Solved, Cheese 3.2 Error In Ubuntu 11.10 : Clutter-CRITICAL **: Unable to initialize Clutter: The OpenGL version could not be determined

Written By Unknown on Saturday, 14 April 2012 | 21:00


Cheese is a “cheesy” app to take photos or videos from your webcam. This is a part of GNOME project so it comes altogether with GNOME release. Cheese 2.32 is a part of GNOME 2.32, Cheese 3.0 is a part of GNOME 3.0, and so on.


This is a very cute app. We could take photos with several cute effects, and so, I love this app. But, in Ubuntu 11.10, the Cheese 3.2 couldn't be loaded in any computer that doesn't have GLX/3D supported Graphic Card/VGA (Intel, ATI, Nvidia). Just like in my old Pentium4 with onboard SiS 661 FX, Cheese 3.2 couldn't be loaded and resulted this error message :


(cheese:2352): Clutter-CRITICAL **: Unable to initialize Clutter: The OpenGL version could not be determined.


This error occurred because of Clutter, a new graphic library on GNOME 3 project and this library is absolutely “arrogant”. This app wouldn't load itself in any old non-GLX supported Graphic Cards so any apps that depends on it, wouldn't be loaded too (this is why, Ubuntu still stay with Totem 3.0, the last Totem that doesn't depend to Clutter).


So, is there any problem solving for this? I can answer this : no! We must upgrade our graphic cards into GLX-supported one like Nvidia or ATI; or we must seek another webcam app, another Cheese equivalent.


If we have some money, we could purchase GLX supported Graphic Cards, but if not, we have to look for another webcam app, and I've found this! The app we look for this is : KAMOSO. Kamoso is Cheese like app in KDE SC. This app is just very similar to Cheese but without effects (at the version when I wrote this post). In Ubuntu, it could be installed easily from repo :


sudo apt-get install kamoso


And now, though without cute effects, I could take my photos or videos from my webcam, by using Kamoso :)


System Comparison :

SiS 661 FX OnBoard Graphic Card

Ubuntu 11.10

Kamoso 2.0.2

KDE 4.7.1

Solved! : Trouble solving of Bluetooth Set up new device failed error. An error of Bluetooth device pairing of Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx

Written By Unknown on Saturday, 22 January 2011 | 07:33

Personal File Sharing Preferences menu





Nokia 2330-c mounted as a removable media



Set up completed



The key is in "introducing" our cellphone first to the system



Previous days, I was very annoyed by an error (perhaps that was a bug) of Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx. The error was I couldn't make bluetooth pairing between my computer and my cellphone. I often use bluetooth connection to transfer any files, from and to computer-cellphone (photos, Java applications). In the previous versions of Ubuntu (9.04 and the below), I never get any trouble to make bluetooth pairing. But in Ubuntu Lucid, I got my pairing process failed in the 'Set up new device' step. For so many times I'd tried, but I always got an error. Again and again I tried to make pairing and always been failed. I didn't know where the mistake was, but when I followed the wizard, I always got the error. At last, I got myself desperate because of its error and for long time I gave up and had been lost my interest to find the solution.



But recently, in the rest time, I made an experiment and unintentionally, I got the trouble solving. The key is we don't have to follow the wizard which the first step is 'Set up new device', but we could “introduce” our cellphone first, by sending it a file from our computer, and then we could follow the wizard. This is surely works to me. I can successfully receive and send files from my computer. Also, I can successfully 'Browse the device' so I can see my cellphone being visible just look like a removable media.



These are the steps to make a bluetooth pairing between Ubuntu 10.04 and cellphone:

  1. Plug the bluetooth dongle in; Or in some laptops, switch the internal bluetooth on :)

  2. Switch our cellphone bluetooth on.

  3. At the bluetooth icon in the notification area in the upper panel, click and select 'Send files to device'.

  4. Select any file (the smallest in filesize is picture) and wait for a moment until our cellphone is detected. Then, when our cellphone is visible, select our cellphone and transfer process will be ran.

  5. Go to the bluetooth icon once more, and for now, select the choice 'Set up new device'.

  6. When our cellphone is visible, select it. Leave the system to make automatic PIN selection.

  7. An confirmation about pairing process will be shown at our cellphone. We will be asked about the PIN code. Enter the PIN code, and press OK.

  8. The process is finished, and we can now use the connection to transfer any files, or to make a dial-up Internet connection.



I was very satisfied by this trouble solving. And even, now I am really satisfied by the bluetooth features of Ubuntu 10.04. I can make my computer always be visible to other bluetooth devices. I can make my computer always be ready to receives any file from any devices, without making a pairing process first.



Notes:

To make our computer always be ready to receives any file from any devices, we have to manage it by accessing Bluetooth Preferences menu. Go to System>Preferences>Bluetooth, or click at Bluetooth icon in the notification area, and select 'Receives Files' button. And then, will be shown a dialog menu titled 'Personal File Sharing Preferences'. Check all of the selections.



For the technical comparison, these are the equipments that I've used:

  • Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx with original kernel

  • CPU Intel Pentium IV 2.4 GHz

  • 512 MB Memory

  • K-One Bluetooth USB Dongle

  • Nokia 2330-c



Mplayer, Ubuntu dan Sebuah Error : ioctl dif1 : Input/output error

Written By Unknown on Monday, 4 May 2009 | 00:07



Kaffeine memutar VCD dengan sempurna



Kaffeine player



KMplayer memutar VCD dengan bagus



Pesan error pada Mplayer GUI





Salah satu fungsi utama komputer bagi saya (dan mungkin bagi banyak pengguna komputer yang lain) adalah sebagai pusat multimedia. Fungsi itu adalah mendengarkan koleksi musik, video musik dan film, dari media apapun, termasuk tentu saja dari media yang sudah sangat akrab bagi kita semua : VCD dan DVD.



Adakah yang istimewa sehingga saya ingin membahasnya di sini? Yap! Di Linux, kita sama sekali tidak kesulitan untuk melakukan kegiatan santai tersebut. Bahkan dalam beberapa segi, ada banyak pilihan aplikasi multimedia yang kompleks dan canggih di Linux, semisal yang sudah terkenal seperti aplikasi Music Organizer Amarok.



Dulu, saat saya masih menggunakan distribusi Ubuntu Dapper 6.06, saya selalu menggunakan aplikasi Mplayer GUI untuk meng-handle semua format video populer, dan tanpa masalah sama sekali. Dan sekarang, saya menggunakan distribusi Ubuntu Hardy 8.04, saya menemukan satu troubleshot saat saya memutar VCD dengan Mplayer GUI.



Hmmm! Kenapa ya?



Masalah pertama adalah muncul pesan error yang mengatakan bahwa driver video outpot (-vo) yang digunakan tidak tepat. Dan dari hasil Googling yang saya dapat, saya harus mengubah =-vo ke X11, dan berhasil!



Caranya mudah sekali. Pada jendela video Mplayer GUI, klik kanan pilih “Preferences”. Pada kotak dialog “Preferences” , pilih tab “Video”, dan pilih video driver yang “x11”. Jalankan ulang Mplayer dan buka VCD dengan opsi klik kanan “VCD>Open Disc”. Berhasil!



Tapi, masih ada pesan error lagi, yang bertuliskan :



ioctl dif1 : Input/output error.



Hmmm! Apa lagi ini? Saya coba Googling dan ternyata tidak menemukan penyelesaian juga! Memang VCD berjalan lancar, tetapi pesan error ini sangat menggangu kalau kita memutar VCD lagu yang terdiri dari banyak track.



Alih-alih saya bingung, saya coba menginstal semua aplikasi video player di Linux yang saya ketahui, dan saya coba satu per satu. Dan dari hasil percobaan tersebut, saya mendapat dua kandidat terbaik, yaitu Kmplayer dan Kaffeine. Keduanya aplikasi front-end untuk desktop KDE. Kalau Kmplayer adalah front-end GUI dari Mplayer untuk KDE, sedangkan Kaffeine adalah front-end Xine untuk KDE.



Jadi, penyelesian dari masalah pesan error Mplayer “ ioctl dif1 : Input/output error” menurut saya adalah :



Pertama, gunakan Kaffeine. Instalasi paket Kaffeine dan pendukungnya.

$ sudo apt-get install kaffeine kaffeine-gstreamer gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugin-ugly. Jangan lupa juga instalasi paket w32codecs karena Kaffeine dapat bekerja dengan w32codecs (Paket w32codecs bisa kita dapatkan di medibuntu).



Satu kekurangan Kaffeine dalam memutar VCD adalah tidak bisa meloncat ke track yang kita inginkan dan hanya bisa menjalankan secara berurutan. Namun, secara keseluruhan, Kaffeine dapat memutar VCD dengan sangat lancar dan tanpa masalah. Selain untuk memutar VCD, Kaffeine dengan w32codecs, dapat memutar (mungkin) semua format video popluar yang ada di dunia ini dengan sempurna. Mulai dari Avi DivX, WMV, 3gp Quicktime, mp4, flv, .rmvb real, .mov real dan lain sebagainya.



Kedua, gunakan Kmplayer. Jangan lupa gunakan setting engine yang digunakan yaitu dengan engine Mplayer. Caranya klik kanan pada jendela window dan pilih opsi “Play With>Mplayer”. Satu kekurangan Kmplayer adalah, sama seperti Mplayer GUI, pada saat berganti track akan ada efek layar mati sesaat (berkedip). Tapi secara keseluruhan, Kmplayer dapat memutar VCD dengan sangat lancar, termasuk meloncat ke track berikutnya dalam VCD lagu secara acak.



Instalasi Kmplayer dan Mplayer. Karena Mplayer GUI error, lebih baik kita instalasi Mplayer No-GUI saja sebagai engine Kmplayer.



$ sudo apt-get install kmplayer mplayer-nogui



Terakhir, gunakan Mplayer no-GUI. Walau tidak praktis karena kita harus menjalankannya melalui terminal, Mplayer no-GUI dapat memutar VCD dengan sempurna dan tanpa “pesan error”. Perintah untuk menjalankan VCD adalah :

$ mplayer VCD://nomer_track

contoh :

$ mplayer VCD://2

Beberapa parameter untuk menjalankan Mplayer no-GUI bisa kita lihat dengan mengetikan :

$ mplayer

$ man mplayer



Untuk bahan perbandingan case-per-case yang mungkin berbeda pada tiap sistem, spesifikasi hardware komputer saya adalah sebagai berikut :

Prosesor Intel Pentium 4 R 2, 4 GHz

VGA Onboard SiS dan

Monitor Acer AC711 17 “ dengan resolusi 1280x1024 piksel.



Terakhir, saya hanya bisa mengucapkan, Happy Tux-ing ! Selamat bersenang-senang dengan desktop Linux!
