Ubuntu :: 11.04 Goes To Sleep On Inserting Any USB Device?
Jul 6, 2011
When I insert any USB device (flash drive, bluetooth device, Nokia USB data cable), my system goes in suspend mode (standby). Same thing happens when I remove the device. I have to wake up the computer by pressing a key or the power button. By the way, I don't think this ever happened in the first 3 or 4 days of installing Natty.
(Opensuse 11.4, nvidia, core2) PROBLEM: cpu goes into C3 powersaving state even on full load (even when disabled from bios) (acpi=off prevents this). opensuse 11.4 kernel ignores boot option processor.max_cstate=2 (option has no effect). cpufreq util should be able to change governor policy to performance, however acpi-cpufreq driver doesn't load: modprobe acpi-cpufreq -> FATAL: error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib.../acpi-cpufreq.ko): No such device
I recently started having this odd behaviour while using and loading cpufrequtils on boot, I don't know if it is happening to someone else.During boot I'm getting( when /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils invokes /etc/init.d/loadcpufreq to load the proper module):
Loading cpufreq kernel modules...FATAL: Error inserting speedstep_centrino (/lib/modules/3.0.0-1-amd64/kernel/drivers/cpufreq/speedstep-centrino.ko): No such device FATAL: Error inserting pcc_cpufreq (/lib/modules/3.0.0-1-amd64/kernel/drivers/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.ko): No such device
# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file) # # This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using # values from the debconf database.
[code]...
And after that my X is not working. And when i try sudo modprobe nvidia I get this:
FATAL: Error inserting nvidia (/lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/nvidia/nvidia.ko): No such device
I want to turn an old (2004) compaq computer into a webserver using debian. 2.8ghz celeron, 756mb ram, 80gb IDE HD.I installed debian through the first DVD, without laptop and desktop environments, and did a guided partition.This is the second time this problem has occurred, at first i thought i would try re-installing, but no avail.
As soon as i turn the computer on, i get a grub loader screen with two options, Debian or single user debian. Both choices present same issue. Once i select either one, it seems to load then says "fatal: error inserting fan: no such device." Continues to load, and then "fatal: error inserting thermal, unknown symbol in module"Continues to load then "volume group ***** not found, volume group ***** not found" "enter pass phrase to unlock disk" I enter the pass phrase. "Successful" then a bunch of stuff loads and hangs at "end trace de8............" And it won't let me type anything or do anything except hit the power button.
I have Ubuntu 8.04, and Rythmbox 0.11 I am using for my home music source. I have been building a music library on my hard drive by inserting CD's, then using the "Copy to library" function. This works fine, but when I insert the CD, Rythmbox stops playing from the play list and switches to playing the CD. How do I stop this?
I can (and do) stop the player, manually go back to the play list, restart the player, then I can transfer the music from the CD to the hard drive. I'd just as soon not have it auto play. Or, alternately, is there another jukebox like player with more features that can handle the above? I find the shuffling isn't what I like, it seems to play some songs a lot more then others but I can live with that.
If I try and paste text from the clipboard when using vim, it automatically inserts hash at the start of every line. This is driving me mad! How to I get rid of it? Ive deleted all my .vim files/directories in my home directory.
I am having some trouble with usb flash drive lately:when plugging in: all nautilus windows close all icons disappear from the desktop but reappear seconds later after a couple of seconds of high cpu usage I can open a new nautilus windows and the drive is properly mounted.I have apport enabled: once in a while there is apport running and trying to gather a report which cannot be sent because it is an assert failure.. once in a blue moon apport gives me the not-enough-memory error message (screenshot here) but I don't think it should need more than 400MB I had at that moment.dmesg gives this..:
Code: [100146.868071] usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8 [100147.003565] usb 1-4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
how to reset a root password after inserting a live cd,ie . i need to reset my existing ubuntu root password, other options all i tried its gud , but need to knw hw to do this while having a live cd and resetting it !
What command is executed when you plug in a USB Flash drive manually in the PC's USB port?I am pluggin in the device and it is automatically getting mounted in /media/ed7a753f-df88-4984-b65a-5d3a8cc2714a. After I unmount the device using umount /media/ed7a753f-df88-4984-b65a-5d3a8cc2714a, how do I remount it from the terminal so that the weird directory gets created automatically and the Flash Drive gets mounted there?Another question, where does the system get this ed7a753f-df88-4984-b65a-5d3a8cc2714a. Is it some kind of identification of the disk?
# # insert the line '-A INPUT -i eth0 -j ACCEPT' # in iptables # /-A INPUT -i eth0 -j ACCEPT/a -A INPUT -i edge0 -j ACCEPT
but when i run sed -f script iptables. it just echo's it to the the screen with my line added and not into the actual file. anyone know what i am doing wrong?
I know that Apache creates as many instances of a CGI program as required but I have no idea how those instances write to the same file in an orderly manner.For example, a CGI program called by Apache inserts additional data in a file, is that file made automatically unavailable to the other instances (children) of this CGI program while it is inserting the data? Or should the CGI program do that?
I need to either locate a script that is similar to what I am needing or figure out a better way of doing what I need. I have mutiple shops with AIX unix servers, using ksh with virtual terminals that connect. since these are on an internal network we have them connecting to the server as either usr01, usr02, etc. what I need to do is add 15 user's ranging from usr01-usr15 into /etc/passwd each usr is identical in such that each line contains
Code:
usr01::0:0::/usr/tops:/bin/ksh
only difference is the usr# changes. I wrote a script where I was just adding these all to the /etc/passwd but now I have been tasked with adding them to these shops but with out any duplicates. is there any way to have a script check the file to see if the usr# exists and if so proceed to the next number and then input the usr#::0:0::/usr/tops:/bin/ksh into the file?
I am running Red Hat with 2.6.18-194.8.1.el5PAE kernel version. I am trying to run encryptfs to encrypt a partition on my hard drive. One of the kernel modules necessary is the md5.ko. I noticed it wasn't loaded in when doing an lsmod. I tried running modprobe md5 and it fails to load:
I just bought an external USB DVD (ASUS SDRW-08D15-U) to use on a Kubuntu-based LinuxMCE system. The idea is to set up the computer in the basement and to retain the ability to play DVDs on the 2nd floor home theater. Unfortunately the DVD would not play movies, music, or show files when connected to the Kubuntu/LinuxMCE machine. I tested the drive on my windows laptop and it worked fine. Then I connected it to my Ubuntu desktop machine and got the same behavior as on the MCE machine.
This leads me to believe that my hardware is functioning fine, but I have an Ubuntu/Kubuntu issue. I figure if I can get the drive to work on my Ubuntu desktop, then I can apply the fix to my MCE machine. I opened the Palimpsest Disk Utility (System>Administration>Disk Utility) and saw my internal DVD listed (ASUS DRW-1612BL). When I hot-plugged the external DVD it appeared underneath the internal drive. But here is the strange part - when I insert any type of media into the external drive it Vanishes from the list, accompanied by a repetitive pattern of clicking and whirring noises. Very mysterious.
Is there a way to set up a custom keyboard layout? (ex: set q to the f key, etc.) I have looked around, but have been unable to find one.
If there isn't one, then a (basically) equivalent solution for me would be to map some of the symbols I need (ex: Δx,Σ,ect.) to ctrl-/,ctrl-., ect. through keyboard shortcuts. The problem I run into here is that I do not know of any commands that paste a specific symbol into the focused text input area. Does anyone know of one?
After a April Fools' Day joke with fake mails (simply faked by forwarding & changing the text body) I tried to insert "real" fake mail into my online GoogleMail account. It was incredibly simple and that freaks me out a little.
I simply created the mail in Kontact, moved it to the folder I wanted it to appear in and synced - done. Someone with better knowledge might probably even manipulate the Kontact database on my computer and then sync, even changing old mails from years ago.
Is there a way to prevent this or find out that the mail wasn't really e.g. sent but just faked? I'm working at the university as a teaching assistant at the moment and from time to time you have those "No, I didn't miss the deadline, I send the mail with the paper to you" students. It was never necessary until now, but I always thought that I might check that by simply asking the student to show me his or her "Sent" folder in their online mail account. But that won't work if you can insert mails into your "Sent" folder via disconnected IMAP.
I am using Debian testing with KDE 4.6.5. However, when I insert my ubs stick, on top of the expected kde response I get a Nautilus window popping up (which is the Gnome file manager). How can I disable this?
I've down loaded mysql database file and now I'm looking at adding it into a new dedicated server. Should I upload that sql file to the root folder I created for the domain and insert it with shh like that? If not where should I upload this mysql file to insert it to the new database. It's rather large so I have to use SHH Fir example if this is the code,
Code:
mysql -uUSERNAME -pPASSWORD DATABASENAME < MYDATABASE.sql where is that actual location of MYDATABASE.sql
I want to insert a picture into a group of pictures (I memorized their names in a text file) resulting a new group of picture (which I also memorized their name in another text file), but I have a problem doing that. I want to write something like that:
I'm gonna replace my machine's ip address and hostname using awk command. the pattern of the file is like the following...ip address="192.168.1.100"the script must ask the ip address from the user and replace it with the ip address in the quotation.
