Ubuntu :: Error : Unknown Timezones Are Treated As The 'floating' Local Timezone
Sep 28, 2010
On Karmic, every once in a while this error pops up near the notification area at the top right (also see attachment):
Timezone Errors See Error Console: Unknown timezones are treated as the 'floating' local timezone.
But the 'date' command shows the correct date/time and timezone. /etc/timezone is also set correctly. The machine is running ntpd and is connected to the net 24/7 via ethernet. I also don't see any 'timezone' errors in /var/log/* Which software is complaining? What is the "Error Console" it is referring to?

Over the last few months there have been multiple updates and I am getting a list of things that no longer work or that cause my system to fail. I can no longer open a pdf in firefox. It says there is no application assigned to the task. I ran evince and tried to open a pdf file and received a "floating point" error message on the terminal screen I was working from.

I put an SD card in a reader, got all the right signs from the kernel (SCSI device: sda; write-through; etc.)including its 2GB size.
When I try to mount /dev/sda1 I get 'floating point exception' as a response, and it won't mount.
I've never had that message returned from mount, and I can't find any reference to it.

I wouldn't call myself paranoid, but I do try to keep reasonably secure on my home network (WPA encryption, router firewall, etc.). I also occasionally use nmap to make sure I don't see any unknown computers logged into my network. The problem is I have five computers that all use DHCP on the network and they are not all up all of the time. At most, there are two to three online at any one time.
So, my question is: Do any of the IP addresses remain in the router's database for a computer that has gone offline (shutdown)?
The reason for my question is that today I ran nmap on my home network and noted an IP address that was not currently up on the network. It is, however, an address that is frequently assigned to one of the computers when it is online, but that address was not up at the time I ran nmap. Just trying to make sure my network is not being used by some nearby computer.

I want to find out my IP and I test this code from beej tutorial:
Code:
char hostname[128];
int i;
struct hostent *he;
struct in_addr **addr_list;
struct in_addr addr;
gethostname(hostname, sizeof hostname);
printf("My hostname: %s
", hostname);
he = gethostbyname(hostname);
if (he == NULL) { // do some error checking
herror("gethostbyname"); // herror(), NOT perror()
return 1;
} // print information about this host:
printf("Official name is: %s
", he->h_name);
printf("IP address: %s
", inet_ntoa(*(struct in_addr*)he->h_addr));
printf("All addresses: ");
addr_list = (struct in_addr **)he->h_addr_list;
for(i = 0; addr_list[i] != NULL; i++) {
printf("%s ", inet_ntoa(*addr_list[i]));
}
printf("
");
return 0;
But my output is this:
Code:
My hostname: vBx
gethostbyname: Unknown host
I heard that it works in windows, why isn't working in linux?

This is a transcript I get emailed at least once every day, usually about 3 to 10 a day recently.
Transcript of session follows.
SMTP server: errors from unknown[ip address]
<boring stuff snipped>
In: RCPT TO: <server@my domain>
Out: 550 5.1.1 <server@my domain>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table
Session aborted, reason: lost connection Now I cannot seem to find anything via Google, as when I put "server@" anywhere in the string, I just get web hosting or other kroomst. The emails usually come from legit places, usually hotels. Does this mean they are sending bad emails, i.e. they have a Trojan/worm, or is this a live hack attempt?. I believe the later, as I might get upto 3 domains from the one ip address, which is always, NOT associated with the listed domain. Not causing me any issues, except I have been getting a lot recently.

I would love to see if there is a way in linux that if I have forgotten the command name and would like the search the entire root using "find" command but I am not sure of the case sensative of the command name (eg. VBoxManager or vboxmanager). So how can I search the root with everything treated as lowercase first? or is there a regular expression to search?

I am new to Linux but have installed debian using the 'net method. The computer, in general, works fine. I have a USB keyboard which works OK and a Magnetic Stripe Reader which the OS thinks is another keyboard. If I open a terminal then swipe a credit card the data are transfered to the terminal screen at the cursor which I do not want.
How do I prevent the OS from grabbing the MSR? I want to use a program to address it as "/dev/hiddev0" or similar for read and write. I have tried "blacklist hiddev0" in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf but to no avail.Regarding these forums, I, for the life of me, cannot understand why a search for USB turns up empty when I can see the term in several titles on the first page of topics.

I have a question regarding how timezones are working.
Indeed, if I configure "TZ=BST", I get: sh-3.2$ date
Fri May 13 07:43:39 BST 2011
And when I configure "TZ=Europe/London", I get:
sh-3.2$ date
Fri May 13 08:43:20 BST 2011
There is no BST file in /usr/share/zoneinfo, so I am asking how it is managed for BST settings and why it is different from setting Europe/London.

I have a backup server that is a backup destination for 10 servers.
Unfortunately each of those servers is in a different time zone. When Rsyncing to this box, it misses some files because the timezones are different.

I am using the following to find the Day of the Week on my server which is in UTC.
Code:
But say if I want to find the Day of the Week in another timezone, how would one go about it. I had a look at date --help but could not find any timezone related switches so am not sure if this is possible using this method.
Update:
This appears to work but is this the only way?

I have been trying to figure out how to keep my company's email from being treated as junk mail by Hotmail, Yahoo & Gmail for over a year.
When I acquired the company its email was hosted by sina.com as its in China. It was being run under a windows server and had issues sending & receiving.
I moved it to a linux server system in Hong Kong that has a US co-host site in Chicago area thinking its got to better than whats running in China.
We are still having problems sending emails to hotmail, yahoo and gmail.
My entire company is about ready to redmond our company email and use their personal webmail accounts.

When i try to add value 150 on portflood section of csf,i get following error:
iptables: Unknown error 18446744073709551615 PORTFLOOD tcp opt -- in !lo out * 0.0.0.0/0 -> 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpt:80 state NEW recent: UPDATE seconds: 5 hit_count: 150 name: 80 side: source

how is limitation with ip_recent where highest value for hit_count is 20,and how i need to modify and recompile ip_recent.But i was not able find anything about either modify or recompiling that module.I have cent os 5.4 64 bit,iptables are installed over yum.Also i have 4 servers with completely identical configuration,yet on two servers portflood works while on other two it reporting that error.Maybe it was different install cd which caused this,but again i dont know why this doesnt work since iptables version are indetical.

I like the clock applet in my system tray. It's nice to pull it open and see the time in other locations.
However, because of bandwidth, I'd like for it to stop requesting weather updates.
Is there a way to prevent the weather from being requested while still showing the locations, and timezones on the clock map?

I was doing some testing which is required for some of my products
Here is the strange behaviour i observed
First i did set the timezone to PST 2010 (which is less than GMT basically negative timezone)
zdump -v /etc/localtime |grep 2010
/etc/localtime Sun Mar 14 09:59:59 2010 UTC = Sun Mar 14 01:59:59 2010 PST isdst=0 gmtoff=-28800
/etc/localtime Sun Mar 14 10:00:00 2010 UTC = Sun Mar 14 03:00:00 2010 PDT isdst=1 gmtoff=-25200
[Code]....
Note:in the above case when i did set time to 2:59:55 and said ok by then CEST became CET already. That could be the reason why DST is not happening.
I tried with few other positive and negative timezone configuration all the negative time zones resets back properly where as all the positive timezones doesn't
All my timezone files are up to date,i am using fedora 9

I have a dual boot system with ubuntu 9.10 x64 and Windows 7. Everything has been working fine for a a long time but yesterday I tried to delete an unused partition through the Disk Utility in ubuntu (System->Adminstration->Disk Utility) and everything was messed up. I used to get the "Grub error: Unknown filesystem". I managed to create an ubuntu bootable usb and followed some tutorials for fixing grub but all i managed to do is to get another error: "Grub error: No such disc". After some experimentation i got
"Grub stage 1.5" which gave me a grub> command prompt./dev/sda is the drive containing Windows and Ubuntu.
Code:
[ Boot Info Script 0.55 dated February 15th, 2010
============================= Boot Info Summary: ==============================
=> Grub 0.97 is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks on the same drive
in partition #6 for /boot/grub/stage2 and /boot/grub/menu.lst.

I've been trying to solve this problem for DAYS now, without any progress. I've searched the forums for a long time before even starting this thread. So now I need help, PLEASE. I don't want to have to use WINDOWS in order to sync my phone with my computer, that's crap and there has to be a way. I have Ubuntu 9.10 and I'm trying to sync my LG Versa VX960V07. When I plugged it in to begin with, it was set on Auto-Sync Music, and the phone showed that it was connecting to the computer. I set it on Data-Sync and nothing happened when I plugged it in. I set it to Ask on Plug-in, and again nothing happens, and the box on my phone that says "Sync Data; Sync Music" does not pop up like it does when using windows.
First I tried installing a bunch of different music programs, Songbird, Amarok, K3B, etc and none of them work with my phone. I can't even install the MTP add-on for songbird, it's not supported under linux. Then I tried sudo apt-get install mtp-tools, which worked. Then MTP-detect, which showed no device. I also tried the command for searching for drives attached. And it did not show a USB drive attached. My computer simply does not detect my phone.
Then I tried this:
[URL]
Installing BitPim, which does not support the LG Versa, but the new 1.0.7 testing branch does. So I followed the tutorial on that page, installing Alien and trying to convert the RPM to DEB. I don't even know what these commands mean, I'm not a linux Guru, but I'm learning. I tried everything and spent like 3 hours going through this tutorial to no avail. Is it suppose to create a .deb file where the RPM is? If so it doesn't work, and it won't launch BitPim for me. I have no idea what's going on. When I try:
sudo alien -ic ~/Downloads/bitpim-1.0.7.20090805-0.i386.rpm
I get:
error: incorrect format: unknown tag
dpkg --no-force-overwrite -i bitpim_1.0.7.20090805-1_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 175361 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace bitpim 1.0.7.20090805-1 (using bitpim_1.0.7.20090805-1_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement bitpim ...
Setting up bitpim (1.0.7.20090805-1) ...
The "error" I get, I don't know what it means, but either way, this isn't working. I'm getting so frustrated with this and the forums are my last hope before I install Windows again. I really don't want to admit defeat and use windblows.

I can play CDs and DVDs but when I try to burn a music CD I get:
error while burning
an unknown error occurred
when the CD is finalising. As data has been written to the CD, but not finalised, each time I try I use another CD.
I've used Brasero and whatever the default burner in 9.10 is with the same result. If I boot in Win7 I can burn CDs.

I have a laptop with windows7 and ubuntu installed. When I installed Ubuntu it created 4 partitions (2 for swap and 2 for ubuntu). Yesterday, a friend of mine deleted one of the partitions (swap+linux) because they weren't being used (weren't even mounted) and he thought I could use the free space. I kept on using the laptop but today I had to reboot it. Instead of getting the usual grub menu I got this:
Code:
error: unknown filesystem.
grub rescue>
I tried using the solutions I found in lots of posts related with this matter but I couldn't fix it. What I tried was this:
Code:
#show you the available partitions
ls
#look for boot files on the partitions
ls (hd0,1)/boot
[code]....
The problem is that it doesn't recognise the commands 'linux', 'boot' or 'initrd'...
