Aug 4, 2011

So i copied folder name "untitled folder" and pasted in desktop in suse linux. the folder (untitled) contains another folder name "file system". this file system folder contains two files (1)desktop.ini (2)pagefile.exe Then i delete the "untitled" to trash. the folder vanishes in desktop and landed in trash. When i try to empty the trash, the "untitled" refuses to get deleted. How to get rid of this virus in trash. I logged in another user not in root. even I am not able to change the permission to root.

I have a dual boot computer. The WindowsXP "side" has been infected with a rootkit virus. So far UBUNTU has not been affected to my knowledge. I have not yet removed the virus from the WindowsXP "side". I am thinking of deleting the NTFS partition and have the computer fully dedicated to UBUNTU. Now for my question. Is there a possibility that the virus resides in the MBR and that I need to "rebuild" the MBR to actually remove the virus?
Even more extreme, should I totally re-install UBUNTU in the name of safety and precaution.

I would like to install Windows as 2. O, but when I insert the original WindowsXP SP1, it loads up the files on the disc, and after that, a blue screen shows up, telling me, i have to remove viruses and the setup breaks down. I also tried it with Windows XP Pro, but the same problem.
Here is a Pic showing the exact Problem, except the upper part: PAGE-FAULT .... isnt there:

I have Windows 7 partitions and Ubuntu 10.04 installed on a single hard drive with dual boot. The Windows has been infected by a fake MS Malicious Software Removal Tool (so much for the free internet security suite). Does this virus endanger the Ubuntu partition and can Ubuntu be used to remove it?

I am going through some old baby pictures of my daughter over 15,000+ and she is only 3 years old.....
Here is my problem. I am moving and sorting all of these and tossing some. I have several times right clicked on the trash and by mistake clicked remove from panel. Is there anyway to hide that option for the trash? I know I have done this several times before and now its happening alto with the project I am working on. It would be nice if I could disable that option.

I have an old hard drive w/XandrOS that I decided to make external storage. I didn't bother wiping it. I figured I could just replace files on it like .mozilla folder.I currently have OSS 11.3 where I chose to copy and paste .mozilla from OSS to external HD. I was denied access to copy over certain files.Then I made the bonehead maneuver of trashing .mozilla from the external HD. Now, my trash can says that my access is denied to "cookperm.txt" and other files. I attempted to restore it, but it can't because the new .mozilla file is the external HD.Wow, did I corner myself. I could really use some help. Just want to eliminate that old

From what I gather, there's no way to remove the Trash icon from the Unity launcher, or to hide it; is this true? I noticed that if I delete ~/.local/share/Trash, the file re-appears if I click on the Trash icon in the launcher.

Is there a way to remove the Computer, Trash, and Home folder from the desktop and have them just in the panel? I like a clean desktop with no icons, and would like to use the top panel as a "dock" of sorts.

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10. From several days my Trash icon is disappeared from the bar. The real problem is that I cannot even access Trash from nautilus. When I click Trash in the sidebar, it says "The folder contents could not be displayed: Sorry, could not display the contents of 'trash': operation not supported"I really need to visit trash since i deleted an important directory by accident and need to recover it from trash.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and I'm having trouble emptying my trash bin. I've tried emptying the trash bin graphically but the items are still in there. I've also tried using nautilus to empty the trash but it didn't work either. I really need to free up some space because I'm down to 1.6 GBs of free space

Last night when I turned on my lap top (5 year old Acer TravelMate 4650), it was not able to boot up (10.04 LTS). No system files could be read and a lot of error messages was displayed. In fact, it has done a few checks for disk error lately during boot up, but no further warnings given. I gave up recovering, and simply re-installed Ubntu 10.04. I was wondering if this could be related to a virus attack?

I switched from OpenSUSE to Fedora and I moved a folder full of coursework and a backup of that folder (which was pretty outdated) onto a usb. Once I had installed Fedora, I first deleted the outdated backup, intending to make another fresh one but then I realised that somehow the original files hadn't copied from OpenSUSE onto the USB.
The situation I'm in now is that I only have the outdated backup in the trash can so I need that back but I get the following error message when I try and recover it:
Quote:
Error while copying to "desktop". There was an error getting information about the destination.
And then when I select the "Show more details" drop-down:
Quote:
Error stating file '/media/5E7A-32A1/desktop': No such file or directory

When I move something to Trash it doesn't show the option of "Empty Trash". I can use "move to Trash" and it just moving there like some ordinary folder, but shift+del give me an option for deleting the files. Using OpenSUSE 11.3 32bit.

My trash won't delete and it is causing me to not be able to use my flashdrive. When I tell my trash to empty it will either say it will but the files will still be there or it will say a can't b/c i didn't delete it from my trash(screenshot). I don't know what to do to get it to get rid of the files since I tried telling it to bypass the trash and that didn't do anything.

I'm a beginner at backing up my Ubuntu system, but I've set Simple Backup to do a backup once a week. I deleted the oldest of these files, but now it's sitting in my Trash and I can't empty it. I get a permission denied error for the folders within the backup folder in the trash, yet I can't restore the folder either - Ubuntu says it 'failed to determine the original path' for the folder. I've just discovered this in Xubuntu Jaunty, but I'm confident the same will happen in any other WM I choose (I have several installed - I like variety ).
It's not a huge file, but it's hanging out there and I'd like to get it either deleted or restored. Possibly I oughtn't to have deleted it in the first place (it usually lives in /var/backup, which I can't access except as root). The files, which I probably deleted /as/ root, show up in my user trash rather than root's trash. I found the trash in ~/.local/share/Trash/files, but I'm not sure if just deleting them as root would be a good.

Installed Ubuntu 9.1 karmic koala in a dualboot with Windows XP to remove a virus from the windows drive. I think the virus was found but somehow I have done something to cause a invalid drive error message at startup. I read that gparted may by a way to fix this, but I don't want to do anymore damage.
This is what is displayed when I start Gparted /home/ubuntu/Desktop/Screenshot--dev-sda - GParted.png [IMG]file:///tmp/moz-screenshot.png[/IMG][IMG]file:///tmp/moz-screenshot-1.png[/IMG]

I have a problem with a couple of folders in the Trash. If I click on the Trash icon, 2 foldersare there, and when I try to delete them, it just says "Failed to delete the item from the trash"
But when I go to .local/share/Trash there are no files there! Anyway, I tried using the command "sudo rm -rf .local/share/Trash", it shows no error, but the files continue when I click in the trash icon.

For a reason I cannot remember, some months ago I installed Rhythmbox 10.0.6 as an upgrade to the standard version in Karmic ( I think it was in an attempt to get Ipod working).Now that I have upgraded to Ubuntu 10.0.4 LTS with Rhythmbox 10.0.8 installed, I have a problem that when I try to start Rhythmbox, the old (unwanted) version starts, even though I have checked and the later version is installed.I am unable to find a way to remove 10.0.6 as in the terminal when I use commandremove --purge rhythmbox-0.12.6the message I get is "Couldn't find package rhythmbox-0.12.6" but I know it's there as the folder is in filesystem/usr/local/src/rhythmbox-0.12.6Can anybody suggest a way I can remove this old, unwanted version soI can use the new version with all its lovely benefits?
