Ubuntu Installation :: Uninstall 11.04 & Return To 10.04?
Jun 15, 2011
I dual boot with XP, My upgrade to 11.04 has been two weeks of FUBAR. I want the 10.04 LTS again. With the 10.04 disk in, I get to the point of "Prepare Disk Space"; it shows XP-pro 81Gb and Ubuntu 11.04 75Gb. There I must choose side-by-side, Use Entire Disk, or Specify partitions Manually. My Question/Problem> The new 11.04 kernel seems so incompatible with my system that I wonder if I need to delete or reformat. Am I likely to have success if I just tell it to do side-by-side.

Greetings beloved Linux users. I had grown accustomed to using Ubuntu on my laptop for the longest time when a nasty virus screwed up my boot sectors on my HP Desktop. I finally bought a nicer computer with Windows 7 back in November of 2010, but I'm having difficulties trying to install Ubuntu onto it. Here are some specs:
Model: Asus CM5571 Desktop PC 64-bit
Processor: Intel Pentium E5400 / 2.7 GHz Dual-Core (yes, a Pentium)
RAM: 6 GB DDR3 SDRAM
Graphics: Intel GMA X4500 Dynamic Video Memory Technology 5.0
Sound Card: Intel HD Audio
I'll be willing to provide more if needed So, I started off trying to load the Ubuntu 10.04 CD I received from the free shipping service off of the Ubuntu website, and that would not boot. It seemed to hang after trying to scan my 500 GB external. So I unplugged that,rebooted, and it seemed to hang on my USB hub. I unplug that, rebooted, and it hangs after trying to making "calls" or something to devices. Not sure at all what is going on there.
I figured I might need a 64-bit edition so I go to the website and burn an ISO of Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit. The same thing happens. I then begin experimenting with the boot options (acpi=off, etc.) and none of that seems to work either. Out of desperation, I find an old 8.04 CD and try to boot from that. It gets past the loading bar but boots into BusyBox only.

In a nutshell: If the computer goes to blank screen (set that way in screensaver settings) I can hit a key and get the unlock dialog. However, if I walk away for longer and come back, I can't get the machine to wake up. It is powered on, but nothing comes up on the screen. I can't get other terminals by using ctrl-alt-FunctionKeys, either. I CAN, though, ssh into the machine from my desktop computer, and that works normally.I've installed 10.04 off of a live CD onto my Toshiba Satellite A45-S250 laptop. I had originally tried upgrading from 9.10 on the machine, however it wouldn't boot after the upgrade. The live CD also originally wouldn't work for me until I used a work around that involved adding "i915.modeset=0 xforcevesa" to the boot command line of the "Install Ubuntu" option of the live CD. This caused the CD to install, and now the laptop works properly.
The computer boots normally now, but on shutdown, the screen does go all "squiggly" before turning off.This doesn't interfere with the shut down or start up, though.I can post whatever logs or such that would help, but would have to be told what is relevant here. I've been using ubuntu on and off on this laptop since sometime in 2005, and have never experienced an issue like this.

I cannot uninstall Firefox, nor can I uninstall Chromium; one always stays if the other is uninstalled. For example, if I remove Firefox, Chromium will appear in its place and vice versa. This has got to be one of the weirdest bugs I've ever seen on Ubuntu! So, how can I uninstall both web browsers?

I am trying to uninstall my LAMP server and my Drupal 7 installation. Unfortunately I cannot find any instructions on uninstalling Druapl from my system. The ones that exist are far too old( < 2008 ) to be relevant. Could someone please direct me how to go about this? Note: I did not use Synaptic for installation. I downloaded the file from the drupal.org site.

My problem started with DVDrip and I mad an apt-on-cd DVD and installed from there rather than download the packages for my twop systems running karmic. I don't know what has happened but now if I try to install/upgrade/remove anything i get the following.
Code:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libevent-execflow-perl: Depends: libanyevent-perl but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

I installed Ubuntu 10.10 along with my Windows 7 operating system. After quite a bit of trial and testing, I've decided to remove Ubuntu. I probably did this incorrectly, but I deleted the Ubuntu partition from within Windows 7 partition manager. The next time I booted the system, the computer tried booting with Grub and failed due to not finding the partition.I've since reinstalled Ubuntu just to be able to dual-boot again. How do I cleanly remove Ubuntu and the Grub boot manager?

In my case, getting fed up with Lucid's flaky behaviour with my particular display, having tried various solutions that were really only half-baked workarounds (the best being to install a mainline kernel) - I decided to install Peppermint Linux next to Ubuntu, thus creating a dual boot system. But I've decided I don't really like Peppermint Linux. Further, in the meantime, I've found a workaround for Lucid which (so far) seems like a longer term solution (I installed Kernel xxxx?-22, while increasing my display's refresh rate - and now all is hunky-dory - it starts perfectly, with a 'normal' visual effects desktop, and even Cheese no longer crashes the system with my old webcam).
Now here's the rub....
How to (a) uninstall Peppermint Linux (with its Grub - which was obviously set over Lucid's) (b) reclaiming the whole hard drive (it's only 40gb total - as it's an oldish machine) for Lucid - without having to reinstall Lucid, which I now have very nicely set up indeed, albeit currently squeezed for space? Is there some nice patient geek out there who can put me out of my misery with a step by step guide? I've tried Google - but everyone with a similar problem seems to want to reclaim the space for Windows!

I recently performed an online update from 9.10 to 10.4 LTS. Unfortunately, the install did not go very well because Bonager cannot be removed; hence the package system is left in an inconsistent state. Attempts to remove Bonager using apt-get does not work.
At this point, I'm thinking that I'll need to perform a fresh install, starting from scratch.

I installed ubuntu by using Wubi to try it out. When I restatered and booted up ubuntu it said claimed to be finishing up installations which was taking nearly 1.5 hours of getting nowhere before I got frustrated and shut it off. I wen't back on windows to see if a re installation would be better. But my computer didn't seem to agree on that and wouldn't uninstall it. So I manually deleted the files myself. Now when I start up my computer I still see the choice to boot up kubuntu but yet there is no kubuntu if I select it. Any ideas how to get rid of the selection and why wubi didn't work? Not even live CD's are working on my computer.

I joined about 2 weeks ago because I was going to get an ubuntu 10.04 64 bit vps, but I had troubles installing a hosting panel so I changed to debian lenny and installed ehcp ehcp.net and it's working fine,but I have a problem which you could help me with because ubuntu is based on debian and it's not a big problem to solve. I bought a vps from micohosting and everything is working fine, the vps is still clean, no bandwidth is being used, no cpu and no disk space....However I 472mb of ram which is 90% of what I'm allowed to use...It's my bad because I have installed every feature of ehcp....I didn't though that it's gonna use that much lol.
Now I wanna uninstall some feature, like ffmpeg...So how to do so via ssh or via cpanel? and what feature use the most ram? what do you advise me to uninstall? my site will be some kind of video hosting site...kind of so I need to install flash player guys...but first I wanna uninstall some stuff...
This vps is gonna be used for the demo so later on I'm gonna buy servers....so nobody will be using disk space coz it's a demo and I can control what is being uploaded one more thing guys...as an admin, I created reseller accounts, does that use ram? I don'r think so coz nothing is being uploaded to the site yet....just wanna know what you think
