Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Boot Windows XP (separate HDD) After Upgrade To 10.04

Jun 15, 2010

Basically, as the topic reads, I normally run Windows XP, and installed Ubuntu on a new HDD this week (Karmic). However, realising later that there was a new release, I just upgraded through the network, completely ignorant of their being anything wrong with this (Windows drive still being connected at this time). Now Ubuntu boots fine, but when I select Windows through the GRUB set-up, it just displays a black screen with the '_' cursor blinking and goes no further.

I have absolutely no clue how to fix this, reading through various forum posts and messing with the boot command (or whatever you call it when you push 'e' at the GRUB screen) all day to no avail. One of the things I've download was the Boot_Info_Script, so hopefully someone out there can gleam some information on how the heck I can solve this issue and boot XP once again (hopefully without having to just blow away one or both of the OS's and doing a completely clean install). If there's anything I can do to provide any further required information, My RESULTS.txt:

Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade Of Machine With Separate Home Partition?

Jul 16, 2010

I will be helping a friend upgrade from 9.04 through to 10.04 LTS, and I am aware that the machine was installed with a separate home partition. I know a clean install is an option however I am tempted by online version upgrades with the thought that any apps they are using will be carried over. Is this a realistic hope? I know that medibuntu for example does not survive a version upgrade.

Ubuntu Installation :: DNS Not Working After Upgrade / What To Do?

Ubuntu Installation :: Aee Not Working After Upgrade?

Oct 18, 2010

I'm not entirely sure this is the proper place for it, but aee doesn't work anymore after upgrading to 10.10. In both gnome terminal & konsole it says "sorry, unable to use this terminal type for screen editing" and exits. It does this remotely even through ssh sessions.

I know aee isn't exactly a new program or anything but what gives? It's a terminal window, how could a console based text editor go wrong.

Ubuntu Networking :: Remote Desktop Server Not Working After 11.04 Upgrade With Confirmation Enabled

May 4, 2011

I just remotely updated my uncle's Ubuntu 10.10 desktop to 11.04. My uncle has no computer skills, so it is very important that I troubleshoot his problems using VNC. After completing the 11.04 upgrade, I was not able to connect to him via VNC. After some fiddling around I was able to connect by turning off the confirmation option in the Security section. We are now using the password security option. The problem is that my uncle does not have any security against my peering eyes.

I tried reinstalling Vinagre, but that didn't help. Is it possible to get the confirmation option working again somehow?

Is there a download link for Vinagre 3.01 (deb)?

Ubuntu Installation :: Xp Not Working After Upgrade Poll?

May 4, 2010

Just trying to analyse why there are so many issues with dual boot after the upgrade.

My story is,

1. I had only Windows xp on my computer

2. I installed Windows 7 RC on a partition

3. I uninstalled Windows 7 RC around april

4. Removed Windows 7 bootloader using [DVD Drive Letter]:ootootsect.exe /nt52

5. Installed ubuntu 9.10 into a new partition with grub as dual-boot

6. Upgraded to 10.04 and XP was not working using dual boot

Want to know how many people used Windows 7 bootsect to clean up the bootloader on their machines, maybe that has something to do with why XP is not clean.

Ubuntu Installation :: Keyboard Not Working After Upgrade To 10.4

May 7, 2010

After upgrading to 10.4 from 9.8, my keyboard wouldn't work on the startup menu, I then went to the console and it worked perfectly. I'm new to Linux so don't know a lot about it. I also tried to reinstall it using:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh -a

But it always stops and return "This page is not dpkg-info anymore, but GNU install info
See the main page for ginstall-info for command line arguments:

I have a LAN with a number of computers including an iMac and a PC dual booting with 10.04.

Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade From 9.10 To 10.04 - Mouse Not Working

Jan 26, 2011

I had an ill-advised upgrade from Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04 (due to needing to beta-test a particular program). My gut told me that I shouldn't do it, but I went ahead and did it anyway. The problem that makes this worse is that I have an ATI Radeon HD 3650, and ATI hates Linux. So upon booting into 10.04 I ended up with no screen. It took a lot of futzing around in the terminal to get things going (including making an xorg.conf file). Installing the ATI proprietary drivers (Catalyst) was an epic failure. Trying to make "radeon" the driver? Epic failure, resulted in a completely unbootable system.

To at least get the system to boot, I deleted xorg.conf (since 10.04 allegedly will discover devices automatically without it) and played around with options in GRUB. Please see my attached menu.lst; that should be my only configuration. The other issue at this point is that my only working driver (that I can find anyway) is vesa. Unfortunately, when using Vesa, my mouse wants to scroll everything down and to the right. This means that if I open any window that has a scrollbar, it will move such so that the scrollbars are to the other end. This makes it all but impossible to make things work.

To make matters worse, now my WINE (specifically, Irfanview) cannot view GIFs. But at least I have a workaround (FTP) to get things to where I can work on them.) At this point I'd be satisfied if I could just get the mouse to stop messing up. I accidentally made it work at one point but I can't retrace the switches I set to make it so. I've tried setting a basic xorg.conf, an ATI-generated xorg.conf, and now no xorg.conf.

Ubuntu Installation :: Mouse Stops Working After 9.10 Upgrade?

Jan 3, 2010

Before I upgraded, I used Ubuntu 9.04 on my Playstation 3. It worked absolutely fine. A couple of days back, I decided to upgrade to ubuntu 9.10 using the update manager. The installation process seemed to go fine, until I booted up the new version. When I booted up, my mouse cursor wouldn't move, whilst my keyboard worked fine, I unplugged and plugged it back in and swapped USB ports, but it came to no use. I reinstalled Jaunty and tried the entire installation process again. After installing the new version again, the same problem occured, my mouse just wouldn't work.

When I type in the command 'uname -a' it comes up with something (I apologize, I am a Linux noob) to do with the 2.6.24 Linux kernel, Ubuntu 9.10 is on the 2.6.31 kernel. Is this the problem? I don't understand what is going on or what the solution is. My mouse is a HP optical mouse if that helps. I can't bring up the terminal window because my mouse just doesn't work, which is really annoying me.

Ubuntu Installation :: Wireless Not Working After Lucid Upgrade

May 1, 2010

After upgrading from Karmic to Lucid, no wireless networks are found on my computer�an acer travelmate 5510. On Karmic, wifi worked flawlessly "out of the box"�no windows drivers or anything needed. I have checked under Administration/hardware drivers; it tells me "no proprietary drivers are in use on this system." Cabled internet access through my wifi router works fine. How to get wifi up and running under Lucid. Despite having used Karmic for a while, I am relatively new to the inner workings of Ubuntu / linux systems, and really don't know where to go from here.

Ubuntu Installation :: Grub Timeout Not Working After Upgrade From 10.04 To 10.10?

Oct 17, 2010

Yesterday I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 (x86_64). The upgrade itself succeeded, but now after booting I have to press enter in the grub OS list. grub.cfg looks like this:

Code:

# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

[code]...

Why do I have to press enter to have grub boot the default entry? How can I get grub to start the default entry automatically, without showing the menu? BTW: entries in the list are default:

Code:

Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.35-22-generic
Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.35-22-generic (recovery mode)
Memory test (memtest86+)
Memory test (memtest86+, serial console 115200)

OpenSUSE :: 11.3 (64bit) GDB Not Working - Missing Separate Debug Info

Oct 11, 2010

I am a hobbyist interested in development and have recently decided to migrate from Windows to Linux and after trying out a number of distributions decided to use openSUSE. After getting somewhat more comfortable with Linux and openSUSE I decided to try and get comfortable with development on this platform.

And hence my problem: After compiling the simplest of programs (hello world) and trying to step through it with gdb I get this output:
Missing separate debuginfo for /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
Try: zypper install -C "debuginfo(buildid)=2b25d8329d1aa713a2cc61b5cb701f6f89c78022"
Missing separate debuginfo for /lib64/libc.so.6
Try: zypper install -C "debuginfo(buildid)=9b674b2caef1982db55e436bca814060e1705b7f"

As soon as I type the command start in gdb. Naturally I tried the recommended zypper downloads to no avail. Furthermore I sought out the glibc debuginfo in the software manager and found nothing which I have not already installed.

On my system are:-devel-32bit
glibc
glibc-32bit
glibc-devel
glibc
glibc-info
glibc-locale
glibc-locale-32bit
glibc-profile
glibc-profile-32bit
gdb
gdbm
gdbm-32bit

All of these are the latest version from the standard 11.3 repositories. I believe these are all the requirements I should need to not have gdb give me errors but sadly that is not the case. Lastly I am running on a 64bit version of openSUSE 11.3.

Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrade From Ibex Server To Lucid Server With Matrix LSA?

I have a dedicated server with Fasthosts. It's currently running Ubuntu Server 8.10 and I want to update it to 10.04.

The only issue I have so far is it runs Matrix Server Appliance 2.0-38

Does anyone know if this will be affected by the upgrade in a bad way?

I have had no luck finding a site for Matrix or any other information.

For the upgrade itself, I was hoping to run do-release-upgrade.

Ubuntu Installation :: GRUB_DEFAULT=saved Not Working After 9.10 -> 10.04 Upgrade (grub 1.98)?

May 21, 2010

Is the "saved" option for grub2 not available after the new upgrade?I had grub2 setup to let me load either windows or ubuntu, whichever I last used, and it worked.After the last update to Ubuntu I cannot get this to work anymore. I can successfully change the default boot entry by entering a number, e.g. "GRUB_DEFAULT=3" but when I put in"GRUB_DEFAULT=saved" it always defaults to the first entry, the latest Ubuntu. I can also change the screenresolution for the grub menu on this computer, but on another computer I cannot change the screen resolution for grub or restore the 'saved' option (I have not tried to change the boot default by numbers on this other computer though). I am only editing /etc/default/grub and running update-grub, is there another script or file I should be changing as well since the update?
