Ubuntu :: SD Card Only Opens In Readonly?
Jul 12, 2010
I am trying to write a file to a SD card in my card reader.When Ubuntu first boots in and I open up the SD card It gives the option to create folders and files. However after a second or two the window closes and then will only let me vew the files.Does anyone know how I can fix this so that the SD card is able to be written to?The lock is not on the SD card, and under permissions it states that I have permission to create and delete files.I am using an up to date version of Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04I have tried searching for a solution but cannot find anything relevant that works
Edit :
output of syslog from removing and reinserting the SD card

When I open an open office document from an NFS share it always opens as readonly. This was a problem I had on Arch linux and the fix was to change the locking options in the soffice script but I've tried that fix here and it doesn't work. I've seen a lot of discussions but they all go back to changing the locking options in soffice, has anyone got any alternative fixes or one that definitely works with locking?

On one of my servers I see this when I log in. What does this mean and how can I get it to go away? Everything seems to work fine, but none of my other machines give this error.

I am a new Ubuntu user running Lucid Lynx and since some time suddenly my /home filesystem (mounted as ext3 on /dev/sda2) goes read-only.Is there a way to mount back the filesystem in the correct way without rebooting the system? I assume I won't be able to unmount the filesystem when I am logged on.

I am following a gtk2-perl tutorial, so I wrote the test program, installed gtk2-perl, and got this error:
Code:
Can't locate readonly.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1 /usr/share/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl /usr/share/perl5/core_perl /usr/lib/perl5/current /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/current .) at ./test.pl line 7. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./test.pl line 7.
I googled readonly.pm, and figured out it's part of some Readonly module.But how do I install it? Preferably using the Arch package manager?

I have a system in which I want to have /etc in a read-only filesystem. What can I do with mtab? It gets write at /etc/init.d/mountall.sh (that is, /etc/rcS/S35mountall.sh)

Using Debian Lenny
OpenOffice 2.4
I'm trying to fill in an application form that I downloaded. It has some shaded areas where I can answer questions, but there are
a couple places where the shaded areas are missing.Have you previously applied with the C.B.E? "Readonly content cannot be changed No modifications will be accepted." Can I add a shaded area in so I can fill this in, or can I disable the read only part?

I have a Linksys WRT54G with the Tomato firmware on it. So the system running on the router is Busybox 1.14., which as far as I know is Linux-based. I want to update the busybox to the newest version, using ipkg which is the only package manager it has installed on it. By the way, I use telnet to access the router. So I use # ipkg install (the url to newest busybox release) but at some point it stops and says:
mkdir: cannot create directory '//opt/usr/': Read-only file system
so what can I do? How can I make the filesystem read-write?

I'm learning to configure tftp-server and using vi editor - google search not helpful at least what comes up first - maybe different in Fedora ?
[url]
Code:
But . . . vi editing etc/shadow I get . . . E45: 'readonly' option is set (add ! to override)
In INSERT MODE - do I add ! as !wq instead of :wq as I found in google search (that's NOT working) - - or - do I add ! on the line to set tftp server password to * -or - what?

I have a Windows 2003 server with fiber attached volumes (NTFS) that I would like to mount readonly on a linux system to back it up to tape. The fiber device will allow me to present the volume R/W to one host and R/O to another, however, the R/O system doesn't see any of the changes made by the R/W server. In other words, how can I make a readonly volume refresh, scan for changes, or update without un/re-mounting it?
Is the "mount -o --bind" option what I want? From the MAN is doesn't seem right... the option "sync" seems slightly more promising but I think I'm just grasping at straws here. The best I have come up with is a cron job to unmount then mount the volume periodically.

I have an external 3.5" USB 250Gb HDD which is showing symptoms of hardware problems (repeated /var/log/messages errors of "reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd"). This was originally plugged in to my NSLU2 running Debian Etch. I have just installed Ubuntu Desktop 9.10 to a spare Pentium-3M laptop and was hoping to copy the contents of this HDD to a fresh drive. However, I cannot mount it even read-only; mount -o ro /dev/sde3 /mnt/disk fails, and the /var/log/messages error is "recovery required on readonly filesystem", "write access unavailable, cannot proceed". I cannot understand why mounting a disk read-only should require write access. Following advice I googled elsewhere, I tried running mke2fs -n /dev/sde3 to try to list the alternative superblocks - but once again I got the error that the device was read-only. How can I go about accessing the data on this disk?

My linux distro is CentOS 5.3. Today I edited /etc/sysconfig/readonly-root and set "READONLY" to yes, now my /etc/sysconfig/readonly-root file is like this:
# Set to 'yes' to mount the system filesystems read-only.
READONLY=yes
# Set to 'yes' to mount various temporary state as either tmpfs

every time i play a file, vlc opens a new window for that file and does not close the already running file... I find it inconvenient to close the previous window in order to listen to a new song.
Is there any way to automatically close the previous file as soon as another is played?

In Lucid, I got rid of both gnome panels, and just now remembered that Rhythmbox opens to the top panel by default (at least for me), which means when I opened it I got nothing. How do I change this so that it just opens onto the desktop? I looked in edit/preferences of Rhythmbox but theres nothing in there.

I've just allowed Ghostery to update to version 2.3. Now every time I open my browser (Firefox), a Ghostery tab opens after my homepage tab opens. How do/can I prevent this (the opening of a Ghostery tab in Firefox) from happening?
Edit: what is popping up is a "Ghostery Configuration Walkthrough", a setup wizard. I've looked on the Ghostery forum; some are seeking ways to get around this wizard; but, so far, no answers. A Google search didn't produce anything either. So, I guess I'll run the wizard and see what happens; even though there are no settings that I would change.

When clicking on the Home Folder, K3B opens up. This also occurs on all icons under Places.
We have tried uninstalling K3B and the system is ok. But when you install K3B the problem comes back.

I have a win7 laptop and installed a dual-boot ubuntu 10.10. I'm using firefox & thunderbird, shared between windows and ubuntu (default profiles are on a fat32 disk that is shared between the two OSs). I can mount the fat32 disk as usual, but I can't get firefox OR thunderbird to start unless I start them from a terminal using 'sudo'. This is kinda strange. I used to do this all the time and never had a problem before.
I installed firefox, then did:
cd /etc/firefox
sudo firefox -P
in the profile manager, I set the profile file etc, but when I open firefox without doing 'sudo firefox', it hangs up and cannot find the profile. Why do I have to use 'sudo' to open firefox or thunderbird?
It works fine on my other laptop, but I've deleted & reinstalled ubuntu 3 times on this laptop and still have the same problem.
