I got this error when I tried to load Skype with v4lcompat.so to solve my upside down problem.  ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.   Can anyone help?
Possible Duplicate:          I am trying to troubleshoot my webcam and make it work with skype.  One workaround that is often suggested is to LD_PRELOAD the v4l1compat.so file. But when trying that, I get an error message:  fdr@maggie:~$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.   and I am rather sure the path is correct:  fdr@maggie:~$ ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so   and the kernel and skype have matching architecture:  fdr@maggie:~$ uname -a Linux maggie 3.2.0-29-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 27 17:03:23 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux fdr@maggie:~$ dpkg -s skype | grep Architecture Architecture: amd64   So my question is:  What is causing the "... from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored" error message?

This question is related to "The Last Jedi":  The maneuvre that vice admiral Holdo (with the purple hair) uses towards the end of the film seems remarkably effective.   It seems that it would have worked pretty well much earlier. Especially as two other ships were just allowed to run out of fuel and be destroyed.  It seems doing it earlier with different assets would have incurred less losses. Yet nobody seemed to consider it. Any in universe reason why? I want to set an environment variable from the command prompt and then be able to access it globally (for instance, I should see it by going to System -> Environment Variables).

Stack Overflow has successfully borrowed at least one XBox feature (Achievements).  I'd like to see another feature borrowed as well. Let's say I'm playing Halo online and another player is being a bigot.  I have the option to add him to a list of ignored users.  After doing that, all the racist things he says will never be heard through my headphones anymore. Now, on Stack Overflow, I'd like the ability to add a user to a list of ignored users.  This would hide all of that user's comments, and maybe his questions and answers as well (not sure if hiding questions/answers is necessary). This serves multiple purposes:  It would make it easy for users to avoid other users' flamebait. It would give users a more appropriate response to flamebait. The ability to start flame wars would be reduced, since fewer users would see those comments. Users would now have an incentive to be more diplomatic, as there is now a negative consequence to the behavior (the silent treatment). Administrators could review which users are the most often ignored, which would be a strong indication that someone should be  or even locked out of their account. Administrators wouldn't have to spend as much time dealing with complaints about abusive users, since users would have a better way to respond.    makes a good point in a comment to an answer, that I thought should get more visibility:  I had a problem, reported it and got the response &quot;not bad enough to do anything about, sorry&quot;. Which is kind of true, because the only options available to the mods are the nuclear one (penalty box) and the zero-effect one (do nothing). We need a middle ground option where abuse can be handled for you without also being handled for everyone. Do I have to buy a second wildcard certificate for a subdomain? We already have a wildcard certificate for *.mycompany.com. Our network has hosts that are only reachable internally. All of them belong to the internal.mycompany.com subdomain. There is a private server with the host name server.internal.mycompany.com on which I deployed our wildcard certificate.  When I visit the web server I get a host name mismatch error. Do I really have to get another wildcard certificate for *.internal.mycompany.com or is there another (free!?) way to use our wildcard certificate for all of our subdomains and its subdomains without getting an error in the browser?

I recently left my credit card at a bar so I reported it as lost to my bank, and my bank said I will get a replacement within a few days. For what it's worth, I picked my card up from the bar a few days later and made sure to cut it up.  The new credit card has arrived and has new numbers. Will this negatively affect my credit score?

If you configure a GPIO pin as an output, why would current ever go into the pin (since it's configured as an OUTPUT)? I suppose it depends what the output circuit looks like, if it's tied to the voltage supply rail or ground... maybe I just answered my own question...? Running programs in the background from terminal Removing minimize/maximize buttons in Tkinter I noticed something strange recently when trying to use rounded corners in pgfplots: it totally ruins the plot.

Floats appearing in wrong places Derivative of function solved from NDSolve can't be plotted I'm new to the world of Apple, I bought a new Macbook Pro, mid-2020, Intel i7, 16GB RAM. I'm a developer, I run apps like VS Code, Sublime Text, Slack, Chrome (Multiple Windows), I play videos/songs in the background. I have been keeping a track of the energy consumption on my Mac, and it only runs for 4 hours. I have reset my SMC after I upgraded to Big Sur. Is 4 hours normal? or should I go to the service center? Update on 3 Feb 2021: I submitted my Mac to the Apple service center they said they conducted a few tests and the conclusion was that the battery is fine (I don't know what type of test they did). So I guess I'll be using it on AC Update on 12 Feb 2021: Took it to the service center, they didn't find any issues so I started using Safari for work and my battery has improved by 1 hour on Average. How to install brackets.io from the command line? For some reason the gnome installer that handles .deb packages on my system is not working. I'm not concerned.

After upgrading to Windows 10, I see my LastName and FirstName on the lock screen. Is there a way to change this? On Windows 8.1 there was just my nickname and email address (maybe there were my first name and last name, but not displayed so large as they are now).  I mean the name and surname parameters specified in my Microsoft account.  Another question: I prefer the format FirstName LastName, not vice versa.  Is there any way to change this as well?   Apart from Lock Screen I see it on the Start Menu.
