Newbie to the Linux/Ubuntu world. I thought that installing Ubuntu would solve all my problems with an inherited PC. It has worked well for a couple of months but I am seeing an issue with firefox closing on its own and when trying to restart PC it shows i/o errors. Maybe power supply? Cooling fan? Anything else?

trl-q closing firefox being next to ctrl-w closing tab shortcut is one of the most annoying things firefox4. Had a look on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...firefox+ctrl-q but it does not really work with firefox from what I tried. Any clues that do not involve installing a plugin? Even a warning that you are about to close multiple tabs would be ok for me. Disabling completely would be ideal.

View 10 Replies View Relatedmy brand new Squeeze system, I cannot stop the Iceweasel. It just keeps going and going and going ... Specifically, after closing the browser a firefox-bin or xulrunner-stub process (never both) keeps running and consumes an entire CPU (according to top). To make matters worse, Mozilla does not accept responsibility for the problem. Instead it blames extensions, Java applets, plugins, etc.. They blame everyone but themselves. To see that the bug is in "Firefox/Iceweasel," run:
cd $HOME
mv .mozilla/ .mozilla-bkp/
/usr/lib/iceweasel/firefox-bin
Then shut the browser. The process must be terminated manually.
kill $(ps -A | grep -E "xulrunner-stub|firefox-bin" | awk '{print $1}')

WHat is it, and how do I correct it. I can't find a setting for SSL or anything that might be turned off in firefox, so I guess it's an UBUNTU thing?

As you can clearly see things look like crap. Any way to make things less crappy?
Sometimes, in Firefox, after looking a video and closing the corresponding tab, a still picture of the video appears in other tabs, even in some other applications than Firefox (e.g. Terminal). I've installed the nvidia drivers on Fedora 14. They seem to work properly.

On Xubuntu Lucid, How do I kill Xfce's desktop (xfdesktop) without it restarting almost immediately? Right now, when I kill it (using built-in kill; /bin/kill; pkill) it restarts. I don't want that. Xfce seems to no longer have the option to choose if I want a desktop or not.

Everytime manually I am opening gui mode for network as system-config-network and then checking activate when system starts option manually. After then if I restart, it is getting ip address. without doing like this, cant we do something like ifdown eth0, ifupeth0 like this so that without restart it takes ip address? Is there any command like this do get ip without restart?

I just finished a fresh install of Lucid netbook remix on my new Sony Vaio netbook. Everything seemed to go fine until a restart was required after installation was complete, when the monitor went black and the netbook just hung. The only way I could restart was to manually power off and on again. The installation seems to have completed fine and everything works after boot up. However, the netbook continues to freeze if I select restart from the power options. I know its not critical, but it is annoying. Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter upgrading to 10.04 I've had to run /etc/init.d networking restart to get my internet connection to work after startup on my desktop computer. Any ideas on how to find out what's wrong and how to fix it? I didn't uprage my laptop yet and it still works just fine so I'm thinking this is related to the upgrade. Softwarewise the only relevant networking related difference between my desktop and laptop is the ubuntu version and that I have openvpn set up on the desktop for work related stuff.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have upgraded a friends notebook from 10.04 to 10.10. Everything was fine with 10.04.The upgrade process runed smoothly but after booting 10.10 the X system randomly restarts. It seems to not be able to run for more than 10 minutes without X abruptly restarting and the login page being presented. I still couldn't even identify some pattern nor relate the restarts with some specific software.I've looked in /var/log/messages but there is nothing registered there that seems to be related to this issue.Despite being an old notebook, I don't think it's hardware related because the problem appeared for the first time after Ubuntu upgrade and it keeps repeating itself after that.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI dual boot my ubuntu 10.04 with my windows 7, I had 4 partitions on my machine, 2 ntfs and 2 ext4 partitions. But I noticed I still had an unallocated 10gb on my hdd, I couldn't see this unallocated space from ubuntu, fdisk, gparted etc. So I used diskmgmt in windows to create the 10gb ntfs partition, when I restarted I couldn't boot into either windows or ubuntu. I used my livecd to reinstall grub and everything was fine until I booted into windows 7 and restarted. Again my grub has been messed up.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI just installed the newest version of ubuntu on my Alienware desktop. It installed fine and I was running everything perfectly. Then I restarted the computer, just to test that out, and now it won't let me get back in.
It takes me to a screen which asks me to select the OS. I select "Ubuntu with Linux 2.6.35-23-generic-pae", but then it goes to a black screen with the blinking cursor, and nothing happens (even after waiting >10 minutes)
I'm booting off of the internal hard drive, since that is where I installed Ubuntu initially.
I have Xubuntu 10.10 installed on my PC. On language bar in panel I have installed 2 languages - English and Slovak. But always after restart, only default language remains - Slovak. Also Num Lock is default turned off after restarting. Can anybody help me with this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to run a sudo script on startup. Is it possible to run it without typing in a password?
The script is simply "sudo killall gcin". This restarts the Chinese input method gcin. My understanding is that gcin has a bug, doesn't load properly upon startup, and only behaves correctly after a reset.
Thus, I would like to have a script that executes the command "sudo killall gcin" upon startup without my typing in a password. Or even better, an easier workaround for gcin.
I got a prompt for an update so I went thru with it. I restarted my PC but it wont boot up. I keep getting a black terminal screen which asks me for my log in. But when I put it in, nothing happens. I tried to reinstall gdm but it says its already installed.

I do not know which is the right way/proper way to restart an X server. The Debian shows tells the following :- [url]
There is another one which I know of :-
Now does the wiki page have that obsolete bit of code or is that one much more better/preferred.
I recently did an install from CD of Kubuntu 8.10 on a system. When I first went to boot, my BIOS screen kept saying invalid system disc. Now, I have another HD in there but I thought for sure at the time that I had changed the boot drive appropriately. So, I went ahead and re-installed grub using the instructions from this site. Went and switched the boot drive to the correct one (it wasn't correct after the re-install of Grub which is why it was probably set wrong before) and now the system just keeps rebooting. It gets past BIOS and then black screen and post beep. I don't see a grub screen or anything resembling linux. I'd rather not re-install the whole OS again.
View 11 Replies View Relatedin Ubuntu 10.04 I have updated my system with command: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and I see new kernel was installed. Now restart is required. I don't like to restart this computer, because it should be up and running as much time as possible. Is there any way I could only re-run some kind of kernel module or something like that instead of restarting whole computer?
