Ubuntu :: System Volume Info Folder Keep Appearing?
Mar 17, 2011
I am a new user of Linux and it was just my luck that my Windows partition along with my WD 350GB external HDD got infected with a virus. My computer science buddies suspect that the virus in my HDD was in a folder called System Volume Information. Right now, my Windows partition's been removed so my netbook is 100% Linux. I also deleted said folder from my HDD. However, the System Volume Information folder in my HDD still keeps on appearing.
I read that the System Volume Information folder is a Windows folder so I'm wondering why it still keeps on appearing? Is this still the virus? I'm skeptical but right now, I really don't know.

I used Ubuntu 10.10 (64 bit) on IMac i7. As far as, I remember, after installing Pulse-Audio Equalizer, for each restart of the system, after login screen, system sets volume to maximum value. What can I do?

I have been pulling my hair out trying to find out why the Wine System Tray suddenly started appearing in its own little window when running Netmeter, cluttering up the desktop. I searched the web in vain, back many tears, most people saying they couldn't understand it when it happened to them.
Then I realized that the last thing I did was to stop Cairo Dock (the novelty had worn off!) and to move the Gnome Panel to the BOTTOM of the screen in place of Cairo. I suspected this was making the Wine System tray homeless.
So I moved the Gnome panel back to the TOP, restarted Ubuntu, stopped and restarted Netmeter and the Netmeter icon appeared back in the panel where it belonged.
Would I be correct in thinking that Wine System Tray will only stay in the panel if the panel is at the top of the screen?

I have two 10.04.1LTS command line servers running different overall jobs. One is an upgrade that started as 9.10 and was upgraded to 10.04LTS when it came out. It has since been upgraded to a 10.04.1LTS server. It's ssh login displays the following:
Code:
bob@b-desktp:~$ ssh admin@192.168.0.153
admin@192.168.0.153's password:
Linux server.nnbob.net 2.6.32-27-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 1 23:52:12 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
code....
No mail.Last login: Mon Dec 27 17:00:10 2010 from b-desktp.nnbob.net.Notice the nice system information presented there. How do I get the other (upgraded) server to do that too?

I've been trying to figure this out... What command does the system use to display this at login:
Quote:
System information as of Fri Oct 1 08:35:54 CDT 2010
System load: 0.28
Usage of /: 10.8% of 17.89GB
Memory usage: 51%
Swap usage: 3%
Processes: 112
Users logged in: 1
IP address for eth0: <ip.address>
It's not uname, free, top, df, uptime, etc... Also doesn't appear to be anything in /proc that I've found. Anyone know what it is? I want to grab its output as part of a script. I could use other commands I suppose, but this system info output is neat and concise.

I've just receive my new Dell desktop and I used CloneZilla to move everything from my old computer to the new one. I made an image of the disk of the old computer and restored this image on the new one.
For most of it, it worked well: it was relatively quick, and I have all my old settings except everythings is going quicker. But the new system is not entirely recognized: the processors are correctly identified, but I can't see the new RAM memory: hardinfo, free or cat /proc/meminfo all seem to refer to the memory of the old system, not the one that is on the new computer.Is there a way to force the system to reinspect the hardware and 'discover' its new ressources?

I am running Wheezy 7.9 and recently created a file, in xorg.conf.d, to set the monitor configuration because the EDID is not always read from the monitor. Everything works great but when the EDID is not read the monitor name, as shown in System Settings>Displays, shows as Unknown. I have the vendor info and modelname in the config file but they do not show in the Display GUI. Is there some variable that I can set in order to get a good monitor name displayed?
Probably should include some more information. I am using the Gnome Classic desktop and gdm manager. Here is the monitor conf file that I put in /etc/X11/xorg,conf.d
Code: Select allSection "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "VSC"
ModelName "VA912b"
DisplaySize 376 301
HorizSync 30.0 - 82.0
VertRefresh 50.0 - 85.0
[Code] ....

I remember screenshots in which a cli window is opened and in it kernel version, processor type, and other information is displayed along witnice little ascii art of the distribution logo. I have seen it for gentoo and debian, but forget the name.

I'm a linux newbie and scripting novice and I'm trying to pull auditing info and dump it into a file. I made some login changes so it would get audited but I don't want to have to sift through the log to see who the user was and what was done. This is what I have below here and I can't seem to get it to extract the info want using the event id. The "ausearch -a $10" from the script should get it from the 10th column but it's not working.If I can get this to work I would like to add additional aureport options.
#!/bin/bash
yyyy=`date "+%Y"`
mm=`date "+%m"`

I am currently creating a usb device driver consisting of mostly read and write commands. It can successfully read/write using the bulk endpoints, however reading from the interrupt endpoint causes a system crash.As the crash happens whilst writing to kern.log, the file doesn't get a chance to close, therefore done of my debug printk calls are saved. Also, I get know response from using the magic sysrq key.
Does anyone have an ideas on how I can get any system information about what's causing the crash, or possible causes of the crash. (Using a usb sniffer running on another pc, I can see that the packet is coming in from the interrupt endpoint).

I have been reading about rescue CD's but haven't found out whether I can make one using my currently running Centos(centos-release-5-4.el5.centos.1 ).I tried to use a Centos cd we have here and it looks fine till it asks where the 'tree' structure is located, when I select cd it ejects it and asks the same question again. Do I need to build a rescue cd containing directory info of my specific system?This is related to wanting to fsck my file system.

I've seen some desktop screengrabs which have included a transparent graphic (usually in the upper right corner of the screen) that displays current system information such as the hostname, kernel revision, CPU utilization, etc., that is constantly updated.Is that something that is available from Debian? I would like to install it to check it out, if it's available.

I've got rhythmbox playing and to minimize the effect of the mic input being routed to the computer's main output, I wanted to set the main system volume to be fairly low and turn up the level in rhythmbox. Pulseaudio won't let me do that. If I change the computer's main volume, it changes rhythm box's volume, and vice versa. I don't think I saw that behavior before, no idea what changed.
Am I completely misunderstanding something? I thought the point of an audio server is so that the client applications could produce the signals in their own way and send them through the server. Why do they have to interfere with each other's settings? Is there some preference to make it stop doing that? I looked in pavucontrol, device chooser and manager, don't see anything.

System76 laptop, 10.04, 320GB HDD, VMware with Win7 in one VM; want to use Clonezilla as am using it to back up (bare metal backup image) another older smaller dual-boot Ubuntu/XP machine. This System76 laptop is a work machine that I control; the Win7 VM only does a couple of things but they're necessary for work and I don't want to lose the configuration. The reason for the bare metal backup is so if I have to, I can restore and get back to work - something I've had to do on some previous occasions back when I used Windows. Data is no problem - I back that up separately on an hourly basis.
My question is what FS to use on the backup drive; for instance, for the dual-boot XP/Linux work machine I'm currently backing up, I'm using a 30GB external HDD formatted in FAT32. That's OK because 30GB is below the limit for FAT32. But for the newer laptop I'll need a much bigger backup partition. I chose FAT32 for the old one because I know everything on the computer being backed up, Windows & Linux both, is compatible with it. But what FS should I use to back up the new laptop, considering that I'll be backing up the Win7 VM as well as the main Linux part of the machine? I plan to use a backup partition of about 160GB. Could I format it NTFS and have it work with Ubuntu 10.04? Or, conversely, if I format it EXT, will it back up the Win7 VM OK?

I plugged in my USb drive into my computer yesterday and tried to delete a folder. I was unable to do so and got the following message
Cannot move file to trash, do you want to delete immediately? The file "my file" cannot be moved to the trash. Show Details Unable to create trashing info file: Read-only file system
So when I click on delete I get another error message:
Error while deleting.
There was an error deleting Case Study Database. Show Details Error removing file: Read-only file system
At this point I can only click on Skip, Skip All, or Cancel.
I have not changed anything on the stick recently so I dont know what is causing the problem.

How-To set the mixer volume level at system startup or login. A funny story that led up to this how-to first...
I made the obvious mistake of leaving my volume level set to nearly maximum. Of course, Ubuntu's default behavior is to restore the mixer to its last known state - a point of much irritation at that moment. This had been a problem in the past as well, and today was the last straw. So, I did some research, for quite some time I might add, and decided to be a good community member and share my findings. It seems that there are all sorts of opinions around the web. The dominant opinion is that a mixer should always be restored to its last known state, that this is all well and good, and why would you ever want it to work any other way. Lots of people suggested that the startup sound be disabled, which was not a terrible solution, but was still a work-around as it means that the next sound bite to be played is the alarming one.
Needless to say, I wanted to find out what I would call the "proper" way to set the mixer level at startup. As my laptop uses PulseAudio, and my office desktop uses ALSA audio, the methods were different. My focus was for PulseAudio as that was the original purpose. I note here that my method for ALSA is less detailed as it is not the default for Ubuntu audio these days. So, if you are using ALSA, you might have to be a little creative to make my ALSA note fit your needs. I have attached 2 files to this post, one for ALSA and one for PulseAudio.

After upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04, I realised, to my dismay, that the volume control had vanished from the panel. I can still control the volume via the buttons on my keyboard When I right-click on the panel and go to "and to panel" as other treads suggested, "Volume Control" is not on the list

The volume control in the Gnome panel system tray has disappeared from my wife's Ubuntu 10.04 system with the master volume set to zero.I was able to restore sound via System->Preferences->Sound master volume, but this is not particularly convienent. How do I restore the panel volume control? (the speaker icon on the panel, between the Network arrows and Chat/Mail setup icons).

I'am Using UBUNTU 10.10 version i upgraded my os then the volume control button on system tray and the previous "Indicator Applet" were gone. Now i added the volume control button by adding "Indicator Applet" from Add to Panel option at tray. But i also tried the following:
"Use Alt+F2 to open the Run Application app, paste gnome-volume-control-applet into the text field, and click the Run button" Then i had two volume control buttons after that i tried to remove the volume button which is came by the command line Not from the Indicator Applet Next i tried the following code in terminal to remove the volume button which was came from command line:
"sudo apt-get purge indicator-sound"
But the wrong thing is the volume button on Indicator Applet was gone I also add the indicator applet but the volume button doesn't coming back with the applet Now i want the Original Volume button along with the applet Not the other button.
