Updated two SSH packages today and now SSHd wont start. Worked fine an hour ago, and I'm still logged onto the server via pre-existing SSH sessions, but now I obviously cannot start new ones.
Code:
paine@pandora:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
* /dev/null is not a character device!
paine@pandora:~$
have search the web for answer and there are some suggestion. tried those suggestion but was not successful.appreciate if any one can help to resolve this? I'm running fedora 11 and using the NXserver for remote access

I installed all recommended updates as suggested by the update manager, after installing was asked to restart. During this restart I get the error message "udevadmin trigger is not permitted while udev is unconfigured. After this I am left with a BusyBox v1.13.3 [...] (initramfs)_
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I start the X server, my touchpad works for about 5-6 seconds (I'm moving it around to test). After the X server fully loads (and all the software loads in, I presume), the touchpad mouse promptly stops working. I can no longer use the GUI because the mouse is dead.
This seems to be a software bug after the latest update. Is there any way I can regress to a previous version? Perhaps uninstall the recently updated software?

I think a recent update has broken 2 of the 3 systems that I've been putting together. To test out the theory I want to roll libpam-modules back to version 1.1.1-2ubuntu2 from 1.1.1-2ubuntu5 that was recently released on 1 of the 2 that got updated and see if it resolves the issue that I'm seeing with not being able to log into the OMSA webserver. How do I go about reverting to the earlier version?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've done my due diligence, but I'm tired and frustrated so my googlefu probably isn't up to par at the moment! Been running Ubuntu as my main OS for about a year now, and have been really happy with it. So far I've been able to find solutions to every problem I've had, but I think this one's got me a bit out of my depth. I REALLY don't want to have to reinstall, I'm currently running Lucid as the only OS on this machine, and about an hour ago I installed the most recent updates as provided by the update manager. On reboot, it stopped at a GRUB command line.
I've managed to boot back into Ubuntu by manually loading the linux module etc. and booting. From there I've tried updating grub, and reinstalling grub (No errors on reinstall) but nothing persists. I've taken a quick look at the grub.cfg, but TBH I'm not sure what I'm looking for! [edit] FWIW, I have GRUB 1.981ubuntu7 installed
I recently added a repository to my package manager to allow me an installation of firefox 4.0. This worked, and when I ran a recent update, my package manager also updated my firefox 3.6 to a nightly build, as well as my thunderbird email application. What's worse is, it changed around all my icons and names, so now it uses the code name of the version (Namaroka, instead of firefox...) I'm sure this is great for developers, but I just want it to be normal. how I can step back with the update I did?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been running ubuntu on multiple computers for about 8 months now, installed on one computer as it's only OS (XP ran too slowly), and as a side OS for two others, one running XP and one running 7.The problem is, Ubuntu recently stopped booting on my Windows 7 computer. The option shows at start-up, but when I select it, the computer restarts back to the boot menu. I had recently installed an update from Update Manager that required a Restart, so when I restarted it to finish installing I left it to have dinner and it restarted into windows.About a day later, I wanted to boot ubuntu again, but my computer simply restarted, and has been doing this since (it's been about 3 days). I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but the last thing I installed before the update was a 1st person shooter game, I can't remember the name, but the icon was a "ka" symbol in katakana.

Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart job, you may also use the restart utility, e.g. restart ssh code...
Today, I installed the recent kernel security update (i.e. 2.6.32-24-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP). After a reboot, the sound is gone.
From my user account:
mpc@awd:~$ alsamixer

Same problem with "aumix".
However, the commands "sudo alsamixer" and "sudo aumix" seem to work (but still no sound).
"lsmod | grep snd" will give

At some point in the last week, my webcam on 10.10 64bit mysteriously stopped working. The OS no longer recognises it as being there. It's an internal cam on a Clevo laptop and before this it's always worked perfectly.
Is there a way I can force the OS to recognise it? Or find out what broke it and fix it?
After a recent update a week back or so, the nautilus is crashing very often.I have noticed it mostly happens while closing a nautilus window or maybe sometimes while trying rename a folder, etc.The kernel log says:Feb 11 12:25:58 PC kernel: [113047.344460] nautilus[31254]: segfault at 506 ip 00cba0d0 sp bfb895e0 4 in libgobject-.0.so.0.2600.0[c91000+40000]The nautilus is restarted after the crash.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have this strange problem on ubuntu 10.04 64 bit, that when running update-grub, it will only put the oldest kernel into the grub menu, despite the fact that I have recent kernels around as well.
in particular:
Code:
# update-grub
Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub
Searching for default file ... found: /boot/grub/default
Testing for an existing GRUB menu.lst file ... found: /boot/grub/menu.lst

I'd like to see the most recent kernels in the grub menu, with the most recent being on top.
After recent upgrade which contained the newer kernel ( 2.6.35-30-generic). I've started to experience problems with sound and video in programs - deadbeef and totem. Both of them dont play any sounds and video in totem is skipping every 3-4 seconds (the same applies to flash videos in browser).
As I run deadbeef from the command line I dont get any significant information. I run ubuntu 10.10 amd 64. I tried to reinstal gstreamer my programs and codecs with no luck.
I recently installed Fedora 13 on VMware 7 environment without X window. sshd did work fine, but when I tried to put it into xinetd, it doesn't work any more. Here is what I have done so far :
I stopped sshd. #service sshd stop
and I configured xinetd.conf like below.
Quote:
#
# This is the master xinetd configuration file. Settings in the
# default section will be inherited by all service configurations
# unless explicitly overridden in the service configuration. See
# xinetd.conf in the man pages for a more detailed explanation of
# these attributes.
[Code]....
I don't know what I did wrong with them. I configured xinetd.conf, and I made service configuration file 'ssh' in /etc/xinetd.d, and I restarted xinetd.
What am I supposed to do to make a life on my sshd within xinetd ?
I have an EEE 1000 that successfully connected to WPA networks until yesterday. I tried re-installing the RT2860 drivers that had been previously modified and did not have success.
Additionally, I just installed 10.04 on a Gateway laptop that's a few years old. It immediately connected to the WPA network and I ran the updater. Lo and behold, after updating it no longer connects to the network.
This sux cause im new to ubuntu and it was working great on my laptop but after a recent update the wireless (wifi) connection just dies after 1 minute. The connection is still active, the icon shows full signal, nothing seems wrong at all, but there is no internet communication at all.
If I disconnect and reconnect I get proper internet comms for another minute, then it goes dead again!

RE: Ubuntu Desktop 10.10 64bit Updates from 2-3 days ago.
Since then, Firefox starts and runs fine the first time. Close it down and later try to restart, error says that Firefox is already using that profile and will need to quit it before proceeding.
System Monitor then shows that firefox and firefox-bin are still loaded (although nothing in the gnome app tray at bottom of screen). Jill those 2 processes and Firefox loads normally.
Should I wait this out and see if later updates cure this? Reinstall Firefox? Submit a report to launchpad?
My mythbuntu 10.10 system including its lirc managed remote control has been working fine.I've recently done some updates (see below) and now the remote doesn't work correctly (only some of its keys seem to work). I suspect that lirc is no longer managing the remote and now instead the remote is now being treated like a keyboard.How do I get lirc managing my remote control correctly again,Before the updates the kernel was:
Code:
$ uname -a
Linux pvr 2.6.35-28-generic-pae #50-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 18 20:43:15 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux

The most recent kernel update, to version 2.6.38-11 has been a horror. It hangs on boot up. Sometimes I can get to the log in screen, then it hangs there as well. However, after 3-5 reboots (which is absolutely annoying to do when I just want to use my computer), it sometimes loads up finally. However, if I go to older Linux version in the Grub menu, then I can select 2.6.38-10 and it runs just fine.
So I am looking for a way to fix this problem, whether it be removing the most recent kernel update, or making 2.6.38-10 boot up by default. I noticed that the kernels are listed in the synaptic package manager, but I am afraid to remove the most recent one via synaptic. Is it as simple as removing the Linux version and headers I don't want, or are there other things I need to do in order to make 2.6.38-10 my default kernel at start-up?
install Ubuntu inside Windows in the first place, thinking that would be the easiest way to get him into Ubuntu. Now, I can't figure out how to repair his grub loader without killing his Windows XP installation.
I'm a Windows guy (have to be, I'm a gamer), so my knowledge of Ubuntu is limited to whatever I can do in the GUI. The command line is beyond me at the moment ('cause it ain't DOS). More so because I have an identical installation to his system (I built both), and I'm wondering if this is about to happen to me too.
I have been dsitro skipping around. Reinstalling the new versions every six months, only to find more major drawbacks recently with ubuntu. I fixed a major problem with adobe flash being majorly slow on my hardware by following the debian flash guide, what a life saver. I now love my linux system, flash was always a pain, made me appreciate windows. I thought I might try a rolling release distro (PCLinuxos is pretty good but I couldn't install office in wine). I heard about the speed of debian - the mother of all distros. But when I tried debian stable, I had hard crashes so I decided to try Wheezy instead.
Now I seem to be sitting pretty. With one exception, the latest 0.41 update of the AWN window manager breaks the awn applets. I have locked the version at 0.4 by going back to the stable branch that worked. But I would rather not have to check to see if the next updates is going to break them again. There were some more updates recently to awn-applets not sure if they fixed this problem. Why was this update released in the first place, when it breaks down awn almost completely ? without the applets it's almost useless. It's probably something simple like changing the directory but still annoying.
The girlfriend did an update a few nights ago. Besides removing her NVidia drivers, it also installed kernel version 2.6.27.29-170.2.78.fc10.i686.
That kernel was causing problems. Now it won't boot at all. How do we remove that kernel altogether?
If we remove it, would simply doing another update from the previous (still working) kernel just try to reinstall that bad kernel?
Yesterday I ran an update on my Acer Aspire One, which I operate under Fedora11. Amongst the updates was also an update for Qjackctl and the jack audio connection kit. After the update I could not start Qjackctl anymore and all my possibilities with rosegarden and my USB keyboard and fluidsynth were gone. I restored to the system before update ran the update again excluding the two packages concerning jack. Perfect, it works again. So it seems that there is a bug inbedded in the update. By the way, I am quite happy with Qjackctl as the connection tool between my various music making options, which are not very fancy, but I enjoy them. Despite comments in other parts of this forum Qjackctl works very well on the Atom based AAO. I have a kind of protocol of the failure of qjackctl and what I did. I can make that available if necessary
