More permission woes...pacman and dbus
hi again, i'm not sure if i should have put this in my other thread or not but here goes...
id recently managed to screw up a lot of permissions on a lot of the major directories with thunar. And after some advice in this forum managed to save myself from doing a reinstall with 'chmod 755 /var /etc /lib64 /boot /root /usr and /bin'. Now, i'm weeding through the various file permissions as and when they appear. I seem to be having problems with dbus when i'm using fwbackups
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Crypto/Hash/SHA.py:6: DeprecationWarning: the sha module is deprecated; use the hashlib module instead
from sha import *
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Crypto/Hash/MD5.py:6: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead
from md5 import *
(fwbackups-runapp.pyw:4893): GVFS-RemoteVolumeMonitor-WARNING **: invoking IsSupported() failed for remote volume monitor with dbus name org.gtk.Private.GduVolumeMonitor: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildSignaled: Process /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor received signal 6
so i tried a reinstall of dbus, which gave me the following error
checking package integrity...
(1/1) checking for file conflicts [#####################] 100%
(1/1) upgrading dbus [#####################] 100%
warning: directory permissions differ on etc/X11/
filesystem: 775 package: 755
warning: directory permissions differ on etc/X11/xinit/
filesystem: 775 package: 755
Since i messed with the directory permissions, and did the chmod 755, this has been happening with a lot of things ive tried to install. As you can probably guess i really don't have much of a clue whats goin on, any help would be greatly appreciated
never mind, i've come to the conclusion it'll be quicker to sort this out by doing a complete reinstall.

Not sure if an update broke pacman and resolv.conf
Hey guys
Sorry about these noobish questions but I have googled and i just cant seem to find a solution.
Couple of things.
First, I did a "pacman -Syu" and update the system earlier today.
Then, I tried installing a package and i saw pacman cold not connect to mirrors. I did some search on the forums and people were pointing at resolv.conf issues. So i looked there and turns out I had
nameserver 192.168.1.1
as the only line listed so i fixed it to google servers and also restarted for the sake of it.
after restart,
I noticed my resolv.conf had these lines
# Generated by Connection Manager
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver ::1
How do i find what network manager i am using and what program is doing this ?
I couldnt connect to the internet with this.
so i went ahead and added the "8.8.8.8" server and i could connect just fine.
Not sure what caused this my machine was just fine before the "pacman -Syu" update. How do i check what packages were updated most recently ?
2. I just cannot seem to connect to the mirrors anymore although i am connected to the internet just fine.
Note: I did not change any config files unless the update changed these recently.
Here is what i see
[ibexmonj@ssy1 ~]$ sudo pacman -Syy

Last edited by ibexmonj (2014-02-19 06:26:16)I only have a ethernet connection on my desktop and i believe the only thing i setup (its been a while ) was dhcpcd
so i even added "nohook resolv.conf" to /etc/dhcpcd.conf and after i reboot its still been overwritten
and here is the pacman log for the packages i was able to update just a couple of hours ago.
before this there was an update i did on 2/12 and that went fine as well. And i remember doing a few restarts then too.
not sure what i messed up here.

How to configure the permission between folders and groups programlly?
Hi guys,
I am developing extension for permission, here I have a question:
I have a template which contains more sub folders, for each folder the corresponding group should be assigned by certain permission. for example: group g1 has "write" permission to folder f1; group g2 has "read" permission to folder f2 and so on. I assign these permissions by extension programlly. But now I have to provide the possibility (to user) to configure these permissions, that means if in future instead of group g1 has "write" permission to folder f1, group g1 has "read" permission to folder f1. This kind of change should be allowed by extension. Should I set folders and groups as input parameter in an extension, and give the user possibility to input permission type? In another word, my program is supposed to get the permission from GUI and then create ACL. But where can I set the possibility for user to define the permission? And how can I read this permission?
I hope I explained it clearly enough.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

(SOLVED) Hal and dbus, do I need dbus?
I read the wiki and it says if I don't use hal in my daemons then I need to add dbus.
I haven't been using hal, and I haven't added dbus either. My system seems to be working right, but I guess something could be wrong. Reading the wiki brings me here to ask if I need dbus and why?
My daemons,
DAEMONS=(@syslog-ng @network !netfs @alsa @mpd @crond)
Last edited by Google (2010-07-03 11:21:11)sudo pacman -R dbus
checking dependencies...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: avahi: requires dbus>=1.1.20-1
:: awesome: requires dbus
:: gconf: requires dbus
:: qt: requires dbus
I assume I should add it to daemons?

resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
:: dbus and dbus-core are in conflict. Remove dbus-core? [y/N]
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: dbus and dbus-core are in conflict
Help, please? Thanks.aesiris wrote:Did you add dbus-core inside releng/packages.* ?
If yes, remove it and leave only dbus
No, neither of them were in packages.i686. I even tried adding dbus to that file to see if it would help, but it didn't change the error message.
It seems like archiso is installing some core files before it installs my custom packages, and maybe that is where the problem lies, but I really have no idea. -
Kde authorization (polkit and dbus driving me insane)
hi,
apologies if this is complete newbie territory, but it's been a long time since i last used linux as a desktop OS so polkit and dbus are all new to me.
the problem, basically, is that KDE won't let me do anything i would consider privileged. network manager applet won't let me change wifi connections, package manager doesn't work and usb disks won't mount.
let's start with usb disks. i added a polkit rule as per the wiki:
[root@mjollnir rules.d]# cat 10-enable-mount.rules
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount-system" && subject.isInGroup("storage")) {
return polkit.Result.YES;
and i am in the storage group:
$ groups
wheel network audio storage power
but i get the following error when i try to open a newly inserted usb disk in dolphin:
Error checking authorization: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1.Error.Failed: Action org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount is not registered (polkit-error-quark, 0)
and now for network manager -
running nm-applet from a terminal and trying to change wifi connection gives me this:
** (nm-applet:1369): WARNING **: Could not create object for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/0: No session found for uid 1000 (unknown)

finally, launching apper from the terminal:
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
i do have dbus processes running under my userid, so i think i have a session but i'm not really sure what i'm looking for, and learning the complete ins and outs of dbus is more than a little daunting for what should be a relatively simple task!
can anyone point me in the right direction to start figuring this out? i'm currently seriously considering a complete reinstall but i'm not sure i have the time for that, especially since i don't know if it would necessarily solve the problem
fwiw, i booted a mint livecd and all this stuff worked fine so it's not my hardwareSorry for being vague - i understand it's not easy dealing with newbies i'll try to be clearer!
I was running kdm as root, then logging in as a regular user. I've now enabled the kdm systemctl service as per mariusmeyer's instructions, but it didn't change what happens when i insert a USB disk - same error as before.

Just a suggestion for your consideration.
I like pacman and the way it evolves. Is it possible to change the way how the targets are displayed during system update?
I know that displating all the packages in a long column is not very transparent, however listing them in line is not good either.
Is it possible to list them in 2 or 3 columns in alphabetical order?
If there is more than 30 updates it is really hard to scan through this text and determin if updates are critical or not.
CheersMight not exactly be what you're looking for, but if you enable option VerbosePkgLists in your pacman.conf all packages will be listed with their names, versions and sizes, formatted as a table.

Firefox can't open normally without going through the "this is embarrassing" routine; nor does it close down properly; I get the "end program" message and have to say "end now"it also sticks frequently, i.e. screen freezes for a minute or more; should I uninstall and re-install to try and debug?
- I've used Firefox exclusively for around 2 years.
- My outlook express has no problems
- other programs seem unaffected; it seems peculiar to Firefox.
- my main use is surfing the net, primarily entering competitions on line via specialist competition sites.
- every day at some stage(s) I have to switch computer off as Firefox has got very slow/sticky/freezes.
I'm not techy by any means, but I can only thing of un- and re-installing to hopefully start with a clean slate.Sounds like something is keeping Firefox from closing properly. See this: <br />

Can someone please assist me. I was given an iPod 3G as a gift and I tried to download various apps and it told me that my iPod needs to be iOS 7 or more but I checked and my iPod is at its latest upgrade which is 6.1.6, how can I get those app?
See a a version compable with your iPod is available:
Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
Also, if you have iOS 6.1.6 yo have a 4G (has cameras). A 3G does not have cameras and can only go to 5.1.1 -
I have two problems:
1. I no longer have my old computer and want to download the iTunes I have purchased in previous years. Aren't they all in "the cloud?"
2. I think I have more than one account and would like to get them combined. Is there a good number or email to Apple that I could get that done?
THanks!
SHawnIt has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Have you failed to do this?
You can redownload some iTunes purchases in some countries:

I cant seem to download and install the latest iphone software update. I have tried since the release and have been unsuccessful on more than 7 occasions and lost all the data on the process. Anyone have that problem an how do I fix this problem?
Hi
Thanks but I have tried doing the above - when I said 7 times I was modest, its more like 15 times.
And I am referring to the 5.1 software update. I dont have wifi so I guess I will have to try that seeing that my husband also has the same problem - he has also tried downloading several times. It always times out en says that the connection is lost but yet there are always an internet connection and a decent signal once it stopped. Think it said error 32052 or something!
I am disappointed because the update includes inprovement on the battery life - did you guys notice any difference? -
I just got an iPhone 5 32GB and i have backed up my old 3GS 32GB via itunes (20GB of data on there) and it is taking a very long time to restore to my iPhone5. Its taken more than 20 hours and didnt complete.
The text "Time remaining ... hours" flickers.
I set it to start restoring from the 3GS backup yesterday at 1pm and the time remaining kept on increasing. I left it overnight and at 9am this morning the progress bar hadnt moved and it said 12 hours remaining.
I don't know why its taking so long. I unplugged it and it just set up as new phone. So i did a factory reset and tried again at 4pm and it is now 12am and it says 4 hours remaining and my computer occasionally flickers. (Its not a bad computer, 2 months old, i7, 6GB RAM, Heaps of HDD space). It also messes with google chrome and i cannot browse the web at all while it is trying to restore my iphone.
I have tried restarting my laptop and should i reinstall itunes? I simply dont see why it should take longer than 20 hours to copy over 20GB of data!
Can anyone help me?
Thank youI'm having this EXACT same problem with my iPhone 4, and I have the same computer stats (I have a Samsung Series 7)
