Example: locate java | less If you then either use the down arrow or keep pushing Enter, the page will scroll down in a more controllable manner - just hit the q key to exit. |

| 372873 | 2005-07-17 10:50:00 | Had a look around for the error I was getting, so far no real answers, or none that work anyway. Seems to revolve around libsSDL-mixer... any idea what they do? Have uninstalled GL-117 anyway... Maybe in FC5 :D Time for CSI :cool: |

Locate is the fastest way to find filenames, but it looks in a database that may not be updated daily. In my experience, it will not find files that you installed recently. You can update the database manually (/usr/libexec/locate.updatedb ?), or change the frequency of updates (somewhere in /etc/periodic). |

| 372876 | 2005-07-17 11:46:00 | Seems to revolve around libsSDL-mixer... any idea what they do?SDL_mixer Documentation (jcatki.no-ip.org). libs indicates library files. As vinref mentions, a newly installed file might not be located by "locate". You can as root just run the command updatedb to manually update the database. It takes a minute or two sometimes to complete. |

| 372877 | 2005-07-17 12:58:00 | Had another play round.... Went to homepage of SDL, and downloaded and installed there RPM... Now I get this: Info: Found gl-117 data directory /usr/share/gl-117 Info: Startup gl-117, V1.3 ... Info: Loading /home/tazzy/.gl-117/conf Info: Saving /home/tazzy/.gl-117/conf Info: Loading /home/tazzy/.gl-117/conf.interface Info: Saving /home/tazzy/.gl-117/conf.interface Warning: Could not load saves/pilots Warning: Could not load pilot Info: Using SDL and GLUT Info: Using SDL_mixer Fatal: Cannot open winner.s3m: Unrecognized music format Ok looking better, can anyone give me ideas about this error... (I will look properly tomorrow but ideas would be helpful) BTW I have Kaffeine (Xine) installed, as well as Xmms.... Would a codec for either of those help.... any idea where to get one? Incidentally s3m I believe is a music sampler file? |
