Do you, by any chance, still have ~/.sven config dir with this problematic configuration?
If so, please archive and attach it here.

Yes. I renamed it, copied the default sven from a nosavefile FD and then restarted, and it worked (albeit without my customisations).

I have since done the same customisations and it works fine. I don't know what the cause is. I think it has something to do with clicking "apply" instead of "ok" as that is the only variation I have made in the way I have done things.

i have not been able to install this installation deb file. i have tried to google instructions. I have deb and rpm installation files but have not made succefull install from either on. Can anyone make fatdog gslapt packages for everyone to use and add to repository?
i think it would be a good addition.

cheers!

Ok, thanks.
The culprit is this specific setting in mouse_config (also, see screenshot):

Code: Select all

[0:0]
type=sem
enable=1
description=Paste
command=Control+v
comment=
Button mouse code is set to 0, what indeed blocks all buttons for some reason.
Did you actually enter 0 in 'Button mouse code' entry field in GUI, or it just appeared there by itself somehow?

Greetings!

One time that it happened, I was changing the default email from thunderbird.sh (which doesn't work) to thunderbird - and then the mouse thing happened.

It doesn't look like they provide the source code for that. But they do have instructions for using openvpn, which is in the repo.



Looks like you log into their website and download a openvpn configuration file. Then after you install openvpn from our repo, you open a terminal and type:

Code: Select all

openvpn --config /home/spot/Downloads/myconfigFile
Of course you have to replace "/home/spot/Downloads/myconfigFile" with where you put the config file you download and whatever it's name is.

I was able to reproduce this faulty config by adding a new action (on 'Mouse' tab) and leaving the 'Button mouse code' entry field unchanged, with the default "Select any button" text.
It produced '[0:0]' in mouse_config file.
I suspect something similar could've happened in your case...

I'm glad you were able to re-produce the problem, means I am not totally at fault / insane :)

Gimp is missing a dependency

#264 Post by h2sammo3 »

Code: Select all

Which version of gimp are you using? The default one in the beta shouldn't need libmypaint. Did you install a new version or click an appimage file?
Can you please open a terminal window, type these two commands and post their output here?

Code: Select all

# gimp --version
# ls -l $(which gimp)
/usr/bin/gimp
You should see something similar to:

Code: Select all

GNU Image Manipulation Program version 2.8.22

100% CPU blips, Running only from a USB Flash drive, no HD

#267 Post by WB7ODYFred »

100% CPU blips, Running only from a USB Flash drive, no Hard Drive or battery on Core-2 Duo Intel CPU 2.4Ghz with 4 Gigabytes DRAM memory HP 8530 laptop.

Give me some hints on looking for what process is causing these hiccups where the
1.) mouse is frozen,
2.)the Green BOX ICON in the lower right hand tray shows %100 CPU utilization.
3.)The Task Manager shows %100 CPU utilization.
4.) Sometimes can switch to another applications, at other times you cant do anything but wait until the %100 CPU utilization drops to a lessor value, and then you can switch Tabs on SeaMonkey Web browser or run a different application. Otherwise, you just sit and wait till the computer finishes.

In a RXVT terminal emulator window, The "HTOP" command shows %1-%4 max utilization by a couple processes, but nothing identified as a memory hog or CPU utilization hog.

The memory command "free -h" shows free memory available, no swap space used.

I mostly see this when switching from one SeaMonkey Browser Tab to another SeaMonkey browser Tab. But have seen it occur when switching from one application to another without SeaMonkey having been activated before.

I have run command "iostat -c -m -z" to see if I can find a process that is running to often, but did not see anything to report.

All the other applications are standard from what was originally install to USB 2.0 16Gigabyte USB Flash Drive.

So what is choking the Linux System? CPU Tasks?
What Commands can I run to obtain more information on this frozen system.

The Fatdog64 800 Alpha with Linux kernel 4.19.01 had this same problem.
I thought the Fatdog64 800 Beta with Linux kernel 4.19.10 might fix this chocking problem with %100 CPU utilization. But it did not. I ran the same two USB flash drives on other computers and experienced the same problem with booting other computers.

The Gtk-Server is 2.3.1x earlier version than the 2.4.4 version that had some problem.

Fred

Give me a list of commands or suggestions to follow. I will provide more information back here. Easier to post from Windows10 OS at the moment.

Fred, have you tried booting the same USB stick on DIFFERENT computers selecting the NO SAVEFILE option each time? What happens?
Have you tried an fsck on the filesystems in the USB stick?
Are you using savefile or savefolder?
Did you carry your savefile/folder over from alpha to beta?

If the CPU utilization icon says 100% something is hogging up the CPU for sure. If you can't identify a process with htop - it could be the kernel or a module (driver) for your hardware. What's the health status of your disk? (However, you said it happens with the same USB sticks on different computers, so the only common hardware is the sticks. Are they good-brand items?
Did you looks at the output of dmesg to see if the kernel or some module outputs warnings or errors? Do it right after boot. Then keep a terminal open, and when the CPU hogs badly run "dmesg > ~/dmesg.log", and when the CPU calms down examine ~/dmesg.log.

That package in the repo does include the libmypaint dependency. Did you install gimp via gslapt package manager or did you download the txz file directly from ibiblio?
Please open gslapt from the system menu, type gimp in the search bar, press ENTER and select the line for gimp 2.10.4, which should be marked installed with a blue square. Now select the "Dependencies" tab and click the arrow pointing to "Required" so that it points downward and a list of dependencies is shown. Confirm that libmypaint is in the list. Thank you.

Note: If you decide to uninstall gimp 2.10.4 to then re-install it or whatever, do NOT uninstall gtk2.

I have just checked both the alpha ISO and the beta ISO for which gimp version is installed, and I could only find gimp 2.8 but your screen capture shows that gimp 2.10 is installed. That makes me think that gimp 2.10 is in your savefile/savedir or loaded as an SFS or that you are booting a remastered ISO. I don't know what else to say at the moment. If I can think of something else I'll come back to this. Thanks for following up on my requests.

Mouse Click Issue is Back

#273 Post by p310don »

So my mouse issue from the previous page or so is back.

This time

Code: Select all

killall sven
didn't do anything positive. However then running

Code: Select all

sven
got it working again, although the terminal is still running with it in it, which is annoying.

I don't know the cause this time. I have not touched sven at all for days.

My last FD usage was installing VirtuaBox, WINE SFS & 32bit SFS. Then playing a game, testing to make sure my VMs all worked, and then browsing with Chrome.

edit: Upon restart, it is working properly again.

Thanks for the tip smokey01. I will keep that in mind for next time it happens (if it happens)
