Fedora Hardware :: Unsupported Operation While Copying - External HD?
Jul 25, 2011
My USB ntfs external hard drive mounts fine when I plug it in and I can often copy files with no problems.However, I have some large folders on my machine (~10 GB with ~ 200,000 files) which begin to copy to the external drive but then stop with the error "Unsupportes operation while copying <filename>." The file currently being copied when this happens appears to be random. Does anyone know what the issue is and/or how to fix it?

I am thinking about using aida to nuke my drive and then I'll re-partition it with gparted. I don't want to lose my 15 GB installation of Fedora Core 10 in the process and have an external 80 GB drive. How could I back up Fedora to this drive with the intention of copying it back to my internal drive?

I have Western Digital 1 TB external HDD. I had slackware 13 and it could copy data to it with speed around 30 MB/s (copy from machine to HDD) and it was cool. It's usb 2.0 as KInfoCenter says. But now in fedora 13, it's like 1 MB/s or even less (KInfoCenter still says usb 2.0). Any special mount option to set in fuseblk to speed it up? I mean something like blksize or like that?
Code:
/dev/sdc1 on /media/My Book type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096)

I've got two external drives that are using ext4 that for whatever reason, I just can't seem to write too. I've changed the permissions on the drives using chmod so the permissions are "drwxrwxrwx". I can even right click within the drive and click "Create New Folder" but then it tells me, "Error while copying to "sdc1". The destination is read-only." I thought the destination permissions were setup so anyone can read/write to the disk? I haven't been using linux that long and have only recently started to feel comfortable to move over all of my stuff to Fedora.

I have two USB 2 external hard drives. I want to copy about 30 gigs of data from one to another. What command line command do I use ? I was thinking of using cp with the -R and -n options, but I have no idea what devices to refer to. I can't find any external hard drives in /etc/fstab and I'm not sure what /dev device each USB external hard drive uses. I just want to copy the files and the directories that they are in just as they are. There are no links and I do not want to do a backup.

My laptop has a dual boot Debian + Ubuntu installation.
In particular I am using Debian 8.0 with stock kernel 3.16.0-4 (or equally 4.1.10 custom compiled, I tested it and it does not make any difference for the subject of this post).
Ubuntu is 14.10, with stock kernel 3.19.0-15.
In both installations I have nvidia nouveau drivers and intel integrated graphics drivers installed and loaded. This is the default for both installations.
In both installations I have xorg automatically configured (no xorg.conf file present in /etc/X11). In both systems the content of /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d is the same for what moitors are concerned (differences in mice and trackpad entries).
Unfortunately, the video configuration in Ubuntu 14.10 works out of the box. In particular I can plug in an external monitor/projector and it will fire-up the nvidia card (nouveau drivers) to power that monitor.
Debian 8.0 on the other hand does not even detect the external monitor.
I don't know where to start to solve the problems.
The hardware is as follows: the laptop (lenovo W530) features both an Intel integrated graphics card and an Nvidia K1000M. The VGA port is connected only to the Nvidia card (this is according to my online research, as I don't know how to check this).

It's now working... if any of you have this problem:
I'm not sure but I think it's how it worked...
HTML Code:
Last night I updated system including kernel (2.6.32.9-70.fc12.x86-64), then my system couldn't start, I fixed it by booting into a previous version of kernel and:
Code:
Then I was able to boot in newest kernel, nothing blurry or so, but my Desktop Effects won't work ( want compiz to work :P )
When I try System->Preferences->Desktop Effects it says 3D isn't hardware supported.
WHen I tried "compiz --replace" it says:
Code:
I get this at boot.log:
Code:
I went to /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions and in line 520 I found some action() ( I suppose it is the same for everybody...
Now I look at my xorg.conf, and it has only this:
Code:
How could I have my effects working again ? I know a lot of people had problems with newest kernel and nvidia drivers but they all seem to be working after installing akmod ...

I recently did upgrade from F12 to F13 using preupgrade, and I was following the guide from the Fedora project website [URL]
On the section Removing unsupported packages it shows how to find orphaned packages and sugest you remove them. I tried that, found a bunch of packages that I promptly erased. But then I
came across
ModemManager-0.4-5.git20100720.fc12.x86_64
I thought "well I don't use a Modem" so I tried to yum erase it. I stopped when I saw that it was trying
to also remove the dependencies, a bunch of NetworkManager packages.
My question is, why is ModemManager flagged as an orphan if it has packages depending on it, isn't that wrong?
And also, the recommendation on the guide to remove these packages can be dangerous to people who don't pay attention (imagine someone accidentally removing NetworkManager, no internet).
I will keep the "orphaned" package out of necessity, but something is wrong in this whole deal.

I recently installed Fedora 15 on a new laptop (after, of course, deleting the pre-installed virus that came with the laptop). I installed the normal suite of tools using yum, including gcc. However, I cannot even build and run Hello World, so now I really feel like I don't know what's going on.
Code: #include <iostream>
int main (int argc, const char *argv []) {
std::cout << "Hello, world ";
} Build: Code: g++ -o main.o main.cc -g -Wall -pedantic
g++ -o hello main.o -g -Wall -pedantic -nostartfiles
/usr/bin/ld: warning: Cannot create .note.gnu.build-id section, --build-id ignored.
/usr/bin/ld: warning: Cannot create .eh_frame_hdr section, --eh-frame-hdr ignored.
/usr/bin/ld: error in main.o(.eh_frame); no .eh_frame_hdr table will be created.
That doesn't look too promising, but they are warnings, and an executable was created, so try running it:
Code: ./hello
./hello: error while loading shared libraries: ./hello: unsupported version 30277 of Verneed record. I have not had any success understanding what is wrong from googling, so I am now trying it here.
Let's see:
Code:

My older motherboard is a MSI K7D Master which had two AMD Athlon 1800 MP's installed. My new motherboard is a HDAMA Rev G which has two AMD Opteron Socket 940 CPUs 2.4Ghz installed. When both chips are installed, Fedora will freeze when putting the system under load (i.e when transferring data). This has now happened to both the motherboards, once I remove the second CPU the system will run perfectly.
I think it may be a kernal problem as this also happens on other linux distributions. I have posted here for several reasons, a) to allow any other person searching for a fix a solution (all be it not a good solution), b) to request help on fixing this issue or request to who and where I should report this bug, c) to see if any other users are having the same issues. I should add that I once had the MSI mobo used in conjuntion with Windows Home Server which never had a problem when both chips were installed.

I replaced the old WIFI card (Intel PRO 3945ABG) in my Dell D620 with the new Intel Ultimate-N 6300.
According to intel's website the driver is integrated in the current kernel (mine is 2.6.34.7 61.fc13.i686.PAE) and I have the latest firmware installed as well (iwl6000-firmware-9.221.4.1 1.fc13.noarch) however it does not work.
I tested the card with Windows XP and it works perfect.
The output from "dmesg" is:
Code:
Code:
But with my previous card "lspic -v" will show the driver in use but the new card does not:
Code:
So it detect the card for some reason does not assign it a driver!
And i googled this "Unsupported (too old) EEPROM" and found some results related to Ubuntu but were not useful.
So am I missing something? what does that message mean "Unsupported (too old) EEPROM"?

I managed to successfully upgrade FC11 to FC13. While doing the post upgrade steps, I made a HUGE mistake. After identifying the unsupported packages, I used "yum remove package1 package2" command to remove the obsoleted ones without realizing the yum was also removing many FC13 packages! Here are the cmd sequence used:
# package-cleanup --orphans
...
# yum remove compat-db45-4.5.20-5.fc10.i386 flash-plugin-10.0.32.18-release.i386 gnome-spell-1.0.8-5.fc9.i386 ifd-egate-0.05-21.i586
[code]....
I simply typed Yes and left unattended for a few minutes after yum prompted there were # of packages to be removed as I blindly believed it would do the job. After returning to the computer, I found many installed icons were disappearing, the wireless suddenly turned off etc. I killed the yum process right away but it was too late.
-Is there anything I could do to undo the yum remove process?
-How to safely remove supported packages?

user that started using Ubunto 6 month ago and I have now also installed fedora 13 to see wich operation system I like best... I have 3 primary partitions 1 for windows 1 for fedora and 1 for ubuntohen I installed ubunto I had a LILO (linux loader) like program that made me choose between Ubunto and Windows at start up... after installing fedora it goes automaticaly to fedora w/o making me choose... I can still mount my win/ubunto partitions so I haven't messed up compleatly... how do I "restablish" the linux loader deamon so that I can choose freely between the 3 operation systems?
second... when I installed linux stupid windows killed my backup hard drive where there are a lot of valuable resarch data... so now I have a 6 gb "unalocated" partition that I would love to be able to recover.... I would appriciate if somone had the answers to my guestions... so fare I like fedora because it seems better organised than ubuntu though the difference between the two linux distrubitons are hardly notacable

I had only Fedora 13 on my Dell Inspiron 1545. I found that there is a harddisk named volgroup in my computer & one another disk on which Linux is installed. The problem is that I can't access that space of my harddisk. It cannot be mounted.

Here's the deal: I had a nice little fileserver running under 2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10.x86_64.
3 disks in raid 5 ext4fs, then I thought..."hey I'm a greedy bastard..I want another drive!!
So I get it..do a normal mdadm --grow...after around 1100 minutes .. FINISHED!..whee..happy...
I decide to do a upgrade to 2.6.29.2-52.fc10.x86_64 to get the fix for growing the ext4..
reboot...

I have installed Wine on my Fedora 14 and got Security alert.SELinux has prevented wine from performing an unsafe memory operation.SELinux denied an operation requested by wine-preloader, a program used to run Windows applications under Linux. This program is known to use an unsafe operation on system memory but so are a number of malware/exploit programs which masquerade as wine. If you were attempting to run a Windows program your only choices are to allow this operation and reduce your system security against such malware or to refrain from running Windows applications under Linux. If you were not attempting to run a Windows application this indicates you are likely being attacked by some for of malware or program trying to exploit your system for nefarious purposes. My concern is if i hide this attempt, it will not stop wine to from trying to do it, only hide security alerts. This alert is occurred already nearly 5000 times in last 30 min and counting. Wine server is using 10% CPU on this, so only to hide alerts is not a solution, isn't it?

I booted my Fedora 13 live CD on my Dell server, and configured networking and SSHd. On my desktop I logged into the live cd and started copying over a big file (1.5 GB) (i.e. copying from the desktop computer to the server). After copying about half the fil, the download fails with an error message about the filesystem being read-only.I've seen this exact same behavior on both i386 and x86_64 of the same live CD, but don't know why it's happening. I've also had the same issue when copying small files. In /var/log/messages these messages are repeated many times:
Code:
Dec 20 12:32:23 localhost kernel: Buffer I/O error on device dm-0, logical block 684075
Dec 20 12:32:23 localhost kernel: lost page write due to I/O error on dm-0

host A: Fedora 7 has bind 9.4.2
host B: Fedora 11 has bind 9.6.1
I want to migrate my bind configuration from A to B I've read the release notes and man pages and I can't see why copying
/etc/named*
and
/var/named/*
I checked /etc/sysconfig/named too... Seems to have no effect on my brand new install on Fedora 11. Host B stays basically un-configured.

So I did:

and got this error message:
Code:

I have done a new install of Fedora 14 but the RTL8191 wirless card is not being recognised. Realtek have provided the driver source but the make operation is failing because (I think) Fedora 14 isn't provided with the kernel source to enable it to complete successfully.
Basically (in easy to understand steps): how do I download correctly the Kernel source to enable the driver make operation to proceed?

I currently have three hard drives: (2) 150GB IDE drives (windows) and (1) 500GB SATA drive (fedora13). I'm trying to move files on the IDE drives to the SATA drive so that I only need the SATA drive. The SATA drive is running Fedora 13 and the other two were old NTFS drives that I just use for space now. So most of the files copied fine, however, for a handful of them I receive the following error:Error splicing file: Value too large for defined data type This happens when I try to copy files not only from drive to drive, but even from folder to folder on the same drive. I've read about a 2GB file size limit, but none of the files are that size. I have no idea why this is happening.

I want to copy a file system with dd. Most of the forums and how-to's warn that the file system must be unmounted. Otherwise, data could be changing and inconsistent or, at best, there may be open inodes, and the copied file system would need to be recovered the first time it is mounted. However, is it sufficient if the file system is mounted read-only? Or does a file opened with read-only still result in an open inode?
