View 1 Replies View RelatedTonight I installed ubuntu 10.10 (32 bit) on an external usb harddrive with a dvd I burned and I used my older desktop. I disconnected all internal and external drives first so everything had to be put on the usb drive I selected (only option available). I used the option to load extra software, use the entire hard drive, and let the software do it's thing. I basically had no options where to put things and it didn't have much choice.
When I boot the usb drive on my laptop (win 7 64 bit) by telling the bios to boot to it first... I get an error: modprobe: FATAL Could not load /lib/modules 2.6.35-22 generic modules No such file or directory. This message appears twice and then it does boot into ubuntu and seems to work fine. I'm new to this OS so that is an uneducated guess but the things I have done seem to be working. So exactly what is this error referring too? Is there a way to fix the problem or do I just ignore it.
I have logged in today and update manager reminds me of an update with linx-backports-module-2.6.31-14-generic. However my current kernel has been updated a while ago and is now 2.6.31-17. That obviously is more recent that that backport version. What should i do? By the way that update is from a PPA repository other that the default. I am wondering the update manager has no way to tell which kernel version i have at all? Should i actually go ahead with the installation?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI downloaded the x86 server version for Lucid twice today. Both times before burn the md5 match those published on the Ubuntu site. I am attempting to install the system on a Dell poweredge 2500. 2x 1.4 gb P4 procs, 1 gb ram, 750 GB HDD (raid) Boot to installer. it goes through the standard language checks, keyboard, checks for cdrom, then attempts to start copying files.
It gets to 17% copy on fs-core-modules-2.6.32.21-generic-di and hangs there for 5 minutes or so. Then comes back with the error that it could not get the file and asks if I want to retry. all retries lead back to this error. As I said, MD5 is exact, burner does not complain of a bad burn, and disk is closed at the end of the burn. so, has anyone else been able to install Lucid server x86? burned four disks today, one pair on two different burners. All fail at 17% retrieving that file.
Backports are not only drivers? And why backports are disabled by default?
Also: What are debug backports, and may I install them - will they work?
I did the following command while I had my partition mounted and was not able to restart until i pulled the power. sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.32-21-generic. Everything seems to be working okay now but before I start getting into 10.04 i wanna make sure i just didn't screw anything up.
View 3 Replies View RelatedUpdate manager popped up today and I actually had some time to look through the updates. In the recommended updates section it lists "linus-image-2.6.31-20-generic (New install)." In the description is says "You likely do not want to install this package directly. Instead, install the linux-generic meta-package, which will ensure that upgrades work correctly, and that supporting packages are also installed."
I have read 2 different threads that talk a little about this message but I am still unclear on what it is trying to tell me. What does it mean when it says to "Instead, install the linux-generic meta-package"
There is a bug in the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10. I have repeated it three times. During the "installing the upgrades" section, the upgrade always stops or freezes in the same place. The Terminal message stops at "Configuring linux-image-2.6.31-21-generic". "update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-21-generic". I have a new DELL laptop computer that came with Ubuntu 9.04 pre-installed. I am using the Update Manager and have previously updated all files for 9.04 before clicking on upgrading to 9.10.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install VMWare server on my Kubuntu box and it's telling me there are 3 "kernel modules" that it needs me to remove (apparently they were installed previously and VMWare isn't liking that).How do I remove them? Never messed with the kernel modules before.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI was wondering how can I determine among the modules loaded at boot which of them are really necessary and which are not, in order to reduce the boot process time and have a more "elegant" system start.

I have installed openSUSE 11.4 from live DVD.. The Installation screens appeared to display properly in my TV. However , post installation , the display is completely gone , there are only horizontal stripes displayed. Then I rebooted to Failsafe mode and I was able to see a workable screen ...The problem again is that the fonts are too small and not at all legible. I am able to see that SUSE has identified the Nvidia Driver and identified the TV and the resolution.. But I want to change it to a more bigger resolution..
I thought I could remove "nouveau" and set the display to "Xvesa"...How do I do that?? On terminal I am trying to kill the nouveau processes and giving rmmod nouveau , but not successful. How do I cahnge to a better resolution? Maybe 1280*1084 or 1280*768?

I've been trying to load my pcmcia network card driver "xirc2ps_cs" at startup with no success. I have added "modprobe xirc2ps_cs" to the rc.modules file but it doesn't load at startup. Curiously, though, if I execute rc.modules AFTER the machine has booted it will load the modules just fine. Just not during the boot up process. Thinking that hotstart might have been causing problems I've disabled hotstart (chmod -x) temporarilly to remove it from the picture, but there was no change.

we have done a minimall install of centOS. We don't use software RAID, and after doing a "lsmod" we see a lot of modules loaded we dont need.
So I tried to remove the DMRAID because we don't need it. I'have added the dm_mirror, and dm_raid45 to both /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:

I would like to try to upgrade to kde 4.5 from the backport repositories, but I would like to know two things first:
1) how can I revert to 4.4 if things fail (there have been some errors been reported at the ppa launchpad)?
2) will there be problems with upgrading to 10.10 when I use the backport repositories?
Just wondering if anyone is using the Maverick kernel backport with Lucid? Just wanting to know how stable it is.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm running Debian Lenny. I'm not pleased with kde4 so I'm going to be staying with Lenny. But I'm really looking to upgrade the old Openoffice 2.4 to 3.x. I've got the backports entry in my apt sources.list file. And I have downloaded the packages list. I'm just wondering if anyone else has installed the OO.o from backports? Does it work good and does it futz up anything from the stable install?
On a side, does anyone know where to get an updated Kopete. The version in Lenny is old and won't connect to Yahoo chat anymore (I guess they changed the protocol again.
These are really the only two reasons I messed with KDE4 anyhow. Kopete isn't a big deal because i can always use Yahoo messenger online anyhow, but really want to see how OO.o 3.x works.
Should I include lucid-proposed and lucid-backports in my updates?

If I install (say) Iceweasel from Lenny Backports, do I need to un-install the standard Lenny Iceweasel first, or will the new one overwrite/upgrade the old one? And- I understand pinning I think, but nobody explains what the * in the line:Package: * means. Does it mean all packages installed from the release specified in the line Pin: release a=lenny-backportsor do I need to specify each package in it's own entry (in /etc/apt/preferences)?
