I don't think it's related, but well if someone a solution for > both it would be cooool ;) Well, I've no idea about beagle either ;-) In the case of kio_thumbnail, bugs.kde.org has several reports, some of which marked as unconfirmed despite several submissions and comments describing the same issue - and ranging from older kde versions to quite recent (3.5.5) ones. I've added my own report there, but people don't make a "very interested" impression. What really bugs me is that I can reproduce the problem by my daily use - and having the machine unusable for sth like 20 minutes is not exactly fun (unless I reboot of course - no, I get no chance to kill the bastard, not even ctrl-alt-bksp). Oh well... back to good ol' CLI then... Greetings, Eric

by Yves Glodt

Hi, mod_proxy currently drives me crazy. I have a webserver running sarge, which has a local network connection to a windows box running a fastreport server I have this bit of configuration in sarges apache: ProxyPass /test http://192.168.0.1:1234/result Connecting to this through the local network works (from windows->sarge): http://192.168.0.1:1234/result?report=test.fr3&format=pdf (I get the pdf) But this does not: http://www.mysite.net/test?report=test.fr3&format=pdf It seems to attack the windows box with the correct url, but somehow it does not get the pdf file back. Is redirects my browser to this non-existing url: http://www.mysite.net/sid_f1052558031/result.pdf Here a part of the apache log: [Thu Nov 09 16:20:59 2006] [debug] /home/skx/apache2-2.0.54/build-tree/apache2/modules/proxy/proxy_http.c(67): proxy: HTTP: canonicalising URL //192.168.0.1:1234/result [Thu Nov 09 16:20:59 2006] [debug] /home/skx/apache2-2.0.54/build-tree/apache2/modules/proxy/mod_proxy.c(418): Trying to run scheme_handler [Thu Nov 09 16:20:59 2006] [debug] /home/skx/apache2-2.0.54/build-tree/apache2/modules/proxy/proxy_http.c(1075): proxy: HTTP: serving URL http://192.168.0.1:1234/result?report=test.fr3&format=pdf [Thu Nov 09 16:20:59 2006] [debug] /home/skx/apache2-2.0.54/build-tree/apache2/modules/proxy/proxy_http.c(186): proxy: HTTP connecting http://192.168.0.1:1234/result?report=test.fr3&format=pdf to 192.168.0.1:1234 [Thu Nov 09 16:20:59 2006] [debug] /home/skx/apache2-2.0.54/build-tree/apache2/modules/proxy/proxy_util.c(1139): proxy: HTTP: fam 2 socket created to connect to 192.168.0.1 [Thu Nov 09 16:20:59 2006] [debug] /home/skx/apache2-2.0.54/build-tree/apache2/modules/proxy/proxy_http.c(336): proxy: socket is connected [Thu Nov 09 16:20:59 2006] [debug] /home/skx/apache2-2.0.54/build-tree/apache2/modules/proxy/proxy_http.c(370): proxy: connection complete to 192.168.0.1:1234 (192.168.0.1) [Thu Nov 09 16:21:07 2006] [debug] /home/skx/apache2-2.0.54/build-tree/apache2/modules/proxy/proxy_http.c(909): proxy: start body send [Thu Nov 09 16:21:07 2006] [debug] /home/skx/apache2-2.0.54/build-tree/apache2/modules/proxy/proxy_http.c(969): proxy: end body send [Thu Nov 09 16:21:07 2006] [error] [client 1.2.3.4] File does not exist: /home/www-data/mysite.net/sid_f1052558031 Can someone tell me what's wrong here...? regards, yves

kubuntu edgy, kio_thumbnail resource use

by Eric Dondelinger

Hi, shortly after (K)ubuntu Edgy Eft came out, I installed it on my brand-new PC (32bit Version, so as to be able to use flash and w32codecs without going through chroot). Now, I've had the surprise at least three times that the machine would just suddenly start accessing the disk a lot, and essentially freeze - for a good while. Just earlier tonight this happened again, while I had "top" running, as well as the superkaramba theme "aio". Thanks to these two, I got to see how "kio_thumbnail" simply gobbled up resources (CPU, RAM and swap maxing out - we're talking Athlon X2 4600+ with 1GB RAM and 1GB swap) in no time at all, no chance to even get a shell to kill the process. I was using konqueror as filemanager at the time, but not in any directory with lots of files. I googled a bit, but didn't find much interesting info on this issue. Is anyone aware of specific problems with kio_thumbnail? TIA, Eric

But we changed/tried a lot of config settings since then, so if you will tell me I should switch it off again with my current config I will try that... :-) Yves > soft_bounce = no > > cu, Michel

postfix & spam handling

by Yves Glodt

Hello Folks, a mailserver we administer is currently under heavy attack by spam, that is, we get *tons* (100+/second) of messages to addresses like johndoe(a)mydomain.lu. This mailbox johndoe of course does not exist. Here an extract of the log: Nov 1 19:55:53 roma postfix/virtual[21113]: 780104B0E7: to=<root(a)mydomain.lu>, orig_to=<postmaster@localhost>, relay=virtual, delay=341690, status=SOFTBOUNCE (unknown user: "root(a)mydomain.lu") Some how it seems the send message remains in one of the postfix queues, and causes a general slowdown of mail handling of the server. I just want it to drop these (anyway) undeliverable messages, but fail to set this up... The main.cf is attached. Help is appreciated... / me desperate ... :-| regards, Yves p.s. I am not an expert with postfix, the mailserver runs fine since 6 month. The mentioned problems started 3 days ago only. -- Linux 2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP Fri Oct 13 18:45:35 UTC 2006 i686 19:54:01 up 1:07, 1 user, load average: 0.11, 0.09, 0.07

Hi I have a little problem with vi In kubuntu Dapper it was possible to move the cursor with the cursor keys not only in command mode but also in editing mode. Since I use the new kubuntu edgy eft, this isn't possible in editing mode. The only thing that appears is letters and new lines. How do I turn the old manner on, to move the cursor with cursor keys, even if in editing mode? The other keys (Home,End.......) don't work either.

Proxy

Hi I installed kubuntu dapper on a machine. All went fine. After changing the proxy variable into http_proxy="blafasel:8080" , apt refuses to work with the "excuse": Failed to fetch blabla/sources.gz Cannot initialize the connection to 8080:80 (0.0.31.144) . - connect (22 Invalid argument).

Editing MS Project files under Linux?

by Eric Dondelinger

Hi all, I need to edit an MS Project file, which I have both in the original .mpp format, as well as the XML export. It would seem that "planner" is not able to open either file. Running MS Project in wine is not an option, as I don't have the program available. No, redrawing the thing in planner is not an option either, only viewing the file is not sufficient either. Can anyone point me to a solution? TIA, Eric
