Ubuntu :: What Packages Were Removed By The Last 'sudo Apt-get Autoremove' Command

Jun 12, 2011

Is there any way to find out what packages were removed by the last 'sudo apt-get autoremove' command? Is that info in a log somewhere? I am setting up a recently installed minimal install and my last autoremove seemed to remove some dependencies which has in turn killed my network connections, wired and wireless.

Ubuntu :: Installing Packages Without Sudo Access?

Nov 24, 2010

I do a lot of testing and developing on an Ubuntu machine at my university, and I don't have sudo access to the machine. It hasn't been a problem so far because the tools I've needed have been installed.

However, I have to build OpenCV, which has a lot of dependencies, some of which (notably, libbz2-dev) aren't installed.

I have access to localtmp on the local drive, and of course my own home folder (which is on NFS). Is there a way for me to install a local version of the tools I need using apt-get without sudo access? If not, is there another way to install them? I've been using CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/localtmp for some builds, but I'm not sure if this is the way to go, or if there is a better way.

tl;dr Is there a way to install applications locally without the ability to sudo?

Ubuntu :: Use Sudo Apt-get Autoremove Will Remove All The Mentioned Packages Including Freemat

Aug 21, 2010

From the terminal I got this message: The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libqt4-opengl freemat freemat-help libgfortran3 libsdl-ttf2.0-0 libmikmod2 libqt4-svg libblas3gf libamd2.2.0 libsdl-mixer1.2 libumfpack5.4.0 freemat-data libsmpeg0 Ok, what I really don't understand is that why is it that Freemat, my most important software, is listed as "no longer required"? Of course if I use sudo apt-get autoremove will remove all the mentioned packages including Freemat.

Ubuntu :: Su Command Won't Work, But Sudo Will?

Oct 16, 2010

I was attempting to install the fglrx driver on my new ubuntu insallation, following a guide I found from google. At one point it says I need to login as super user, so I tried and no matter how many times I try it just keeps saying authentication failed. I even tried typing in my password with 1 finger, multiple times, every single time, authentication failed. So I decided to try the sudo command with fdisk -l, worked flawlessly. Tried the su command again, authentication failed, I have no idea what in heck is causing this but it just won't stop happening.

Ubuntu :: Sudo Command Does Not Shut Computer Down

Sep 8, 2010

Code:
sudo shutdown now
command does not shut the computer down

When the command is typed a, all the programs are closed and proceeds to shut down. But after some time, screen gets stuck(plymouth animation stops moving). But the computer is still working. Fan is running , Power LED is on. LED showing hard disk usage blinks at equal time interval. There is no problem in shutting down using the button on panel. So I suppose it is not a hardware problem. More over there is no problem in windows. The graphics card is Nvidia Geforce 7300GS. I am using proprietary Nvidia driver.

General :: Usage Of Sudo Command In Ubuntu And Red Hat?

Apr 18, 2010

In Red Hat, suppose if root user wishes to give a privilege to run the fdisk command to a user named sam.And he makes appropriate configuration changes in /etc/sudoers file. Now when sam wishes to run the fdisk command, then he has to issue:

Code:
[sam@system43~]$sudo /sbin/fdisk -l
Password: But in ubuntu, after the same configuration being done, what sam needs to do is:
Code:
[sam@somesystem43~]$sudo fdisk -l
Password: ***

That means, in ubuntu the user need not type the full path of the command. I wish to know how can I make red hat system work like ubuntu as far as the sudo usage is concerned.

Ubuntu :: Add User Permission To Use Sudo In Command Line?

Oct 20, 2010

I have a problem about user permission, I just destroy my user...So, I create a new one. But I can't have the permission to use "sudo" or to install program... So, I cannot do a lot of thing in my computer. The logical solution is to boot in failsafe mode and access to the root terminal, but, I don't know how to change the permission to allow me to use sudo.
