Ubuntu :: 10.4 Lucid Not Recognized ?
May 14, 2010
About two weeks ago I upgraded from Karmic to Lucid. The upgrade went fine, everything works wonderfull, except maybe for Wine but am still figuring that out.
What I find a bit strange is that on the boot-up screen (where I get the choice between the different OS's on my two hard-drives) I still see Karmic listed on the partition where I upgraded (see attachment: on /dev/sda1).
When I boot-up, I first get this message: Mounting: mounting none on /dev failed: no such device
This stays about 20 seconds on screen after which Lucid starts up and gives me the log-in screen.

I just installed 10.04 and am pleased w/ things, for the most part. However, I cannot get a DVD disc to play (a movie, for instance) or be recognized unless I shut down the system and restart (provided I have already launched a Web video, or something). The DVD-ROM is dead to the world as far as disc recognition goes.
Things were just great in Karmic so this is completely confusing to me.

I have recently upgraded to Lucid with a clean install. I have two NVIDIA GeForce 7300GT cards with 3 21" monitors connected to them (two to card 1, 1 to card 2 although sometimes I plug in my projector so its 2 to both).I previously had Karmic installed and was able to use all three (or four) monitors without any problems. Now, however, Nvidia-settings only recognizes the one GPU. It will only recognize one or the other. If I edit xorg.conf so that Screen0 is on PCI:3 instead of PCI:1 (where my two cards are located) It will switch over to that GPU, but I can not get both to work together at the same time.
I have tried using my old xorg.conf but it does not work. I've tried editing the current xorg to have one monitor running off of each card and it will not work.

I have a Netgear USB wireless NIC and neither Ubuntu or Lubuntu Live images can see it. I have tried copying wlan from another machine and installing the packages, but that doesn't work.
I recently seen a thread showing what the file is that is missing in the Lucid live images that was present on the Karmic and earlier images, but I can't find it nor remember what the file was called.

I just installed Ubuntu 11.04. The drive was formatted when I installed so it's 100% Ubuntu. The only major problem I have encountered is that Ubuntu will not recognize my SD cards. I really need to access these cards, all my film footage is on there. I think the internal SD card reader (If such a thing exists) would have been deleted during the installation process. I am a greenthumb to Ubuntu and have never used it before so I am rather stuck...

I have a backup HDD with a different distro for my laptop and i can boot into it via external usb or if swapped into the laptop. This HDD/install in question is debian testing and was working fine, the issue arose suddenly. I was first suspecting a failure of hardware somewhere on the motherboard, but the hdd i was using with an external usb adapter also works when installed into the machine. also, the HDD is recognized once i have booted using the external HDD and distro, but it is not recognized by the bios. so i dunno, my first guess is something became corrupt within the testing install, but i guess its also possible that there is some wrong with the HDD but thats not immediately apparent as all the data is still accessible.
Should also note that the HDD with testing on it is also recognized when connected via the external usb adapter, while booted from alternative distro/HDD.
Also. just tried this, but i can get the testing HDD/disto to boot if connected externally. it was going pretty quick, but there i did catch a line about a corrupt filesystem. any commands to run to see what might be going on?? log files to look at?

I have unzipped glibc-2.2.3 in a temp directory and configured using:
The configuration seems to run fine but when I do make I get the following error:
This is the error in the config.log file:
I have installed the libgd package using apt-get install libgd2-xpm-dev and I also tried recompiling using libgd2-noxpm-dev package but I still get the same error.

What's the procedure for updating from Lucid Beta 2 to Lucid LTS? Is it just "apt-get upgrade"? Or would I be better off with a clean install?

I recently upgraded from Karmic to Lucid via the Update Manager. I would like to upgrade further by switching from 32 Bit to 64 Bit. I downloaded the Lucid 64 Bit ISO and wrote an install disk. When I reboot the computer with the install disk nothing happens.

I recently installed Ubuntu 10 and when checking the version using system|about it says:
Code:
You are using Ubuntu 10.10 - the Maverick Meerkat - released in October 2010 and supported until April 2012. Now, I run some shellscripts and they check the distro. lucid-wx is not in supported versions but lucid is. Where can I change the lucid-wx to lucid?
Is it somewhere in a textfile or so? I cannot find it in /etc/issues or using man -n of man -a or so.
Also, it is not mentioned in /etc/lsb-release.

I'm using Ubuntu with GNOME and alt+tab for switching windows does not work for me. I checked the system prefs & the keyboard shortcut was correct set.
I even tried changing the key to something else (that doesn't contain alt). It didn't work either. It appears as if the manager didn't recognize the shortcut & the key strokes were passed through to the current application. Rebooting didn't help either. Note that I can do alt+f5, alt+space. alt+f2 didn't work though.

I'm running Lubuntu 10.04 on a Thinkpad T41. I had been running for a week before realizing that my USB devices (card reader and thumb drive) were not being recognized. I thought that the issue might be related to my aging Thinkpad but I installed the hard driveat is running Slackware and I had no issues with USB devices. I reinserted the hard drive with Lubuntu and was unable to recognize any USB devices.Has anyone else noticed this issue? If so, is there a fix for this issue?

I just built a new PC, and was hoping to install Ubuntu on it. However, my hard drive is not being recognized by gParted or the installer. I think this may be due to the fact that my drive is SATA 3 and there is no support for it. the specs I think are important are below, tell me if you need to know anything else
CPU: Intel i7
Harddrive: Western Digital 1 TB SATA 3 Black Edn.
Motherboard: ASUS Rampage III Extreme

I have a great music collection that I keep in Banshee. When I plug in my ipod it works perfect and syncronizes well. But when I try to give my dad my music on his RCA H125A, it opens the mp3 player like a mass storage device and it never appears on Banshee. Is there a way to get it to work?

I have tagged my mp3 collection using Rhytmbox. The problem is that my mp3 player is a Windows based and does not recognize these ID tags. Also, when I examine files in Windows, I see only empty spaces. When I did tagging in Windows, mp3 player recognized them without any problems. Any recommendation for some SW to ID tag my mp3s that would also be recognized by Windows/my mp3 player?

webcam is listed if I do "lsusb" in a terminal, but no software recognises it at all.
I cannot get cam to be recognised by Cheese, aMSN, Empathy or emesen.
Trying to work out if its a prob with my cam or whether there are still probs with using cams on Linux.

I was trying to help my dad upgrade the RAM in his Toshiba laptop running Ubuntu 10.10. I checked on several websites to verify that I had got the proper RAM to upgrade from his 2x512MB to 2x1GB (his machine is old, max RAM is 2GB).I swapped the RAM out and rebooted, as I've done many times on other machines, and nothing happened-- the HD light was lit, but nothing else, no bios messages, nothing, just a black screen.
I thought maybe I had bad RAM so I swapped in another set that I had, and this time it tried to boot, but when Ubuntu loaded it died with messages saying that it could not find/mount the hard drive.I was able to put the original RAM back in and it worked fine. I'm pretty puzzled by this-- how could the RAM affect the HD? Is this a sign of needing to upgrade the BIOS or something?

I am running Ubuntu 10.04.03 on an ASUS P5VD2-X. There are numerous HDD attached, but one is uniquely Win XP, the other uniquely Ubuntu. Boot choice is via a GRUB loader. Ubuntu is the first choice normally. The problem is that more often than not, the system does not seem to be able to recognise the CD or DVD reader/writer. On some random occasions, they are recognised, but mostly not. But - and here is the upsetting bit - this problem never occurs when I boot up on Win XP. The CD/DVD devices are instantly and reliably recognised each and every time. So I guess that rules out a hardware or BIOS problem. This is a particularly annoying problem as use of the optical drives is required frequently, and it galls me having to revert to Windows just to use them.

I have a 2nd hard drive (500 GB) that I keep my media on. When I tried to access it, it wasn't showing up in places or even places > computer. I used system > administration > disk utility. On the left hand side it shows the drive listed with the type and model number. Right under that it shows 500 GB Hard Drive unrecognized unknown or unused. If possible I would like to recover the media on this drive. I had setup this drive as ext3 and had it mount /media/sdb1. I can go to /media/sdb1 in the file browser but nothing is there.

I've been using Ubuntu 9.10 'in anger' for a couple of weeks now and overall I'm impressed. However, a couple of days ago my old Epson C46 (which had been working fine under Karmic) died, and I had a look for a replacement.
I decided on a Canon MP270 because Canon seemed to have gone to the trouble of providing Linux drivers on their website. I even phoned Canon and they confirmed it should work fine.
Today the AIO arrived and I downloaded the printer and scanner drivers from Canon. I could't get the install.sh files to run - tried ./ sudo and sh etc, no joy. Anyway, I used the package manager to install the .deb files and that seemed to go OK.
The printing side of things works fine but I can't get the scanner recognized by Xsane.......
