CentOS 5 :: Selinux Alert After Upgrade?

Jun 30, 2009

I have a selinux alert every time I print to cups_pdf after upgrading to Centos 5.3 from 5.2. This never happened before. This is the alert I get

SELinux is preventing sh (cups_pdf_t) "search" to ./sbin (sbin_t)

Ubuntu / Apple :: How To Disable Lucid Upgrade

May 22, 2010

I've just installed Kubuntu 9.10 on a friends powerbook g4 and it's running wonderfully. I don't want to upgrade to Lucid, I tried it and it ran not so good on this computer. How can I tell it to stop offering to upgrade to the next release? (I only want the automatic upgrade notification to appear for normal upgrades and not include Lucid, or have Lucid option to appear at all).

General :: Enabling Execute Disable Mode In Bios On Acer Aspire 5741(Ubuntu 10.10 Upgrade)

Jan 4, 2011

I can get into the BIOS just fine but cannot find anything such as NX or Exucute Disable mode( on or off) Does anyone have any ideas? I contacted Acer support and they may be able to help only if I pay for their support. AS of now I have Ubuntu 10.4 installed and upgraded to 10.10 but have black screen with message about (NX) or Execute Disable in bios. The message says---This CPU is family 6, model 37, and has NX capabilities but is unable to use these protective features because the BIOS is configured to disable the capability. Please enable this in your BIOS. I have windows 7 professional on one partition and Ubuntu on the other partition. I can still access Ubuntu 10.4. but have the black screen on 10.10

Ubuntu :: Alert! /dev/sda/uuid Does Not Exist On 9.10

Apr 27, 2010

I would get the message that the uuid file does not exist. I've been online looking for fixes since yesterday morning and nothing has helped at all. I've read online that I should run fdisk -l to obtain info to share with others, but that command doesn't work in any command prompt I open. I am running Ubuntu 9.10 with the latest patches and I'm sure you guys know that it runs Grub2 loader...if that helps at all.

Ubuntu Security :: Malware Alert In Chromium?

May 20, 2010

I was on funnyjunk.com yesterday, looking at funny pictures. I clicked the next button, and a page popped up displaying that the website had malware hosted by hit.d1.net, however when I had Windows XP the MacAffee Siteadvisor Displayed that there was no malware. Is this Real or Fake? Just wondering if it is one of those fake spyware alerts, like from windows.

Ubuntu :: Alert /dev/disk/by-uu... Doesn't Exist?

Apr 30, 2011

long story, I upgraded my system from maverick to natty, didn't like it so restored my system with a backup that I had done recently. after it rebooted I used gparted live CD to expand my partition, moving swap to the end of the HD, then when I rebooted grub didn't work so I booted with ubuntu live cd and reinstalled grub. then I booted normally but nautilus didn't work and had lots of problems. So I installed ubuntu again with ubuntu live cd, formating the partition and expanding it, no problems at all.But, I wanted my files back, so restored the system again, now the message that I get isQuote:

Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
-Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
-Check rootdelay= (did the system wait for the right device?)

Ubuntu :: Thunderbird Elmail Alert Sound?

Jun 19, 2011

I have learned a bunch about Ubuntu in the last few days but I am stuck now. I can't get a wav file I selected for new mail to play in fact the default one either. My sound is fine otherwise. Other files play OK. I have googled and wore my fingers up to the knuckle and still haven't found a clear solution. One poster even said Ubuntu does not allow a file other than the system ones. I can't accept that. If it wasn't possible why is the option there to select your own wav file?

Ubuntu Installation :: 9.10 Server - Alert Message After Reboot

Jan 5, 2010

At first I tried the using the CDROM to install the server but around 8% through it could not talk to the CDROM anymore. I did attempt this a few times including re-seat the CDROM and it stopped at the same point every time. I then used the Mini install and that worked. However, after I rebooted I received the this error.

Gave up waiting for root Common problems:
Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
Check rootdelay
Check root

ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/bfaafj88-83ce-4dd2-8c6f-26o9a869eaea does not exists Dropping into shell:
(initranfs)

I then reboot from this point by issuing the reboot command and can then go into the rescue login with networking. I did select reconfigure GRUB and rebooted but same error as above.

System is an old Dell Poweredge 1550
Ubuntu = 9.10 server

Ubuntu :: Audio Message Alert Broken In AMSN 0.98.2?

Mar 1, 2010

Ever since installing aMSN 0.98.2 I have not been getting the normal audio notification of incoming messages although that feature is enabled in the program. Actually, I do get an audio alert for the very first incoming message but after that, nothing. Other audio alerts, such as when someone signs in or out, do work fine. I am using Ubuntu 9.04. The Windows version of that release works fine and that's what I've been using in recent weeks but I hate going to Windows for my IM.

After I restart snort and I tied 2 pc by cross cable (192.168.1.20 for windows and the victim is 192.168.1.21 for Linux where the snort is installed), my HOME_NET 192.168.1.21 and the EXTEREL_NET !$HOME_NET. The problem is when I run:

Ubuntu :: Alert /dev/sdh1 Does Not Exist. Dropping To A Shell?

Jun 17, 2010

I have a 64 bit ubuntu 9.10 / 64 bit windows 7 dual boot setup, each installed on different drives.Everything worked fine for weeks, but after booting into windows for maybe the third time, when I tried to boot back into ubuntu, the splash screen and xwindows failed to start, dropping me to a terminal to log in.After rebooting a few more times to see if i could wish the problem away, some kind of fix/recovery screen came up and gave me the chance to try to update/repair installed packages, which I took.Now, when I boot, I get:

ata_id[428]:HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed for '/dev/.tmp-block-8:80'
ata_id[427]:HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed for '/dev/.tmp-block-8:64'

Ubuntu :: Getting Irssi To Play An Alert Sound Of Some Sort When Nick Is Highlighted

Jan 24, 2010

After nhandlers IRC session on ubuntu user days, I got inspired to check out irssi. One thing that I am having trouble with is getting irssi to play an alert sound of some sort when my nick is highlighted. I've tried this:

"/set beep_when_window_active ON"
"/set beep_when_away ON"
"/set beep_msg_level MSGS NOTICES DCC DCCMSGS HILIGHT"
"/set bell_beeps ON"

So I believe that I should get some kind of beep sound but I'm not. I'm running irssi on byobu and using Karmic Koala. Please, I welcome all of your advice about irssi even if it is not "on topic"

Ubuntu :: Remove/shut Off Adobe Tracker Alert Panel Applet?

Anybody out there have a tip on how to remove or shut off the Adobe Tracker Alert applet from a panel short of removing acroread altogether?? I'm using the latest version of acroread (ver. 9.3.4-1lucid1) from the repos. Have run it for a week or so and got a pop-up re an update. I (stupidly) approved the upgrade and the tracker immediately appeared. There is no intuitive way in which to shut it off.
