I get the error: Sorry, could not display all the contents of "trash": Operation not supported.Of course I know I can remove all the contents of the trash directly via ~/.local/share/Trash/ however, I'd rather have Ubuntu the work the way it was intended.I've tried opening Nautilus using the gksu command, but the problem persists.As per another post, I also tried a fsck on the partition, and no errors were returned.
View 5 RepliesopenSUSE 11.3 with GNOME. Every time I try to open up the trash, it gives me an "operation not supported" error, and starting nautilus from the terminal doesn't give me any output. I've tried removing the ~/.local/share/Trash and ~/.nautilus folders for both my main user and root and restarting nautilus, all to no avail.
Also, nothing in nautilus that starts with protocol:// works, like network or burn (or trash).
My only lead so far is that I messed up something in the glib runtime, since I've been working on a project that depends on a lot of GNOME and glib libraries, and have compiled a few from source. But since I can't find any sort of log from nautilus, I have no idea what the cause actually is.
On my system nearly all subfolders of my home-directory are on another hard drive. I included them via /etc/fstab as shown in the example below:
UUID=12c12565-ece4-4a22-b5c5-275aba1a3fd4 /media/data ext4 defaults 0 2
/media/data/archive /home/XXX/archive none bind 0 0
etc.
The directories
/home/<user_name>/.Trash
and
/root/.Trash
do not exist.
I've tried viewing hidden directories with nautilus and using "cd" in terminal. "locate" is equally useless.
When I move something to Trash it doesn't show the option of "Empty Trash". I can use "move to Trash" and it just moving there like some ordinary folder, but shift+del give me an option for deleting the files. Using OpenSUSE 11.3 32bit.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with a couple of folders in the Trash. If I click on the Trash icon, 2 foldersare there, and when I try to delete them, it just says "Failed to delete the item from the trash"
But when I go to .local/share/Trash there are no files there! Anyway, I tried using the command "sudo rm -rf .local/share/Trash", it shows no error, but the files continue when I click in the trash icon.
I've installed Ubuntu Server and set it up 3 weeks ago, it was working fine until today. Just recently, someone IM'd me @ jabber saying that none of services running on it work (http, ftp, svn, jabber, ssh). So I've checked stuff on my PC, and everything seemed to work well (at least for me). I've tried to see if http works via proxy, but it seemed like no. I've called my ISP, on their side everything looks fine, server was accessible via their machines too (well it's obvious). I asked them to see if other networks (TP, GTS Energis, Energis) could connect to it as well, the answer was - no. (I don't think it's firewall, since I didn't even had time to set it up...)

When I recently upgraded my desktop to Karmic, my postgresql 8.3 no longer starts. I've got data in 8.3 that I need, but now no way to access it. Karmic upgrades to Postgresql 8.4, but leaves 8.3. Problem is, I can't seem to start 8.3 no matter what I do (there's no error message. I even tried removing 8.4 entirely--without effect. When I try to start 8.3 (using command line or boot-up manager), there is no error message, either in system logs or in the postgresql log file. There is also no indication of an active postmaster in ps aux or anything listening to postgresql ports in nmap (for that matter, seems there's nothing listening even with 8.4 activated).
I could try to 'upgrade' my data cluster to 8.4. Never tried that before and am concerned about possibly losing data. Also, I made a load of tuning adjustments to 8.3 that I'd have to replicate with 8.4. I'd rather stay with 8.3, if possible. There are also two pieces of software, postgresql-common and postgresql-client-common, that presumably allow one to run two versions of postgresql simultaneously. Maybe this stuff is even the source of my start up problems. No idea where to learn how to use this software, and, esp., whether this would solve the 8.3 start problem.

I can not get my network printer to work because of this.

I have a Ubuntu - windows 7 dual boot (in two partitions of the same HDD) desktop PC for a few months. I was learning terminal commands and, although I don't think I made such a big mistake, but the fact is that the a very strange thing happenned: "Preferences" and "Administration" from System disappeared as it did also "Applications". After rebooting the same it remained the same. No big deal, I thought, because I haven't yet saved any important work on Ubuntu. So I reinstalled Ubuntu. Done that everything was nice until I booted Windows... Since then I counldn't start windows after GRUB due to:
Status: 0xc000000f
Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible."
Windows Live DVD Repair is useless. I've tried CHKDSK utilities, no result. Windows partition in Ubuntu's Disk Utility is OK but I can't access the files (all "broken links"), just can explore a few directories after which I find myself entering the same folder endlessly. I wanted to repair windows boot or at least recover some important files in Documents and I thought I had backup (but turns out that, for some reason that I'm still trying to understand, they aren't...).
I installed Ubuntu Server because I want to learn Linux and I want to learn about servers. I did a newbie tutorial and then shut down. When I booted up today, the files in my home directory were replaced by Access-your-private-data.desktop and readme.txt, but I have no idea why. I followed the instructions in readme.txt and typed ecryptfs-mount-private. It told me
INFO: Your private directory has been mounted.
INFO: To see this change in your current shell:
cd /home/rmob
But if I do ls /home/rmob, it still shows me Access-your-private-data.desktop and readme.txt instead of the files I created there yesterday. Every time I reboot, it tells me
keyctl_search: Required key not available
Perhaps try the interactive 'ecryptfs-mount-private'
If I try ecryptfs-mount-private again, it still tells me it has mounted it, but still just shows me those same two files. Googling about this tells me this means the directory got encrypted somehow. I tried typing touch ~/.ecryptfs/auto-mount which I found in this tutorial, but it didn't make a difference and I can't find any other solution anywhere.

I upgraded from Fedora 12 to 13 a couple of days ago, and it seemed to go off without a hitch, but I can no longer boot into Windows. Disk Utility reports that partition as Unknown. It still says HPFS/NTFS (0x07), but it shows no flags, and it doesn't show the file system type the way the others do. Is there a way for me to recover this with a minimal loss of data (preferably none)?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was looking for some way to make 'watch folder' and I found and installed inotify and incron. Explanations were perfect and everything seemed great. So I made test script and it worked as expected.
Now, bash script that was evoked by event by incron consisted this terrible line:
...
mv * /some/folder/
...
which I expected to be run from watched folder, but instead it is run on holy root /
Rest is tragedy: everything was moved to this folder and I can't access any command. Terminal was opened but it did not accept commands. I cd to '/some/folder/bin' then tried to execute command but no luck. I tried also Ctrl+Alt+F1 - same.
What can I do except reboot. Now what? Grub rescue failure prompt. I went in BIOS to make it boot from separate SATA HD with Windows 7, but it somehow isn't listed there. I can't think why. I tried from this Live CD to move folders to correct location, but it's Permission denied
[edit] Re-reading now, in terminal command 'cd' (change directory) was working, but sure not ls, mv and others. Maybe I could have done something, but probably not, network connection was lost, music stopped playing everything was vanishing...
I am running Karmic on my laptop, and I have three 1.5 TB external hard drives which I swap between frequently. My problem is that if I leave the drives in, and do not access them for a period of time, they become inaccessible, i.e. I will click on the icon on the desktop or in Places, and it will tell me there is no device mounted, even though I was using it fine just an hour before.
i have a feeling that it is because the USB drives spin down after a period, and Ubuntu detects them as being 'disconnected'. Would it help if I added individual entries for each in fstab?? Or do I need to adjust some settings elsewhere?
EDIT: If this information helps, the HD's are all Seagate Expansion drives, formatted to ext4.
I just realized that the "Documents" folder in my home directory has changed to a file which is a link to the /home/user/Documents and it is unaccessible. It does not (no longer) show in the "file browser" when I try to click it from "places" it says:
Error: Could not open location 'file:///home/user/Documents' No application is registered as handling this file When I list from the terminal (i.e. %ls -ltr ) it list the file (which was suppose to be the directory) as
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user 24 2010-11-01 18:20 Documents -> /home/user/Documents
NB. user in this case is my user name on the system, I am just using user for this forum. how to retrieve the information from the folder and remove the linked file to remain with the original folder
I'm nearly at the end of creating a shell script that automates changing network settings by prompting the user for desired settings, then applying them.
In the course of my development, I created temporary copies of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0_tmp1, for example) so as to not alter the original file. Little did I know that on boot the system would attempt to load each of these kinds of files and associate it with an ethernet connection, in this case eth0.
So..... now there are multiple copies in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts diretory that essentially have the same settings. They are..
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0_tmp1
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0_tmp2
Now when the system boots, it attempts to load them all. The boot doesn't appear to complete, and I can't ping, login, or otherwise access the system through convention routes (putty, etc.).
The easy solution would be to delete the tmp files and reboot. Now, how do I do that without being able to log in to the server. It's a VM by the way, if that makes a difference.
Is it possible to change my current nautilus window to have sudo capabilities,? e.g. to delete locked files. It may be lazy but if it takes a lot of navigation then it would be handy to somehow activate sudo from the open window without the terminal command (gksudo nautilus) which always begins at root.

Does anyone know how I can move the location bar in nautilus up by the toolbar, as shown by this pic:
http://i39.tinypic.com/2qdsyll.jpg
I'd rather not have to download the source of nautilus and edit the code / compile it myself.
By the way, a guy on Ubuntu Forums thought this was a mockup. It's not. It's the regular version of Nautilus, only I removed some toolbar buttons through the /usr/share/nautilus/ui xml files.
I just want the location bar next to the toolbar to conserve screen space, and be a bit more like Finder.
