Find out why my Dolphin upload speed is low?

[oshunluvr]

I tried to add some sort of Samba services to Dolphin. The service never showed up in the Dolphin menu. When I look at installed services, Samba is not there. At any rate what should I be looking for in smb.conf and what about those nepomuk entries?

Run testparm on /etc/samba/smb.conf and see what it says. Samba won't run if the config is bad.

This is what I get:

michel@michel-Satellite-L650:~$ testparm /etc/samba/smb.conf
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384)

I believe the nepomuk entries are because it is currently disabled. I too get those same errors and I have nepomuk disabled. Although, my dolphin is acting just fine (i.e. no speed issues that I can see).

My output:

fletch@gemini:~$ dolphin

I don't use Samba and un-install everything related to it (that is allowed) post install, so I am not sure why I have that error. Also, not sure why I am getting the other errors either though.

I think Samba is involved because you can use Dolphin to browse the network including Samba shares ?

I asked KDE regarding the error message and got this answer:

Those messages can safely be ignored.

As for what the messages are:
Code: Select all
"/usr/bin/dolphin(10229)" Soprano: "Could not connect to server at /tmp/ksocket-michel/nepomuk-socket (No such file or directory)"
"/usr/bin/dolphin(10229)" Soprano: "Could not connect to server at /tmp/ksocket-michel/nepomuk-socket (No such file or directory)"

These come from Soprano, the library which underlies Nepomuk. Unfortunately it tends to be a little noisy. This essentially means Nepomuk is not running/is disabled on your computer.

Code: Select all
dolphin(10229) KSambaSharePrivate::testparmParamValue: We got some errors while running testparm "Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
Loaded services file OK.
WARNING: You have some share names that are longer than 12 characters.

"

This comes from Samba, it seems that the smb.conf file on your system has some shares which have names longer than 12 characters - it is essentially a warning. KDE interacts with Samba to allow you to share folders on your system easily.

All is well.
