couple of insignificant problems
Posted: 13. Nov 2012, 01:44
Hi everbody !
I collect some insignificant problem since I installed rc1that I failed to solve, my experience about thoese problem is that they were eventually figured out and fixed as I keeping plug. but I'd like to speed up the process if it's possible also as learning notes .
No.1 All applications' window doesn't consisder the pannel at the bottom of screen when they are at their maximum, it's like there is no pannel, so I have to hidden the pannel to see the part of content of any application when that is at its maximum window, or I have to adjust window mannually. it's not big deal, but kind of annoying .
No.2 Wicd has a translate bug in zh_CN locale envirenment, there are two options below every connection , normally they should be one 'automatically connect' and one 'never connect' , in chinese they both show the first one. but it works just well . I tried to recompile from tar.ball, bug remains . I could miss something .
No.3 this one is less insignificant, it's that the long wait in the booting , I did add 'compact ' parameter into lilo. the long wait is at something like " udev trigger events... " , it's really long . I googled and edited this line ' udevadm trigger --verbose && /sbin/udevadm settle --timeout=10 ' of /etc/rc.d/rc.udev file . so now screen show a lot I wouldn't think it's dead , my question is why there is so long waiting in the booting process ? and can timeout's value be zero? I tried 5 , there's a really a boot failure happened once, but it can be boot again without any changing.
No.4 I tried to make a generic kernel follow the /boot/readme, I did this when I run slackware before for no paticular reason, and it worked well . I tried to do this after I installed salix 14, process went well , not error shows, but there is not initrd.gz file being generated .
No.5 My laptop VGA card has a audio subfunction, it's useless. the real audio card is the one on the mother board, however the VGA's audio subfunciton is recognized as the deafualt audio device, and both audio device use the same driver 'snd_hda_intel', this cause problem of audio. this has been a problem since I run slackware 13.37, I did google to get the answer, which is create /etc/asound.conf file to switch the sequence of these two cards, but in salix , the asound.conf file seems doesn't matter , with or without this file there is sound works, but i can't adjust the volume, unless opening the mixer's property and choose the second card then there is indicator about volume, although in mixer's property two cards have the exact name 'HD Audio generic' .
Sorry for so many question, and sorry for my english ! foutunately I am not dealing with poetry .
Any help would be appreciated !
