Ubuntu :: 9.10 On A HP Pavillion 2000 Have Collapsed?
Mar 3, 2010
After having my Ubuntu 9.10 for more than 2 months and being so happy about it, it has suddenly collapsed. I do not know if collapse is the best word to describe it but it looks like but hopefully has not.
It happened like this: I switched off the computer before leaving for a 10 days trip and no problems. When I came back and switched on the computer but it was impossible to start. The screen first showed the following message:
Mount of file system failed.
A maintenance shell will now be started.
CONTROL D will terminate this shell and re-try.
root@pablo-laptop:~#
I force the laptop to switch off and switch it on again. It gave me options to initialize under different versions of Karmic Koala but none work. (It gave me the option of making a memory (or file system, I do not remember well) test which I did and says there was no problem). In all the cases it went back to the message above.
I tried Control + D but again nothing. It displayed a page of information of which I write a part of it:
[Code]....
To see all the info after Control + D you can see the attachement (althoug not too clear)
If you can not see well the picture and the info on it I can try to make it better or transcript it.

I just got an Hp Pavillion laptop, and I'm trying to install Ubuntu. I resized the Windows 7 partition, and tried to install, but was unable because you can have no more than 4 primary partitions. Is there any way around this?
The current partitions are:
Windows 7 ntfs file system
BOOT
RECOVERY
HP_TOOLS

I've had Ubuntu running standalone on a separate machine for a little while, and wanted to give dual-booting a try with my HP Pavillion DM4 laptop, which is relatively new and came shipped with Windows 7.
I got Ubuntu 10.10 installed fine, but upon restarting and selecting Windows 7 from the Grub boot menu, I get the Windows 7 splash screen, about a milisecond of some flavor of the "Blue Screen" (I can't read any of it because it goes away after less than a second), and then am informed that I need to repair my Win7 installation.
Used the Win7 repair CD, which does absolutely NOTHING- doesn't find my OS, partitions, or anything. If I select the "Automatically Repair..." option, I am informed that CHKDSK failed because a volume on the system is corrupt.

I have a HP Pavillion dv4 1313dx that has been running Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04 wonderfully, but I am getting nothing out of the microphone.
I am a VERY beginning user (All I really know how to do in terminal is copy/paste, cd, ls, and, chown) and if I can fix this easily, I'd love it.
I already know to check the sound preferences, and nothing is picked up on the microphone, but I think it's there.

I'm running dual boot, Windows 7 and Zorin. The Windows Wifi side works fine. The install for Zorin (including updates, programs I selected from the repos, etc) worked fine, but now I can't connect to the net.It recognizes my router (Belkin), recognizes other networks (neighbors, school), and it says I'm connected but anything to do with the net (firefox, chrome, synaptic, etc) won't connect.Checking lspci, I get:
pgirl@leslie-nest:~$ lspci -nn
00:00.0 RAM memory [0500]: nVidia Corporation MCP67 Memory Controller [10de:0547] (rev a2)
00:01.0 ISA bridge [0601]: nVidia Corporation MCP67 ISA Bridge [10de:0548] (rev a2)

I recently had sound 'working' as in I had to reload the alsa drivers each time I booted up my computer. After a year of giving up how to fix it, I looked it up again and was told to update my alsa drivers. I updated my drivers to version 1.0.23 and my sound was working but was still acting weird. For example, my sound would play a song, in Adobe Flash, at its highest volume even if the volume wasn't at max. I was just happy that I didn't have to reload the drivers, but this was another problem.Now, for some reason, sound just doesn't work. I've tried reloading the drivers several times and looked for a solution on these forums as well as on google. No luck. So I ask, is there anything I can do to get my sound to work?

Today i used the mini CD command-line install, got the system running at the terminal, but installing xorg or gnome and rebooting results again in fail. Tried to edit xorg.conf through nano, after sudo apt-get install but before reboot, but was fail again (couldn't open the file). I dont know exactly if its the gnome or the X the issue, because i tried at the same notebook the ubuntu 8.04, the wallpaper pops up but it freezes after, i cannot use the X. Both cd's are checksum valid originals from canonical
is there any ways to install gnome and x in the terminal, edit the xorg.conf with anything that solve the problem and reboot? update 23:11PM: I found it, its a issue with old intel graphic cards. i915.modeset=0 xforcevesa in the boot parameters and i could use the installer in the lucid live cd. but now i need to edit the grub to always boot with this parameter.

I installed karmic koala 9.10 via the wubi installer in a separate partition with windows 2000 being the original operating system. Now nothing boots. I use to get a 'missing ntldr' message but lately I just get a grub loading error: 'no such partition' then a 'grub rescue>' prompt and nothing else. I've tried the numerous help pages in order to see what is wrong but always get stuck when something they say to do doesn't work for me and then I don't know what to do next. I can run koala from the installation cd and can see the contents of both the linux and windows partitions. The grub folder is there too but I haven't been able to reinstall it. What I should be doing to get this drive to boot? I'm still at the stage that I require all the specifics details on *how* it should be done especially with command lines instructions.

I had to upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04 after 9.04 stopped being supported and now I can't run Quicken 2000 Basic in WINE anymore when it ran just fine under 9.04 using WINE When I try to install it from the CD ROM it gives me this error The file '/media/QWINMMR1F/install.exe' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied form an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run. For more details, read about the executable bit. So I copied all the files from the Quicken CD to my hard drive and installed it from that folder and it completed installation without any installation errors but when I run Quicken and try to open the qdata.qdf file Quicken gives me a "can't open file" error.
I then removed WINE and installed the latest BETA Version now I can install from the CD but still get the "can't open file" error from Quicken. It worked fine under 9.04 and WINE and I could update the info in Ubuntu and it would show up under Windows and if I'd update in Windows it would show up under Linux. Now in Ubuntu 10.04 it does not work.

I love foobar 2000 but I'm always trying to shy away from windows apps. What are your recommendations as "good" replacements for foobar 2000? So far I have tried:
Amarok - Crashes all the time, and keeps saying it can't play mp3s. Used to love this app, but seems broken for me now. Even if I reinstall it.
Rhythmbox - Great, but reports the wrong bitrate on all my songs. It is very important for me to know the correct bitrate for uploading to certain sites.
Audacious - Way to simple and winamp like.
Bangarang - No.

My Update Manager just came on and announced an update for Windows NT/2000 Terminal server. I am only running Ubuntu 10.04 on my system and have no Windows material. Why am I receiving this useless announcement? I have no desire to keep adding useless applications to my HD. Is there any way to delete this item from the Update Manager?

I installed office 2000 CD using wine, I did this on Ubuntu net-book remix on a NC10 using a networked CD drive. So the installation went okay, I then came to using the software, word opened and promoted me for my product key, which I entered correctly the window disappeared for a second then repaired, I entered the key again but then this caused the whole program to shut down, I have tried repairing it , reinstalling it all apart from uninstalling and reinstalling it. Which I have tried and subsequently failed
Right I got it to work, so for any looking for the solutions simply go to /home/(username)/.wine/system.reg and change the user name and the organisation either delete it or enter something, I entered my user name but I left the organisation blank but I left the quote marks that were there. Save it and the product code thingy should not appear again.

I've been told to setup a first ubuntu sw development pc in my office. Our network domain server is Windows 2000 Advanced. Are there any issues or limitations that would prevent this marriage? Will it be apparent when I crack open ubuntu? Maybe a link to this procedure? Is joining a workgroup equally simple?

I am having problems opening and printing word 97/2000 formatted documents that were saved using OpenOffice in Maverick. If I try to open one of these files in openOffice for Lucid, it causes OpenOffice to freeze every time. If I save the files in OpenOffice format and share them between Maverick and Lucid - everything works fine. Anyone know what might be causing OpenOffice in Lucid to freeze when loading word 97/2000 files?

We've just bought a new Lenovo ThinkPad T510 in the UK, which includes the Qualcomm Gobi 2000 3G broadband chip on a mini PCI card, attached to a WWAN antenna (around the screen?).
I've done a lot of searching, and was not able to find a way to get this chip to work in Ubuntu 9.10. Can anyone point me in the right direction or provide some help here?

I have been learning about P2P networks and have been experimenting with all kinds of operating systems. I figured out how to share and access Windows shared files on other Windows computers.
Now I'm trying to access Windows shared folders from Linux operating systems.
Here's the deal. I created a shared folder on Windows 2000 Professional. I want to open it from Kubuntu 10.04.
I am not running Virtualbox. These are separate operating systems on separate computers.

I have tried dual booting Ubuntu 9.10 and W2K two times and this has resulted in a blue screen of death in the Windows partition. I have subsequently had to wipe Linux and restore Windows using fdisk/ mbr.
The MBR was set to hd0, but should this be installed on the Linux or Windows partition to prevent this?
