View 14 RepliesUbuntu 10.10 64-bit. I tried 11.04 and did not care for it. I like to keep icons to start the browser, terminal, and gedit, on the panel. Up until recently, that has not been a problem. The browser and terminal icons work. But, the gedit icon goes away when I shut down my system, and bring it back up. The icon will stay in the panel for as long as I'm using my system, but once I shut it down, it's gone.

I am on Ubuntu 10.04. I had a network printer added, but suddenly now the printer seems to have disappeared. What's more, System->Administration->Printing doesn't allow me to add a new printer.The System->Admin.->Printing troubleshoot said the following:
"The CUPS print spooler does not appear to be running. To correct this, choose System->Administration->Services from the main menu and look for 'cups'". System->Admin.->Services does not exist. Searching on the net led me to believe that /etc/init.d/cups start would start cups for me, but that does not seem to be happening.
I have an external CD/DVD usb drive and as soon as I insert a disk (I've tried both CD and DVD), the drive icon disappears (unmounts?).I thought it was a bus power issue because it is a mini laptop (Asus Eee PC). This small/slim external drive has two USB cables, one for power and one for power/data. So, I plugged the power cable into my nearby Windows desktop computer and just the power/data into the Ubuntu PC.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI've bought a HP Photosmart printer, HP Photosmart wireless e-All-in-One printer - B110a and i've got a problem installing it properly. I'm using Debian 6.0 Squeeze. When i connect the printer, Debian doesn't recognize my printer as the Photosmart B109 printer for unknown reason. When i go to the site of HP and search for a driver, it directs me to this site:I've downloaded that latest hplip file as a .run file and installed it. My printer is recognized proparly, but when i try to print a colored image, it comes out black/white. Something is not crrect. Does anyone recognize this problem with this type HP printer?
View 7 Replies View RelatedThis is a rather annoying problem I have with Linux on my laptop. Whenever I install any Linux distro that relies on grub (which is about 99 % apparently) it will mess up my DVD-drive and the drive will not be recognized after booting, no matter the OS (Ubunntu, Arch, Windows Vista or 7). I know the problem has nothing to do the DVD-drive itself, because I bought a new one a few months ago. I am also sure that grub is messing the drive up, because I have tried to use LILO, which worked fine (except for horrible boot times.)
This problem have persisted through about 3-4 years and it is a pretty bad show stopper whenever I want to work with Linux. I had hoped it would get fixed over time, but no one seems to have the exact problem I have. The drive is connected with an IDE connection. Update: The old drive was a Toshiba Samsung SN-S082. I don't know the model number of the new one, but it is HP (I think). Things I have tried to fix it: Mess about with some BIOS settings like enabling AHCI and change some IDE settings. Installing a different boot loader DOES fix the problem but I would like to use grub.
I've been using Ubuntu 10.04 for almost a year now...and I'm still an ignorant noob! (....a testament to the simplicity of modern Linux- it's made me lazy) I downloaded a driver for my new scanner- see here: [URL] I extracted the tar.gz, and double clicked the "install.sh." and got it to run in terminal.....then selected my options (i.e. "stand alone" and "Ubuntu"....but instead of the terminal showing that the driver was installed or anything, the terminal just disappears!
View 14 Replies View RelatedI've built a computer based on a Gigabyte GA-H67M-UD2H-B3 motherboard that I intent to use as a home server. It runs headless with a minimal installation of Debian Wheezy on an 8GB Sandisk Cruizer Blade. Everything seems to be working well, most of the problems I had had been dealt with, most of the programs I wanted had been installed and configured, but there's one major problem I've no idea how to solve: on random intervals it seems that the system can no longer see the memory stick.
It could happen 30 minutes after a reboot or ten day later. It could happen while I'm connected using SSH to the server or away. It could happen when it's busy doing something or just idling. I could find no commonality. I've tried a different memory stick (also Cruizer Blade), a different USB port, a more stable OS (Debian Squeeze), none helped. The symptoms: everything already loaded in memory works. The webserver, for example, still accepts connections on port 80. However, nothing can be read from or written to the memory stick, so any webpage on the local server I try to access returns a 404 error. No new SSH connections can be made because sshd can't verify the credentials, existing connections remains active but I'm unable to anything useful with those, as no command can be found. No logs are written, naturally. Removing and reinserting the memory stick had no effect. The only thing I can to is to manually power cycle the computer.
I have ubuntu desktop version installed on my PC and it's the only OS on the machine. I has been working fine. Since I recently updated all the software packages everything on my desktop disappears. I can call up the right-click menu, and create files and folders via it. I can turn on and off the computer by pressing the power button. The OS is reacting to my action but the task bar and menu on top and bottom are gone.
Has anybody seen this? Is there anything I can do to roll the system to back to the previous normal state? P.S. I can use command line.
I have very small ARM computer with Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) running as a backup and media server for my house. I have attached a new "WD My Passport" 750GB USB drive to it. The drive is recognized and I can mount it and read/write files fine. After several minutes, the drive goes to sleep, even if I was in the middle of writing a backup to it. I can force it to start again with sdparm, but it needs to not shut itself down while it's being written to in the first place. I have tried this command to disable the standby state but it doesn't work:
root@Plug:~# sdparm --clear STANDBY -6 /dev/sdb
/dev/sdb: WD My Passport 0730 1008
change_mode_page: failed setting page: Power condition
I have also been told to change /sys/block/sdb/device/allow_restart from 0 to 1, but no such file exists and one cannot be written there. The hardware itself is fine, if I plug it into a Windows computer, it will not sleep while in use.
I call my script with ./script -e arg2. However, $@ only shows me arg2. Surprisingly, if I use ./script -s arg2, $@ shows me both arguments. What's going on?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've installed Office 2007 under wine, and would like to add launchers for Word, Excel, etc to the Unity launcher bar.
So, I've created a launcher on the Desktop that will run Word with wine. I've changed the icon to the Word Icon and everything works great from the desktop. If I drag that launcher to the Unity bar, it adds it, but changes the icon to the springboard default icon that new launchers use. Please see attached picture.
As a side note, I am really starting to like Unity (puts on flamesuit), but it seems very easy to break the install of 11.04. I've had to reinstall 4 times now.
