It wasn't working at all at one point and I am assuming that some update or another got it going. Perhaps a repo switch. Unfortunately I am not sure of what those changes may be. I just know that it does run now but only in fallback.

I played with the graphics in kde4 and seem to have losy my installation. i have tried the rescue system option, recover system options and in desperation (i was just about to reinstall) tried booting in failsafe mode, and it worked!
where do i go to find out what the problem is regarding the normal boot mode? i think my pc is starting to resent the continual use of the reset button!
i am bit confused about the two process that is zombie and orphan procees,both is different so what is the exact difference between the two process that makes it different and if there is no parent process then init adopts the children in both the case.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI did a cleanup on old user ids on my server several months ago. One of the user ids was 1005.. When i check the quota page on webmin, it says that userid 1005 is using 8.40 GB on the system, but I can't find those files anywhere! The home folder was deleted with the user ids, so I'm not sure what the username was to begin with.If I check the passwd file - there is no 1005 listed. So i did a find / uid 1005 and I tried a find / -nouser command.. Neither list files owned by 1005. How can I find where those 8.4 GB of files are?edit: when I do a du -sch * to find space being used.. there is only 5 folders within the /home that could have 8G in there .. (assumeing du -sch shows all files, including hidden).. du -sch * from / shows only possible location is in the /home folder

It's called TextRipper and it creates indexable and editable text files from any image. Feel free to copy TextRipper; it's licenced under GPL. My troubles are with cracking passworded pdf's. (As you can see, I meant any when I said any image.)
I can't find a way for the user to cancel the decryption process by exiting the script without pdfcrack orphaning. Line 349 works the rest of the time; the concerned process is line 228. I believe it's a piping/subshell problem. At least that's how I've been going at it in vain.
I've made portability a priority and that the comments still require updating.
Code:
If the result is one output file, TextRipper will open it for you in OpenOffice Writer.
Otherwise all txt output files (editable and indexable) will be in the original file's directory." 0 0

View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently uninstalled some unnecessary libs thinking that I could work around without them. It turned out I couldn't. So I installed every single one, and it seemed like everything was working fine. But then I tried to boot, and was thrown into a low-graphics. Well I tried to boot in a low-graphics environment temporarily but it turned out X just restarted. Then I tried to reconfigure the settings, but choosing any option it threw me back into the last menu without any action being taken.
So I googled up some lines it was vomiting at me and it indeed might be my xorg not configured properly. but every time I try to reconfigure it and I look into the .conf file it turns out it is completely blank. maybe I should also note I am sporting a 64 bit bubuntu, not an NVidia though, Intel Series 4 express chipset family thing. I think it is a GMA4500MHD but not sure, what shall I do so that I don't have to reinstall my beautiful pimped out system?
as Ubuntu is my only OS on this box.I had this PC running as a server for a few months with few reboots.I installed updates as usual yesterday, and hadn't changed anything configuration-wise since the last reboot. Well last night this server that I was running was moved to another Windows box and so I finally got to shut this PC down for the night. In the morning, I was greeted with an endless splash screen. It went on for 20 minutes without anything. I did update the kernel through update manager.
So what do I do? This machine has a 1TB HDD with a lot of very important data on it--reformatting is not a considerable option at this point. Which is bad because I don't know what else I could so when even recovery mode isn't working...
I've a problem booting on my fc14 64 bit. I install it yesterday and everything was ok. Then I updated it and I installed wireless drivers kmod-wl equivalent to my kernel version that is 2.6.35.6-45. I've a pavilion dv6 with a broadcom ach. for networking. So the next step was installing kmod-nvidia for my nvidia geforce but after rebooting my never allow me to log in! I can se the tipical blue-white progress bar loading nvidia drivers but not else!
my screen freeze itself after the progress bar became white. I would resolve by rescue mode but I've installed fc14 64 b using a usb-pen drive and I find no way to do this from live version.
I have ubuntu 10.04 installed. I have a problem when my usb IR receiver is connected, than suspend mode isn't working. System will jump into black screen and that's all. Only hard reset works. I tested this problem also on ubuntu 9.04 and situation is the same.Is there any way how to force suspend mode without "looking" on this device? Do you need any log file to trace reason of this problem ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhatever settings I use in the power manager, (Ubuntu default Gnome Power Manager) nothing appears to change. Screen brightness does not change when moving the slider, but is reduced after 5 or 10 minutes (haven't timed it. Probably whatever is default) of inactivity, even though the reduce screen brightness checkbox is unchecked. The latter is pretty annoying when watching online TV streams, especially since the video also exits full screen mode when the screen brightness is reduced.
The weird thing is, as the title implies, that when booting in recovery mode with FailsafeX the power settings seems to work. At least the screen brightness varies as the slider is moved I should probably mention that it is possible even in normal mode to adjust the screen brightness by using the buttons for adjusting screen brightness on my laptop (Fn + arrow up/down)
I have installed ubuntu 11.04 just yesterday and have installed the necessary nvidia graphic drivers too. But when I maximize any application(be it chrome, firefox, vlc, media player), the whole screen becomes white and when I escape from it to make it of small window, it again runs normally. Sometimes it work fine, but most of the times it is like what I told above. Please tell me some solution or I will have to go back to windows.

View 4 Replies View RelatedBAM your ftp doesn't work. Out of the blue my ftp connections stall when I ask for a directory listing. I am using ncftp as I have for several years. And after a long pause I get the answer:Data connection timed out.Falling back to PORT instead of PASV mode.I then get the listing and the connection continues in PORT mode. But not with FileZilla it just hangs. Also bit torrent no longer works. Set up is a home network of 6 machines reaching the internet through a linux firewall box, qwest DSL modem gt-701-gw. Nothing has changed but sometime in the last week something has changed because now FTP PASV and BIT TORRENT can no longer connect.
I am holding back from completely rewritting the iptables/shorewall rules and have spent the day with the website host 1 and 1 and Qwest. Trying to find a solution. This problem is universal, all machines (windoze and linux) and all software (coffeecup, ncftp, ftp, filezilla, bit torrent).
I'm using gnome shell 3.4.2.1 from the stable debian repository. 2 problems with the gnome-tweak-tool:

2) in the non-classic mode only, setting made in the tool have no effect: e.g. Shell->Show date in clock does not toggle the date in the clock.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI tried to make Compiz work using the experimental 3D support of the free Nvidia driver, because I am suffering from a bug in the proprietary driver (click here for launchpad entry). The free driver I mean is the one that shows up as "Experimental 3D support for NVIDIA cards" in the "Additional Drivers" manager (note: for some reason, this option will only present itself when no proprietary driver is currently active).
Now the strange thing is: the driver does not provide 3d support, and behaves generally awful (lots of glitches and so on) when I boot my system normally. But when instead I boot from the grub menu into recovery mode, then select "failsafe graphics", and then select "restart X", the whole thing works perfectly! So now I am running the experimental 3d driver, I have compositing working, 3d animations on docky. Somehow, the failsafe boot sequence does something right that my normal boot sequence does not. When I reboot in normal mode, everything is screwed up again.
I have no idea what statistics about my system I should include here, because I really have no idea what could possibly be wrong. I am running 32bits Natty in Classic mode, on an Ahtlon Dual Core 4850e machine, with a GeForce 6150 LE graphics card. These are the normal and recovery entries in my grub.cfg:

Recently updated to 11.4 and the graphics performance was terrible with the nouveau driver so I added the nvidia repository via YaST Community Repositories and installed the drivers via YaST. I have an nvidia FX5200 video card and a Samsung B2230 monitor. I ran nvidia-xconfig but the display only comes up in 1280 x 1024 mode. It should be 1920 x 1080. How can I get it to come up in the right mode and with 3D?
Here's the repo listing:
Code:
1 | download.nvidia.com-opensuse | nVidia Graphics Drivers | Yes | Yes
| 99 | rpm-md | ftp://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/11.4/
Looking in YaST, I see the nouveau package is still installed. Should I remove it? Should I delete the xorg.conf file? IIRC, things are supposed to be set automatically now days at boot up.
As part of the troubleshooting process for my web application, I was told to find out through PHPinfo if PHP is running in CGI mode. I have my phpinfo page up, but I'm not sure what I should be looking for.
