor to a laptop. both the external and the laptop's own monitor are affected, though.

Hi guys,

I pivoted my widescreen (HP L2245w) and therefore did

 xrandr -o left 

in terminal to turn the screen image (the "rotation" function in xfce's settings manager-->display doesn't work). Pivoted back and did

 xrandr -o normal 

and everything was back to normal.

Problem is, now after every startup, the image is left-rotated. Any way to set this back to normal?

Thanks,
S

Just a note,

I enabled the 'discard' option in fstab to enable TRIM support for the SSD drive, following this recipe, and tested it accordingly. All seemed fine, trim working.

But: I noticed that after doing this my system had slowed down, noticably when scrolling in a window (file manager, web browser, whatever). The scrolling would halt a second or so, before jumping up or down, halting again; not the smooth snappy behavior I was used to. Also changing tabs in Iceweasel was noticably slower. Using the Disk performance monitor in Xfce4-panel I noticed the graph showed a short "busy time" every time before the scrolling would halt.

I got tired of this general slowdown and removed 'discard' from fstab (i.e. disabled trim), and now everything is quick and responsive again, as it was before. Strange, discard/trim is supposed to prevent the SSD from slowing down (at least on a long term basis), but instead it seems to defeat its own purpose.

Does anyone have an explanation to this?

#11 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » Latest #! i64 installation on SSD? Intel HM55 graphics work OK ? » 2010-12-21 01:30:27

Forgot to mention that I installed the latest Liquorix kernel, to get TRIM support. (See the thread at http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/topic … nd-trim/). And you're right, I'm already greatly enjoying Linux with CrunchBang :-) Merry christmas!

#12 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] How to make conky autostart again? » 2010-12-20 02:02:13

Anyway, I just added Conky to Xfce's "Application Autostart" menu under "Session and Startup", and now it's working. Still think it's a bit strange that the Conky part in the autostart.sh script doesn't work, though.

#13 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] How to make conky autostart again? » 2010-12-19 14:43:20

Made the changes, and

1. Rebooted: No conky, and error message: "Notification Area. The tray manager lost selection." Systray lost.
2. Rebooted: No conky, no error message, systray back and OK.
3. Shut down. Boot. Conky appeared after, say, 30 secs.
4. Rebooted. No conky.
5. Shut down. Boot. Still no conky.

#14 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] How to make conky autostart again? » 2010-12-19 13:28:04

I see. Problem is there is nothing named conky inside the ~/.cache folder.

#15 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » Latest #! i64 installation on SSD? Intel HM55 graphics work OK ? » 2010-12-19 12:50:51

I installed Statler 64 Xfce on a new Crucial RealSSD (not Sandforce controller though) a couple of weeks ago. I believe ext4 is recommended for SSDs (maybe because of TRIM support), at least I went with ext4. Works fine! I  have 4 GB RAM too but created a swap partition of 4 GB for hibernation etc, but normally this space is not used at all, so I'm not sure what to say (I'm quite new to Linux). Don't know about the other questions. Good luck!

Hello all,

I recently emptied my sessions directory (~/.cache/sessions) due to some problems mentioned in an earlier post. Those issues were mostly solved, but now conky does not load automatically after startup. I know that the sessions directory is mentioned in the conky part of the autostart.sh file in ~/.config/xfce4 (see below),

## Condition: Start Conky after a slight delay
if ! egrep -iqR 'conky' ~/.cache/sessions; then
    (sleep 3s && conky -q) &
fi

but I don't really understand if the code above and conky not starting are related to eachother. Should I add something to ~/.cache/sessions or what?

Thanks!

#17 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] Panel takes unusually long to load, sessions involuntarily... » 2010-12-17 01:40:30

I found a solution for those interested; to clear the sessions directory (~/.cache/sessions).

#19 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] Panel takes unusually long to load, sessions involuntarily... » 2010-12-15 20:30:13

Let me rephrase: Is there any way to see a "schedule" or "replay" of all scripts/processes/whatever that are set to run when you start up the system?

Hello everyone

Statler amd64 Xfce here with Xfce4-panel. I have a couple of problems:

1. Xfce4-panel + conky takes abnormally long to load after boot (about 30 secs with nothing but wallpaper). Excerpt from my autostart.sh in ~/.config/xfce4:

## Replace the default Xfce panel with tint2
##if [ "$(pidof xfce4-panel)" ]; then
##    killall xfce4-panel &
##    tint2 &
##else
##    tint2 &
##fi

# Xfce4-panel
xfce4-panel &

## Detect and configure touchpad. See 'man synclient' for more info.
if egrep -iq 'touchpad' /proc/bus/input/devices; then
    synclient VertEdgeScroll=1 &
    synclient TapButton1=1 &
fi

## Condition: Start xscreensaver, if required.
if [ ! "$(pidof xscreensaver)" ]; then
    xscreensaver -no-splash &
fi

## Condition: Start Conky after a slight delay
if ! egrep -iqR 'conky' ~/.cache/sessions; then
    (sleep 3s && conky -q) &
fi

## The following command will set-up a keyboard map selection tool when 

2. My sessions seems to be saved, yet 'save session' is unchecked in the Xfce4 settings (i.e. programs that were open auto-starts after boot even though I closed them before shutting down = old session?)

3. In addition I think Xorg is sometimes a little high on cpu usage, about 5% with nothing running, 10-15% with Iceweasel. I have no xorg.conf file in /etc/X11, should there be one?

4. All sound sometimes disappears after reboot (impossible to predict when)

5. Hibernation doesn't work, yet it used to about a week ago.

The last few days I have been playing around with compiz (now completely removed), lxpanel (removed), fbpanel (removed), cairo-dock (removed), if that matters. Problem no. 4 has been around since the beginning, but 1 and 2 are relatively fresh.

Tremendously thankful for any help on these issues!

#22 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] Error: -session » 2010-12-12 22:00:40

I kept Nautilus and followed omns' recipe, and that worked. No more error or wallpaper mix-up. Thanks a lot! :-)

Edit: Guess I was a little quick; the "invalid option: -session" still pops up now and then after reboot, even with Nautilus removed. So that's not related to the wallpaper issue?

Edit2: Marking this as solved since it only rarely appears and isnt a big deal compared to the wallpaper thing.

#23 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] Error: -session » 2010-12-11 23:31:42

Yes, seems I do. Usually use Thunar, though.

#24 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] Error: -session » 2010-12-11 23:00:54

Another update: After running gtkam and gimp the wallpaper auto-changed to the abovementioned, showing a lot of folders on the desktop (the ones in my home directory), while the old wallpaper is still inside conky. Also, the right-click menu is gone.

#25 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » [Solved] Error: -session » 2010-12-11 22:22:05

Update/edit: The error message appears in a separate window titled "Message" and the message is: "Invalid option: -session" with "OK" as only button.
