Hardware :: Reach Information Of A CDROM After Apparent EOF?
Aug 15, 2010
I have in my hand a CDROM with photos created by some greedy photographer. When I mount it I can see two files in there, two .exe executables about 7.7 MBs in size each. When I try to create an ISO of the cdrom, I get an IO error and only 16 MBs end up at the file.... so I would expect the photo files after the apparent EOF of the device (or whatever it's called in CDROM jargon).
Is there a way to get past this point so that I could run magicrescue on the rest of the CD so that i can get the rest of the files?
Or are there other handson hacky methods to get to that data?

I'm trying to write a program which would get information from a webpage and display the information on my desktop sort of like a widget. I kind of remember there being something like this already made, but for the life of me I can't remember what it's calledDoes anyone know?

I'm running Ubuntu 8.04. I've got sqlite3 installed, but I keep getting errors when trying trying to install pysqlite (2.4.1 or 2.5.1).
If I run $ python setup.py build things look like they're going ok for a while, but then I soon start getting errors:
There's a whole load more stuff, ending up with:
gcc -v tells me that gcc exists so I think that last error must be a red herring.
However, after searching the web and trying lots of things, I've not managed to build pysqlite.
In case it's relevant, setup.cfg contains the following (after attempts at various things having tried following up on some suggestions I found posted elsewhere):

Ive been searching half the internet for a solution for a strange problem im having with a server (CentOS 5.2 Final). For no apparent reason, the server will just be powered off.I've looked in the dmesg log and /var/log/messages file, but that doesnt show anything, except the "syslogd 1.4.1: restart." message after booting it up again, and hours in advance of the crash a "suhosin" alert message.

I have just installed (after a series of crashes during the install) Fedora 15. I also have Ubuntu Natty installed and use it primarily but I wanted to reach out and try new distros.I've wanted to try Fedora and finally got enough nerve to try. Installing it crashed for no apparent reason several times.ehow it installed and booted right to Fedora.However, when finally figuring out how to run the updates, I began to have the same problem.(Someone elsewhere suggested trying to update through command line--which I did finally though I had a few crashes doing this).
Now I am logging in and then it will just inadvertently crash. I could be in firefox, or using terminal, etc. There doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to why this is happening and I feel frustrated. I really want to test out Fedora (it looks so nice!) but can't manage to stay afloat more than a few minutes. I might also mention that this does not happen in Ubuntu at all so I can't account for the issues. I have much to learn but I feel a bit intimidated by Fedora because it's so new to me.

I was struggling frantically this morning for about 5 minutes after I booted up my computer, and wondering why it couldn't connect to the internet. After I figured out that the automatic wired network "Auto eth0" was gone from the network manager, it was easy to manually add it back. But why did it disappear in the first place?

how to re-set the page numbers of a pdf file within evince (without modifiying the pdf file). The point is that I am reading an article, and I would like the set "page 1" as "page 43". modifying page numbers of a pdf file is a bit tricky. So, I want to avoid that. What I wanna do is to make evince "think" page 1 is page 43.

I woke up this morning to a message saying I have low disk space in /home. My /home partition is 150 GB, but I had only 4 kB left. I promptly rebooted, which helped, but I still only have 40 GB available. Now, I use only 26 GB, so where the rest is, I don't know. In the disk usage analyzer, a lot of the space was not accounted for, as shown in the image.
Here is the output from df -h and du
simen@simen-laptop:~$ df -h

I checked out .gvfs and it's just a CD I have playing. I really don't know what's going on.

I've been an Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit user for one year. My Ubuntu distro is installed on an ext2 file system. Occasionally, I experience disk checks during boot without any system freeze or power loss.Sometimes, once reboot, the system works fine but Evolution Mail requests a new account, as if it was used for the very first time.Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Network stopped working about a month ago. I installed ubuntu again, and network worked fine, and I turned off updates to keep things stable. Now network stopped working again. No changes had been made to it.I put in the ubuntu install cd, and network works fine off of it. I did not reinstall again. ifconfig shows eth0 with correct ip address, but 0 RX/TX packets.
Cant ping anything from it, and cant ping to it from other computers.I'd really rather not reinstall yet again, any ideas on how I should go about diagnosing this problem?Ubuntu 2.6.35-28-generic-pae #49-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 1 14:58:06 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux

I just want to see if anyone else is having problems connecting to networks, wifi or wired. For some reason, I can see both wired and wireless networks available but when I try to connect, it times out. I updated a couple of days ago and suddenly started having problems today. Anyone else having the same problem?I have only tried the router and repeater I have to connect to. My other computers are working just fine. One is actually running as a Debian server with no GUI (which I do not update as often). The other is a Mac.

I'm having trouble installing it on a "new" computer that I found at Goodwill for $60 with no operating system on it. When I go to edit the partitions, it won't let me do anything due to an apparent lack of a root filesystem. (I know this issue has been brought up and resolved in the past, but the usual solution (going into the validation.py file) isn't working for me, as there is no line in this one that says "if not root".)

I have a firewall / proxy that has an extremely high load, but I can't figure out what's using it. No real cpu usage, the disks are sleeping except for a little log activity, it's on gigabit ethernet and not close to maxing out... Command link stuff runs fast, nothing seems slow, yet the load is sky-high. IME this kind of load is associated with a lot of disk I/O, but that's not the case here. What could be causing this, what else factors into the load?

How would you make NIS user information override local user information on client systems? This is what I think is right? Add nis on the passwd registration file on the second line Is this correct?

Xubuntu 9.04 installation CD not detecting any of the current partitions. This all started when I reinstalled windows XP a few days ago.After, the computer wouldn't boot into GRUB and would boot directly into windows.Other threads have dealt with a similar issue, that of overlapping partitions causing libparted/parted/gparted to detect the whole drive as unallocated space. The problem in these threads seemed to be a corrupted partition table, in which the partitions overlapped with each other. So of course I checked the output of fdisk -l for overlapping partitions, but I don't see any obvious overlapping partitions. I've noticed that the partition that used to be linux swap isn't showing up in the partition table at all. I might just be missing something simple here and would like another set of eyes to help me figure this one out. Does the problem have anything to do with the partition table being out of order (ie. not in order of what regions they cover on the drive)? From the liveCD I've run
Code:
sudo fdisk -lu
sudo sfdisk -d
sudo parted /dev/sda print
and have received the following output:
Code:
ubuntu@ubuntu:/mnt$ sudo fdisk -lu
omitting empty partition (5)
Disk /dev/sda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes

Intel motherboard DG33TL, chipset G33. I use the on-board graphics. The display is an Fujitsu-Siemens 22" with 1680x1050 res. The latest four versions including 10.04 of Ubuntu selects wrong resolution at boot up, 1024x768. There is no option for higher res. It should be 1680x1050 and I can't change it. Have not found a solution. It works on other quite modern motherboards, but just NOT DG33TL.

I'm running ubuntu 9.04 and I have set up 2 ip aliases using the /etc/network/interfaces file http://pastie.org/775037 -- when I ping the main address 10.0.2.16, all works fine, same with the first alias 10.0.2.22 -- but I can't reach the 2nd alias 10.0.2.23 I get the following from ping:
PING 10.0.2.23 (10.0.2.23): 56 data bytes
Request timeout for icmp_seq 0
Request timeout for icmp_seq 1
Request timeout for icmp_seq 2

4 5 00 5400 06eb 0 0000 3f 01 5e81 10.5.0.34 10.0.2.23
My machine's IP address is 10.5.0.34 I can't figure out why I can ping 10.0.2.22 but not 10.0.2.23 -- seems like there is probably some kind of routing thing that I'm missing, but I'm confused how it would have gotten set up for 10.0.2.22 but not 10.0.2.23 -- hopefully someone out there has an idea -- or can point me to references where I might be able to learn how to debug routing issues on a network?

There have been no updates recently (for almost two months) on any of my CentOS 5.5 boxes when I run 'yum check-update'. I may be misunderstanding the repo setup, but looking at the file mod dates, it seems that there hasn't been an update since 2011-01-06:[URL]...Meanwhile, a prominent North American Enterprise Linux vendor has had multiple security and bug fixes since then:[URl]...Is CentOS 5.5 still getting updated, or am I missing something (quite possible).

i use firefox for a long time, but today in opensuse he just stoped working without any reasonable reason! The only page he opens from now on is my default page... when i try to go to other ones appears this error message: "by the way the server is redirecting you, you will never reach your destination" or something like that. After this, says that this may be caused by blocked cookies... the problem is with my firefox, cause konqueror is working ok!

I'm using Ubuntu on my laptop but I'm having a small problem. The network is working fine except for the fact that I can't reach anything on my LAN (can't even ping the router), but everything on the outside works just fine. I can even visit my webserver if I type my public IP.
Where should I begin looking for faults?
Here, enjoy some data. I'm using my wlan0 interface, not sure whether eth0 works or not.

I have just installed ubuntu Server with Apache2, PHP5, MySQL and PhpMyAdmin.
Everything works fine when I access the server on the LAN. I have forwarded port 80 in my router to the LAN ip of this server. (I have other windows based web servers so I am familiar with port forwarding) however when I try to access the server from the true static IP outside the LAN I cannot reach it and the connection just times out with the Ubuntu server connected if I use canyouseeme it says port 80 is closed. If I replace the Ubuntu server with another server I can reach this just fine from outside and canyouseeme says the port is open. So I am pretty darn sure the router is correct and that there is some config problem with the Ubuntu box, but I cannot find it. the ports.conf file has listen 80 in it and the apache2.conf includes the ports.conf file.

I run 11.04 from a USB-stick according to instructions on ubuntu.com (pendrivelinux) with persistence. I use an Acer Aspire One D255E (10" screen notebook).I cannot reach the Windows partition. (Win7 starter. It is not hibernated.) It was OK at first but the error then occurred suddenly. It has happened before and the only thing that helps is reinstallation. The problem causes me much trouble. I must find a way to reach the files. (There is no problem reaching the 4.3 G android partition. I always unmount Win before shutting down, but that does not seem to be the issue. When I tried to investigate the problem earlier I intentionally left Win mounted at shutdown, but it could not provoke the issue.)

I use Fed 14. I have China Telecom internet. The wired dsl connection works fine, but the wireless won't work. It has WPA security. The password taken from beneath the router is n2nqrcqx. This password is accepted. Network Manager says I am connected to ChinaNet-TRtk, but in fact, I can't reach the internet via wireless. If I disconnect the cable, I can't get through. I have the settings on automatic dhcp. I have nothing in BSSID, I don't know what that is. I unchecked the box 'require ipv4 addressing for this connection to complete' Ditto that for ipv6.
