Pygame error after today's update

Solarwolf, a pygame game is not working after today's update.
Fatal Python error: (pygame parachute) Segmentation Fault
Aborted
I have no idea what is causing the error. I tried reinstalling pygame and the sdl libraries. But that did not help.

The self test of pygame
python -m pygame.tests.__main__
fails with several errors.
Also, I am not able to run some of the examples that come with pygame: a data/ folder seems to be missing in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pygame/examples/ .
pygame.error: Couldn't open /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pygame/examples/data/arraydemo.bmp
Could not load image "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pygame/examples/data/player1.gif" Couldn't open /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pygame/examples/data/player1.gif

Xfce shortcut problems after today's updates

Xfce shortcuts defined in keyboard settings doesn't work at all, even the default ones like alt+f2. They were still working in the morning, but they stopped after today's updates. I think it has something to do with kbd package, but I can't honestly say.
Anyone experiencing something similar?

Most probably you need to logof, go into the console and wipe anything related to xfce on your home folder and start xfce again. Its a pain to get everything as you want again but at least you avoid problems like the one you have now.
You may also see a problem with the icons, just pull tango-icon-theme and all will be well.

HP4501e "print spooler off" error after installing printer update

Motorola Android OS, getting "print spooler off" error after installing printer update... have rebooted both printer and phone to no avail... any help ideas?

Loralee,
?? I am sorry the computer is not working. I don't work for HP and cannot comment on lawsuits or other calamities.
If the notebook worked prior to an update -- and this is an entirely different can of worms and problems -- and you think that there is any chance the notebook is just in some sort of "tangled" state and not completely hosed for some reason, you can try the following non-lethal device reset:
Create a Restore Point: Create a Restore Point – Win7 OR Create a restore point Win8
If you are using a Notebook:
Close all your programs and shut down the computer
Disconnect everything (little Unifier for the keyboard / external mouse can stay)
Perform the Hard Reset for your notebook model
Boot the computer and log in
Reminder: Hard Reset is just a device Reset. The procedure does not wipe out your files nor does it destroy your Windows setup in any way. This type of reset "clears the cobwebs". Depending on the root cause of the problem, this procedure can fix a variety of computer glitches.
This does not fix severe Operating System errors -- it is just a device reset. It can fix minor problems that updates sometimes cause.

I am sorry you are having so much trouble.

After today's updates, user/library has gone hidden as a system folder...huh?

After today's updates, user/library folder has gone hidden as a system folder...is that normal? Tried repairing permissions, but still is hidden. Should I worry? thx!

If you can't cope with the Option+Go method or need the Library during more complex operations, you can enter the following command into Terminal:
chflags nohidden ~/Library

IMac looks like this after todays Yosemite Update

My iMac now looks like this after todays Yosemite Update. Is this iOS or Hardware issues ?

Well I managed to get the Snow Leopard disk out and restarted the mac using OS X Recovery. I've selected the option to reinstall OS X. I'm at a screen that is asking me to 'Select the disk where you want to install OS X'. I'm presented two options one labeled 'EFI' and the other 'Recovery HD'. I chose the later but it's been sitting on a spinning beach ball for 30 minutes now so I can't select 'Install' to proceed. Any idea what has happened to my mac? A hard drive failure I assume or something else?

Blank Screen After Today's Updates

I was thrilled to see the new kernel and intel drivers show up in today's updates, but after rebooting, I have a blank screen on my E6410 laptop, which has Intel graphics. The Dell logo comes up, then the Grub menu, and then the screen goes blank. It was working perfectly fine before the update. Did anyone else run across this?

Same problem here. How do you downgrade anything or change any settings when the screen just goes blank right at the start?
edit: I'll share some more for good measure. I'm on an nvidia gfx so it shouldn't be Intel-related. The system actually seems to be booting since I can log in and sudo reboot in the dark to prompt a reboot, which means I could technically try and fix this without seeing any output. That just seems dumb, though.
edit2: Removing vga=773 from the kernel line at boot at least restores cli visibility. startx returns "no screens found" so I'll try a downgrade.
edit3: Downgrading to 2.35, along with downgrading nvidia & nvidia-utils to 256-something as well as ndiswrapper and tiacx finally got me back to where I need to be with X working fine.

Wlan error after a firmware update

Ok there seem to be many posts about this issue but i cannot find anything that seems to work for me.
I not to recently updated my N95 8Gb firmware to 20.0.16 and found that I was having errors with WPA on WLan, previously I had no such problem and the issue only occured after the firmware update.
to add some more info I am on a network with a linksys wrt300n
I have tried wep it works but dont want to compromise security.
All computers on the network are using wireless g and the key is definitely correct when entered
any help would be most appreciated

I don't have N95, but if the firmware is updated to latest version the wpa most likely wpa2. Having wpa in place of wep gives only very little added security for a determined hacker! It will only takes 30min to an hour to crack that. Security like that deter only the free net riders. Try if there is upgrade for your modem/router, its usualy the case. For home network wep or wpa sufficed.
Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!
If you find it helpfull, it's not hard to click the STAR..

80246002 error after installing Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320

This problem prevents Windows Update from being able to search, download, and install updates.
I am experiencing this issue on machines running Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 Enterprise (I imagine this an issue with Windows Update and not the OS so this is probably affecting other OS' as well).
This problem is becoming widespread quickly.
The proposed fix (method 1) in the article below did not resolve the problem:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958056/en-us
Note: Method 2 is not viable when applying more than one update at a time especially when you are updating multiple machines.
Several others are posting similar problems:
http://windowsitpro.com/windows-update/tracking-error-80246002-windows-update-problem
http://forums.techguy.org/windows-7/1132320-windows-update-problems-4.html
This is preventing scheduled server maintenance from being performed.
Could this be a targeted attack? Happening at the end of the week before a long holiday weekend is not leaving me with a very good feeling...
I would hope that fixing this issue would be a very high priority.
BTW - There is no "Windows Update Issue" forum category that I could find - If there is, sorry for posting in the wrong area.
Cheers,
Jeff

My fix that worked...
Reviewed the operational log for the WindowsUpdateClient (buried in the Event viewer here:
Application and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows -> WindowsUpdateClient -> Operational
After review, I noticed that event 30 "Windows Updates established connectivity" was no longer occurring and that event 42 "There has been a change in the health of Windows Update" was the only thing after the error (Event 25 "Windows Update failed
to check for updates with error 0x80246002")
Even though the machine was restarted after applying the "Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320" patch and I had tried restarting the Windows Update service, the service appears to be hung.
Solution:
1.) restart the Windows update service
2.) monitor the operational log for the WindowsUpdateClient (refreshing every 5-10 seconds)
3.) verify that event 30 happens (you should see event 38 after restarting the service followed by (2) event 42, then event 30)
4.) Once event 30 happens go to the Windows update GUI and run the "Check for updates" - yay!
5.) You can go back into the operational log and see event 26 "Windows Update successfully found x updates" followed by an event 40 for each update found.
What is really strange is that I checked the first machine that experienced the problem and it magically fixed itself.
It seems like this may have been caused by DDOS attack on the source for windows updates that the Windows Update service connects to. Or the source location was having maintenance performed.
Regardless, in my case, this was not a problem with the OS or the patch but the inability for the Windows Update Service to establish connectivity.
Hope that helps somebody :)

Jeff

[solved] laggy X Core Font rendering after today's updates

I've got an interesting issue after applying today's updates of kernel, X server, and nouveau, and I'd like some of you to try reproducing it, in the hope that it will help me figure out which component is causing it. Rendering of X Core Fonts, AKA XLFD (non-Freetype fonts) is laggy. When some text in such a font should be drawn, space is made to display it, but the text doesn't appear until I push a key or wiggle the mouse.
Please try this experiment: Open a terminal (urxvt or plain xterm will do) using an old-school "fixed" font. I used 7x14 for my testing. Run "sleep 1" in this terminal and don't touch anything after hitting enter. If you find that most of the time, the prompt doesn't come back when sleep exits until you use the keyboard or mouse, you've duplicated the issue. It's also fairly easy to notice just by typing normally in such a terminal as the input echoes back rather slowly. It feels as it server-side font rendering is hung up by the server waiting on an event that really shouldn't be involved with fonts.
I'm running nouveau on a GT9400, and applied these updates tonight:
[2011-01-30 18:59] upgraded kernel26 (2.6.36.3-2 -> 2.6.37-5)
[2011-01-30 18:59] upgraded libdrm (2.4.22-3 -> 2.4.23-1)
[2011-01-30 18:59] upgraded libgl (7.9.0.git20101207-2 -> 7.10-1)
[2011-01-30 18:59] upgraded libva (1.0.6-1 -> 1.0.8-1)
[2011-01-30 18:59] upgraded mesa (7.9.0.git20101207-2 -> 7.10-1)
[2011-01-30 18:59] upgraded xf86-video-nouveau (0.0.16_git20100819-2 -> 0.0.16_git20101217-1)
[2011-01-30 18:59] upgraded xorg-server-common (1.9.2-2 -> 1.9.3.901-1)
[2011-01-30 18:59] upgraded xorg-server (1.9.2-2 -> 1.9.3.901-1)
I'd be especially interested if it's broken for anyone not running nouveau, or who didn't update all of these components. Once I narrow it down a bit, I'll open a bug (either here, or upstream somewhere). It's easy to work around, by just using a TrueType font in my terminals instead, but still worth a bit of investigation.

I had this trouble when I upgraded to
xf86-video-nouveau-git (20110206-1)
and had to upgrade to
libdrm (2.4.23-1)
Fixed by rolling back to
xf86-video-nouveau (0.0.16_git20100819-1)
libdrm (2.4.21-1)
I'm running the very latest Nouveau git kernel modules, but going back several versions made no difference.

Update all button not working after today's update

After today's iTunes update, the button to update all available app updates no longer works despite multiple clicks. Now each app can only be updated by accepting one at a time. If there are only one or two apps it is not too bad, but I had 15 today!

if you have ONE app that is no longer available or has a problem with it (access, country/location, etc.) then the whole batch will fail. *****, because you can't tell which app until you go through all of them one by one. update often

ITunes and Quicktime Error after automatice Apple update, need help!!!

So I currently have a new labtop with windows vista. I have been runining iTunes for the pass 3 months already no problems. The Apple automatic update has never caused any problems till now. Quicktime needed to be updated today, and I accecpted the update, prior to that iTunes and Quicktime was working properly. Once the quicktime update was complete, it restarted my computer like usual. Then when I tried to open iTunes this error came up:
"iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration"

"Runtime Error!
Program C://ProgramFiles/QuickTime/QuickTimePlayer.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information"
So as long as I have been using Quicktime and iTunes I have never encountered this, I tried to re-install but the error kept coming up after it was installed. Please help me out!

IPad and iPhone runtime errors after ios 6 update at one site I use

I use an I pad and iPhone 4S. Did iOS 6 updates and have no problems. However today I went to one site, the NGC collectors society ( registery section requiring sign in) that I use and get the following error below. I have cleared the cookies on my iPad and restarted, but still get the same error. I also made sure java script was on. The same with the iPhone. So far this is the only problem I have had with the new ios6. The site works fine with my laptop which is a MacBook Pro that is updated with the latest system software.
