Ubuntu :: Gparted Starts But Immediately Shuts Down Asus 1015 Running Meerkat?
Oct 17, 2010
I've installed 10.10 on my Asus 1015PE and when I went to look at the partition table I couldn't get Gparted to stay open. When I click on it, it opens the window, says that it is searching then scanning, then the window and program closes. The window is up for maybe 3 seconds tops.
I've got two other ubuntu netbook versions running on the same machine and gparted works fine on those installs. I've tried completely removing gparted and reinstalling, I've rebooted, I've tried calling it from the terminal, but always the same: it opens, starts to scan and closes.

When I launch the program it starts and then almost immediately trashes itself. I am not a power user so I don't know where to look to solve this problem. The account has been working since October so it's unlikely a provider problem.

After using Ubuntu 10.4 for months, my computer has started turning itself on without my pressing the on button. Sometimes it gets halfway through the boot process and shuts itself down. Sometimes it gets all the way to the desktop and a window pops up saying shutdown in 60 seconds however it never waits but shuts down immediately. Probably the second time this happened, I had time enough to get to the Power Manager and made sure it was set to 'never' power down. Currently the on/off cycling is happening so quickly I can't check the BIOS or grup. My only control is the master power switch on the back

I know that this is a know issue with nvidia cards and that is (of course) what I have. I have tried many of the fixes that I found on these forums. Some of them seemed to work but the problem has still remained (maybe its because i'm still too new)
I have been tempted to go back to windows but I cannot let this problem drive me away from ubuntu

I have this issue with Rhythmbox where if I tried to open it trhough Applications > Sound & Video, the program would start and close almost immediately.
I ran it in CLI & got:
Code:
rhythmbox
** (rhythmbox:3378): DEBUG: Loading the real store page
** (rhythmbox:3378): DEBUG: navigation requested to https://one.ubuntu.com/music/store-no-token
Segmentation fault
So what now, re-install through Synaptic?

These forums have been my bible ever since I switched from windows to ubuntu... especially because I was so scared that my laptop was always hot (if you know how to change the temperatures at which HP dv7 laptop fans start kicking the hell in- let me know!). 10.10 has improved this so I'm really really happy with this. Seriously love Ubuntu. Okay, enough for intros.

I want to run this after resuming from suspending. I've been successful in running the script on startup but couldn't do anything about resuming from suspending with these methods [URL] and every other in the forums. By the way, these commands enable Two-Finger Scrolling (doesn't work if you put both your fingers in an horizontal line or vertical).

She runs XP SP3 on her main drive, a 16 GB SD card.
She has available another 16 GB SD card, which shows up as a drive under �My Computer�.
I would like to install Ubuntu on the spare card, keeping Windows on the main drive card.

My home network is has a Netcomm NB5 ADSL modem with a D-Link DI-524 wireless router (WEP encryption). While I can access the internet using the Vista partition, on the Ubuntu partition, I cannot access anything. Further investigating the problem, I have noticed that there is something wrong with the DNS on the Ubuntu partition. Pinging the IP address of a website (such as linuxquestions.org) loads up, yet, when I type in the Domain Name, there is an endless wait. I have already deleted and re-entered the contents of the resolv.conf file as well as try to change the settings but to no avail.

I have GParted installed, running openSUSE 11.3 with GNOME. When running GParted, it always grayed out most file system actions, supporting only hfs fully. This made no sense, as I had all the required packages installed for other file system support. However, I recently figured out how to get it to work. Using the installed menu button doesn't work, running "gnomesu /usr/sbin/gparted" doesn't work; to get it to work, I have to open up a terminal, type "su -" to log in as root, and then run gparted. The menu button and gnomesu both prompt for a password, so it should be running as root, but launching it through the root terminal is the only way to actually get it to work. Is one root different from another?

If I let my computer sit for about 10 minutes, I lose all the windows I had open (gnome) and i get a message saying I'm running in low graphics mode. I have to restart X in low graphics mode to get it to work. i can't tell the difference, but as an avid writer, I often feel the need to get up and think about whatever I have open in oowriter.

I just installed Moonlight but except for the clock that starts running, buffering and connecting to the video server nothing else works.The screen stays grey and there is no sound. I thought it might work when I install Java applet, but also that doesn't fix.

I loaded Ubuntu Remix onto my Eee PC 1015PE. I tried to install Desktop switcher and it messed up. But now I log into it using the Gnome Session which gives me the better desktop.
However.
The sound works fine though my speakers but when I connect headphones.
The sound stops from the speakers but does not work on the headphones.

I have 3 Ubuntu installations & a PCLINUXOS, plus Windows XP installed on one hard disk. I still can boot to each one of them and can mount each one using Ubuntu.
The problem "may" have occurred when I reduced the size of some linux partitions using gparted. I still have plenty of space in each of those partitions.
When I started gparted all of the HD was unallocated. I did that from each ubuntu installation and the PCLINUX installation, plus LIVECDs. All indicated the space was unallocated.
When I did an fdisk -l from a Puppy Linux LiveCD I got a normal start and ends of each partition.
When I tried it from Ubuntu installation or live cd, I received the following types of responses:
Code:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda5
Disk /dev/sda5: 28.5 GB, 28566397440 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3473 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -u /dev/sda5
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 3473.There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Plus the Windows partition seems to go over its limits.
Since all of my OS installations are still working, I don't know how critical this is. From reading another post, I understand this might be able to be fixed by making some changes in fstab.

Sometime after I upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 I've been having trouble with my wireless network connection.It will usually log on to the network, then disconnect a shortly after. Then try to connect again, usually successfully, then it cuts off again. Then connects again, then disconnects. FWIW, ubuntu 9.10 works on a different machine pretty consistently, so I don't think its a problem with the router.

I've installed VMware server 2.x on my windows XP SP2 and installed Ubuntu 9.10 on the VMWare. I have noticed several times that the ubuntu machines shuts it down (not sure the time pattern but it could be that it shuts down after a certain minutes idle). As a result of that, I always have to restart it.
I checked the event log viewer, it looks like there's always a segfault just before it shuts down. I've pasted the last few lines of event log below.

I've been using Ubuntu on my desktop for a while and it worked like a charm. Three months ago, I decided to put a new cpu fan because the old one was gathering dust and I wanted to have lower cpu temps. I decided to buy an Scythe Kabuto, nd installed it with no problems. Windows XP works perfect, but the problems come when I try to start Ubuntu, both from a Live CD or from the HD. Ubuntu starts normally, but in a short period of time (2~15 minutes) the PC randomly shuts down. I've seen some errors when I restart and try to start Ubuntu again mentioning high CPU tempetatures. The fact is that the CPU temperature never reaches more than 65, so my guess is that there is some problems with the ACPI and temp reading.

Ubuntu shuts itself down and displays message that it is running low on graphics, giving me options to run in low graphics mode or to troubleshoot. I have been given the following advice but have no idea what to do:
You are using the open driver i915 as you are using an intel based video
chip.
Sounds like you need an xorg.conf file to define the display a little better as udev is not detecting. Here is a sample file you can start with: (Refers to a URL that led me to this forum)
You can ignore any sections and entrys regarding keyboards as udev is
pretty awesome at picking those up

I just had my laptop in the shop for a month or so now (through Staples warrenty) I sent it in because my LCD monitor wasn't lighting up after a bit of use.
Got it back and they said my issue could not be replicated, so they just cleaned it and such and gave it back. Well so far it's been going pretty good, monitor stays on except when i turn on Heroes of Newerth.
What kind of problem is this and is it easily fixable?
