Ubuntu Installation :: Broken System After Crash During 9.10 To 10.04 / Get This Fixed?

May 1, 2010

As the title says, i was in the middle of the upgrade, when the system froze then a black screen with the text similar to: starting apache ..... starting ..... ... in that way, but with more text, i could not remember the exact details. When i boot up, it say /dev not found, and other errors, and a weird black screen that seems to be loading modules appears, but never finishes and starts to act strange. Any way i can get this fixed without just copying my data and reimaging my partition.

and
dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/*udev*

using packages from a lucid install I had on another laptop which didn't have the USB problem.Now everything is fine. Maverick has some problem with USB.

Ubuntu :: Recovering Broken Files?

Feb 3, 2010

I installed Ubuntu 9.10 on a 100 GB partition of my 120 GB hard disk. I left the other 20 GB as free space. I moved my data (about 20 GB) to my home folder. Everything was fine for two days. Then I installed a few packages with the help of Update Manager.he installation, I was asked to reboot. Upon reboot, I was always taken to the Memtest86+. It was as if GRUB wasn't detecting my ubuntu installation.Then I installed Ubuntu again by taking up 20 GB of the existing 100GB partition. I am currently using this installation. When I try to access the older installation (the 80 GB one), I find that all my data in my home folder is broken. (screenshot attached - homefolderbroken.png). homefolderbroken.jpgWhen I see the properties of the 80GB partition, I can find my data is still present (screenshot attached - data.png

Ubuntu :: Rcovering Files From Broken Install?

Mar 22, 2011

was attepting a boot loop fix when my ubuntu froze half way through uninstalling gnome, I am unable to boot in any mode from the grub and get errors about failing to load duv or sys or something of the kind, I cannot reach any command line either...Now if I boot in a live cd my hdd is visible but I cannot mount it, no problem mounting a windows drive but the ubuntu one will now I get many errors such as a job is pending and others that are similar, I have tried last night for 5hours (not an exagguration) many solutions to get it mounted.

If I boot the windows hdd the ubuntu drive does not display in my computer and.I have the cable and jumpers set correctly.Basically I cannot view what is on the drive at all, I'm wondering is there anyway to copy the drive to another hdd or usb other than what I have done, or could you suggest something to make one of these methods work?Thanks a lot, I need to get some very important files back from the drive, and from now on I will backup A LOT!

Debian Programming :: How To Trace Broken LIB Files

Dec 5, 2014

The usual answer is debian's ldd(1) and I found broken things due to past lib abuses I previously hadn't understood I'd did - or rather hadn't realized because by looking it "looked ok and worked" - but i had problems. many i fixed.

After I ran a new script: it showed some i'd STILL missed after carefully re-doing /lib by hand (and using /var/lib/dpkg/info/libs.list)

I just made something that might be nice. seems to be the only thing that does it. but its' small and quick and has (tty/stdout) output still.

the had part isn't finding info, objdump(1) does that wonderfully : it's using it..

OpenSUSE Network :: Apache Virtual Hosts Broken After Deleting Log Files?

Feb 22, 2011

I run a dedicated opensuse 11.1 server with apache (2.2.10-2.9.1) installed. This box has been running for nearly 2 years hosting several low traffic websites. I must admit that I did not give lots of love/attention to the machine over that period. It ran rock solid. The different websites each have their own associated user account and are stored in their own /home/name/public_html/ folder. It was setup through Webmin. Each domain name is also linked to a unique IP (the box has multiple available IPs), however this is configured at my domain provider. All in all a very simple and straightforward setup that never let me down most of the past decade.

Recently the sites on the machine were no longer responding. This happens each other year or so since I write my logfiles to a separate partition. Was df -h and indeed, partition was full. Removed logfiles manually, and while I was at it I decided it was time to run an online update (yast2 / online update that is). Rebooted machine after yast telling me to do so. Sites are no longer working. Can no longer login to webmin. Only thing what works is the 'root' webpage (/srv/www/htdocs folder), which makes me rather clueless as the other sites are just not responding at all, not even a timeout or error message.While I know that deleting logfiles manually is quite stupid, I've done it fore and not really ended up in trouble.

Hence my questions: does this sound familiar to anyone and do you mind to give me a clue about where exactly I should start to look. It's been ages since I actually administrated apache, so I might overlook the obvious. Long story short: any tips are very welcome about what I should check first, what config files might have been changedith the update, etc ...

General :: Playing Broken Video Files (Binary Split Into 6 Parts)

May 26, 2011

Today encoders are getting smarter. They can compress Blu ray similar quality in 700MB. It seems header of video file contain info about frame rate, audio/video encoder etc. which can't be guessed. In MPEG audio , every part of file is independently playable. If a movie is binary split into 6 parts & I don't have the first part then it is unplayable.

Code:
example
ls
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 280M 2010-12-07 20:23 irn2-cd1.mkv
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 50M 2011-05-26 13:09 last-50M-cd2
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 50M 2011-05-26 13:44 first-50M-cd1

Ubuntu Installation :: Unable To Fix Broken Adobe Flash Installation?

Apr 7, 2010

I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 again on my PC after a long time. Everything was working fine. No problems at all. After running all the necessary updates, I wanted to install Adobe Flash. This I did by going to Adobe's site. I selected the APT version for 9.04+. It was installing fine UNTIL there was a power cut. Since then I have been trying out various methods of repair suggested in these forums. But again and again get the same message:Quote:

Ubuntu Installation :: New Dual Boot Installation Broken After Few Days

Jan 2, 2011

I decided to install a dual boot on my Sony Vaio recently.Installation has not gone well.I attempted to install latest version desktop 10.10 with a CD. I was able to choose a language, then screen went black. I heard some music after a few minutes but no video. I was eventually able to boot the system several times under recovery mode. Several other forums and posts suggest that the problem was with my Vaio graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce GT 230M).After the initial dual boot screen, where I'm able to choose operating system, if I choose either Ubuntu or Ubuntu safe mode a bunch of text scrolls by and ends with.

Ubuntu Installation :: Which PPA Is Broken?

Sep 2, 2010

I like PPAs. They're great. I have dozens I use. Sometimes they go down or even get deleted, and then I'm sad. Even worse, I can't figure out a straight forward way to know which one has gone down or been deleted. They all show up in aptitude update's output as [URL].. Packages". For example:

Code:
~$ sudo aptitude update
[snip]...
Hit http://ppa.launchpad.net lucid/main Packages
Hit http://us.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-proposed/multiverse Sources
Hit http://us.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-proposed/universe Sources
Err http://ppa.launchpad.net lucid/main Packages

[Code]...

In a nutshell, this disables each PPA one by one and tries to update. When aptitude update finally succeeds (returns 0 on exit), the name of the broken sources.list file is printed to the screen. This works, but it doesn't seem like I should have to go to these lengths.Is there any way to get aptitude to report more than "one of your many ppa.launchpad.net repo's is bad, see if you can guess which one?"

Ubuntu Networking :: Configuring IPv4 With Fixed Ip?

Aug 2, 2010

Our router is pretty old and only capable of giving fixed ip and there is no support for IPv6. Via the gnome networkmanager I try to set a manual IP to 192.168.1.123 and a netmask to 255.255.255.0 and a default gw at 192.168.1.1 . However, this does not work.

If I open a terminal and type:

Code:
sudo ifconfig eth0 inet 192.168.1.123
sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.1
Then I get a perfectly valid connection to the internet.
ifconfig by it self returns:

[Code]....

ffor me it seems that the gnome network manager doesn't save the information that I gently ask it to.

I can fix it with the CLI commands, but I would like to know whats going on.

Ubuntu Installation :: How To Repair Broken Grub2

Mar 31, 2010

I am currently in a country where the internet speed is roughly 15KB at best, if at all. So I cant download the 9.10 live CD. My grub2 broke when I reinstalled windows (because its so virus prone). This guide: [URL]. Says how to repair grub2 using grub2 live CD. Currently I have access to a 6.10 Ubuntu CD but when I try to mount the boot partition I get an error saying that the filesystem has unknown options. I think that the latest filesystem didn't exist back then and even if that would work. Can I reinstall grub2 using grub? Or is there any possibility to download an ultra small linux live system image with grub2? it seems all ubuntu variations come in 500MB+ packs.
