Ubuntu Installation :: Stuck Without A GUI

May 11, 2010

As a struggling nubie (i have only been using Ubuntu on my laptop for a year and loving it!) i tried to install ubuntu onto my other PC (Powermac G5 dual core 2.5ghz sata hdd PPC). I Originaly wanted to install to a seperate harddrive but with the open firmware on the ppc it seemed a little complicated and i went for a normal instalation.I was told that the alternate CD would be the only one that would install to my type of pc correctly. The instalation seemed to go okay, though at the end of the software install it flashed up with an error message saying that i had not finnished this task corrrectly. seeing as the error message was only after all packages had been retrived i carried on regardless.

I then rebooted after instalation and i can only access Ubuntu through the command line (no GUI) i tried sudo apt- getupdate and sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop I then get the message;"Media change: please insert disc labelled 'Ubuntu 10.04 LTS _Lucid Lynx_- Release powerpc 20100428' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter"I tried it with the live "desktop" CD and the alternate CD but neither of them seem to work giving me the Error "Unable to fetch some archives..." I searched for a release that corresponded "Ubuntu 10.04 LTS _Lucid Lynx_- Realease powerpc (20100428" but i couldn't find a release on google apart from a page of server releases with the same release number.

Ubuntu :: Stuck After 10.04 Upgrade

May 26, 2010

I finally gave in tonight and upgraded to 10.04. When it went to restart, it wouldn't boot back in. I got the error: Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:

-Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)

ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/6cb7dd44-88ea-4345-a661-4bbd**** does not exist. Dropping to a shell! BusyBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu11) built in shell (ash) (initramfs) Ok, so when I was upgrading, I chose to "keep the existing version" of the boot file or something (forget the wording, but I get the impression it's the menu.lst). This may affect things. Ok, so I'm staring at the (initramfs) line on the screen. Where should I go from here? I'm working with a normal ubuntu desktop install on a toshiba netbook (worked just fine with 9.10).

Ubuntu :: 10.10 Getting Stuck On Startup (not Always)

Jan 22, 2011

I installed Ubuntu 10.10 x64 on my Acer TimelineX 4820 TG, and everything was messy. I updated the bios, and it got a lot of things done but I still have a couple of problems:

1) Almost every time I boot my notebook, it gets stuck on the splash screen (I am using the open source graphics drivers), and it will get stuck 3-4 times and require manual restarts until I can login properly. Also, the applet icons get mixed up or lost on the upper gnome bar.

2) When I install the proprietary ATI drivers, my screen is not recognised (at least I think so), and I am stuck with a terminal and no graphics at all.

Ubuntu Servers :: Get Stuck When Rebooting

Feb 4, 2010

We have some Ubuntu x64 8.04 servers that sometimes get stuck when rebooting. The only thing we see on the screen is "Loading, please wait" and some stuff below. I am attaching a picture of the monitor. We have this specific server set to reboot constantly while we try to figure out the issue however we don't know where to start, can we look at logs at this point (probably not since the hard drives aren't mounted yet), can we add debug info?

Ubuntu :: DVD Drive Is Stuck After Some Time

Apr 28, 2010

When DVD is inserted in the drive, it mounts and is read perfectly. But after some time of inactivity disk and drive becomes "frozen". Any attempt to acces files on the disk leads to drive spin-up, and no response from the drive and disk for several minutes. "eject", "umount" and eject button for this drive in this situation fail. after some time of "spinned-up-frozen" the drive spins down. At this moment it is possible to eject the disk by drive button, close the tray (with the disk) back, and the disk is again mounted and read properly (until next period of inactivity). "dmesg" during the "freeze" time shows the repeated disk error messages:

Quote:

"dd" for this disk (at the moment of non-freeze) passes fine, copying all the data without problems, so disk quality is not the issue.

Ubuntu :: Stuck In Terminal On Boot?

Aug 11, 2010

I started my computer up in ubuntu today and got an error while it was running through a system check. It said "Errors were found while checking the disk drive for /". I pressed F to fix it and a while later, instead of booting like it normally would, it went to the terminal.

It asked for me to login, and when I did, it said:
/usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-updates-available: 52: cannot create /var/lib/update-notifier/updates-available: Directory nonexistent

Ubuntu :: GParted Progress Bar Stuck?

Aug 19, 2010

I removed my Ubuntu 10.04 partition from my hard disk with GParted because it didn't install properly and there were no solutions available. After I removed it, I set it up to extend my Vista partition into the unallocated space. It's been going for three hours so far (which I expected) but the progress bar is now stuck. The timer's stopped and everything; it's not increasing infinitely like when your internet cuts out when downloading something, it's just stopped. Here's a screenshot:[URL]..

I know to resist the allure of the Cancel button, but I don't really know what to do here. It's been sitting here for about half an hour with no sign of budging.

Ubuntu Installation :: Apt Gets Stuck On Update?

Sep 17, 2010

I am running Ubuntu Lucid on a machine (32 bit version). When I run apt-get update it gets stuck at 99%. I have also other variants running in Virtual box. (ubu student, mint-debian, Ubuntu Maveric). All the OS have this problem. Searched through the Debian bugtracker, they've had this problem at least since 2008. It seems that it worked until the update the other day I think it was last weekend at least on lucid If there is a connection problem at the server end shouldn't it at least time out or something giving you a message that it couldn't access the server, I mean it does but only if I hit cancel. Or control+c in the command line. How can one update if the update manager isn't working correctly?

Ubuntu :: Stuck In Loop After Upgrade

Sep 19, 2010

I just upgraded to 10.04 Netbook Remix.When I boot, it gets past the splash screen and to the desktop. Before it can load anything, it acts as if it is looping. The wallpaper loads, the screen blinks white and then it loads the wallpaper again... then a white screen, then the wallpaper.I've tried to bring up the terminal and can't do that. I've also rebooted in recovery mode which didn't help.I'm at a loss. I'm on a windoze machine now since I can't get on my netbook.

Ubuntu Installation :: 10.04 - Get Stuck At Partitioning

Nov 11, 2010

I am installing UNR 10.04 but I get stuck at the partition because I want to dual boot with windows and I am afraid to go far without professional advice. What i want to do is install ubuntu on my D:/ drive and keep xp on my C drive. This is the current state of my hard drives at the moment (screenshot.png). I don't know what all the boxes to the right are for either. Also my D drive (which I want ubuntu on) has ext4 on it from a previous failed attempt to install linux mint. Because of this when I go to install ubuntu it shows xp on the C drive and linux mint on the D drive although the installation was botched and I cant really boot into linux mint. I have provided a screenshot of this too (screenshot-1.png). How to install UNR on my D drive properly. Iknow I need to add a swap partition how do I do that?

Ubuntu :: 10.04 Stuck On Splash Screen?

I removed Cairo from synaptic. Since then Ubuntu doesn't start - it gets stuck on the splash screen, which is Mac-like (since I had installed Macubuntu): I see the apple logo and the rotating wait prompt is running like hell. My pc has dual boot (Vista is my other OS) with grub2 loader.

Ubuntu :: Stuck Pixel In Program?

Nov 20, 2010

I thought it was just a normal stuck pixel the first day I saw it, but then I noticed if I move opera around the screen they stay with opera. It doesn't occur with any other programs, only opera. These pixels also show up when I take a screenshot. Is there a way to get rid of these pixels (or whatever they are)?

Ubuntu :: Stuck In Login Screen?

Nov 21, 2010

I'm using ubuntu 10.04 and I recently tried installing certain python libraries. The installation of pyXML failed because python.h wasn't present. I thought I could solve this problem by reinstalling python. So I did:

Code:
sudo apt-get remove python
Unexpectedly, this command caused all kinds of other things to be uninstalled (like gnome)

Ubuntu :: Stuck In A Log-in Screen Loop?

Dec 26, 2010

Not sure exactly how to describe it. I'll try to get a video for reference. The log-in screen comes up, I type in my password, hit enter, and the screen goes black and the log-in screen comes back up. I'm currently using a BackTrack installation (it sucks) and I'd like to go back to an OS that connects to the internet automatically, instead of me having to redo everything from a terminal upon startup

I've been trying to resurrect an old laptop (think Pentium 800 old ) by installing Ubuntu on it. I thought I was in the clear after downloading and booting, but then I get stuck at the 'Ready When You Are' screen. This is Ubuntu 10.10I have seen previous such issues caused by caps in the username, but I've not been prompted to even enter a username yet so I really don't know what could be causing this, and I don't know where to begin searching.

Ubuntu :: Cpu Frequency Governor Stuck

Feb 4, 2011

I'm using the latest kernel and after I boot up my computer the cpu governor changes from the fastest setting (2ghz) to the slowest setting (800mhz), and gets stuck there. Theres no obvious way to change the setting, the gnome applet to change the cpu frequency doesn't work - I've also tried to change the setting manually through the /sys/ directory but to no avail.

There was a suggestion to fallback on an older kernel, but my older kernels suffer from the same bug.Does anybody have any ideas? I can provide more information on request.

Ubuntu :: Key Gets Stuck When Disabling Keyboard?

Feb 21, 2011

I'm running into some weird behavior while using xinput to disable the keyboard that might be an underlying bug, and I'm wondering if anyone could reproduce it or provide any insight into what's causing it. I'm running Ubuntu desktop 10.10 64-bit in a VMware Workstation VM running on a Windows 7 64-bit host.First I use "xinput list" to find out which keyboards are present in the system. In my case there's only one with id=9. Next I execute "xinput set-prop 9 "Device Enabled" 0" to disable the keyboard at id=9. Now, if I type this into the terminal and hit enter, the keyboard gets disabled but at the same time the enter key becomes stuck. The system thinks the enter key is being held down.

However, if I make a script with the same command and execute it by clicking it in Nautilus, the keyboard gets disabled and no keys are stuck. It seems if the keyboard is disabled with a press of the keyboard, then whatever key was pressed to trigger the disabling of the keyboard becomes stuck.

You might ask why I would want to disable the keyboard in the first place. It's because I'm running Ubuntu in VMware Unity mode, where the system in the VM is integrated with the host desktop system, the VM's windows appear as individual windows on the host desktop,etc. In this mode, whenever I close a VM window by hitting a key on the keyboard (for example, hitting Ctrl+D while in gnome-terminal) and focus goes back to a host window, then that key becomes stuck the next time I open a VM window. If I close a VM window by clicking the mouse then there's no problem. I'm pretty sure now that this is caused by the above mentioned bug from disabling the keyboard. I think in Unity mode VMware workstation runs a script to disable the keyboard in the guest whenever VM windows lose focus, so key presses don't continue to be piped to the guest OS. However, if this action is triggered by a press of the keyboard, then that key becomes stuck in the guest OS.
