I can go to recovery mode as root then start gdm but when i try to go back to tty i cant login. Every thing else is working fine....
When I open an open office document from an NFS share it always opens as readonly. This was a problem I had on Arch linux and the fix was to change the locking options in the soffice script but I've tried that fix here and it doesn't work. I've seen a lot of discussions but they all go back to changing the locking options in soffice, has anyone got any alternative fixes or one that definitely works with locking?

Open Office works fine when I run the command "startx" in the Konsole but so far I haven't been able to configure it.
I have an iMac G4 that I installed Jessie on successfully. However, when it boots, one of the last messages is:
[FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
Last line is something along the lines of:
fb: switching to nouveaufb from OFfb NVDA,NVMac
And then the text starts dissolving, and the entire screen cycles through different colors. I presume it is sitting at the graphical login prompt but it's not displaying correctly.
Based on some Google searches, it seems like I should be able to resolve this by editing /etc/modules but I can't get to that point. I have tried to get to a terminal using ctrl-alt-F1 through ctrl-alt-F12. No luck. I tried different yaboot options that were supposed to avoid using the video driver. No luck. How do I get the machine to boot straight to a regular text login instead of the X one?
This machine worked fine running Mac OS X this morning, so I don't think it's the hardware. What I can do.
I'd like to open a folder automatically after logging in. The folder is a samba shared folder but it shouldn't matter. I've tried launching nautilus as a "startup application", but then Ubuntu will enter some kind of loop and pop up lots of window saying "starting file manager". I am using Ubuntu 10.04.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI clean-installed Fedora 11 and everything was running well. I wanted to try Bacula backup program and so I installed the Development package in other to compile Bacula. When I finished the installation, I discovered a bunch of foreign language supports had been installed. I just erased them. While doing so, I must have also erased some other files.
When I rebooted, the bootup process went well until just before the login screen. The screen showed the Fedora logo, f, and got stock there. I was able to login remotely from another local network computer via vncviewer. I found that GNOME dsktop was missing. I logged on to Fedora 11 text mode by issuing CTL+ATL+F3 and did 'yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment" By remote login from another computer, I determined that the GNOME Desktop had been restored. But the Fedora 11 still stil stuck just before the login screen. What do you think is missing? What do I need to reinstall?
For a while now, every time that I log back into my desktop from hard start or from restarting the X server, I get these 3 terminal konsole windows that are open on my first desktop environment. It's seems as though whatever work I was doing when I had those 3 konsole windows open got saved somewhere and is reopening them every time I get back onto the desktop. I've tried to locate the problem by looking in .bash_profile and .bashrc but to no avail. If anyone has a solution to this, that would be awesome.

Is there some setting I can change so it doesn't do this?
I'm the only one using this pc, so I want to enable automatic login. When I open the "login screen settings" though, it's greyed out (inactive) and the "unlock" doesn't do anything.
I also have something about "keyring" asking my password each time just after login, which isn't pleasant.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use thunderbird to connect to gmail. followed the instructions on the gmail help section to set up thunderbird and opened ports 995 for pop and 465 smtp on my router. When that did not work I posted on the thunderbird forum. It was decided there I had a problem with debian since both the thunderbird and router settings were right. doing more research I used nmap and netstat to check for open ports and it seems to me I only have tcp 80 and udp 138 open. downloaded firestarter hoping to solve the problem but in the events section it does not show thunderbird trying to connect to any port. Is this a case of not understanding what I am looking for here. Is there some way to open all ports on debian and then using firestarter to block the traffic I do not want.

Just did a check on "shields up" and it says that ten of my ports are open. I get the same result with or without both shorewall and firestarter. I suspect it may have something to do with the mysql server packages added automatically during installation. Am I right. If so, what can be done about it? If not, has anyone any idea how to keep my ports closed?

I'm not sure, but I think that I may have removed some necessary files: when I first installed my Debian Squeeze system, I totally removed gnome-desktop-environment and then reinstalled gnome-core.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy dns/firewall Debian7 server (no GUI) was installed with a LDAP client.This client is now useless as no user needs to connect to that machine, so I changed PAM configuration to remove LDAP users from local users.The problem is that I can't login anymore as root or as administration user.The password is unchanged and when I try to login with it it gaves no error, but go back instantly to "login :"On the other hand, when I try a wrong password, it react as it should with an authentication failure.That's why I don't think it's a password issue.
The server still works as far as I can say no service was impacted, I just can't login anymore (and that will be an issue when it comes to some upgrade or administration...).
