2. In Konsole, when I'm running a program via Terminal, I see this:

Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-shirke" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
Error: "/tmp/kde-shirke" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
Error: "/tmp/ksocket-shirke" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.

 

shirke is my username, just so you know. There are several errors like this, and I haven't noticed a particular pattern in them.

This should be a bug in KDE. :xp:

 

:dozey: No really. I think the "pattern" you are looking for is that you try to run stuff as root using sudo/kdesu?

 

 

 

 

 

3. Everytime I exit Dolphin, I see this:

Unable to save bookmarks in /home/shirke/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml . Reported error was: Permission denied. This error message will only be shown once. The cause of the error needs to be fixed as quickly as possible, which is most likely a full hard drive.
It's a bug too. (i think) :)

 

deleting the files bookmarks.xml and bookmarks.bak solves this problem.

 

the permisson of bookmarks.xml is set to root after using the "open as root" option.

I think it's somehow related to the "sudo bug".

You could try setting the owner of those files back to shirke instead of deleting them.

 

 

 

 

This is driving me nuts!

If it's a sudo bug, don't use sudo.

 

Try:

sudo passwd # in case you haven't changed your root password yet

<enter password>

su -

chown -R shirke /*

 

 

 

*sigh* silly ubanto

 

 

In other news, I have downloaded Sabayon and maybe by tonight I'll check it. But before that I have to finish to backup my system, since I am about to switch my filesystem.
Don't forget to patch reiser4. http://murderfs.com/

Urgh. I am no friend of ReiserFS. It has unacceptable lags when it comes to list the content of a directory with more than one file in it. Ext3/4 is in, I mean XFS is pure awesome but has to go 'coz it doesn't really supports the kernel's laptop mode.

 

 

chown shirke doesn't really help, as it's a problem with kdesu setting rights in /tmp at runtime eh

I've yet to try reiser4, I did have reiser3 on my desktop before, but I had to do away with it so's I could use SELinux. I think I've tried XFS once or twice but meh. Didn't notice a difference between that and ext3. Never tried ext4 because whatever.

 

Also lucky you you don't really have to worry about reiser5. I hope you're happy it only took a woman's death to almost halt it's development but as long as Rayston doesn't have to even think about it I guess it's okay right.

XD lol rite as usual jay

 

The only thing that makes XFS slow is deletion of files. You may not notice this for one but when you delete a kernel source folder it literally takes ages. And by ages I mean 10 minutes minimum. Besides that it is ass fast I swear. Even with several tasks doing read/write operations at the same time you feel nothing but the g forces. X)

 

 

Errm. Did you use the Sabayon CD or DVD?

I heard slackware is good if you want something stable, but of course I heard this from a hacker so you probably have to be well versed in linux stuff to use it.

 

As for playing windows games, you can try wine,

though I myself have yet to really play with it to get a game to work. The only game I've been able to satisfactorily install and play is alien arena, code red, though my network is being an anus over ports so I can't play with any one.

Slackware's pretty easy to use. I'm not really a fan of it, but it's a pretty okay distro.

 

 

On a side note, I made the switch from Debian to FreeBSD (I grabbed 7-beta2) on my server machine the other day. The install process was a easily more difficult than something like Debian, but fairly easy compared to a distro like Gentoo. I'm really liking it so far, it's fast, and things seem more... organized than on Linux. That is, every Joe Random with some server space doesn't have a repository for it, and FreeBSD is FreeBSD, there's no dicking around with getting distro-specific packages working on it (unless of course you're installing something written for Linux).

 

The package management system on it isn't perfect (I prefer Portage to it), but there isn't a steep learning curve to it (as is the rest of the system if you've used Linux before), in general, pkg_add -r <name> will find and add the package you need with no issues.

 

I still have to run some load tests on it, but I'm guessing it'll outperform Debian.

(Also depends on the kernel you use. Maybe. :p)

 

this be the beat to rock for the street

more hot **** we givin' you more heat

Yau. XD

 

Okay, so far Sabayon offers the best Live CD/DVD thingy I have ever seen. Plus, the HD installer is pretty nice, and everything seems to be well. However, what kind of disturbs me is that even if I choose "GNOME Desktop" the software selection still offers nothing but "KDE components". Hm.

 

To me basically Sabayon is a beginner distribution somehow, as it's all pretty pre-chewed and pre-set and the goal is obviously to keep the need to go console and stuff at a minimum. A little too much KDE-flaved for my likings, but still very good.

 

there's no dicking around with getting distro-specific packages working on it
Alternatively you always have the choice to get the source code, what makes you kind of package-independent too. However, if you'd be my package, i'd love dickin' around with you all nite long. Twice. ^^;;;

Off with their heads!!!

 

I love Sabayon though, as soon as I get a new rig I'll put it on a seperate HDD (as I want to keep the evil XP for gaming purposes)

 

I also think sabayon looks interesting :p I dont know what it means when it says its HD optimised, but I might have a squiz

Code:

 

Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-shirke" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.

Error: "/tmp/kde-shirke" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.

Error: "/tmp/ksocket-shirke" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.

Have you changed the user number for shirke? If you (shirke) are the first user, your user number should be 1000. Have you changed the permission tags of those directories? They should be drwx------ user: shirke group: users. If you remove the 'executable' permission from a directory, it can no longer be opened. hth, MJ
