Jun 15, 2010My brother gave me a copy of Ubuntu 10, since my upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 screwed up. Installed it easy. But strange problems occur. After a few minutes of starting the system, it enters a command prompt, regarding "Checking batter state" yet my computer runs on an adapter, no battery exists (except the built-in one on the motherboard), and I have to restart my computer.

Oct 26, 2010Updated from 10.04 to 10.10 about 2 weeks ago and it worked just fine until today. After rebooting, it's stuck at "* Checking battery state" and nothing happens. I've tried with power cord inserted/out and without battery but with no success.
What I did before rebooting was that I tried to fix my iphone tethering problems with the following commands:

Ubuntu :: 10.10 Not Booting Past Checking Battery State?
Dec 26, 2010Every time I try to boot into Ubuntu, it never goes any further than Checking battery state. Once it gets there it pauses for about 2 minutes then goes to and doesn't go any further. I can still press CTRL+ALT+F(1-6) to get to a command line, but I'm kinda n00bish when it comes to the command line.

Jan 16, 2011Today when I went to boot up my computer, it hung at "Checking battery state...". I have never had any problems before this, and have been using 10.10 for several months. The only change I made that I can think of was installing the Wacom Control Panel. I have no idea what to do, and really, really don't want to reinstall Ubuntu unless there's no other option.

Ubuntu :: Upgraded To 11.04 - Freezes On Checking Battery State
May 1, 2011I upgraded to 11.04 yesterday but when I try to run it now it freezes on checking battery state. I've did some looking in the forums and found this post.

Now, when I try to start up the screen just goes blank as if I've turned the computer off.

Ubuntu Installation :: Edubuntu 10.10 LiveCD - Checking Battery State - Can Not Mount
Apr 14, 2011I am having a hard time installing Edubuntu 10.10 on a Toshiba L30
System specifications:
Toshiba L30-140
Intel Celeron M CPU 410 1,46 GHz
ATI Radeon XPress 200M Series
MATSHITA DVD-RAM UJ-841S
Bootable with CD/DVD only
While installing Edubuntu, I encounter two problems:
Can not mount...
I will reach to the screen to select to install Edubuntu and it will even show the green leds. I push F1 to get more detailed messages. After 2 minutes or so I will have this error message:
Code:
This error appears randomly. Out of ten attempts to boot, 6 times I will get this error message. 4 times I will get to...
Checking battery state ... [OK]
This will advance up to "Checking battery state... [OK]" which will freeze there with no DVD or HDD-Activity visible.
I encountered very many threads on the "checking battery state" issue, but they seemed obsolete to me, since most of them referred to Ibex. Also this is the Edubuntu LiveCD, it has not yet been installed on the HDD.
Nonetheless, for the Checking Battery State problem I have tried solutions for Ibex such as "acpi=force pci=noacpi" and "acpi=off". But it wouldn't work. Some people also suggested changing the graphic configurations, this is ATI however, not Nvidia and the BIOS does not offer the option to change it.
Strangely, the installation has worked brilliantly (with the same dvd) on another computer (some Laptop Toshiba L30), so I don't believe it might be a damaged disk.
Ubuntu Installation :: Checking Battery State Is Crashing GNOME Desktop Frequently
Jul 12, 2010Dell Optiplex GX260 (w/onboard Intel graphics) Original install was Ubuntu 9.04. Upgraded twice, first to 9.10, and 2 months or so ago to 10.04. Problem never occurred before version 10.04.
BUG HISTORY: Googling on this problem reveals that it has been around since at least Ubuntu 8.10.
I'll be working away and all of a sudden the entire desktop blows off the screen and is replaced with a console stuck in a loop. The last message I always see in the console is "Checking battery state", then the endless looping begins.
The only way out is CTRL+ALT+SYSRQ+K (kills Xserver, I think) followed by CTRL+ALT+SYSRQ+B (reboots system).
NOTE: If I attempt to restart Xserver, Ubuntu goes into an endless console loop with the same "Checking battery state" message. Does that help anyone figure out what's going on?
I have tried to remove any laptop program that manages power and they uninstall ubuntu-desktop. What gives with Ubuntu's GNOME being dependent on laptop utilities? I'm running a desktop and have no need of laptop utilities.
I have gone to the extreme of starting Ubuntu in Recovery Mode, dropping to a root shell with networking, then removing GNOME and Xserver completely and re-installing them both. The problem STILL occurs.
I have used the following commands to accomplish this:
This problem has made Ubuntu extremely unreliable, as it can crash at any time and DOES... MANY TIMES in a day!
Ubuntu Multimedia :: 2 Video Cards - Boot Hangs On Checking Battery State
Jan 5, 2011I have a Nvidia graphics card, and an onboard card. I wanted to use both concurrently. At first I was only getting signal from the Nvidia one, but I want both.

View 2 Replies View RelatedProgramming :: Get The Creation Time Of A Process Via Pid In C++
Mar 22, 2010Scenario: ( in C++ code)
I need a process A to be able to get the start time of process B. I have the PID of the process B.
I would have thought there would be a simple system call to make by passing in the pid of Process B, but I don't thing there is??!!
So my other thought is to create a script that will be passed the pid and either I can read the file creation of /proc/<PID>/stat or I could also parse the start time of ps on the <PID>. This script can be ran from the C++ code. My difficulty is capturing this information in the C++ code. If I run exec ( or system if not a script) I need the results in a program variable....not stdout.
My only solution is write it to a tmp file and read it back into the program variable. Seems rather arguious but a least it would work.
Background - I need to port Windows code ( GetProcessTimes(creationtime,...))

View 1 Replies View RelatedNetworking :: Ethernet Interface Leaves RUNNING State After Some Time
Jul 29, 2011I am using RHEL6 on a server with 3 interfaces.
eth0 is connecting via a Cisco switch to the outer world and eth1 and eth2 to internal networks.
eth1 and eth2 are working without problems all the time, however I have the following incident with eth0: although it is RUNNING, and after it works for some time (like some hours), it then becomes incapable of sending/receiving traffic. Here are more details, after the interface exits the RUNNING state:
[root@mgt ~]# ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr E4:1F:13:6C:87:74
inet addr:9.162.91.26 Bcast:9.162.91.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::e61f:13ff:fe6c:8774/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
[Code]....
I am wondering whether there this is because there is not traffic for some time and so the interface goes to idle. Is there any parameter I can tweak in RHEL6 to force the interface to remain RUNNING even in the absence of traffic (although I would be expecting that some 802.1 packets would be periodically flowing from the switch to the interface)?

Aug 4, 2010I get the pinkish Ubuntu screen and a message such as "checking disk 1 of 4". I assume that it is doing an fsck. However, the time it takes does not seem to relate to the time it takes if I do a manual fsck (almost instantaneous) or fsck -c (several minutes to half an hour depending on the drive). I also wonder what is counts as a "disk". I have in the system:
