I've been trying to add applications to my "Startup Applications" menu. Most of the time, they "stick," but sometimes simply disappear, either immediately or after a variable length of time (sometimes more or less immediately, sometimes after several restarts, or anywhere in between). I've noticed that, when they stop booting, their entry disappears from ~/.config/autostart, but changing permissions on the affected files (e.g., removing write access) doesn't seem to help.
Any suggestions? Re-adding the same things over and over gets frustrating after a while, and I can't figure out why these entries are disappearing.Currently running Ubuntu 9.10 on an HP Pavilion dv6000 with an Intel Centrino Core Duo processor and 2 GB of RAM.
I don't want to install alacarte to do this. I've copied the .desktop files from /usr/share/applications to ~/.local/share/applications that I don't want appearing in the gnome 3 applications list (e.g., email settings for evolution), and added 'NoDisplay=true' to the end of each desktop file. Restarted gnome shell, even tried logging out and back in, but they still appear there. Previously, in gnome2, desktop files under the home dir superceded the global directory. Do I need to edit them directly as root to effect the changes, or could this be a selinux problem?
i installed "display calibrator" from the distros and afterwards i cant find it under Applications (graphics/ sound&audio/system tools...), so i went to System > Preferences > Main Menu and it isnt listed anywhere.
I've AMD64 system with Ubuntu 11.04 installed. It's been rough ride for me to install oracle-xe-universal. I've already spent more than 2 days on this. Still unsuccessful.
1) First I downloaded the packages libaio_0.3.104-1_i386.deb and oracle-xe-universal_10.2.0.1-1.1_i386.deb
(gave me dependency error for libc6 (>= 2.3.2), I modified the control file to remove dependency and rebuilt the package) (now worked fine) Oracle xe is now installed. Then I tried to start the DB it started but it's HTTP client never started. So I decided to uninstall the oracle-xe=universal. None of the sudo apt-get remove oracle-xe-universal command's didn't worked for me. So i went for manual uninstallation directions as per oracle link.
rocky@ubuntu:~/git/mygit/edas2/libaio$ sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture oracle-xe-universal_10.2.0.1-1.1_i386.deb dpkg: warning: overriding problem because --force enabled: package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)
[code]....
Even in applications menu I don't see the if oracle has been installed. So i conclude first time installation was ok but somehow http client didn't worked. After manual uninstallation, second installation didn't even loaded/installed the oracle-xe in init.d directory.
So here is my situation..i was using win 7 and ubuntu 10.10 in my dell studio 1555. and i wanted to try out debian so i installed debian in my pendrive. so the grub was modified. when the computer starts it shows debian,ubuntu and win7 no problem.. but if i remove the pendrive, nothing comes up. it shows grub rescue>..
so now i cant start up unless i plug in the pendrive. what to do now to solve this problem?? i want to restore my grub to the previos state.
I am a using Windows xp. I had Started my Redhat6 tuition from some days,, My question is " How can I install redhat linux 6 from my pendrive? Please describe me all the steps cause I haven't try to install a O.S. from pendrive?
I feel shy asking this question but, 90% of the applications I install in Ubuntu (last release), do not show up later on in the applications menu, so I cant run them. I know it seems silly, but I can't find the way to handle this inconvenience. Is there a place (like Start> All programs in Windows), were I could find and run all the programs I install?
I was trying to install openSUSE 11.2 64 bits from the second partition of my 8GB USB pendrive.
Why? I want a dual data / emergency install pendrive without mixing my data with the install system.
As most people use MS Windows, and it's only able to mount the first partition of USB removable drives (without installing an alternative USB disk driver), I need the first partition to be the data partition for normal pendrive use.
Ok, I must say I've accomplished this with Ubuntu before without major problems.
Well, as of now, I've copied the ISO image contents to that second partition, installed Grub4DOS in the MBR with its corresponding custom menu.lst file, and made bootable the second partition.
When booting my system from the pendrive, the kernel was loaded without problems, but the boot process stopped with a message indicating that there was no device with MBRID = 0x8c71ad6e.
Ok, I ran fdisk from Linux and diskpart from Windows, and find the MBRID for my PenDrive is 0xed196ecb.
I've modified the /boot/grub/mbrid file with the actual pendrive MBRID, but the system refuses to boot with the same error (and with the correct MBRID).
Is it possible that the install system is only able (is hardcoded) to boot only from the first partition?
I want to install a OpenSuSE 11.2 in a no optical drive station. Obviously I have done a pendrive installation (following the steps in Live USB stick - openSUSE). Using Live images it works very well. But with the net install image, when I boot the station, nothing happen and it passes directly to the second boot device
I have a 8 GB flash drive and a 4.3 GB DVD iso (openSUSE-11.3) Is it possible to use the flash drive to install the linux? Pendrive linux universal USB installer formats it to Fat32 which limits the filesystem to 4 GB.
I know this can be done with install-grub command in recent ubuntu release. How can i install it from puppy linux or distro which does not use grub 2. Will my pendrive boot if i copy /boot/grub from ubuntu 10.04 live cd to /boot/grub of my pendrive?
I've recently been trying to install Kubuntu Live onto a pendrive but I'm having some problems. Situation is as so:- Installed Kubuntu 10.10 desktop to 4Gb pendrive via Universal installer 1.8.1.2, with 2Gb allocated persistence.
- Reboot PC, boot from USB into Kubuntu, no problems. - Configure WiFi connection. - Reboot. - Error: NTLDR is missing
I've tried this several times, always with the same result. As soon as I reboot, boot loader appears to be missing. I've read here:[URL].. that there are problems with syslinux and Ubuntu's version and wondered if this was the problem, but plenty of people appear to be running with this setup.
Does anyone have any ideas what may be the problem (and apologies if this has already been asked, I'm struggling to find anything pertinent.) For info, the pendrive I'm using has a small partition that acts as a floppy drive, could this have any influence?
I'm setting up a large number of virtual machines, each with a basic set of about 30 applications. Obviously, I don't want to do everything manually so I'm looking for ways to automate this process. Multiple distributions (Ubuntu, Red Hat Ent., FreeBSD, CentOS, etc.) will be used, meaning I will have a few Ubuntu installs with the basic set of 30 applications, and multiple Red Hat installs with the same set, etc. So, I'm looking for advice on automating as much of this as I can, even if it means a new form of automation for each distro.
I have created the installation-usb by the command #dd if=opensuse-11.3-Gnome-LiveCD1.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M;sync from my laptop with debian-lenny OS and was trying to install opensuse on my netbook (NO optical drive) with Intel Atom. The BIOS of the netbook showed the booting priority
USB Memory USB CD/DVD ROM Driver Hard Disk Drive Others.
After switching on the Netbook with the pendrive in the USB port the computer simply stopped proceeding further with the pendrive blinking on and on. So what shall I do?
Note: I am doing such setup for the first time so I don't know if there is a problem with given opensuse version or problem with what I am doing. System: openSUSE 11.4 RC1
Desired setup: entire system except /boot partition on hard disk, /boot partition on USB (pendrive). Aim -- making impossible to boot from hard disk, forcing boot from the USB (please, don't question my aim, I am just trivializing the issue here to shorten the description).
Setup: I set /home and / partitions on hard disk (/sda), /boot partition on USB (/sdb), I selected the options to Boot From Boot Partition as well as Boot From Master Boot Record. Finally I selected Boot Loader Options and selected Set active flag in Partition Table for Boot Partition. I installed the system.
What works:
a) without pendrive inserted I cannot start the system b) with pendrive inserted GRUB menu shows up and system is ready to boot
The problem: after initial starting, there is long pause, and system switches to text mode with error:
Code: drive "/dev/disk/by-id/id_of_my_pendrive" is not found Since the console worked, I logged in, and yes, actually there was not such disk found. But the disk (pendrive) was there -- the initial booting took place not from void, but from it. So why it is not present? Out of curiosity, I pulled it out, and plugged it in back, now it was visible in "dev/disk/. Question: what should I change/tweak for correct booting the system from pendrive? Or is a bug in 11.4 installer? I would like to setup everything as it should be done -- I mean within installer.
What I found so far: Booting encrypted system from USB stick - Gentoo Linux Wiki it is similar problem to mine, but only similar. I have other symptoms.
I have installed Ubuntu 10.10. Works good, but I would like to switch LTS-release-cycle. I can't burn CD, so I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 without cd or pendrive. I tried to install Ubuntu 10.04, using Ubuntu alternate cd and grub loader: [url] but it doesn't work (bugs in kernel modules) Is it possible to downgrade Ubuntu 10.10 to 10.04 without burning cd? Can i create new partition and house the installation disk?
I have made an pendrive with slackware and used the huge.s as indicated during the boot on /dev/sda1 for the pendrive, shall work; but it hangs displaying lot of lines ending with :
I just performed a clean install of Ubuntu 10.04 on my flash drive, allocating a 6.5 GB persistence file. Of course, the first thing I did after booting from it was to run sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade. After a lengthy install process, I was eventually notified that several packages failed to upgrade. I rebooted and tried again, still to no avail. Now, whenever I install a new package or attempt to upgrade with apt-get, I receive the following or a simmilar output:
I've put openSUSE several times in USB flash drives. I've used the old method with dd ... and the new one with dd_rescue ..., shown in SDB:Live USB stick - openSUSE This way a partition is created (sdb1 or sdc1 or ...), with the Linux file system (ID: 83). One of the problems of this system is that all the data of the pendrive is deleted. Another problem is that sometimes openSUSE doesn't load completely and I cannot use it. And another of the problems is that even if I create another partition (for example to make the Live USB persistent and "remember" the configuration of my computer) and I put some of my photos, songs, films there when I plug the pendrive in a computer running Windows XP I cannot access the data. (What about Vista and 7?)
Other Linux distros can be put in pendrives using the FAT file system (for example W95 FAT32 (LBA), ID: c). This way my personal data or files (photos, documents, ...) can be opened from a computer running Windows XP (and the personal data is not erased when putting the Linux in the pendrive). So I would like to know how to create a Live USB drive with personal files that are avaiable for many Operating Systems, including Windows XP. Perhaps the solution is to put openSUSE in a FAT file system, or put it in Linux file system but create another partition with FAT file system (for this openSUSE should avoid the 1st partition, sdX1, that should be for the personal data, so Windows XP can access it).
I'm trying to install Oracle DB on my Open Suse (uname says: Linux-llwu 2.6.34.7-0.3-desktop preempt 2010-09-20 .. 86_65 x86_64 x86_64 gnu/linux) but it fails when it need to check package requirements.. for example, installation says that libaio-0.3.105 is missing, but I installed it (0.3.105-2), and could upgrade it to 0.3.107-4.1 how should I fix this problem?
