Ubuntu :: Stuck In A Network And Installation Paradox

Feb 3, 2010

All I am trying to do is gain access to the internet and install wine. Here's the problem. Ubuntu won't recognize any drivers or networks. And I do mean none. This is what I get when I try to find drivers. [URL]

In order to gain a wireless network card driver and go into the network configuration to enable the driver, I figured I'd install Wine so I can use my network card driver CD to install the driver for it. But here's the thing, I can't get Wine because I have no access to the internet. And to gain access to the internet, I need wine. How on earth do I go about getting either? I'm stuck in limbo right now.

Ubuntu :: DOS App (Paradox) Won't Run In DOSEMU Under Lucid 10.04?

May 20, 2010

Poor old Paradox was fine (actually it was great!) in DOSEMU 1.4.0.1 (Feb 11, 2010) under Karmic, but refuses to start under Lucid. DOSEMU itself seems to be basically working ok. Paradox does fire up ok in DOSBOX, but that is not an ideal place for anything except games (no print etc). What might have changed? I'd really like to get this working again.

Fedora Installation :: F15 Network Install Stuck On "retrieving Installation Information"?

May 29, 2011

i'm doing a fresh network install of f15 from a usb stick. the installation has now been stuck on the "retrieving installation information for fedora 15 - i386" stage for over an hour. on previous releases this stage has only taken a few mins. i can see from my router that there have been thousands of packets sent and received from the laptop. i've searched all the normal places but can't find anyone else reporting this. does anyone know if this is a known bug (and if there is a fix) or if this stage takes significantly longer in f15 to any previous release ? cheers.

---------- Post added at 07:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

finally got to the next stage after nearly two hours. no idea why it took so long.

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Network Manager Stuck On 'setting Network Address' Then Continuously Prompts For Hex Or ASCII Key

May 28, 2011

When I attempt to connect to a wireless network, the network manager asks me for the network's password, then says 'setting network address' for 20 or so seconds, then asks me for some random Hex or ASCII key in the same type of window I put the password in (Secrets for Noel -- KDE Daemon). Since a key is already typed into the window, I press OK, which then causes the network manager to go back to 'setting network address', then the window pops up again and keeps repeating itself.

I'm running Opensuse 11.4 with KDE, and my driver is ath9k. I don't know much about linux so please don't tell me to 'recompile this' or 'change this setting' without explaining how to do it. Please help, I've been unable to connect to wireless in OpenSUSE for 2 weeks now.

Ubuntu :: Gigabit Network Connection Stuck At 100 Mb/s?

Aug 12, 2011

I have a machine with an MSI motherboard and gigabit ethernet. However, it only reports being connected at 100Mb/s. I have tried using ethtool to force the speed to gigabit but it doesn't seem to have any effect. I'm using Ubuntu 11.04. Does anyone know a way other than ethtool to set the network speed?

Debian :: Wired Network Connection Stuck On Connecting

Nov 3, 2015

As a random thought I purged the firmware-realtek package and rebooted. Ethernet works fine now??

Fresh Jessie installed this morning with KDE. Wired worked fine during installation and initial boot. Reboot after package installation and only wireless is working right now. I did install the realtek firmware as part of my normal package list.

This is /var/log/syslog when it stopped working, and hasn't reconnected since. Cable is fine as it was working perfectly with a live Ubuntu shortly before I installed the system with Debian.

Code: Select alllspci | grep Ethernet

OpenSUSE Network :: Wireless - Got Stuck On The Obtaining IP Address Part

Jan 7, 2010

I just installed openSUSE dual-boot with windows. Wireless works fine on windows. Only ethernet works on openSUSE. At first, it couldn't even find my wireless network. With my friend's help we experimented and tried everything to find the driver for my broadcam4312 driver.

Later, my friend some update from the official openSUSE peeps... Then, the wireless could my network. I entered in my password and then hoped for the best but then it got stuck on the Obtaining IP Adress part. I know I got the rite password.

OpenSUSE Network :: Pppoe - Stuck And Doesn't Connect To Eth0

Jun 30, 2010

i'm using opensuse 11.3 and can't connect to the internet, my eth0 interface (which would be my modem i suppose) is found and when i "activate" it with ifup eth0, it gets stuck waiting for data (says so in ifstatus). If i try with knetworkmanager it is also stuck and doesn't connect to eth0. If i try to make it connect at boot, it doesn't work either.

I think the problem might be that in windows xp my modem has a "limited connection" but i can connect with my pppoe password anyway, but opensuse won't let me connect until it finds eth0 is working correctly which it never will because of how the internet company configures the modems i think. I don't know with which command i could "force" the pppoe connection even without a good connection to the modem, maybe that would work. But on the other hand, with other distros i can connect just fine so i don't know really.

OpenSUSE Network :: Mount Command Gets Stuck With No Error Message?

Jun 25, 2011

I am using 11.3 on one machine and 11.2 on the other (a netbook). 11.4 won't install on either and 11.3 on the netbook fails to install as well.

I am using the same setup as I have always used when both systems ran 11.2 (details below) but now I can only mount a drive in one direction. In the other direction the mount command gets stuck with no error message until it eventually times out. I can ping and ssh the machines from each other without difficulty.

Even in the direction in which the mount apparently works (11.2 mounting a drive on the 11.3 machine) when I try to copy files across nothing actually happens.

exportfs -a was run successfully on the exporting machine, and nfsserver is running on both machines as does nfs client.

The exporting machine is 192.168.1.102 (eeelinux) and the other machine is 192.168.1.101 (nina).

Details:
The /etc/exports file on the exporting machine (192.168.1.102) looks like this:
eeelinux:/home/naima # more /etc/exports
# See the exports(5) manpage for a description of the syntax of this file.
# This file contains a list of all directories that are to be exported to
# other computers via NFS (Network File System).

Debian Configuration :: WiFi Connection Stuck At (Setting Network Address)

Oct 9, 2015

I have Debian 8.2 with KDE 4.14 and everything runs perfect, except for the internet connection. This problem happens randomly when I turn on my machine. Sometimes when the desktop loads, the connection is already settled.

But sometimes when the desktop loads, the wifi icon is still loading and keeps stuck at "setting network address". Since this problem happens randomly I really don't know what is happening here. My wifi chip is this:

Code: Select all01:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 130 (rev 34)

This is the problem:

I installed Debian with non-free firmware because of this chip.

Apr 26, 2011

when i tried to boot the system today, i got something like a dos screen with all kind of running commands, about USB input or something like that. i took screen shots with my N85 celphone, but i can't place them here since it's shown as black screen when i try to open them!

I'm doing it using a USB flash drive, like last time. i boot the system, choose "install ubuntu.....", then english language, after it the screen that check if I'm connected, plugged to power, and have enough space....in this window i click forward, mouse courser becomes like a circling thing and it keep going like this for hours! nothing is happening!i tried the option to use ubuntu without installation, and it's working, but same error as before happens if i try to install again! how can i solve this issue? like i said, everything worked great until this afternoon, and i made no changes at all

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 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 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 Installation :: Stuck At 'Ready When You Are'?

Feb 1, 2011

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 :: Stuck During Installation - Cannot Quit?

Mar 10, 2011

I'm installing Ubuntu and I'm stuck in the installation. I'm at the part where it say Who are you? and you type your username, nickname, password, etc. They all have checks, it says ready when you are, but I can't press forward. I can't do anything except go back which is to keyboard layout and location before that. No way to quit the installer or anything.

Ubuntu Installation :: 9.10 Stuck In Loop As No Net Connection?

Jan 22, 2010

I haven't come across this bit of 'elitism' before but it seems with this install one MUST have a working net connection. Why is this? How do people without net at all get to install Karmic Koala?

I am using the alternate install from a USB stick (UNetbootin) and I have to use a separate USB WiFi dongle (not the Wifi built into this Thinkpad T43). The installer does not recognise the difference, so consequently it fails to find the dongle and gets stuck in a loop between 'Net access failed' and 'Searching for a local mirror' - I don't understand why it needs a mirror at this stage anyway as I downloaded the correct and complete .iso

Major catch22 for me as I am attempting a fresh install due to the upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 having totally screwed up my system - no ALSA, App menu gone doo-lally, etc etc - far too much mess to sort out.

On top of that, the trackpoint button has stopped working altogether and no amount of Fn+F8 switching makes any difference. Hmm.

Edit: Trackpoint somehow got disabled in BIOS during above aborted install.

Ubuntu Installation :: Stuck At Loading Screen ?

I'm using ubuntu 9. For some weird reason, sometimes when i log in only the ubuntu logo shows up. It says "Grub loading" and then the logo appears, but the harddrive isn't accessed. After about 2 minutes, the logo disappears and the screen goes blank. I have to shut down the computer manually. The weird thing is, it only happens every so often..about every other boot up.

Ubuntu Installation :: Stuck With Background After Upgrade From 10.04 To 10.10

Oct 13, 2010

I was running 10.04 Netbook remix on my toshiba Nb305 in a dual boot with Windows 7 Pro 32bit on a 1.7ghz atom processor. I have grub 2 running and prior to the 10.10 upgrade i had run all the 10.04 updates. The 10.10 update appeared to have run smoothly and seems to boot ok but all it does is load my old background picture from before and none of my launcher bars or top status bar(sorry if these aren't proper ubuntu terms but the side netbook bar for app launching and standard top bar), mouse or keyboard.

I do know things are running in the back as my dropbox has shown that it is updated files in the back (also telling me wifi works and settings transfered). The only thing i can do is hit the computer's power off button and get the standard menu options in ubuntu for that but i have no control as i hve no mouse or keyboard control. Also note windows still launches fine from grub so that is not corrupted at all.

Ubuntu Installation :: Upgrading From 8.04 To 10.4 LTS - System Stuck

Apr 7, 2011

I got a really bad virus on my main computer and decided I should just install Ubuntu like I previously had installed on a laptop. Anyway, I used an old 7.10 install disk that I usually use and I upgraded from 7.10 to 8.4 LTS (that went off without a hitch), but when I upgraded from 8.4 LTS to 10.4LTS the install hung up at one point. The system was stuck 7 minutes from completion trying to set up the rsyslog. I left the dialog box up for 3 hours to no avail. I proceeded to reformat the drive to try again and it ended the same way. I currently have the system with the install dialog up and stopped at the setting up of the rsyslog.
Here is a picture of the install window:

I tried installing Ubuntu 9.10 using both Ubuntu Desktop CD and the Netbook Remix on a EEEPC 1005HA with an external CD drive.

In both cases I don't get any graphical interface during the installation. The CD is apparently installing everything silently, without letting me change anything on the way, and then it gets stuck.

The only screen I get is the first one, with the options to "try Ubuntu" or "install Ubuntu".
