I get a message on boot that I have too many connections. so I looked ate the dmesg file but I have no idea what is going on. My system is a i7-960 cpu on a saber tooth x58 asus motherboard, with 12 GB of DDR3 (4GB per channel) running the 64 bit version of maverick Ubuntu.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it fair to say that connLimit and hashlimit are very similiar on Linux i.e. while hashlimit caters to limits for groups of ports, they both set the connection rate limit per host? How in IPTables, do I configure a policy that limits connections on a port that encapsulates the total sum of all connections from all hosts? i.e. I do not want to allow more than 6000conn/minute for port range that is the sum of all connecting hosts?

Now I can not set because the network connection to the Internet Connection is inactive. I mention that before the update was functional internet connection.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAfter asking on both this forum and the Fedora forum, I felt it was safe enough to install a copy of Fedora on my working-well openSUSE drive. I have a 1 TB drive, partitioned as follows:
I did an install of Fedora 13, was VERY careful to set up the installer to put it's files in the partitions I wanted, although I did let it mark the partition as active, feeling it may have to boot during the installation process.
I had grub installed in the root of the partition rather than the MBR for both systems.
When Fedora finished installing, I rebooted the system only to find that it wouldn't. I got the dreaded "No Boot Device" message.
So, I started the 5 hour process of booting with the parted magic disk, booting with a Gentoo live disk (only one around), monkeying with the install parts of the openSUSE and Fedora disks, swapping drives to Windows to download openSUSE Live CDs (yes, both) and searching the forums and various other web sites for some poor bloke who did the same stupid whatever it was I did, and finally, as I was using fdisk on the Gnome Live CD, I noticed the warning message stating that fdisk would not work on a drive that was partitioned with the GPD format.
Notice that I have 5 partitions? That is not a typo on my part, I used the GPD format when I set it up so I could do what I did without using "imitation" partitions.
When I used parted (the command line editor on the Gnome Live CD) to change the active partition, everything started working again! Well, at least I can boot the openSUSE system, the most important thing.
It is my suspicion that the Fedora install uses fdisk to do it's work, and fdisk just mucks up a GPD formatted disk. Not the information, just the part of the drive that holds the partition table. Perhaps just the flags section. I don't know enough to say with any certainty.
I didn't change the drives parameters during the installation of Fedora, so I don't know of it even offers the GPD partitioning option. If not, I can understand how this sort of thing could happen.
Still....So now all I have to do is make the grub menu, the one installed with openSUSE, boot the Fedora installation on the next partition. Seems simple enough.

I keep getting this error message pop-up on rare occasions when I boot into Ubuntu 10.10. I don't know what it means or what it's for. I tend to hit "Don't delete" and then restart the computer. It only really crops up once every 30 or so boots of Ubuntu, or if I've done a lot of updates through the update manager. Oh yes, whenever this message appears, the Rubbish Bin vanishes from the bottom right. Everything tends to be fine after the restart.

Rather than strip the hard drive and go with Ubuntu exclusively, I left W7 on and set up Ubuntu 10.04 as a dual boot installation. All was well for a month or more and now suddenly W7 won't boot. The Windows error message I get is The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible I've purged and reinstalled Grub2 several times with no luck. Also tried Windows fixmbr which allowed W7 to boot but made Ubuntu inaccessible. Below is the output of the boot_info_script.

I've got a 200GB hard drive, using an ECS SiS 755 A2 motherboard w/1.1b BIOS.
I've just recently installed Debian on my laptop and I'm currently having problems with an occasional white flickering at the top of my screen.
I want to rule out whether this is a driver issue since at boot, just before the GUI pops up, I get a handful of error messages complaining about missing firmware.
So my first problem is rather simple: I'd like to actually read these messages in full but I cannot find them in /var/log/syslog or /var/log/dmesg.
I upgraded from f13 to f14 and now i get this message after booting up. I am at a loss as to what to do to clear it.

I have just installed Lucid Lynx as after a live run of it I thought it was about time to upgrade. Everything ran smoothly in the live version so I backed up my files and installed it. When I went to boot I get this -
Grub loading, please wait ...
Error 2
The strange thing is it seems to be specific to the computer. I have an older, lower spaced desktop, computer that I tried the hard drive in and it worked fine. Problem is its too low spaced for what I want so it seems the install went ok but its something with the computer? How I would be able to boot into the install?
I installed 10.04, and now i cant get back to windows. I have Ubuntu on one hard drive and windows on the other one. When i try to boot up, unless i go to the boot menu and select the hard drive with Ubuntu on it i get the message boot-mgr is missing, press Ctr - Alt - Del to restart.

While installing linux, i got error message when i tried to create LV for /boot... i checked with my friends n they told me that /boot should be a standard partition... why is that, i asked them but they had no good explanation for it... could someone please explain me why do we create standard partition for /boot, why can't i use LV??? also i heard that its good practice to create separate partitions (LV or standard) for /, /home, swap & other major directories instead of 1 partition for all these.

I pulled down a distro of Fedora 14 and am trying to install it on an older Dell 4400 Dimension. The box has a 1.6GHz Pentium 4 and 1G of RAM. I followed the instructions on the Fedora Project site to burn an .iso image to CD and then set the BIOS to boot from the CD. It boots, sorta, goes through the first screen or two and then pops a blue box saying "Please check pc display settings" and at that point I can't tell what is happening behind the kimono.

First bootup after install always fails (after a few messages are displayed) with my monitor showing an "out of range" message.I know exactly what to fix (sync values in xorg.conf) and what values to enter there, but what I can't figure out is, how to get to a stupid prompt! Or a smart one for that matter.Also, I do get a message (before the "out of range" message) from CentOS, telling me to "press I for interactive startup" - but all that does is print as many "I" on the screen as I press. And did they really mean "I" and not "i" for this?
I hear great things about CentOS and if you can help with this silly question - How to get to a prompt - as easy as it probably is for you all, it would help me a lot.

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.

My Redhat 5.3 desktop running on an AMD 64 system was not receiving the updates from rhn until a few days ago when it started checking in and downloading updates. The updates crashed generating bug reports. I tried running yum-complete-transaction command, it aborted also. I found a knowledge base article with instructions on how to rebuild the rpm database which I followed. After completing the procedure I tried to reboot. The system gets to the logon screen and then I get the message Authentication Failed and the system locks up. The commands I ran are:
rm /var/lib/rpm/__db*
rpm -rebuilddb
yum clean all
I am also seeing a message during boot up that the module libxml2 is missing and when I try to download the package from rhn yum cannot find the server.
How do I stop the message asking me to select a vga setting on every boot or press enter or space to see the various settings available? running slackware 13.1 on an aspire one netbook

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am kinda new to Linux but because I started a linux-course I decided to install it on my desktop. Before I used Virtual Box or VMware so it was pretty straightforward but now I have a problem with booting into Win7. I decided to install Debian along with my Win7. From a hardware perspective the things are like this, I have 3 HDD, 2 on a RAID0 and the third will be the one with Linux. On the RAID0 matrix I installed Win7 first, all ok there.
Then I started installing Debian. I followed the installation wizard, I partitioned the 3rd HDD and selected it as the drive for Linux. Then after I installed Linux and rebooted I only saw Debian in the GRUBs boot options, no sign of Win7. I think it has to do with the RAID0 matrix which "houses" Win7. I disconnected the 3rd HDD, and now when I try to boot no sign of the Win7 bootloader thou the RAID0 is ok. The only message I get is "insert boot disk".
