It was installing for one week and now it seems to be not. It gives no error message no action, but just static. Is that a paid version or i am missing something basic? I have tried to do the following
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get update

If i use my Ubuntu some times per week, there isn't any problem. But if i don't use it for a short time (a week), when i want use it again and select it on GRUB.. after the first loading screen (on Ubuntu 10.04 the purple screen with Ubuntu in white and some points under), my screen is black. The computer screen is receiving signal because the led is green and not brown/orange like when is on standby mode. On Windows i haven't any problem.
First time it happened with Ubuntu 9.10. I didn't got solution for it and i format the partition and install the 10.04. But now it happen again with 10.04. I have an ATI 5770 and i have tried drivers since 9.12 till 10.4 (last ones the best i have had) On versions before 9.10 i had no problem, but i can't confirm that, because i had other graphic card (NVIDIA 9800GT). But the 5770 didn't work well on previous version so i updated to 9.10 and after this problem, updated to 10.04.
At spanish forum, people don't know solution for this problem, they never read about a similar problem. I hope you know a solution for it, because the only one i found and work is.. format and reinstall.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 which was upgrade from a 9.x install. I never had this problem on my 9.x install, but since the "upgrade" I experience my desktop freezing. I'm not exactly sure how to troubleshoot this.In looking at /var/log/messages the last entries I see before me having to a hard reboot are:
Code:
Sep 27 19:27:07 gingerk sudo: pam_sm_authenticate: username = [me]
Sep 27 19:27:07 gingerk sudo: pam_sm_authenticate: /home/me is already mounted

I am using the following to find the Day of the Week on my server which is in UTC.
Code:
But say if I want to find the Day of the Week in another timezone, how would one go about it. I had a look at date --help but could not find any timezone related switches so am not sure if this is possible using this method.
Update:
This appears to work but is this the only way?

I have a single hard-drive on a spare computer and I decided to try out Ubuntu on recommendation from a friend. I really like it now but at first I just dual-booted it, and now I want Vista gone. I know it's unnecessary to have just one OS but my hard-drive isn't particularly big and I'd prefer to have Ubuntu by itself. Can anyone tell me how to eliminate vista and leave Ubuntu as my sole operating system (I've all my files from computer on another computer so I don't have to worry about losing anything).

Suse 11.3/Gnome 2.30.0
Evolution 2.30.1.2
I cannot get the monthly view to start the week on Sunday. The settings seem right but they don't stick. Restarting Evolution always defaults to a week start on Monday even though the defaults display Sunday. I've viewed the default settings the following two ways:
Within Evolution... Edit > Preferences > Calendar and Tasks > week starts on "Sunday"
GNOME Configuration editor.../apps/evolution/calendar/display/week_start_day = 0 (Sunday)

I'd like to tweak my Conky so it automatically displays the days of the week correctly. So for example, if TODAY were Tuesday, it would look like this:
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
[etc.]
And then tomorrow, *automatically*, it would look like this:
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
[etc.]
I know I can get it to display *today's* date like this:
${time %A}
But how do I get it to display tomorrow's date?

Coming from Fedora, I had a Web/Mail/SQL server with 2 hdd's. One (sda1) was the one with Fedora on, and all backups were on sdb1.
Now, I started having issues with SDA1, so I started copying files to SDB1. 2 weeks later I noticed similar issues, and started copying new back files to SDB1. But once I started doing this I lost connection with the server.
Turns out that (in rescue mode) that I couldn't access SDA anymore, it couldn't even read stored data on it, etc. It didn't show up in fdisk anymore either.
So after a lot of trying I asked to replace the disk and started installing Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on it. After having installed everything, I tried to restore one of the MySQL backups that was on the SDB disk, but halfway I started getting errors. I stopped the restore and did some other stuff that I wanted to take care of first (apache2 config etc.).
I then tried to reboot to be sure that that was working as well, and then the problems started. I couldn't access the server anymore, and in rescue mode (which is a live cd my host provides, it's a dedicated server btw.) I didn't see SDB anymore.
I told them this and now after they told me that they managed to get it back, I went into the rescue mode and tried to recover bad blocks with the e2fsck command.
Code:
Trying to restore this bad superblock doesn't work. I've tried for almost all of them:
Code:
e2fsck: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open /dev/sdb1
Could this be a zero-length partition?
What are the chances of TWO hard disks failing? Surely there must be something else wrong? Did a bad driver (which would be weird, since I didn't do any updates like that) screw both of my hard disks up in Fedora?
Also, I must note that when I tried to copy the backups from SDB1 to SDA1 (the new one). I got a read only (??) error, and some other I/O errors.
Just for information, I'll show fstab and mtab as well: /etc/fstab
Code:
Code:
I haven't added the sdb here yet, but it was here in Fedora so that can't be the problem.
And this is /var/log/messages when the problems emerged
Code:
Then on the ubuntu forum they proposed me to do this:
I ran smartctl and it gave me this:

I am trying to boot up Vista Home Premium from USB since my internal (bootable) CD-RW drive has failed and I cannot boot up Vista from CD.
I have Ubuntu running in the Windows partition and all my windows files are in there so I don't want to do a full installation of Ubuntu (yet).
I formatted an 8GB USB stick into two partitions
I then copied over to /dev/sdb1 all files from a Vista CD using an external CD-RW drive (which is not recognised as bootable on USB port).
In my Dell BIOS settings I changed the boot sequence to be bootable from USB disk first.
then I tried to reboot Vista installation in the USB stick.
But I get this message ..."this is not a bootable disk .. insert a bootable floppy"
So I could not boot up the Vista installation files.
When the boot flag is "on" in a GParted created partition does this make the partition DOS bootable for Vista installation?
My question is - What utility in Ubuntu 10.10 can create a DOS bootable partition on a USB stick? It seems that the MBR might have been overwritten when I installed Grub 2.0.
I can Grub dual boot between Windows and Ubuntu but I can't get very far with Windows .. stalls in safe mode.
So a Vista repair is called for. I would prefer not to reinstall Vista afresh at this stage.
There is a thread here explaining how to repair Vista bootloader
[url]
But it assumes that I am able to boot from CD-RW drive.

I have been using a ARM device with 512MB ram and flash to send messages via Bluetooth to everyone in the proximity. I am doing this with OpenProximity (Python) and it worked for the last week, it did stop for two times but since I didn't have time to find the cause, I just rebooted it (Windows style ) and it worked again, but suddenly it stopped working again last Saturday. When I did /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart it did not say it failed or something, but when I did /etc/init.d/bluetooth status it said "bluetooth is not running ... failed!". This is what I got in the syslog:
Code:
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Bluetooth daemon 4.60
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Starting SDP server
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Starting experimental netlink support
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Failed to find Bluetooth netlink family
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Failed to init netlink plugin
Apr 27 13:52:45 debian bluetoothd[31243]: Can't create GN bridge
[Code]...
You'll probably note that the first message is version 4.60 and the second one 4.63, this is because I tried to upgrade, but that did not work completely, but the error above is the same as first before the upgrade.
Don't know if it matters, but I am using Debian Squeeze and the output of uname -a is: Linux debian 2.6.32.2 #1 PREEMPT Fri Dec 18 22:54:28 MST 2009 armv5tel GNU/Linux. Hope someone know how this could happen suddenly, and even better, knows how to fix it
EDIT: Forgot to say, I am using a SENA Parani UD100 Bluetooth USB Adapter which uses the Toshiba Bluetooth stack.
UPDATE: It won't crash until the Bluetooth stick is inserted, so it should be a driver problem?

i have recently started my masters degree program and i have to install fedora 11 for one of my courses. The problem is when i try to install fedora 11 on my laptop, it wipes out my windows vista installation. I want to keep vista. I have a sony vaio laptop model VGN-FW340D. 4GB RAM and 400 GB HD. i first shrink my hard drive to free up around 100 GB. Then i run fedora 11 DVD and let it make the partitions on my free space.. I have tried everything.. I chose use free space the first time, but i didnt work, it wiped out my vista, next time i chose custom layout and defined boot, root and swap partitions , but again it wiped out my vista.. I have read many guides to dual boot vista and fedora and have carried them out step by step, but nothing works.... Also i dont have vista installation DVD, i just have the recovery CDs, so everytime it wipes out my vista, i have to do system recovery, ive been trying for a week now, and its driving me crazy, i asked a friend of mine to help me out, he has dual boot system, and he tried it and it did the same thing, wiped out my vista... i just have one drive C: with two partitions, one small partitions which contains recovery files, and the rest of the partition has vista.......

I have my desktop with following hardware:
1. MB: ASUS P5QL SE/EPU
2. RAM: 2 x 2GB Corsair PC2-8500 (1066 MGhz)
3. CPU: Intel Dual-Core E6500
4. GPU: nVidia GeForce 9400 GT with binary driver
5. Net: D-Link DWA-520 with madwifi driver
This machine is running for more than two years without any problem, but during the last 2 or 3 months I get deadlock hangs once or twice a week. This machine runs Slackware-current 32 bit with custom compiled vanilla kernel with two additional patches - BFS and TuxOnIce. Deadlocks usually occur when there is no user activity - only rtorrent is running and two KDE4 sessions is open (with firefox, okular, claws-mail, goldendict, virtualbox and other memory consuming apps).
Here is an excerpt from my syslog:
Quote:
I just would like to get a clue - what should I replace first - a memory or a CPU? The price is almost the same - around hundred of bucks. I tried to run memtest86 3.5a and got 1983 memory errors, but I had several problems with false positive errors with earlier versions of memtest86 and I don't trust it on 100%. My idea is to update BIOS firmware, update to the new kernel (I'm waiting for 2.6.37) and only then replace a RAM.

I just wanted to take a few minutes to report on my usage of the latest version of the OS.
This is what I'm working with:
Intel Celeron 3Ghz
4MB DDR2 RAM @ 800Mhz
80GB hard drive for Linux
500GB hard drive for XP Media Center and Mandriva Powerpack 2010
Sony Dual Layer 16x DVD-RW
nVidia GeForce 7900GS Graphics
Install was smooth. Once installed, I was able to add the Fluendo codecs for MP3 playback. It detected my iPod Touch right away, and even detect my USB Wireless Adapter without the need to use ndiswrapper. I connected to college Wi-Fi network without problems.
There are updates pending on my installation (yeah, after one week there are updates already....) but I'm gonna hold out till later. So far, the system works. I like it.
The only drawback I see right now is that video playback is not good with Chrome....browsing is faster, but streaming is choppy at times. I use Firefox for video. I think this is due to my hardware; I'm planning on building a better system on winter break....

After a reinstall of 10.10, I am able to turn on file sharing and so I set up a shared folder.
Windows Vista can see this folder but in my network place, there is only one icon, and it's a "Windows Network" icon. Upon clicking on that, I can see the local network, "Rompus Room".
When I click on Rompus Room, nothing happens for a while, then I get a message saying, "Opening "ROMPUS ROOM". Then I get the final message, "Unable to mount location", followed by, "Failed to retieve share list from server"

Dell Inspiron 9400 that came with Vista installed. With it's half MEG of RAM, almost unusable! MUCH quicker with XP but.....
So the plan was to upgrade to XP, The point of this post is user experience and usability.
The machine has XP installed and will go on the Interweb and has the right video and audio drivers installed. That bit only took about three hours to download and install.
What I CAN'T get working is the Effing Broadcom WIRELESS card/connection.

So I've made the migration over to Ubuntu for a long term purpose. I am a business owner and still am required to run certain software (Quickbooks for example) that will not function with wine. I know that there are alternatives within the free community, but the time and money factor don't make it fesable to retain everyone and reenter all the data. So I want to install a VM running a copy of Windows Vista, I've already got VM properly installed. But here is the issue, I have several product keys from Microsoft for Vista, but I am lacking the discs. Is it possible to install Vista via an ISO or something?
