I tried to uninstall firefox, which is what got me in this mess in the first place, the log claims it will remove ~240 mb but failes on a "E: Write error - write (28 No space left on device)" [URL] If I could juggle something onto an external hard drive so I can uninstall firefox I would be out of the wood. Failing that I believe a new install is in order.
After installing 10.10 I was asked to do a partial upgrade. During this upgrade several packages relating to the U1 service were removed.
I now do not have the U1 client, nor the Music Store service in Rhythmbox.
I was running Ubuntu 10.04 and yesterday I decided to test drive the 10.10 beta. After updating to 10.10 and rebooting, all I now get is the login screen with all the icons displaying as an 'X' and more importantly, no actual login prompt. I know just enough about Ubuntu to properly break it, but I am at a loss as to how to fix this, since it doesn't give me the option of opening a terminal.
View 3 Replies View RelatedToday I upgraded my Lucid to Maverick. After upgrading, from "update-manager -d", I tried a couple of new programs (games, actually) and re-enabled the third party repositories. I don't have exotic things, just google chrome, transmission beta, and some more of this sort. After rebooting, the system enters in terminal instead of the regular gui. I tried to search online for possible solutions, but none worked. I tried
(1) startx
output: fatal server error, no screen found.
(2) sudo service gdm stop; sudo service gdm start
Output: gdm start/running process 1265
(3) removing the option nomodeset from the boot. To do this I edited /etc/default/grub, the line with the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX and ran grub-mkconfig. After a reboot, the computer returned to the terminal.
(4) some even suggested removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but I don't have that file...
I have an acer timeline with initial hardware. I don't know which graphics card it has, if any... I really need to get my computer running, and I was looking for suggestions before reinstalling 10.04.
Box specs below. Compiz (effects) won't work. fglrx, proprietary drivers, uninstall, reinstall, software center, synaptic, drivers not working - effects can't be enabled. Is this a bug?

I have installed a Maverick machine and was utterly annoyed by the removal of XDCMP chooser in GDM (why in the world one would do this?!). The common wisdom seemed to install xdm or wdm instead.
I did try both of them (dpkg-reconfigure gdm and select xdm or wdm), BUT none is working. The only relevant point I found in xdm log: it fails to start X correctly, where spawned X instance claims that no usable screens can be found.
At the same time, gdm starts just fine.
Was anyone successful in getting any of these running?
I have just installed Ubuntu 10.10 and it does not mount usb sticks. Simply nothing happens when i connect a flash disk. Through "disk utility", i can see the device, and it is named /dev/sdb1. When i click "mount", however, it says:Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is already mounted on /mount failedIs there a solution to this problem?

View 2 Replies View RelatedSo I upgraded to Natty, didn't like it and decided to go back to Maverick. Got out my trusty Live CD and reinstalled, no problem. Unfortunately now it just takes me to the screen with the list of possible OSes to start, and when I press enter it says:
Code:
error: symbol not found: 'grub_os_area_addr'.
I don't appear to be able to do anything from there. I've had so much trouble with this blinking computer lately that I'm even considering going back to Windows.
How Do I Undo the Maverick Meerkat (Beta) Upgrade? Is that possible?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've heard that Compiz is not working in Maverick. Is this true? Has it impacted computers with decent graphics cards much, or is it no big deal? I'm kinda confused, because of the Ubiquity thing. Is that replacing compiz?
View 9 Replies View RelatedAbout an hour ago I completed the Network upgrade to Maverick from Lucid. Immediately I see some changes over Lucid: my computer can now hibernate successfully, a feature that worked in Hardy, but was broken in Karmic and Lucid. But a small annoyance is the strange colors. There is an abundance of purple colors in icons, in links, in indicators. I have attached a small snapshot of my browser. The circled purple area should be blue in normal contions.

Starting with my first shutdown after upgrading to maverick (as opposed to a fresh install, which is what I've done for every time I went to the new version before this), it just reboots the computer instead of shutting down.I've tried clicking the icon in the corner, I've tried pushing the power button and clicking shutdown on that screen, I've even tried shutting down from the command prompt, but each of these just reboots the computer.
View 1 Replies View Relatedalthough VLC playback triggers it, I suspect it's actually a kernel problem. After moving from 10.04 x64 to 10.10 x64, I've been noticing the following problem: When watching a DVD .iso using VLC Media Player, the system will become "jerky" and "stutter" after a random amount of smooth playback. At that point, the only way to make the system smooth and responsive again is a hard restart (normal shutdown hangs and refuses to complete).where I can start looking to find where the bug lies? My laptop is an Acer Aspire 6930 with 10.10 x64 and the current NVidia display driver.

Go to System> Administration> Synaptic Package Manager (you have to give your password) type " ibus-m17 " on search box. then just install the one appears. After installation the package, just close the synaptic. Now you are done to use Ibus.
Now go to System>Administration>Language Support (it may ask you to install the Language support, just click on the "Remind me later") Then select ' ibus ' from the "Keyboard input method system" under the Language tab.
Then close the window and restart the PC.
Thats the work I have done to get the iBus on Maverick Meerkat.
I'd like to upgrade my netbook from Lucid Netbook Edition to Maverick. However, in trying the live USB, I found Unity to be unusable. Is it possible to use Maverick and keep the interface from the Lucid Netbook Edition?
<rant>Unity is painfully slow and missing several essential features. Also, who in their right mind would make a sidebar that's reminiscent of the MacOS dock? Mixing launchers with icons for currently-open programs is brain dead.
I have machine, which has 7 hard drives. 5 connected to normal controller, and 2 connected to (still on-board) marvell controller. Till 3 days ago, it was running on jaunty (server kernel, 2.6.28-19-server). Then I upgraded the machine to Maverick, and this is when the problem started. When I boot from Maverick kernel (2.6.35-22-server) it doesn't see my drives attached to marvell controller.
Which is problematic, as I have /home and /usr on raid devices that are build on those drives. I do not know why it happens,
I did gather some evidence, though:
Output of dmesg on 2.6.28-19
Output of dmesg on 2.6.35-22
Output on lshw (on 2.6.28, as I can't run it on 2.6.35)
Output of lspci -v
Output of lsmod on 2.6.28
Output of lsmod on 2.6.35
If there is anything else that I should provide,
Am running Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat (did an in situ upgrade from Lucid) quite happily, except for the following issue I ran into:
I place a new cdr in drive
Open as folder
Copy mp3's onto it

In Synaptic>file>history I cannot see the updates that have been installed.The history log file is showed in /var/log,but if I am not wrong another versions showed updates in Synaptic.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to stay with release 10.10 (maverick) until the support expires. So how should I configure 'software sources' so that I don't get offered to upgrade to the next release (11.04?). When on 10.04, I had the 'show new distribution releases' set to 'Long term support releases only', but it didn't offer the upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 unless I changed it to 'Normal releases'. Should I now be setting it back to 'Long term support releases only' in order to stay with maverick? What would I miss out on if I do that?
View 9 Replies View Relatedmy Maverick cannot shut down completely. I have to use Alt-SysRq+REISUB in order to shut off the laptop using the Power button. It was NOT like this when running Lucid. Also, I have installed the animated splash/boot screen (cannot remember the name of this program off-hand) and the shutdown hangs happened after this.
I do NOT have problems restarting, suspending or even hibernating.

Is Ubuntu going to release a second version of Ubuntu 10.10 using Unity as well as keep the Maverick Meerkat version? I don't know about you, but I already hate the Unity version. It looks like the desktop at your ATM. This could be Ubuntu's Vista.
View 2 Replies View RelatedSince I upgraded to 10.10 my system keeps rebooting spontaniously.... Haven't been able to find anything wrong with the system, other than the reboots.
