Quote: You have asked Firefox to connect securely to ******, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure. Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified What Should I Do?
If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.

I am running fedora 10 on my laptop. I use a usb Western digital "MyBook" 500Gb (ext3). I am using this hard drive since more than 1 year now. Lately I run into a single problem when I read a precise file. The laptop becomes totally unresponsive and I have to manually shutdown the computer. After start-up I can find that the /var/log/message file of my previous session has grown very quickly with "[sdb] Sense Key : No Sense [current]" and "[sdb] Add. Sense: No additional sense information" messages.
I found various similar question on the web, most of the answer were hardware dependent and kernel related. I tried various kernel hoping that my specific problem would be fixed in the next one but with no success (all the kernel since fedora 10 release and two testing one: 2.6.29.5-84.fc10 and 2.6.29.6-93.fc10), I don't have access to a Fedora 11 machine.
I replaced the usb cable and check that the power supply was working correctly.
I am joining part of /var/log/message and the results of lsusb (related to the external hard drive).

i am working on a client server real-time gui application written in C++ for Redhat. There is an issue with this application that it makes the system hang. i am not able to sort out the issue as it happens randomly. Sometimes with in half an hour it makes the system hang, sometimes it takes 4 or 5 hours when it receives realtime data. Is there any way to debug this issue. I tried valgrind..but it was not of much use..

I made a BIG mistake and tried to print a PDF document from Evince 2.28.2. Evince sends a garbage filled print job to the queue that results in nothing but garbage being printed. I noted the problem an tried to kill the print job but could not because it does not show up in the print queue. It appears that the printer sent an error back to the print system and the print system now continues to print the job forever - that is, anytime openSUSE is running, even after reboots.
Note that printing the test page works and that the printer also works fine with gedit and OpenOffice.
If I go to Control Center -> Printing then right click on the icon for the printer and click View Print Queue, the print queue is empty.
In YaST Control Center -> Printer -> Policies the "Specify error policy" is set to "abort and delete the job and proceed with the next job." The "Apply this error policy to all local printer configurations" checkbox was checked when this policy was set. If this is what should have ultimately killed the job it did not work.
how to stop the print system from trying to print this garbaged print job. It has been trying to print the same garbaged print job for the last five days!

My Email Address is spamming
1. I received an email (spam) on Yahoo Mail from someone who was not intending to send it. (While it did go to spam folder, I did 'open' the email (since it came from a trusted sender) but it only contained a link (which because of WOT) I assumed was spam.) I did NOT click the link.
2. I then informed him that his email addy was spamming.
3 Shortly thereafter, i noticed in Ubuntu (firefox) whenever I clicked "reply" to email back to someone, there was a quick flash of letters/numbers in the slot where I would normally write. This instantly disappears and goes blank so I can write something, so I just figured it was a bug. This is happening on BOTH windows and Ubuntu.
4 Now MY EMAIL is spamming people the people I write to.
So far: I have 1. Changed my Yahoo password 2. Deleted firefox 3. In windows Ran Spybot/Search-Destory AVG (turns up nothing) What else can I do?

I have some important cgi files run on top of Apache inside cgi-bin directory.My requirement is to once user try to access the cgi file authenticate using Active Directory username/password. If user enter the correct domain credentials only user aloow access to the page in any time user trying to access otherwise not. I configured this using htaccess and htpasswd.But in this case I need to manually configure username/password for htpasswd file. Instead of this I want to authenticate with the Active Directory.

I have a strange problem on my system. When I turn off printer, system hang. Gdm/X exit and I can see a terminal screen with a lot of info (but I can not capture it, except taking a photo). I must press reset button. It's not all times, but at least 50% I shutdown printer. I was looking logs and I can not see any relevant. Maybe this (copy some sections of /var/log/messages, remove other not revelant):
Jul 7 19:43:34 dcr64 kernel: [341172.052076] usb 1-8: new high speed USB device number 7 using ehci_hcd
Jul 7 19:43:34 dcr64 kernel: [341172.185255] usb 1-8: New USB device found, idVendor=03f0, idProduct=4412
Jul 7 19:43:34 dcr64 kernel: [341172.185260] usb 1-8: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[Code]...
Sometimes I turn on printer to get a photocopy and turn off later, and system hand, so, it's not necesary to print or scan to get this error.

If I shutdown from X the system hangs and I have to yank out the power cord. Same on logout.
ctrl+alt+f1 hangs for a few minutes and then starts a terminal; which does not respond to the keyboard.
There are no tty.conf files in /etc/init .
But inittab looks normal to me and includes tty (1-6)
Executing init 6 from a terminal in X will reboot the system
I was thinking this might be a dbus issue, but I am not sure. I also understand some recent issues exist with SysRq sequences. May be a video card issue,,,
Other than normal package upgrades the only changes were a recent change from a VGA to HDMI cable. I can't see why that would matter

I am new to opensuse, coming over from debian based systems. However I am having an issue in which my system will not power off on shutdown. Restarts just fine. i get a missing error during shutdown, but there is nothing to relate the error to on that line. Then the shutdown procedes to The System will be halted immediately then hangs. The keyboard powers off and then thats it. All fans are still running. I have searched extensively on this forum and google.

I am running Ubuntu 10.10 on a Lenovo Thinkpad T61p with 2GB RAM. When I was on Ubuntu 10.04, one day suddenly Azureus hung at the 'loading plugin' screen as it begins. I had to hard reboot my system and it(Azureus) never worked after that so I removed it. Then after a couple of months same thing happened with Adobe Acrobat reader. As soon as I opened any pdf and started to scroll, it hung. System didn't respond and had to hard reboot. I moved to foxit reader Then I upgraded to 10.10 and now mplayer hangs occasionally if I try to switch it to full screen. System stops responding totallyn Where to begin debugging from ? I can't figure out any pattern or any way to reproduce it. I haven't tried Acrobat reader and Azureus on 10.10

I'm running V5.3 (newly installed) on an FJ E8020 laptop. The problem I have is when shutting down (*not* rebooting). NetworkManager fails to stop and after (during?) the postfix shutdown, the system seems to hang.I cannot access via another screen or remotely. I can't find any clues in the log files.

Truthfully, I don't know if this is a Firefox bug or not, but I've only experienced this on my Fedora machine.
There doesn't seem to be any particular pattern, and it's happened in trusted sites when clicking on various links (like this one for instance), but Firefox will suddenly go mad and just start opening window after window.
The only way I can get out of it is 'ps -ef' 'ing for the firefox process and killing it.
This has happened under both 10 and 12.

i reached step six where it states "6. When the root and swap partitions are formatted the base installation will begin. Note that your system may appear to hang at different points during the install but it hasn't. Just be patient." I have been staring at a blank blue screen with this blinking cursor at the bottom for 30 minutes and i was just wondering how much more "patient" will it take. for some system details. the system is clean / fist time run and anything installed on it.

Anyone know the reason why a sleep( ) on a Redhat Linux OS would cause the system to indefinitely hang? It's doing this every 10 or so calls in my program and I have to press the reboot button on my computer. My program is reading from a UDP port that has messages sent to it 20 times per second. When I sleep I assume the internal UDP buffer is getting more and more filled.

After a kernel update action, it seems that I'm unable to boot a system anymore. First off, after installing the kernel, and trying to shutdown to boot to the new kernel, the system replied with INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel. Kernel update was performed from to the following versions 2.6.18-128.el5.img -> 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5.img . The system is a VMWare virtual machine. When trying to reboot, the system passes GRUB, starts initializing and after loading the dm it stops for a few seconds at the message Waiting for new devices, show the following message:
Setting up new root fs no fstab.sys, mounting internal defaults. After this and a few other messages, it displays : INIT: version 2.85 booting INIT - No more processes left in this runlevel INIT: Id "x" respawning too fast : disabled for 5 minutes And then it just hangs. This is the output of my inittab:

The system boots into failsafe, but still shows the errors mentioned.

I have been looking for a lightweight bandwidth monitoring app and came across bmon. It does what I need. However it has an interesting way of exiting.
when it is running and you close it down it ask you 'Really quit (y/n)' and does not shut down. I am used to just right clicking on my desktop and selecting 'leave' when it comes to shutdown time.
A few times now the laptop hangs on shutdown if bmon is open. I guess it is due to the app asking if it should shutdown. Is there a way to disable the app asking or alternatively nuke it for sure with some script on shutdown.
I could search the relevant konsole running the app and go thru the steps to shut it down but sometimes I am in a hurry and it doesn't feel like the way to go anyhow?

I am running Centos 5.5 with all the GUI stuff, including nx server and webmin.Sometimes while watching the bootup messages because my eyesight is very poor.I hit <ctrl s> to pause the output so I can read some details. If I do this late in the init sequence - it often briefly stops the output then the screen disappears under a blue wash (presumably something to do with the GUI login screen ot screensaver??)but the login screen never appears. Also it seems that the script never completes because the imap, webmin and http servers don't appear to have started.
I haven't found any satisfactory way out of it. I can't get back to a console terminal (I've tried ctrl c, d, z, etc.). As luck would have it the nx server has started so I can open an nx session. If I open a terminal in an nx session as root.I can't do a normal restart (shutdown -r now). Nothing happens presumably it can't run the init script because it is still running.The only way I have found to get the system back to life is to run "shutdown -r -n now" in the nx terminal session.There are probably better ways out of this predicament that I am unaware of. Otherwise it is probably somewhere between an annoyance and a bug. I would be interested in any advice the centos "board" may have as to whether this is worth raising as a redhat bug.

I have installed fedora 13 , 86_64. and was working fine until now. The problem was that JEXEC service Froze while booting. So I removed it /etc/init.d. The next time when I booted ATD service Froze, so I removed it by the same way. Next it was the turn of CROND followed by KSM , KSMTUNED. Then came ABRT-DAEMON which I had to type a #yum erase abrt* command. Finally it came to the turn of SM-CLIENT. I don't know where it is or what it is. Didn't find quality posts on the internet. What the heck should I do and I dont want to do a reinstall.

My system is hanging on screen suspension... And its not the usual hang on "sleep" or others similars, it will happen by only having the screen on stand-by ( eg xset +dpms)...
If I leave for a while the screen will shutdown as expected but computer will completely hang after an indefinite time, it will not respond to outside connections and the will be spinning faster than usual...
Only workaround is to have the screen power save option disabled, in my case, on the KDE settings...
I have tried the most common solution to have "nomodeset" as a kernel option to disable mode setting, but this doesn't seem to work...
Also tried to forcebly reproduce the issue with Code: Select allxset force dpms standby/suspend/off but nothing happens like that...
This issue also only appears with the fglrx driver, open-source works well.

My system hangs within a few minutes after I turn on the Intel Pro/Wireless 2915ABG interface built into my motherboard or if I boot with the interface turned on. I have been having this problem for a couple of years and tried to fix it myself from time to time. (I think that I even asked for help in the Forum once.) The wireless interface used to work fine with Ubuntu and I kept hoping that the problem would "magically" disappear with each upgrade. I also read about the recent problems with ndiswrapper and similar interfaces. But this doesn't seem to be my problem. The entries in /var/log/messages just prior to the last hang were
Dec 15 09:09:47 periwinkle rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.2.0" x-pid="824" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] rsyslogd was HUPed, type 'lightweight'.
Dec 15 09:09:47 periwinkle rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.2.0"
[code]....
I don't know what process gdb was trying to trace. Since I was testing the system, I was only running Firefox, which has always triggered the problem. The output from "dmesg | grep -e ndis -e ipw" was
[ 19.121563] libipw: 802.11 data/management/control stack, git-1.1.13
[ 19.121566] libipw: Copyright (C) 2004-2005 Intel Corporation <jketreno@linux.intel.com>
[ 19.161180] ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.2.2kmprq
[code]....
In previous version of Ubuntu, the messages just before the hang used to complain about the firmware in the interface being buggy. I intended to send the output from iwconfig and "sudo iwlist eth1 scan" as well. But I can't turn on the interface without hanging the system and thereby destroying this post.
I just upgraded from the 64-bit version of Ubuntu 10.4 to 10.10 over the network using the Update Manager. But when I chose the "About Ubuntu" option from the System menu, I was surprised to see it say that I am running Natty Narwhal 11.4. My system is a Linux Certified LC2464T [URL]
