Fedora :: Big KDE Icon On Init Screen
Jul 14, 2010
This is a minor annoyance, but I'd like to know how to fix it... When starting Fedora 12 with KDE, the KDE icon is twice the size of the other icons. I figure it is easy to make it the same size as all the other icons, but I don't know how. If this seems confusing, I am referring to the screen that appears after you enter your password and before the KDE desktop appears. A set of icons appear one at a time. The KDE icon is clearly twice as large as the others.

Is anyone else seeing the default icon in GNOME Shell instead of the usual Firefox icon? I am talking about the default icon that looks like a purple diamond.

I've been dual booting 10.10 with Windows7 for about a month. Today is the first time I've encountered a serious problem.
This morning, nothing functioned properly after trying to open several programs. The computer seemed to be "frozen", although the mouse was working fine.
I decided to reboot, but then encountered an even bigger problem.
It failed to boot and got this message: no init found. try passing init= bootarg
The problem now is that it requires a Live CD session and I keep getting this: GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (0)
In case it matters, I didn't install 10.10 from an ISO, I just upgraded from 10.04.

Ubuntu 9.10 will not boot! System froze this morning, I restarted and it is now failing to boot. Starts loading grub and I get this message:
mount: mounting /dev/disk/by-uuid/04aa3697-7bc0-45b5-b86a-77a1e6534bd5 on /root failed: invalid argument
mount: mounting /sys on /root/sys failed: no such file or directory
mount: mounting /dev on /root/sys failed: no such file or directory
[code]....
I booted with 9.04 LiveCD discovered the drive could not be mounted-ran fsck -ln and it told me the drive has no valid partition table. I have had intermittent problems mounting flash drives before this, so I'm kind of worried it might be a hardware issue.Also have files on that drive I would rather not lose, so reinstalling is hopefully a last resort.

I installed Lucid Lynx on my laptop a couple of months ago and for the most part everything was working fine. However, just recently the computer doesn't seem to be booting up at all. I start up the machine and then a black screen appears with the text: init: ureadahead main process (306) terminated with status 5 the (#) is different in some boot-ups
And the computer just hangs there. typing anything doesn't seem to help at all. I press enter and a new line just appears. I've left it there for hours and still no login screen.

Can I add this to "/etc/init.d/rcS" file

While I was using my computer a few days ago, the terminal stopped working properly, so I tried to reboot, and when it started up again it wouldn't boot and said "no init found. try passing init=bootarg"
This has happened twice before, so I really need to figure out what keeps happening, otherwise I can't continue to use linux. i reinstalled both times before. i think that this is caused by a process that prevents me from using the hard drive, because when I try to check the disk in the terminal or in gparted, it says Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda1. Filesystem mounted or opened exclusively by another program?
Also, in the disk utility, in the lower right corner of the filesystem it has a spinning "loading wheel".(i'm not sure if that means anything)
I am using ubuntu 10.10, but am not sure what kernel I am using, but i tried a few different kernel options(there's three of them at start up). safe mode does not work either.

Im am building a Linux distro. It will be very tiny and fast.
I only have a minimal linuxkernel (bzImage) who is 1,2 mb big. And then I have Busybox who is 174,6 kb big.
The commands in busybox is: cd, ls, mkdir, rmdir, wget, httpd, clear, rm, poweroff, halt, reboot, fdisk, mount, umount, free, and cp.
When I compiled the kernel i use initramfs/initrd function and point it to a folder where initrd/initramfs source is.
The kernel works OK with others initramfs/initrd files. But not with my own.
Quote:
Here is how the end of the kernelcomplie look like.
Quote:
Here is my init file who is the initrd/initramfs source.
Quote:
The initramfs folder contains "bin" (folder) and "init" a file. No more.
The problem is that the kernel cannot find/read init file.

I did this on my new Ubuntu 9.10 system - the icon look like a PC screen with a padlock on it. Hover over says "Protect your computer from unauthorized use." and activates the screen saver/screen lock. I have no idea how I added it to the Gnome panel and I am wanting to do the same on a new PC. I have not had any luck searching - if I knew what to call what I am searching for I would probably remember how to do it

Lately I've been trying to install the Nvidia Cuda driver for Linux.In order to do this, I have to tun a .run file. When I run it in the console, It says that I can't install when running the X server. So I try to use "init 3".When I type it, and hit enter, the screen goes black, no blinky cursor thing, just a frozen black screen. I followed one of the nvidia tutorials on here to get the normal nvidia driver, and it worked successfully.Before I installed the nvidia driver, when I would use "init 3" I would get a colourful console window with random coloured blocks of random lettering. It seems that installing the nvidia form the tutorial turned this into a black screen.

I recently installed Debian 8 with the Xfce Desktop Environment, which uses the Lightdm gtk greeter as its login manager. My login screen at the moment looks something like this: [URL] ..... In particular, I still have the "grey person" as the default user avatar.
I have been unsuccessfully attempting to change my personal login avatar, following the advice on the Arch Linux wiki: [URL] .... I began by naming my desired avatar .face and saving it in my home directory. That didn't work, but I was not discouraged because the wiki mentioned that there were issues with the ".icon method". So I then installed accountservice, created a directory for my user, and saved my desired avatar as a 96x96 PNG named username.png in the appropriate directory (making sure that it had the necessary permissions, of course). That didn't work either...

I saw that there are 2 NTP services in /etc/init.d:
/etc/init.d/ntpd - the NTP daemon
/etc/init.d/ntpdate - what is this ? and what is the relation between the 2 services?
I mean... if there is ntpd to do all the clock sync, what is ntpdate's role?

I am trying to install a new NVIDIA Driver. as I usualy do I go to a terminal logging off and using "ctrl+Alt +F2" logging in as root and entering "init 3" but when I run "sh NVIDIA" it tells me "X server is still running." If I enter "init 5" it goes right to a gui. I have tried "killlall X11" with no results.

We have a virtual XP machine on our fedora 11 install. I want to drop fedora 11 down to init3 (since its a server anyway) and everyone is worried about the windows virtual machine dying. What would happen to my windows virtual machine if I drop the host server to init 3?

I upgraded to Fedora 15 using preupgrade after I failed to upgrade or install it clean through DVD. But, after the preupgrade process finished, I can't boot my system even into init mode 3. I am able to boot into the init mode 1 and can see that many of the packages have been upgraded to fc15. I tried to start the x server from init mode 1. My nVidia screen even popped up. But after that the screen went totally blanked.

I would like some quick pointers to understanding service-daemon controlling and etc/initd.conf or /etc/xinetd.conf, if you prefer. read, a while back, I should be using...
[bash]# service "srv-dmon" start/stop/status/restart/reload/etc
and to stop using...
[bash]# /etc/init.d/"srv-dmon" start/stop/status/restart/panic/save/etc
[code]....
