Notice the red-colored band that appeared on the top of this webpage while I was surfing the web.What does this mean? I cut and pasted the band bigger so you can see it better and what it says. I checked for the file on /home but I found nothing. I feel this is threatening my Ubuntu.

I use Lucid x86_64. Lately I have been getting the following message referencing the mounting of my flash drive on start-up: "The disk drive for /media/UDISK is not ready yet or not present. Continue to wait; or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery." I hit skip and and Lucid continues to boot fine, and the flash drive is mounted and working properly after booting. How can I get rid of this message?

This puzzling message pops up during startup and forces a reboot:
Code:

If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem, then the superblock is corrupt. This was typed in not copied.
The laptop is running gentoo linux. Here is the fstab file and instead of having "boot" on its own partition I decided to have both "/" and "boot" in the same partition. This has never caused any problems before so I don't understand what the problem is now.

Fedora 12 Gnome 2.28
I use Debian Lenny on desktop. On bootup I get this strange message
Code:
Question one: what is hub 2-0:1.0? A utility? A library? A module?
Queston two: what does "enumerate" mean in this context?
Question three: I can't figure out what "port" is meant: a networking port something on the motherboard one of several I/O port/connector/sockets on the back of the computer? (Hope you know what I mean--- you stick USB connectors into them to connect your computer to a USB device, such as a USB mouse.) the one and only networking port/connector/socket on the back of the computer.
Possibly relevant: I sometimes but not always have a USB cable connecting my printer to one of the USB ports/connectors on the back of the computer at boot time. But the message always refers to "port 1", never 2,3,4. due to lack of options for getting on the Net, I use an Actiontek router which demands to be given 192.168.0.1 which would otherwise be taken by my computer, which instead gets 192.168.0.2. (Grasping at straws...)
I recently installed Antix Mepis 8M on Dell Latitude D410 laptop. Everything is fine except that at boot I get the following weird message: pci 0000:00:1e.0: BAR 7: can't allocate I/O resource [0x10000-0xffff]
It doesn't noticeably slow down the boot and everything works fine once running, but I'm curious to know what it might be and whether it could possibly represent trouble in the future.I googled it and found this: http:[url].....But there is no associated solution, and other results are largely reposts of this query.

I would like to know if there's a way of using FileZilla or another FTP client without having a web page. My intention is to have my files on a server and download them form time to time from different computers using FileZilla's portable version. It would also serve as a Back-up copy of 'em. If there's no way of doing that, I can get a subdomain from, that is free and without a file limit?

My web-site's pages appears to be fine when i open in any browser (including IE, Firefox, Chrome) in windows..

I have recently put together a website for my local club using Kompozer, Filezilla, and other open-source apps:
[URL]
Very simple; no CSS or frames, just tables. My question is this: How do I get the webpage to appear uniform on all displays? When I work on it on my own machine all is looking good, everything nice. But when I go to the club and check on one of their boxes or use a computer somewhere else, things are bent out of shape; the layout is too wide or thin, things are oversized or not, the main heading is on two lines instead of one. A real dog's breakfast.
I learn as I go but one thing I'm figuring is that I should scale my images in Gimp to the desired size rather than drag them to size in Kompozer.
I have looked for an answer to this, tried a few things adding various code to the page, but nothing so far seems to be working. I'm sure this is simple fix but I just haven't stumbled over it yet.
I recently saved a large number of web pages from a website on my computer and all of them contains images.

I am not sure how to extract images from webpage in batch. google search dint turn up anything.. is there lika a tool or something for the job or should a script be written for it?

I have recently upgraded to the new ubuntu 11.04 but am having problems with the internet. Often When I try to access a website it takes a long time (5-10 minutes) to load even google, and sometimes I just get the following error message:
This web page is not available. The server at google.com can't be found because the DNS lookup failed. DNS is the web service that translates a website's name to its Internet address. This error is most often caused by having no connection to the Internet or a misconfigured network. It can also be caused by an unresponsive DNS server or a firewall preventing Chromium from accessing the network.
Here are some suggestions:
- Reload this web page later.
- Check your Internet connection. Reboot any routers, modems or other network devices that you may be using.
- Check your DNS settings. Contact your network administrator if you're not sure what this means.
- Try disabling DNS prefetching by following these steps: Go to Spanner menu > Preferences > Under the Bonnet and deselect "Use DNS pre-fetching to improve page load performance".
- Try adding Chromium as a permitted programme in your firewall or antivirus software's settings. - If it is already a permitted programme, try deleting it from the list of permitted programmes and adding it again.
- If you use a proxy server, check your proxy settings or check with your network administrator to make sure that the proxy server is working.
- If you don't believe that you should be using a proxy server, try the following steps: Go to Spanner menu > Options > Under the Hood > Change proxy settings and make sure that your configuration is set to "no proxy" or "direct".
Error 105 (net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED): Unable to resolve the server's DNS address.
I have tried to access the internet using Chrome, Firefox, Konqueror, on the Untiy Desktop, and the Classic Desktop. I've checked my Proxy settings in Chrome (My main browser) and its set to direct internet connection. I've Disabled the UFW. I've edited the resolv.conf which initially showed:
Code:
# Generated by NetworkManager
domain HG532.com
search HG532.com
nameserver 10.0.0.1
and edited it to:
Code:
# Generated by NetworkManager
domain 10.0.0.1
search 10.0.0.1
nameserver 10.0.0.1
and even tried the Google DNS server:
Code:
# Generated by NetworkManager
domain 8.8.8.8
search 8.8.8.8
nameserver 10.0.0.1
But nothing works. It seems like When I initially log on to the internet it runs fine, but over the coarse of 10 minutes the page loading times go down then eventually I just get the above error message. There are other computers here running windows which connect through the same wireless fine.
I'm using firefox and I'm trying to block [URL] by ading the line 127.0.0.1 [URL] in /etc/hosts but it don't work. I get this error message in terminal;

That's what I have. It shows the box where the video should be - but doesn't play it, just asks to save. Not sure if it's something with my browser plugins... or my code on my page... ? Tried with FireFox and Rekonq - same results. Tried with many different embed codes as well - all same results.
