Ubuntu Installation :: Error On Boot "Read Error After Changing Motherboard Battery
Dec 2, 2010I changed my motherboard battery last night, and now get "Read Error" on booting to Ubuntu, on dual boot system. This is the most frustrating thing in an otherwise great operating system. It is the second time I have encountered this issue (last time was a change of power supply). I fixed it last time after three days of re-loading Grub2 and playing around Grub 2 updates, etc. Fixed it eventually, but as usual, no idea of what eventuality fixed it. I think I found a web page buried deep in the 'net, which talked about device.map. Do you think I can find it again - not yet - day 2 searching for the answer... This is what the grub script tells us:

Mar 14, 2010I'm trying to make my BURG boot loader look better, right now it has the Ubuntu and Windows icons, but for name it has things like "untu 2.6" because the name won't fit. I am trying to change them simply to "Ubuntu" and "Windows 7", but I'm having some trouble. Using this guide, I am able to change the entries for GRUB2,but it has no effect on my BURG entries. Even if it was just removing the names all together, and just having the icons, that would be fine.

Apr 29, 2010I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 today, and during installation, a box came up asking stuff about the name of the network and things like that. I'm on school internet, so it came up as the name, so I just let it be the default. Well, it turns out, this was for the computer name.I was wondering if there was any way I can change the computer name after installation?f I'm not being clear, here's what it says at the terminal:Code:zac@dhcp-presidents-87:~$The dhcp-presidents-87 is what I want changed. I want it to be my name "Zac", and not the network name.

May 14, 2010I just have a simple question. When I installed Lucid a few weeks ago, I didnt feel very inspired, and thus left the host name at default. I just changed the hostname today, and I discovered that I can no longer resolve the host for ssh connections to the computer. When I changed the hostname files, I followed this guide: [URL].. Is there a file that I need to change regarding SSH that has a hostname in it?

Ubuntu :: Changing Log-in Wallpaper In 10.04?
Jul 25, 2011I just wrote a little script to help anyone out if they want to do this. Just download loginWallpaper.sh open your terminal and cd to the download directory run
Code:
sudo chmod 744 loginWallpaper
then run
Code:
./loginWallpaper.sh
and follow the prompts Make sure the pic you want to use is a .JPG and is in your home directory. Choose Option 1 on your first run. It will move the pic to the proper directory on the system and will open the Gnome Appearance Preferences at the log-in screen. After you run Option 1 logout, goto Background then Add button. Select your wallpaper and "BOOM" it changes. Log back in and run the script again
Code:
./loginWallpaper.sh
only use Option 2 to keep the Gnome Appearance Preferences from opening again.

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Changing Ramdisk Size For 9.10?
Feb 17, 2010Wine is one of the coolest things I've ever seen, but unfortunately it's still not enough to suit my needs as version 1.38 can't install any of the .NET libraries.
I'm trying to boot windows 7 on virtual box, but it seems to demand quite a bit of memory. The "recommended" amount is 512MB, and upon checking my kernel only has 488MB total ram with not much room to spare:
Code:
billy@billy-desktop:~$ free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 488 462 25 0 53 193
-/+ buffers/cache: 216 271
Swap: 1939 17 1921
I've tried giving the virtual machine memory sizes in the area of 192-256MB, but that's way too much and the system locks up and aborts from it. Memory sizes in the area of 128MB is just too small and it throws an error that there just isn't enough ram to boot. So the only thing I can do to make this work is to increase the size of the ramdisk for my host OS so I can give more to the virtual machine (not to mention things like flash animations are horribly slow and I'd like to see them get more fluid).
I see that I have 16 ramdisks available to me:
Code:
billy@billy-desktop:~$ ls -l /dev/ram*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 0 2010-02-17 09:54 /dev/ram0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 1 2010-02-17 09:54 /dev/ram1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 10 2010-02-17 09:54 /dev/ram10
[Code]....
I looked at some guides here and there, but apparently my setup isn't quite the same. I don't have a menu.lst file in boot/grub, and I don't have a grub.conf file anywhere. So I don't know what file I'm supposed to edit for this.
