Ubuntu :: 10.10 Not Starting After Hardware Upgrade - Too Many Connections
Apr 25, 2011
GNU GRUB starts up. I dual boot the latest version of Ubuntu and Windows- select Ubuntu
It says too many connections
Then shows a screen loading Ubuntu 10.10 (64-bit)
Then black screens and nothing happens
This only happened after I swapped out new hardware
My old hardware was:
Motherboard- Gigabyte 790XTA-UD4
Processor- AMD Phenom II Quad Core Black at 3.4
Graphics card- ATI Radeon HD 5850
The new hardware (in there now):
Motherboard- an MSI 890FXA-GD70 (MS-7640)
Processor- AMD Phenom II 6-Core at 3.3
Graphics card- ATI Radeon HD 6970
Nothing was or is overclocked
I did nothing to Ubuntu after or before installing the hardware
have a problem with my network-manager in ubuntu 10.10.when I dial one of my vpn connections, my other vpn connections be disabled and I can't use them!I tried to restart network-manager and gnome-panel, but it does't seem to solve this problem.
I launched 11.04 upgrade from a 10.10 ubuntu. Now default linux does not boot it blocks on the ubuntu screen with dot not moving. Dot come back alive when I shut down system. Commands does not work. I can launch an older kernel but it is a pain, and I cant change boot order too, which is a big WAF issue. What can I check or do?
I ran update-manager earlier today and when I next booted I was told I had insufficient hardware to run unity -- despite it running just fine before the update. Now every time I boot I don't get the message, but it still won't run unity.I have tried downgrading them by forcing versions in synaptic but I keeps on wanting to remove large numbers of other packages that depend on them.
I just upgraded from F12 to F13 and the result is a mess. From F11 to F12, I*used preupgrade and it worked flawlessly. This time, the process ended on a blank screen. So, I downloaded the DVD and I suppose the files downloaded by preupgarde were used as there were almost no connections to the net during the upgrade process. The problem now is that apparently almost all the FC12 files are still on my system:
Of course, as I said, the previous upgrade went flawlessly and I didn't check what happened on the system with the rpm and locate commands but I doubt is looked that bad. Seeing what kind of mess my system was turned into, I now worry about the next upgrade.
After an upgrade to 11.3 my openoffice will not start anymore.Starting with soffice in terminal gives:~> sofficeterminate called after throwing an instance of 'com::sun::star::uno::RuntimeException'
I have a file server running samba 3.4.0. I just upgraded ubuntu to 9.10. The upgrade was unfortunately stopped in the middle, but I think I managed to complete it.The problem is that now samba will not work after a reboot. The daemons are running, but any attempt to connect from a windows machine fails (Windows 7: the network path was not found). Manually restarting the service fixes the problem, but I need a more stable solution!Interestingly, I can ssh to the machine, or rdp to a virtual machine running on it.The logs don't seem to report any error:
I have a problem after upgrade from F13 to F14. I used the DVD i386 Iso on my Netbook MSI Wind U100 but it's don't start. It's load the services and it's stuck in the Fedora logo. I boot into Runlevel 1 to see the logs but there is no error. Then I run init 5 and it's stuck after the service ATD load. I don't want to do a clean install.
I have this 11.0 64bit workstation here. It has been running flawlessly for the longest time. It is setup really nicely for this particular job.Anyways, I would to upgrade it to 11.2 64bit without starting from scratch. What would be the best, simplest way to do this?
I've been using ubuntu for a couple of years rather successfully on my dual-boot Vista/Ubuntu. It upgraded to 8.0(4?) LTS, 10.04LTS and I kept it there until this afternoon I followed the instructions on the ubuntu site to open up a terminal and update-manager --somearg to provide me with a nice little "Upgrade" button on the update manager. I clicked said button per the instructions, let it do it's downloading and whatever else it does. The last step of the installation is a system reboot. I let it do that, and then my grub menu comes up as more-or-less this:
If I select the top one, I get: Code: Starting up ... with a blinking cursor under the S for a LONG time (used the power switch after ~40 mins). I tried the second 2.6.32-32 option for recovery mode. It spit a bunch of gibberish to the screen for a couple seconds and then stopped, presumably doing the same thing, just with 100% more gibberish. I tried booting into Vista, that worked fine. Just to reiterate, I've not yet seen a 10 LTS login screen or desktop, and can't get one yet (just a "Starting up ...") Just to add, I did try searching, but since the only info I had to go on was 8 LTS to 10 LTS upgrade, and "Starting up ...", well those are just hard keywords to get any meaningful info.
Is it fair to say that connLimit and hashlimit are very similiar on Linux i.e. while hashlimit caters to limits for groups of ports, they both set the connection rate limit per host? How in IPTables, do I configure a policy that limits connections on a port that encapsulates the total sum of all connections from all hosts? i.e. I do not want to allow more than 6000conn/minute for port range that is the sum of all connecting hosts?
I recently installed Fedora 15 now, and during installation I set the internet connection manually, then did update and after reboot, the internet connection settings have been removed. Now I can not set because the network connection to the Internet Connection is inactive. I mention that before the update was functional internet connection.
I was about to do upgrade from 11.3 to 11.4.I was following the guide I found in opensuse's website. I was to the point where I had to disable all 11.3 repositories and add the 11.4 at that point I forgot to change my nvidia repository ( I have a g210m graphic card).
thus after the upgrade the X could not start at all. I think this was because Yast could not find the nvidia driver.
Using text mode YaSt2 I added the nvidia driver but after restart I can not see and X running. I receive an error message that the current kernel can not be loaded!!!
I also checked in command line if there is something like Sax2.. but I couldnot find anything.
I installed OS11.4 on my old laptop, Compaq Armada E500., 512MB RAM, ATI Rage Mobility. During installation I chose "minimal server" and added some development packages, lxde and a little more. I chose to start in runlevel 3 which is full networking without X. Still, when computer is booted it tries to start Xorg which doesn't work because of some problem w driver. The start-up seems to stop there, it never loads completely - seems most things in runlevel 3 are not started (see below) I can manually login on laptop and fix it - but never permanently, same thing again after reboot.
I have checked /etc/inittab & yast - both states default runlevel is 3. I have checked services to be started both directly, browsing directory /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/, and with YaST, it is very clear X should not load during boot. But, as said, it does.. I don't really care about the driver problem right now, I can fix that later when I have more time. So how do I stop X from getting started automatically?
More info, if needed: The installation also stopped with message on tty1 "Starting YaST2" and tty8 showing errors with graphics driver (mach64). The system seemed to be installed though, so I simply rebooted (issuing "reboot" from tty2).
[Code]....
I'm not completely sure where it stops, network is configured but keyboard is wrong and mysql & everything after is not started, so somewhere between S02network and S06kbd. I'm going to use it as a server for testing purposes so no X is actually needed - however I do want to have X & lxde installed just in case, my Internet connection at home is terribly slow so I need most things I might need in the future installed today.
I keep getting the following msg as I try to upgrade from 10.04 -> 10.10 ... "Could not calculate the upgrade An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade: E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages. This can be caused by:
* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
If none of this applies, then please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bug report." I don't think any of the issues above apply - can anyone offer advice on how to get around or "force " the upgrade
I installed 8.04 on my EeePC 2005. I use the Windows dual boot option. The netbook's hard drive was factory set with two partitions c and d. Windows XP is on c; I put Ubuntu on d. In Windows, I have both wireless and ethernet (sp?) working fine.In Ubuntu, I have no wireless and no land line. The manual connection wizard pop-up shows no networks anywhere. How can I get Ubuntu connected? Would it be simpler to load another distro like Easy Peasy on top of Ubuntu? Or should I delete Ubuntu and start over? Or is there an easy fix for 8.04?
I've been trying to access the internet on my desktop running 10.4 x64 through my laptop running windows XP. The laptop has a wireless connection and I'm trying to use an ethernet cable to bridge the connections. I've hooked them both up, and under Network Connections in XP I selected my wireless connection and the 1394 connection and right-clicked to bridge, and it does. But ubuntu doesn't want to pick it up.
When I click on the network manager icon next to the date in the upper right corner of my screen, my network connections do not show up. I have added two DSL connections on my laptop (username & password) but it doesn't show up. Everyday I need to use
Code: sudo pppoeconf if I wish to connect to the internet.
Both these connections are added in the same way on my Desktop Computer and it shows up on the network manager. One of them is even the default which connects automatically on startup.
Because it's not working I assume network manager is not compatible with my laptop. Are there patches to install or other programs that can easily manage my internet connection?
Firestarter sometimes shows up to a dozen different ip connections for a single webpage that I open. This is for the first webpage I open, not after I have been browsing for awhile so they are not old connections that have not timed out. This just doesn't seem normal to me since other installs I have had of ubuntu have only shown one or two firefox connections at all times.
I am noticing really odd behaviour after upgrading from 8.10 to 9.10 (via 9.04). My server frequently becomes unreachable. I am using it as an application server, running Apache, JBoss and MySql. Once the server goes idle, all web connections time out. SSH also times out. Usually the server wakes up on second SSH attempt and then everything: Web, SSH etc seems to run fine.
This is a server machine with no GUI. Can anyone point me to power management or other such settings I can tune from commandline? I have disabled power management by adding kernel parameter acpi=off. I still have the problem. The first network connection after the machine has gone idle takes a long time. All later connections run pretty smoothly.
I've installed Samba on my Home Theater PC but none of my other computers can stay connected to it. Sometimes it drops connections right away, other times it takes several minutes.either way, a pc will never stay connected longer than 20 minutes.
I have the following OS's in my home OSX Snow Leopard Server 2003 Server 2008 Windows XP
I have a small business that I run Squid and Dansguardian on Ubuntu for network proxy filtering, among other things. This works great, but does not block SSL connections on Port 443, such as https proxies. I understand that this is because this type of configuration is a "transparent proxy".
Is there a way to set one up "non-transparent" and, would that filter https?
I cannot blanket block 443, because some sites need it.
I have read that one can re-compile Squid to work with SSL, but not being a super guru, not sure of the implications of doing that.
I need some suggestions on software. I would like to offer remote desktop support to some of our clients, but some of them are using ISP's that block incoming connections so, VNC is out of the question. I was wondering if there is something similar to logmein for ubuntu?
I have recently installed lucid 10.04, and I am having difficulty accessing my wireless. Following instructions to install the drivers for my wireless card, I always run into a problem when I need to configure my card. When I go to system-administration-network, there is no connections tab listed. I can only access General, DNS and hosts.
The server kicked me out because Dolphin opens many many connections wile browsing through the servers filesystem with dolphin. i have to wait several minutes to be able to upload files after the limit reached. i am using kubuntu 10.04
Did ragemaw ever get that missing connections tab? Mine is missing too and furthermore wireshark cannot set up on any interfaces, because it cannot find them.
I am trying to use Bittornado with iptables via Firestarter. Previously, I had no problems, but now I have started using Firestarter, traffic is blocked. AIUI, after selecting the .torrent file, the client (me) connects to the tracker. In Firestarter, I see that my IP is trying to connect to various ports, all of which are blocked.I assumed the problem was that because Firestarter has a restrictive outbound traffic policy, that I needed to add Bittornado to it. So in Bittornado, I selected the acceptable ports as 10000-10010 (randomized), and then in Firestarter for the outbound policy I allowed those same ports.The inbound traffic policy has no rules. All traffic is permitted and I have a direct connection to the Internet (no NAT). I do not understand why, if I have selected the permissible outbound ports in Firestarter, and also selected those same ports in Bittornado, why connections between my IP and the tracker are blocked?
I checked all the logs in /var/log but couldn't see anything (I was hoping /var/log/auth.log would have it, just like it has ssh connections in there). I've got a machine that several people VNC into and I would like to keep track of things. Are there other VNC servers out there that keep logs? I could switch, but I went with krfb because it works perfectly for me and came already installed.
I have recently installed MATLAB on my computer, which I have access to licenses from the engineering department license server at my university.This means, that in order to run MATLAB I have to open two SSH connections first:ssh -q -n -x -L 1711:matlab-lmserv.eng.myuni.ac.uk:1711 usrname@gate.eng.myuni.ac.ukssh -q -n -x -L 20001:matlab-lmserv.eng.myuni.ac.uk:20001 usrname@gate.eng.myuni.ac.ukEach of these commands will prompt me for my department password.What I'd like to do is have a script which opens both these connections and then starts MATLAB, without any other input. How would that be done?
