Ubuntu :: Synaptic Package Manager Not Working And No Wubildr.

Mar 30, 2010

Worst combination ever.. To fix "no wubildr" I have to use synaptic package manager. To use synaptic package manager I have to access recovery mode, which the "no wubildr" problem is not allowing me to. Is there anything else, than reinstalling ubuntu, I can do?

EDIT: the terminal is not working either.. Segmentation fault:/etc/sudoers is mode 0666, should be 0440. That is why I am unable to use the synaptic package manager.

Ubuntu Installation :: No Wubildr After Upgrade To 11.04

May 14, 2011

- I upgraded to 11.04 from 10.10. 10.10 had been a fresh install on a emachines 725 that was running Windows 7 - a dual boot. This was done in December 2010 and everything was working fine - until the upgrade.
- I booted after the upgrade and (very rapidly) there is an error "no wubilder" (or something like this) and then I get dumped to a selection of linux headers. If I select 2.6.35-28-generic then I can boot up and everything seems fine...

I cannot figure out how to get around this extremely clumsy boot procedure. I have checked numerous postings and I cannot determine the answer/guidance that I understand...I checked the C: drive on Windows and there is an updated wubildr but the wubildr.mbr is the old one from 10.10 (by the date on the file). Don't know if this matters or not.

Ubuntu Installation :: From XP To 11.04 - Wubildr.mbr File Is Missing

Aug 22, 2011

I was trying to install Ubuntu for long time and abandoned the idea a few times because of the same technical problem which seems to pop over and over again. ive been trying to install it after using an XP system or a Win 7 OP, and every time i faced the same Error again again- "wubildr.mbr file is missing". i installed it from a CD and tried the Wubi program too but both gave me the same error at the end. i have a decent PC with 2 hard drives, 1 of 500gbs and the other with 160gbs(which is used for the OP's). the goal was to install Ubuntu alone with no other operation systems in other partitions. Now i thought to use the Full Format of the Win XP which takes about half an hour or probably more and then installed the Ubuntu system, i got some different error which goes like this- "Windows rootsystem32hal.dll missing"

Ubuntu Installation :: Updated Last Night - Now My Mouse Won't Work / Fix That?

Apr 3, 2011

So last night, ubuntu popped up with some updates. It was like...56mb or so worth. So I downloaded them. Once they were done, my mouse stopped working. (trackpad on my netbook) I restarted using the keyboard a couple times, shut it off, pulled the battery...but the mouse won't work. I havent tried an external yet, but I hope it will work so I can fix the trackpad problem. So, I loaded into Windows to check the mouse there, and it works fine. Is it a simple fix? Or, is it not so simple?

Ubuntu Installation :: Evolution Mail Stopped Working?

Aug 11, 2010

Evolution e-mail has stopped working. Un-installed everything evolution using Synaptic and re-installed. No change: address book comes up but mail, calendar etc do not work. Clicking on any causes gray out and leads to a force quit. So how do I un-install evolution completely and then re-install as a completely fresh install. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.

Ubuntu Installation :: Dual Boot Stopped Working

Aug 17, 2010

I'm a huge fan of Linux (although still a noob) but require Windows for work. I have a laptop for work on which I was dual-booting XP and Ubuntu. After a few boots, XP will no longer start. Originally the notebook had a windows partition and a Dell Recovery partition. I used gparted to carve out a partition for Ubuntu from the windows space and I made a dedicated GRUB partition right in the front of the disk because my BIOS couldn't boot from LBAs.

Now, the computer boots into grub. From their I can either load the ubuntu kernel from its partition or I can chainload to the ubuntu partition which loads the local copy of grub. I even went so far as to make entries in the menu.lst files so that you can navigate back and forth between grub on the boot partition and grub on the ubuntu partition. On the boot partitions grub, I also made an entry to chainload windows from its partition. And then I edited the boot.ini in Windows to allow me to go back to the grub menu on the boot partition. (I need to create a bin image of the boot sector for that)

Anyway, I followed lots of instructions that I cobbled together from googling. Everything was working fine for a few days. Seemed I could move back and forth between "boot grub", "ubuntu grub", and windows bootloader. Both OS's were working fine. Then, somehow, XP stopped working. I tried using super grub disk, but this only gets me into Ubuntu. Basically, Grub sets the root to the appropriate partition, chainloads, and then thats it. Nothing. It's like theirs no IPL on the windows partition. But I used testdisk to check the partition and it has a valid bootsector. Also, I can still mount it in Ubuntu and look at my windows files. Seems like NTloader never starts but I don't get any error messages. After the grub commands echo, I get nothing.

I've also made a bootable USB key with Windows Revovery Console on it. I wanted to use it to fix the windows partition and make it bootable again. However, the recovery console never starts up. I get the blue screen of death and I think it's because it doesn't know what to make of the Ext formated partitions.

Ubuntu :: Compiz Stopped Working Entirely / Get A Clear Installation?

Apr 5, 2011

Compiz stopped working entirely recently and I've been trying to reinstall different version, nothing helped. Now when I look at synaptics, the version of the different package (compiz, ccsm, bcop...) are of different version (from 8.2 to 8.6). It tried reinstalling only from synaptics and it didn't change anything. I'm not sure that'll fix my problem, but for sure it doesn't help. Does anybody know what repos i should use to get a clear installation?

Ubuntu Installation :: XSane Stopped Working - No Device Detected

Mar 29, 2010

Recently xsane has stopped detecting my MFP (HP Deskjet F2280). My setup has not had any hardware changes and the only software changes in that time have been the periodic Synaptic updates. Before this hiccup all had been well for over a year. If I run xsane it thinks a while (10 sec?) and tells me in a little panel no devices were detected. If I run lsusb, it finds the device, but after all it is a printer/scanner and the printing function continues to be OK so this is not a surprise.

I do not know enough to understand all the lsusb output to know if anything is amiss in the detail. What is it that xsane needs so that it detects the device as a scanner? Is there a file or specific stuff in a file which I could get from an old backup or edit (carefully!) by hand? I don't need the scanning function often enough to pin down what might have done the mischief.

Ubuntu Installation :: Booting Windows XP (with Wubi) - Stopped Working

Oct 5, 2010

I had Ubuntu installed in Windows XP (with Wubi). One day my motherboard, let's just say stopped working. So, I had to replace my motherboard..., well I bought a new PC, but with the Hard Drive of the old one. When I first started it i got the same boot screen letting me choose between Ubuntu and Windows XP. Well, you can pretty much figure out that none of them worked. So, I installed Windows 7 (as the new configuration is pretty powerful). So, from the boot menu Windows XP was replaced by Windows 7 but still Ubuntu stays there and I can't figure out how to delete it.

Ubuntu Installation :: Firefox 3.6 'Namoroka' Stopped Working After Recent Update

Feb 25, 2010

Firefox 3.6 "Namoroka" stopped working after a recent update. Clicking on my panel launcher or the launcher in the applications menu does nothing. I even tried starting Firefox from the terminal and got an error message: "(firefox-bin:3592): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple times", whatever that means.I would be willing to rip out Firefox and start all over again but I don't know how to remove the 3.6 version. I couldn't find a method in the Software Center for doing that graphically.

Fedora Installation :: Eclipse Galileo Wizards Stopped Working In F12

Nov 18, 2009

I upgraded from F11 to F12 and everything seemed to be working until I went into my Eclipse IDE. Several things stopped working, icons in the "New" sub-menu items disappeared and when I activated wizards and added items like a new text file, I was unable to complete the creation of the file. If I try to "Save-as" the file to a file named create_products.sql pressing the "OK" button does nothing. This seems to be true of all of the wizards when you try to write out the changes, nothing happens. All these wizards worked correctly under F11. The Eclipse IDE is installed in my /home/user/Application/eclipse directory and was left in tac after the upgrade. Does this mean I need to do a full install and if so will restoring my home directory just result in the same problems? [URL]. Seems that there is a problem with eclipse 3.5.1 and F12 regarding mouse click capture.

Ubuntu Installation :: "Try Hd(0,0): NTFS5: No Wubildr" 2 Minute Hang

May 2, 2010

I'm having a bit of a problem with the new Ubuntu 10.04 installed on my Windows 7 based machine via Wubi. I see the error message "Try hd(0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr" on my screen for around two minutes, then "Try hd(0,1)" shows on the next line briefly, then Grub loads and I can boot normally. All the time the error message is on the screen there is lots of hard drive activity. Is there anything I can do to fix this delay in my booting up sequence?

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Suddenly Stopped Working AND Rfkill Command Not Working

Jul 13, 2011

When originally installing 11.04 I had problems getting my Ralink 5390 wireless card to work.

Today my computer froze completely and I had to turn it off via the power switch. When I turned it back on, wireless was no longer recognized! My iPod can connect to the network just fine, so it must be an Ubuntu problem. There are no problems with my ethernet connection either.

I researched this and found several threads about blocking and unblocking wireless devices using the rfkill command. Well, unfortunately for me the rfkill command doesn't work. When I type sudo rfkill list or sudo rfkill unblock all, nothing happens; it just returns me to my bash prompt. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling rfkill...nothing.

Ubuntu :: Cannot Boot - Failed - No Wubildr

Jan 28, 2011

My laptop was a Windows XP machine. I installed Ubuntu 10.04 using wubi about one month ago, and everything has been working well until this morning.

Yesterday, I had some updates (found by the Update Manager) in Ubuntu, and then switched to my Windows XP to work for a while.

Sadly, when I was trying to boot into my Unbuntu this morning, I failed with a single line of message at prompt: "No wubildr", and my computer just restarted itself. So I booted into my Windows XP, and everything here is working perfect just as before (I'm using it right now). I don't think I deleted anything when working in my Windows XP last time. Also, I do see two files - "wubildr" and "wubildr.mbr" in my C drive in Windows XP (just as before).

So, I don't know what makes me unable to load into my Ubuntu. Is it becasue that the Ubuntu undates yesterday make it incapable of finding the wubildr?

Ubuntu :: DTA Has Stopped Working?

May 14, 2010

resubscribed to Rapidshare and in the past could easily download my friend's discussion papers using the file manager called DTA that integrates into Firefox. I have taken out a new subscription to RS and instead of getting the files I am receiving small html referer files. In theory this should be corrected by ticking a direct download setting on RS, but it is making no difference. I can manually download the files so I am certain the files are on RS in full form. I am also successfully auto logging into RS and this means the name and password are being handed over correctly

Ubuntu :: Computer Freezeing Up Over Night After Updates / Fix It?

May 2, 2011

I have no idea what is happening but I started getting a problem after some updates and then I decided to upgrade to 11.04 from 10.10 to see if this fixed the problem, then I just did a clean install last night and I'm still having problems. I'm always asleep when it happen or not around so I'm not sure what is happening right before this screen, but I can say I usually will only have VLC open (at this point I'm sure it stopped playing videos) and maybe Transmission in the background, nothing else. The computer won't respond to the Ctr+Alt+B+PrtScn or to the power button, or to Crt+Alt+F2 or the like, seems completely frozen...
