Virtualbox no longer detects system theme

Hi.  I just upgraded all the virtualbox packages.  I replaced virtualbox-additions with virtualbox-iso-additions, and virtualbox-modules with virtualbox-host-modules <-- I think those were the replacements.  There were two that pacman asked me about and I chose the default answer, which was Y.
I also re-installed the updated virtualbox-ext-oracle from the aur.  So, everything still works ok, but the virtualbox manager is not detecting my system theme properly.  By properly, I mean that it detects some stuff - for example, the menus and toolbar look right, but the sections with text are giving me white on white.  See below,
>>moderator edit: Removed large image. Please read Forum Etiquette: Pasting Pictures and Code. Thanks. --fsckd<<
I used to have the problem that virtualbox wouldn't detect the system theme AT ALL.  After reading some threads, I just installed libgnomeui and that fixed the problem, and virtualbox looked just fine up until this recent update.
Anyone know what's going on here?

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ABS
# pacman -S abs
# abs
$ mkdir -p ~/.builds/virtualbox
$ cp /var/abs/community/virtualbox/* ~/.builds/virtualbox
$ cd ~/.builds/virtualbox
$ makepkg -do
Then have fun poking around in:
"~/.builds/virtualbox/src/VirtualBox-4.2.0/src/VBox/Frontends/VBoxManage/"
"~/.builds/virtualbox/src/VirtualBox-4.2.0/src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox/"
When you're done, build and tell pacman to install it with:
$ makepkg -si
Edit: Then again, you should probably ask on their forum or IRC channel (#vbox on freenode).

  • [SOLVED] Network interface enp2s0 no longer detected

    Hello,
    Yesterday after rebooting, right after Grub, systemd-fsck does its stuff (clearing blocks, etc...) then nothing.
    After a quick research I've found that removing "quiet" from the Grub command line would allow more messages to be displayed, which was quite helpful.
    This is in fact not a partition mounting problem, here is what I have:
    [ OK ] Started Accounts Service.
    [ TIME ] Time out waiting for device sys-subsytem-net-devices-enp2s0.device
    [ DEPEND ] Dependency failed for dhcpcd on enp2s0.
    [ OK ] Reached target Multi-User System.
    [ OK ] Reached target Graphical Interface.
    I obviously have a networking problem (and probably a "Graphical Interface" or Nvidia related thing problem), so I log in another console, and after doing ip link list, I only have the loopback listed, no enp2s0 or WiFi interface, for some reason they are no longer detected.
    I've run the live version of Arch to mount and arch-chroot my partitions, not to mention my network interfaces are detected and I can upgrade things with pacman, I've tried to disable dhcpcd on enp2s0 to avoid the time out thing, and while I can say it does what it's supposed to do, it doesn't solve anything anyway since I'm still stuck at Reached target Graphical Interface. (and don't have any network access, to state the obvious).
    I've even thought about a Kernel/Driver problem after an update, but I'm not sure, any idea or some log I can have a look at ?
    Thank you for your time.

  • Running GNOME apps in Xfce; not detecting GTK+ theme

    I primarily use Xfce4 as my desktop environment, but with some GNOME apps such as file-roller and gedit. It appears that GNOME apps no longer detect the current GTK+ theme while using Xfce. They just use the horrible, blocky default theme. This seems to have started after an update about a month ago, and reinstalling the system didn't fix it. Has anyone else had this problem? Any help is appreciated.

    I had the same problem. Searching the forums, the solution for me was to :
    pacman -S gnome-themes-standard
    And then a symbolic link to gtk3 theme :
    ln -s /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-3.0 ~/.config/
    This way the new gedit or fileroller use the Adwaita theme while normal Xfce programs use the one I set in Appearance settings.
    Hope this helps you too.
    Hi,my friend, You are right! Thank you very much!!!

  • URGENT HELP NEEDED - iPhone 3Gs no longer detected or charged by MacBook

    My iPhone 3Gs (3.1) has been running fine, until several hours ago today, when I plugged it to my MacBook, the iPhone is no longer detected - it doesn't show up in iTunes, nor it is charged. I tried opening iPhoto, and it wasn't there too. Not with Image Capture too. I tried charging it using the out-of-box wall charger using the same out-of-box USB cable I use for MacBook, and it can be charged without any problem. Then I put it into Recovery mode, and there iTunes can see it. I don't want to restore it before I figure out exactly what went wrong, as I don't want the restore process somehow gets stuck in the middle that the connection is lost again.
    I've tried reinstalled iTunes, including completely removal of Apple Mobile Device Support, as instructed by Apple. But still no luck.
    I've tried switching to another USB port of my MacBook. No luck.
    My iTunes is the latest 9.0.1, and my Mac OSX is 10.6.1. My iPhone is on 3.1, upgraded from 3.0.
    I've read from web that it seems I'm not the only one out there having this problem. But none of them seem having any real working solution.
    Urgent help needed & appreciated. Millions of thanks in advance.
    Gary

    1. I used both cables - theirs & mine ... and on several macs
    2. yes, same cable for wall & mac
    3. as said, i did completely remove & install itunes (incl. apple mobile device support), as instructed on the apple webpage
    anyway, did a restore just now. it seems okay now. but the problem is i have no idea what cause this, and i can't replicate the problem. so i don't know when it will happen again ... maybe a bug with os 3.1 ... others on web said os 3.1 is quite buggy ...

  • Help! My Vision M is no longer detected by my

  • Air port can no longer detect  Time machine or Airport express

    I have a Time capsule (last generation) and an Airport Express. TIme capsule was set up a few months ago and working fine. Today I tried to Add the Airport express to the network to use it in another room. Everything semed to work OK and I got the message that the system is added successfully and waiting for AExpress to start. It took for ever so I opened the AIrport utility window again and try to re do i. I am not sure what I did wrong I can no longer detect either of my device with Airport utility to set up a secure network. MY Internet connection is fine and I can connect using the AIrport to other networks that Airport detects in the area fine also. I just don´t see the net work I configured or the devices. I sure would like to know how it got messed up and how to get out of this. I have tried unplugging and restating the time capsule etc as they suggest in Apple manuel. But I have not tried resetting the time capsule. Would this erase the back ups it already has? Please help.

  • My usb keyboard is no longer detected after the power was switched off

    I sometimes relocate my Imac to another office and after the power has been switched off the computer no longer detects my usb keyboard.
    This had happened several times now and sometimes it all of a sudden starts working again after a couple of hours (but it doesn't now).
    The computer keeps searching for a wireless keyboard which I don't have. I have tried everything from switching off power again to reboothing, but nothing works. I have checked all USB ports with other devices and they all work. The problem is not the keyboard itself, because it does work when I plug it in to my MacBook.
    Anyone recognize this?

    Yes, to a blue tooth mouse only. I have tried disabling the blue tooth connection, but when i restart my computer it automatically connects again.
    I got the keyboard to start working again now by pressing all the keys one by one (in order to discharge them, read that somewhere). I helped. But how annoying is that?!

  • USB printer no longer detected by cups

  • Airport card is no longer detected

    Hi,
    This is my first time here, but I'm hoping to find some answers.
    I've owned my computer for a year with no problems (the airport worked perfectly).
    I recently was installing some system updates (think Itunes, Quicktime, and a Security one) and got an error of some sort that it was unable to complete. After restarting, my airport card was no longer detected.
    I have since:
    uninstalled I Tunes and Quicktime
    Taken Airport Card out, booted up, shut down, put card back in
    Updated to new 10.4.11
    Let battery drain completely down
    The card is not even detected in system profiler anymore.
    Anybody have any ideas? I would love some help. Thanks!
    Specs:
    Ibook G3 600mhz
    256mb Ram
    Airport Card
    OS X 10.4.11

    Take a look here and see if you can pick it out:
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/security_updates/
    (I'm afraid I don't know a thing about Microsoft Fixes. Like many cleaning ladies, I don't do Windows.)
    If rerunning the Security Update doesn't do it, you may want to consider an _Archive and Install_ of the OS (which would mean you would need to run the combo updater to get back to OS X 10.4.11).

  • Hi, My network went down earlier in the week.  Now it is fine, but my macbook airport no longer detects it and keeps asking for a WAP.  When I put the password in, it 'times out'.  I'm getting rather fed up.

    Hi, My network went down earlier in the week.  Now the network is fine, I can connect through the ethernet cable, but my macbook airport no longer detects it, when prompted, macbook will find it, but I get asked for the WAP.  When I put the password in, it 'times out'.  Prior to the network problem my macbook worked fine everytime. Anyone know the answer?

    My guess is all the issues are probably related and fall back to malware.
    AVG is probably correct in identifying malware. So I suggest you try some cleaning tools other than Emsisoft .
    ones I use (all of them one after the other until I find one that can cope) are;
    Roguekiller http://www.adlice.com/softwares/roguekiller/
    Malwarebytes anti malware Free http://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/var2/confirm/
    ESET online scanner http://www.eset.com/int/home/products/online-scanner/
    So first create a clean boot in Windows using Microsoft's instructions https://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135?wa=wsignin1.0 and then run the anti malware applications.
    My outside looking in guess is that malware has set itself up as an internet proxy and is is downloading copies of itself and other malware, blocking some mail port as times as downloading more malware is more important, and probably breaking your tivo as well..
    Try the malware programs first. If that does not work I will try and talk you through some logging to see what is happening.

  • Base station no longer detected (see post also in Airport Express Forum)

    I have stuffed up configuration settings for Airport Express via the Airport Admin Utility and can't undo them.
    - Mac OS X 10.5.3 on iMAC
    - AX Model number A1088
    - Airport Utility 5.3.2
    - Airport Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow 4.2.5
    I originally set up AX on Tiger - no problems. I upgraded to 10.5.3 still no probs.
    While trying to set up a wireless connection for my MP600R printer, I was 'experimenting' to help it find the access point. I went to Airport Admin Utility for G&S (don't know why!), clicked 'configure' and set up the base as WDS thinking this would help the printer detect access point. I had never previously touched Graphite and Snow and never set anything up.
    Result was that Airport Utility/AX could no longer detect my network and I lost wireless internet connection.
    I went back to Admin Utility but 'configure' button is greyed out. I tried manually connecting to network name but had password problems. I tried to reinstall AX from disc but I got an error saying AX not compatible with the selected drive (which is now 10.5.3)!! I reset AX but I can't restore passwords because AX Utility can't find my network!
    HELP!

    Firmware is uploaded onto the base station itself and is different from AirPort Utility. Although you probably cannot confirm it without connecting to the base station, I think it highly unlikely that you use a firmware version earlier than 6.1.1 (which came out in 2004). If newer firmware is contained in software on your computer, AirPort Admin Utility and/or AirPort Utility should have prompted you to upload it to the base station, whereas if it is not on your computer, Software Update (assuming you use it) should have prompted you to obtain it. Even if your firmware is older than version 6.1.1, the reset procedure is virtually the same--in that case, you won't see the AX's status LED flashing rapidly a few seconds after you start holding the reset button, and you will just need to hold the reset button for 10 full seconds.
    Once you connect to the base station, you should be able to see the firmware version (e.g., "Base Station Vx.x" where x.x is the firmware version) on the opening screen of AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow, when the base station is highlighted. I imagine that AirPort Utility shows similar information. I believe that in AirPort Utility, you can also check to see if newer firmware is available from Apple (choose "Check for Updates" in the AirPort Utility menu). To the best of my knowledge, the most current firmware version for AirPort Express is 6.3.

  • MyBookLive drive no longer detectable on network

    I am having trouble with my MyBookLive network drive. Ever since I rebooted it, it is no longer detectable on the network. It is correctly connected to the router but the router just doesn't seem to pick up that there is a network drive attached to it. I know it is not an issue with the router as I tried a completely different router but the exact same behavior is observed. Also this exact same setup was working fine without a problem before I rebooted the drive. The drive powers up fine and I can hear it spinning and even the LEDs next to the Ethernet cable light up; it's just not being detected on the network. So I detect it is a problem with the drive's network adapter not being able to obtain an IP address from the router. Please advise me how to proceed in order to resolve this issue.

    Hi, Thanks for your replies and suggestions. The short answer is, yes I tried everything and the issue is still the same. The drive is just not recognisable on the network at all and not visible in the list of attached devices on the routers web page. The front LED on my drive has NOT worked for the past year at least, but despite that, it has never effected the operation of the drive. So unfortunately we cannot use it to diagnose the problem. I did try to reset the drive using the reset button at the back however it does not seem to do anything. I cannot notice the drive rebooting or maybe because the front LED is doesn't work, it is not obvious whether the reset has actually been triggered or no. Regardless, it has NOT resolved the problem. I did try a different router and Ethernet cable but the issue does indeed remain the same. Pinging the device fails because the drive is not recognizable on the network at all, even though it is powered on (I can feel it running) and connected to the router correctly, and even the LEDs on either ends of the Ethernet cable are alight. I tried the direct connection to the computer without a router but the same is observed. I cannot see the drive on the network and hence ping fails with this setup as well. So I think it is either an issue with the drives network adaptor or operating system. Is this something that can be repaired do you think? Thanks again 

  • My iMac no longer detects my apple external monitor

    As a teacher, I moved classrooms this school year.  After the move, my external monitor is no longer detected by my iMac.  I've connected the cords just as they were previously.  When I go to the Systems Preferences > Display, there is no Arrangement tab.  Please help!

    Hello cbecnel
    There are a few things to try and they are outlined in the article below. One is to try a different cable and another one would be to try that display with another computer to help isolate the issue.

  • My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?

    My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?
    The connections just stopped yesterday. Both laptops work OK when connected by ethernet cables and my main PC running XP64 connected also by ethernet is not affected.
    Both laptops can see my neighbour's wireless network and worked OK with my son-in-laws network last night when I took them over to his house.
    Can I assume that the "wireless component has died?
    Any recommendations for a direct updated replacement?
    I'm currently connected to NTL broadband but may at sometime switch to Sky broadband in the future but I understand that I would not be able to do this with my NTL phone line.
