Ubuntu :: Reverting Any Changes Made To Plymouth?

Aug 9, 2010

I just change the theme to plymouth and also apply this command:

sudo echo FRAMEBUFFER=y > /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth
sudo update-initramfs -u

I know that it made the boot time much longer and now I want to undo/revert the changes that I've made.

Ubuntu :: Reverting 10.04 To 9.10?

May 26, 2010

Way to revert my 10.04 (2.6.31.21) to 9.10.

<rant>10.04 has been a disaster for my Acer laptop. NVidia must hate Ubuntu because any time I try to load into 2.6.32.22, the damn thing black-screens and dies. 2.6.31.21 "works", but I get flooded with errors related to the generic nvidia drivers. And I've specifically NOT installed the proprietary drivers because I know from past experience that they kill my computer, regardless of which Ubuntu version I use. Plus 10.04 is just... why did they change everything? The default color scheme makes my eyes bleed, and even the close/minimize/maximize buttons are in the wrong place. But that's minor... The real problem is that my graphics capabilities are shot to hell, and since this is a computer used for work-related image processing, I need 9.10 back.</rant>

Reinstalling from disk is not an option since any install disc (alt or otherwise) newer than 8.04 fails. (A fresh install of 9.10 involved installing 8.04 => 8.10 => 9.04 => 9.10) Is there a simple apt-get type command I can use to revert it?

Ubuntu :: Reverting From Gnome 3 To 11.04?

Apr 30, 2011

I basically accidentally installed gnome3 on ubuntu tweak (I didn't notice the box was checked) and next time I started up I could only use the gnome 3 environment which is massively buggy. I wish to revert back to 11.04 (without a clean install, since I have a lot of files I need to keep). I have tried purging the gnome3 team ppa but I get the following error:

"sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3/
Updating packages lists
PPA to be removed: gnome3-team/gnome3 ppa

Ubuntu Installation :: Reverting To PHP 5.2 On Lucid?

May 11, 2010

After upgrading to Lucid, I found that I still had a need for php 5.2, instead of the 5.3 that is installed during the Lucid upgrade. I tried the method found here:

[URL]

I added in /etc/apt/preferences.d/php all the packages that I use for php, including libapache2-mod-php5, installed, and ran a2enmod php5 before restarting apache. However, my browser still tells me if I want to download php files on my server. I cleared the browser cache, a2enmod'ed again, restarted apache2 again, and still the same.

how to get php scripts running again on apache.

EDIT: I should note I can get SOME php files parsed by apache, but some are not parsed. All files reside in some subdirectory of /var/www/.

Ubuntu :: Fglrx Reverting To Low Resolution?

Jun 7, 2010

I recently reinstalled using the latest "respin" CD ISO. Before that, I had other problems with 10.04, but X and fglrx worked perfectly.

Now, X always comes up in 1600x1200 instead of the monitor native 1920x1200. I am still using the same on-board Radeon 4200. Supposedly this display adapter is very well supported by Linux???

I did an aticonfig --initial as suggested in the Known Lucid Lynx issues/bugs with workarounds thread, but when I restarted X I got a black screen, and when I rebooted, even though xorg.conf now says

Code:
Option "PreferredMode" "1920x1200"

The system still comes up in 1600x1200. Note it is on DVI and I never touched the hardware or put a bad cable on it since it was working with the first install of 10.04.

When I go into Catalyst Control Center, Display Manager, Display Properties tab, the highest resolution available is 1600x1200. I hand-edited X11 and restarted and ran for a while in 1920x1200, but that no longer works. Now I just get a black screen whenever I restart X, and it always starts in 1600x1200.

How do I convince fglrx that I really have a 1920x1200 monitor? (VP2330wb). It is really very blurry in 1600x1200.

EDIT: Ran get-edid, got:

Code:
get-edid: get-edid version 2.0.0
Performing real mode VBE call
Interrupt 0x10 ax=0x4f00 bx=0x0 cx=0x0

Ubuntu :: Appearance Settings Reverting By Themselves?

Mar 17, 2011

I've got Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit on my Dell laptop, and on my Appearance/visual effects tab I've selected None. But when I reboot, it changes by itself to Normal. How can I make it stay on None?Edit: I just created another user on this pc. After reboot it stays on None for this user, suggesting it's a per-user setting I need to fix, not a system wide one.

Ubuntu :: Screen Resolution Keeps Reverting To 640X480

Feb 10, 2010

I am test driving Ubuntu 9.04 (Desktop) - the screen resolution always pops up as 800 x 600 - Preference Display tells me there is a different graphics driver (which I have installed) and set to 1280 X 800 which then works till I re-boot. I changed it in NVIDIA X Server Settings. When I try to save to X configuration I get a message "Unable to create new X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'." - which I presume is because I am not in superuser mode - how do I set up a superuser account (is this even possible?) or is there a nioce simple way for a real newbie to fix this?

Ubuntu :: Keyboard Keep Reverting Back To US Layout

Apr 2, 2010

I've got an UK keyboard, and every time I boot up, Ubuntu keep reverting back to the US keyboard layout which is annoying me. I open up keyboard preferences, the UK layout is already selected. So I delete the US layout, click on "Apply System-wide" and it works. Until I reboot and the US layout is back in there! I suspect it's something to do with not having admin privileges to permanently save the changes - if this is the case, why it doesn't ask me for my password, or give me a chance to escalate my privileges or something?

Ubuntu :: Reverting Kubuntu Usplash Theme From 10.04

Apr 25, 2010

A while back had installed the kubuntu-desktop package onto my normal Ubuntu 9.10 install in order to use several KDE apps (mostly KGet). It changed my bootsplash to the Kubuntu one at that point which I found mildly annoying (as I still use the standard Gnome interface - I just wanted the KDE libs/apps installed). Anyways, I've updated to version 10.04 RC and the Kubuntu splash persisted (I thought the upgrade would replace it), and now the colors on it are corrupted.I found some instructions on how to revert it (sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so), but that command doesn't seem to work in 10.04 anymore.

Not sure if this is normal, but I'm also having a problem where when logged into Gnome, when inside of a KDE app my cursor theme reverts to default until I leave that windows. Pretty strange. I thought it was picking up the cursor theme from KDE for a while but after logging in there I noticed that KDE is not using the same default theme. Not sure if this is a normal problem or if it's just a side affect of me upgrading rather than doing a clean install of 10.04 (my 9.10 install itself was an upgrade from 9.04).

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Microphone Choice Keeps Reverting?

Jun 9, 2010

I converted my parents to use Ubuntu on their laptop, and they seem to like it. One minor issue though is that the microphone input preference keeps reverting, so every time they want to use an internet phone, they have to reset it manually by going to System/Preferences/Sound/Input and choosing the external USB microphone. Then they can launch the phone program (Skype in this case, but it doesn't matter which one.) My Dad asked me that he doesn't have to do this on Windows so why does he have to with Ubuntu? I am hoping there is a way for me to fix it so he doesn't have to. (We don't have a microphone that plugs into the "internal audio analog stereo" line.)

When they finish talking, they unplug the external microphone and this is when the preference seems to revert to the "internal audio analog stereo" setting, which makes sense, but when the external microphone gets plugged back in, it would be great if it "remembered" it. Is there a way to make this happen automatically?

Ubuntu :: Reverting From Gnome3 Back To Unity?

Jun 30, 2011

I reverted back from Gnome3 to Unity using ppa-purge, but now I have 2 annoying issues: The launcher reverts back to its default after login/logout. Any extra items I "Keep in launcher" are gone. The clock is stuck in 12h mode and it doesn't take any new settings. 24h clock, showing seconds etc. all fail.

I have 2 different systems affected, one 64-bit and one 32-bit (pae kernel).

Ubuntu :: Hosts File Keeps Reverting / Stop It To Do So?

Aug 3, 2011

I'm configuring Apache to work from several development directories as per these instructions: http://tuxtweaks.com/2009/07/how-to-...-apache-linux/

Got it all to work ok, for a while but then when I reboot the entries I've made in the hosts file dissapear and I can no longer use them.

I'm assuming DHCP reverts the hosts file or something?

What's the 'proper' way to get an entry into a hosts file and have it stay there?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Reverting To Default Video Drivers

Jun 17, 2010

When Lucid Lynx came out I did a clean install on my laptop by burning an iso. Unfortunately, I got an annoying bug in which the image would always be wiggly (wavy) in the external monitor. In an attempt to fix the issue, I tried to installed Ati's restricted drivers. Unfortunately, my graphics card (Radeon x1200) isn't supported by them on Ubuntu 10.04, and trying to install it anyway only made things worse.

Right now, I just want it to be back to what it was when I first installed Lucid. Following the instructions on this page, I have already removed the fglrx drivers, and I think I installed the open-source driver. However, I can tell that things are not the way they were when I first installed. By going in "Main menu > System > Preferences > Monitors" I get the usual menu to configure the monitors, except I can't actually configure anything.

There's only one monitor (listed as Unknown), and the system doesn't let me change any of the settings (such as resolution or frequency). The external monitor is showing the same output as the laptop monitor, and doesn't get recognized by the system. I just want to use the exact graphics drivers that came installed in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx. But I don't want to do a clean install.

Ubuntu Installation :: Reverting 10.04 To Earlier Versions Of Brasero

Jan 12, 2011

CD/DVD burning on 10.04 used to work wonderfully, but now its broken and can not create multiple copies. I don't burn a lot of disks these days but when I do its almost certain I need multiple copies.How can I revert to the version that came with my original 10.04 (64-bit) install or one perhaps a prior version to the current I have been "updated" to 2.30.2-0ubuntu1? From what I can find with Google 10.04 shipped with 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 So either it or 2.30.1 is what I need to find. How do I force a "downgrade" to what used to work for me?

Ubuntu :: Launcher / Sidebar Keeps Reverting To Default - Sort It?

Jun 16, 2011

I'm having a problem with Unity on 11.04. I had installed Gnome 3 just to see what its like and kind of play around with it. I didn't much care for it so i uninstalled it using ppa-purge. It uninstalled, i rebooted and loaded up Unity. It loaded fine but the side bar/launcher/whatever was back to default, with just frefox, libre office, and ubuntu one on it. So i put all my programs back on the launcher (chromium, vlc, clementine etc.) and everything was fine. Until i rebooted, and the sidebar again reverted to default. Every time i turn my computer off and then back on, the sidebar goes to the default programs (but stays the smaller size i changed it to using compiz). No idea why or how to fix it, but it's only happened since i uninstalled Gnome 3...so i assume that has something to do with it.

Ubuntu :: Reverting Back Before An Flash Plug-in Installation

Aug 21, 2009

Recently installed Ubuntu. It resurrected a dead machine. While using Miro, I went to a site in Firefox to check on a video downloads. The site said I couldn't play their files and gave me the option of downloading flash. Since Ubuntu was having trouble getting the dependancies together for me to load flash and make it work, I downloaded their offer. Now Miro doesn't recognize any of the available videos to download when I try to access them. How do I reverse the downloads?

Slackware :: Reverting To 13.1 - Compatible And Stable

Jul 22, 2011

Hate to say it but 13.37 has too many issues for me to be considered compatible and stable. While it is a nice release, there are too many issues with how the system handles itself for my tastes to be considered usable without a severe fight that I do not wish to continue on with. I do ask that the developers of Slackware, if they do indeed read this, please take into consideration that 13.1 support needs to be extended until the next version can come out that has the same levels of stability and ease of use 13.1 has. Not to be negative, but 13.37 did feel a bit BETA.

Ubuntu :: Manual Driver Update Reverting To Old Version After Boot

Jul 13, 2010

I'm trying to setup bonding on two GigE cards. Things seem find but when I test out a couple different file transfers on samba, I'm getting a kernel panic. In the process I'm trying to update the e1000e driver (Intel 82574L). The problem I'm having with this is after I reboot, the old e1000e driver is getting loaded.

Here's some background. Installed is 10.04, upgraded and dist-upgraded:

Code:

Code:

Below I note "1.0.2-k2" for driverversion.

Code:

So I downloaded and updated e1000e to version 1.1.19 by following their directions, first backing up the old driver:

Code:

And then I uninstall the old one, install the new one per README file

Code:

After restarting networking, my lshw is now (note that driverversion=1.1.19-NAPI now):

Code:

So here comes the problem and I must be missing something here - after I reboot, the old 1.0.2-k2 driverversion is loaded.
