Ubuntu :: Unable To Remove File Over Pendrive?
Jun 15, 2011
I have a Pen-drive which is affected by virus. I wish To format it, i tried to format it in GUI mode but i was unable to do so, then i tried to remove the files in pen drive by using rm command but an error msg that the file system has the read only permission so can't be deleted occur, then i tried to remove the read only permission by using chmod command but still the error that the file is read only permission was unable to change.

When I remove "safely" my usb pendrive all my hard drives and partitions get unmounted. It's not permanent I just have to close the session and start again but sometimes it's kinda annoying because I'm in the middle of a lot of work and have to close everything... and if I'm working with a file in that drive sometimes I lose it...

When I am using some pendrives, I am unable to write (copy) anything into them and end up with some warnings like "read only mode". I tried to change its permissions using chmod also, but it is of no use.

I purchased new Kingston Datatraveler 32GB Pendrive after i copied some of the files into that around 2GB.
But whenever iam trying to delete those content it is giving the following error. Readonly file system actually it is not.
I tried the same in windows and linux.
Is there any way by which i can delete the content or format the pendrive.
By using the command
Now I want to forcefully format the pendrive or is there any tool or utility which will help me to format the USB.

I need to use a pendrive with the Slackware 13.0 and I've tried a lot of things I've found at the internet but unfortunately they didn't work. It's not possible to use graphical interface because some reasons. So the problem need to be solved by command line.
When I use "lsusb" command, I can see the pendrive.
However, when I try these:
I got the following message: "Module usb-ohci not found" and "Module usbcore not found"
How can I deal with these problem? Because I guess without these module loaded it's not possible to mount the pendrive. Is it right?

When I ls -l /etc/passwd, -rw-r--r-- 1 root root /etc/passwd When I login as myself, and rm /etc/passwd, it asks: rm: remove write-protected file '/etc/passwd'? If I say yes, will it actually delete the passwd file?

I want to be able to check the contents of a text file for a specific string and remove it from the file from the command prompt. I would basically be searching through a number of files and if a specific string is found I would like it removed automatically. pretty much a find and replace, were the replace is nothing. any one got any ideas on how you would do this. I already have the search part sorted just need to be able to remove the string I don't want from the multiple files.

For a reason I cannot remember, some months ago I installed Rhythmbox 10.0.6 as an upgrade to the standard version in Karmic ( I think it was in an attempt to get Ipod working).Now that I have upgraded to Ubuntu 10.0.4 LTS with Rhythmbox 10.0.8 installed, I have a problem that when I try to start Rhythmbox, the old (unwanted) version starts, even though I have checked and the later version is installed.I am unable to find a way to remove 10.0.6 as in the terminal when I use commandremove --purge rhythmbox-0.12.6the message I get is "Couldn't find package rhythmbox-0.12.6" but I know it's there as the folder is in filesystem/usr/local/src/rhythmbox-0.12.6Can anybody suggest a way I can remove this old, unwanted version soI can use the new version with all its lovely benefits?

I'm unable to change startup programs. If I try and add or remove a program, any changes I have made seem to undo themselves. I suspect it might have something to do with being unable to save the session, but I really don't have a clue.
Just in case it makes a difference: I'm actually running Mint (Helena).

I attempted to install the CLI management tool for my Highpoint Rocket Raid card (rr62x) downloaded from this page: [URL] When I tried installing it, this is what happens:
Code:
# dpkg -i hptraidconf_3.5_amd64.deb
Selecting previously deselected package hptraidconf.
(Reading database ... 68853 files and directories currently installed.)
[code]....
How can I get this package removed? I was able to get a different management tool installed to configure my RAID so I don't need this one. My system appears to be working, but everytime I use apt-get to install something else, it shows the hptraidconf package as failed.

I created the following symbolic link:
Code:
ln -s /home/vichingo/.gvfs/"media on mybook" /media/mybook
this worked, only now I have a folder media on mybook within the mybook folder.
I wanted to remove this link, but when doing:
Code:
sudo rm /media/mybook/media on mybook
I get:
Code:
rm: cannot remove `/media/mybook/media': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove `on': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove `mybook': No such file or directory
for some reason I am either unable to remove the link or change the name of the folder to change the spaces into underscores.

I recently ran "sudo apt-get autoremove" in the terminal and I was given an error message citing the following:
I believe this is a result of a failed Banshee Media Player installation that left the specific package installed. I ended up removing Banshee entirely. I have tried using Synaptic Package Manager and Computer Janitor to remove the package, but neither has worked, both returned the error exit status 2 message. Computer stats are in my signature.
