Hardware :: External HDD Unrecognized - Smart Not Available
Jan 13, 2010
HP Pavillion hdd crashed in my daughters computer so I removed it and purchased a 2.5 USB 2.0 IDE Drive Enclosure and connected it to my laptop Asus Eeee running Ubuntu 9.10. I need to get access to the files on the external hdd and nothing seems to recognize except Palimpsest says:
Hard Disk 811 ATA/ATAPI Device
Unknown Size
Unrecognized
Smart Not Available
/dev/sdb
When I open a terminal and run:
rhg@rhg-laptop:~$ sudo parted /dev/sdb
rhg@rhg-laptop:~$ sudo gpart /dev/sdb
Floating point exception
rhg@rhg-laptop:~$
When I run Test Disk:
Test Disk 6.11, Data Recovery Utility, April 2009
Christophe GRENIER <grenier@cgsecurity.org>
[URL]
Select a media (use Arrow keys, then press Enter):
Disk /dev/sda - 160 GB / 149 GiB - ATA ST9160310AS
It only recognizes the hdd in my Asus. So if the Ubuntu Disk utility can see the drive how to I get these tools to see it? I know for a fact the OS on the external hdd is Ubuntu 9.04 ext3 because I set this system up for my daughter. The gpu chip melted onto her HP motherboard and crashed her system. Now to add more excitement to this puzzle, the external hdd does have the Captain Hook and the Aligator loud Tick Tock sound when you first plug it in so the hdd is not the healthiest either.

Since some days ago, my external usb BenQ DVD R/W become unrecognizable by CentOS. It was recognized before.
During those days, I updated software packages, and later reinstall the whole system. I cannot remember the time point that the problem began to happen. Yestoday, my kernel version was still 2.6.18-164.10.1.el5, when I enter single user mode through Quote:(exit gnome) $ init 1

After a couple of months of not using the dektop it warned me to check/correct some issue with the HDD, which I did. After the steps taken by the system to check the disk it went to the sign-in screen for ubuntu but it no longer recognize my password, so can't use it.
I remember that at the time when I was installing the OS it gave me a long list of alphanumeric characters which I would need in case of login problems in the future but I can't find where I wrote that string of chrs.. I deal with this issue by using the livecd from where I installed the OS or I do indeed need that string?
Important notes
1) Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
2) Plenty of free hard disk space
3) Properly partitioned disk
4) Recognized partitions at startup
5) Never before any issue/error of this sort

I reinstalled Debian today, and changed partition tables. Now I have 4 partitions, 3 of which are encrypted, including / (root). Everything was fine at first, but now, instead of the partition label I've chosen, I see this: 120 GB Unrecognized Everything works fine, I just don't understand what this is all about.
EDIT 1:I don't understand something else too, which might be related. First time, I didn't need to enter root password for things like Synaptic and so, is this somehow related? (Now I'm being asked for, like normal way)
EDIT 2: I know the label is ROOT, I used e2label. But it still doesn't show the right name...

For F10 patched. I'm in Honduras. The local cell / Internet provider that covers Guatamala, Honduras, El Salvador, uses an HSDPA modem marked "GBC" and is also known as the "China Bird". It's a black usb stick that looks identical to the option unit, but its definitely not an option modem.
lsusb lists it as 1c9e:1001 with no text after it. It automounts as a disk drive with typical Windows software on it. Nothing ever shows up in /dev/ttyUSB*, as I believe the disk mount causes it to not try mounting it as a modem. Dismounting it also does no good.

I have the keyboard: HP 6511-SU and it has a lot of buttons that would be useful to me; however, Ubuntu does not even recognize and does absolutely nothing with the majority of the buttons it has. The ones that it does pick up, it is mapped incorrectly (ex.: the media button, "stop" would be mapped to "eject". That's easily corrected by remapping it by going to System> Preferences> Keyboard Shortcuts. Is there a program or configuration file that will map the unrecognized buttons?

recently my ps3 unfortunately got the YLOD and i hadn't backed up all my saved files prior to that. Yesterday i tried to connect the ps3 hard drive to the computer to see if i could access and possibly copy the files, despite people saying it isn't possible. The thing is when i connect it the drive doesn't come up in 'Computer,' however it is shown in disk utility. From memory it also says 'unrecognized or unknown' underneath.

About 2 years ago I installed Ubuntu on my desktop as a dual boot with Windows XP. I am able to run either OS but, when booting, I get:Warning: Unrecognized partition table for drive 80. Please rebuild it using a Microsoft-compatible FDISK toolThe Ubuntu boot up is always successful. I am currently running Ubuntu 8.04 Is this a normal result of the Ubuntu installation partitioning? I don't want to mess with the partition table unless I know what I'm doing and maybe that warning is a red herring.

I've followed the instructions that I can find as well as I can, but it seems I've hit a relatively unusual condition. Here's the preliminary stuff:
lspci output:
Code:
0b:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4321 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 05)
Subsystem: Apple Computer Inc. Device 008c
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
Memory at 97300000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
[code]....
Currently, the interface seems to be set up correctly in the YaST network settings thing, labeled as wlan0, and it doesn't have the 'Not Connected' indicator after it.
EDIT: iwconfig doesn't list wlan0; it just lists eth0 and lo0, saying neither have a wireless extension

Are there shell versions that have a more intelligent tab completion? I'd like to be able to type cd foo-<TAB> Then it would show me the possible completions along with numbers that I can type to select one of them:
cd foo-<TAB>
(1) foo-bar1 (2) foo-bar2 (3) foo-bad
So, after <TAB> I would type 3 and it would take me to foo-bad. Alternatively, using the arrow keys instead of typing the number would be fine.

From time to time I have seen messages asking if their new device works on Ubuntu. This is to advise that I recently purchased a "Smart Webcam" brand inexpensive webcam at a local U.S. building products chain. Strange place to find such a thing but it was very low priced so I thought "why not give it a try". As it turned out, it works with my 10.04 install. Shows up ok on Ekiga and in gstreamer-properties in terminal. The video image quality is not as good as some but is suitable for casual use.
The microphone is brought out via a "Y" off the USB cable and ends in a 1/8" audio plug that will plug into a sound input port. I have not tried the mic but it should work. There is almost no documentation provided. Lastly, I have no connection with either the manufacture or the store. Just thought someone might be considering one of these and wondering it would work in Ubuntu. It does for me.

Kubuntu 10.04 x86. I've got a working triple monitor arrangement, separate X displays tied together via xinerama, which is all well and good (within the limits of xinerama, anyway; I long for the day when spanning desktop space, multiple monitors on multiple adapters, and X compositing can all live in harmony...) except for how KDE handles widgets. Love KDE, haven't had a second thought since switching from Gnome earlier this year, except for this one reach-for-the-shotgun issue.I like to have whatever I'm working on presently on my center monitor, my e-mail open on my right monitor, and various apps (torrent client, IM client, and a sort of 'status display' of arranged desktop widgets) on the left. KDE, on the other hand, does not like things this way.
KDE, it appears, has pretensions at being a GUI designer; it won't let me arrange widgets on my desktop the way I want to position them. If I put one in the top left corner, it'll snap into place. OK, fine; if I put another widget right below that first one, it automatically indents both of them, usually one in further than the other. Adding additional widgets to the arrangement usually but not always causes KDE to keep indenting - it's not stair-step bad, but it's obvious things don't line up which makes it visually distracting. It seemingly-randomly decides that I can't put a widget in a particular location on the screen and snaps it back to the size and location it was in when it first appeared on the screen (or before I moved it, if it was already there). It's not an overlap-detection problem; sometimes it's perfectly OK with me overlapping widgets, sometimes it won't even allow widgets to be within some apparently-randomly-chosen number of pixels of one or more of the widgets already on-screen. Sometimes it'll regard an aligned cluster of widgets as a single entity and snap to edges... with no rhyme or reason as to which clusters and which edges. When working with widgets in close proximity to each other, the 'edge-bars' that contain the buttons with which one can drag and manipulate the widgets; again, with little-to-no discernible pattern, sometimes they appear over the widget next to it, sometimes underneath the widget next to it (making the edge-bar completely useless), sometimes clicking the widget brings its edge-bar to the foreground, sometimes the widget needs to be dragged to a different part of the desktop or a different monitor then re-positioned in the cluster for the edge-bar to be in the foreground, sometimes the widget has to be removed and re-added to get the edge-bar into the foreground. When I rebooted just now, my widgets were randomly scattered across the desktop, despite having had "Lock Widgets" turned on throughout (since a few days ago, actually; the last time I had to re-re-re-rearrange things).Basically, from what I can tell from several months of observation, KDE has some sort of automatic widget arranging 'feature' which a) doesn't work properly and b) has no bloody off switch. All this makes what should be the simple, five-minute task of resizing and lining up some widgets by hand into an hour-long test of the elasticity of my vascular system. I'm fine with there being new or experimental or even buggy features in my GUI... so long as I can turn them off when I need to.
I've done the requisite googling and have come up empty. I've looked everywhere in the GUI I can think of, but no luck. I don't yet know enough about KDE to know where to look in the conf files to hack around it by hand. Could someone please tell me how to dike out or simply turn off this blitheringly-stupid widget auto-positioning drunken &*#^$*@#%$^&% wart so that I, the human, can put things where I want them on the screen?It's also baffling that I can only resize a Plasma widget up and away from its edge-bar when most every other window in most every other environment I've ever seen, including KDE, will let you resize by dragging any border in any direction. Big. Step. Backward. If anybody knows a way to fix this I would be most interested in hearing it, but I'll make do if given a way to turn off what I've come to think of as KDE's "layout critic mode".

I recently purchased a Conexant USB modem to use in my Compaq Presario M2000 laptop. (The laptop already has a built-in modem that's really a Winmodem. )I plugged it in, installed the driver, and it found the built-in modem....but not the USB modem. I'm looking for commands and packages I can try to further diagnose and rectify this problem. This would be a nice-to-have so I don't have to boot up Windows on the laptop just to be able to use the modem in places that don't have wired or wireless internet.

I turned on my debian systems. Update tells me that I have 26 updates, mostly to samba. I proceed and it gives me an error saying something about public key not available. Suggests to try smart update. I do that, smart update says I have 129 updates available (reasonable I guess b/c I have not updated in close to a year)
I proceed with smart update...now it says I can install 137 updates, I hit Check, tells me it is downloading packages, then, I get an error:
W: GPG error: http://code.highrise.ca lenny Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY B95C4D3ECC4D3D27
I don't understand why....What is the solution for this?

Our smart card readers stopped working with Firefox and Thunderbird after upgrading from Fedora 9 to 12. When I first opened it, Thunderbird warned that the "CAC Reader (DoD Configuration Extension)" is incompatible with the current version (3.0b4) and disabled the extention. Firefox (3.5.5) just doesn't work. The module listed in Mozilla Firefox/Thunderbird [Security Devices] was "/usr/lib64/pkcs11/libcoolkeypk11.so" which is still there. To get it working in Fedora 9 I was able to run an installer from [URL]. That was before my VeriSign software certificate expired.
Now I can't even connect to forge.mil because they require a PKI cert to connect. I'm wondering how they expect someone to get a driver for their CAC reader if they need a working CAC reader to get the driver - seems like a "Catch 22" situation. I also still have the rpm's that I downloaded before from software.forge.mil. I tried installing those but that didn't help.
mozilla-dod-configuration-1.0.2-0.noarch.rpm
firefox-mozilla-dod-configuration-1.0.2-0.noarch.rpm
thunderbird-mozilla-dod-configuration-1.0.2-0.noarch.rpm
Does anyone know if there is a later version of these RPM's or if there's another way to get our CAC readers working again with Firefox and Thunderbird?
Relevant Background Info:
Installed Packages:
ccid-1.3.9-2.fc12.x86_64
coolkey-1.1.0-11.fc12.x86_64
mozilla-dod-configuration-1.0.2-0.noarch
firefox-mozilla-dod-configuration-1.0.2-0.noarch
thunderbird-mozilla-dod-configuration-1.0.2-0.noarch
Could a renamed kernel module be part of the problem? What do you make of the following information?
Find library dependencies:
Code:
[root@inet3 ~]# ldd /usr/lib64/pcsc/drivers/ifd-ccid.bundle/Contents/Linux/libccid.so
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fff41bff000)
libusb-0.1.so.4 => /usr/lib64/libusb-0.1.so.4 (0x00007f52a37fd000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f52a35e1000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f52a3268000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x000000374b400000)
[root@inet3 ~]# locate linux-vdso.so
[root@inet3 ~]# locate vdso.so
/lib/modules/2.6.31.6-166.fc12.x86_64/vdso/vdso.so
[root@inet3 ~]#
##!!
There is no module named "linux-vdso.so". It looks like there was a name change that broke the libccid.so dependencies. I tried creating links within "/lib/modules/2.6.31.6-166.fc12.x86_64/" named linux-vdso.so pointing to vdso.so but it still isn't working. I've unloaded the module within Firefox (and Thunderbird) preferences within the [Security Devices] manager. Then tried adding it back using the [Load] button and specifying the coolkey library again but it's still not working.

I am looking for comprehensive documentation of the SMART values that are reported in Palimpsest.For example, I am getting the following result:
Attribute: Reallocated Sector Count
Assessment: Warning
Normalized: 100
Worst: 100
Threshold: 36
Value: 1 sector
I would like to find a very thorough description of the meaning of these values, how they relate to each other, and how to interpret them.
