Ubuntu Community, I have just switched to ubuntu 9.04, from openSuse.
Am programming with bluetooth. I get the following error. code...
I have kubuntu 9.04 installed in my computer and I am normally using a Gnome environment desktop (though I get back to KDE or Xfce if I have any troubles with Gnome)
This afternoon I restarted my computer and since ever I am unable to log in. I press the on button, get to the partition page and select Ubuntu 9.04 and the computer shows the login page
however, once I type in my password, the computer tries to log in but then brings me back to the login page asking for the password again. I have tried to login as Xfce, Gnome, KDE, Failsafe mode and the result is the same. The only way to get through is to login through the terminal, but then I am unable to get back to the graphical mode.
I recently installed Deluge 1.2.0 from the following PPA:[URL]I using this on two different Linux computers. One is running Linux Mint 8 and the other is running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10. The first time on either computer when I enable WebUI in the Deluge GUI it works fine. However if I ever disable it in plugins section I am subsequently unable to re-enable it (doesn't appear in the side panel again). Rebooting or reinstalling Deluge seems to have no effect.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have installed a web server on my local network. Everything is well configured and web pages are shown correctly from Internet (outside the local network) using the domain or the public IP.The issue is if I try to see that web pages (using the domain or the public IP) from inside the local network. In that case the router config page (192.168.1.1) is shown instead of the web pages.From inside the local network I'm only able to see the web pages using the internal IP address (192.168.1.XX).

When new messages come into the inbox, I get a message "Unable to retrieve message" in the lower screenI can work around it by clicking on the first folder under Inbox and then back to Inbox. When I click to the subfolder I have a message at the bottom that says "Error while Storing folder 'Inbox'".It would be nice if it simply worked the first time. It feels like it thinks there are two or more folders that might be "Inbox".

It's supposed to redirect everything except the listed directories to index.php, which is used as a front controller. However, if I type in [URL] <any other page> I get a 404 error.
my local box is centos 5.5 running gnome.
I have a eucalyptus instance (vm) running an older version of centos (5.3?). As a vm it has no graphical display. I'd like to run a graphical app there so that it displays back on my local machine.
Used xhost locally and it shows the remote IP (eucalyptus instance) as enabled. On the remote side (eucalyptus instance) I set DISPLAY with:
export DISPLAY xx.xx.xx.xx:0.0
where xx.xx.xx.xx is my local ip address. Oh, I did install X in the vm instance (yum groupinstall "X Window System"). X is installed but not running there (does the point of origin of the x app need to have X running as well - and what does this mean in a vm which is a non-graphicla environment?).
Anyway, I try to run (from remote to local) xclock and get the typical
Error: Can't open display.
The first time I started F15 the following notice appeared (approx.: I have translated it from spanish):Quote:Unfortunately GNOME 3 failed on having started and it is now in alternative mode. It probably signifies that your system (graphic hardware or controller) is not capable of executing GNOME 3 complete.Computer data: AMD Athlon XP 2400+ 2,01GHz; 1.5 GB RAM; ATI Radeon 9200SE. Fedora 15.I have checked in several pages of the net that Radeon 9200SE is able to support 3D.I should like to modify the Open Source Xorg to enable the 3D mode (not to install the proprietary drivers, this will come later if there is not another solution), but I don't find the /etc/X11/xorg.conf. There is the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d

I am running wireshark on my laptop. It is only showing me the packets addressed to and from it, and broadcast packets. I am running it in promiscuas mode, and in iwconfig set the interface to mode monitor. However it can still not see packets from my other laptop. They are in the same room, both wirelessly connected to the same network.

Then i logged in and opened my programs and it didn't have the gtk theme enabled that i have when I start my ubuntu in GNOME session mode. How do i enable gtk themes there so everything looks pretty again? I like starting from xterm because it's very fast..
This is how it looks, notice the ugly buttons and everything... the gtk theme is not loaded and i don't know how to enable it..

And here i will show you how it should look and how it normally looks with the gtk theme loaded up... basically i would like it to look like this even when i start it from xterm..

Really, I would like to know how i can enable gtk themes when I run my computer in xterm session mode. Is there another application that i have to run? I don't want to run the full GNOME environment, i really don't.
I am running Ubuntu 9.10 on VMware Player and wish to access my Windows files inside Ubuntu. When I go to Place -> Network there exists a folder called Windows Network. When I try to open it I get the message: Unable to mount location: Failed to retrieve share list from server
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have recently put Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a lab computer for use as a file server, but I cannot seem to get our Windows computers to see the Ubuntu share or vise versa.
I right clicked the folder, said share, and did the samba install.I edited the samba smb.conf file per the discussions here, I edited the nsswitch.conf file per the discussion here, I installed winbind, I disabled the firewall, and I rebooted and tried tearing down the share and re-sharing. Nothing seems to work. When I try to access the folders on the windows computers, I get "Failed to retrieve share list from server". When I try to access the ubuntu machine from Windows I get nothing. I have done a ping from each machine to the other and they have no trouble. As far as I know there are no firewalls between the two computers as the Windows computers can see each other's shares just fine and I've never had issues with ports getting blocked with any of our experiments.
The workgroup for all of the Windows machines is UEDA_LAB and I made that change in smb.conf as well as putting the computer name love218-legolas.
I have attached my smb.conf and nsswitch.conf files.
My main goal is to get the ubuntu folder seen by the Windows computers (for read/write/etc) so that it can be used as a file server.
I've got Ubuntu 10.4 and have been using Rhythmbox to play CDs. When I put a CD in it would always be recognised and Rhythmbox would display the artist and song titles. Today I installed the following package:ubuntu-restricted-extrasThis was so I could rip CDs to MP3s. This worked, however it seems to have also had the side effect of preventing Rhythmbox from retrieving information about audio CDs. If I run Rhythmbox from a shell I get the following debug:
** (rhythmbox:2271): DEBUG: Loading the real store page
** (rhythmbox:2271): DEBUG: navigation requested to https://one.ubuntu.com/music/store-no-token

My network was running happily with no problems. After clicking "Places," then "Network," I double-clicked "Windows Network." My wife's laptop appeared merrily ready to be clicked. I browsed through and accessed the "Public" folder. Ubuntu auto-mounted the "Public" folder on the Windows Vista machine to the desktop. All was well.
I wanted to change the icon to a disk so it would mimic a "mapped" drive like in Windows. I right-clicked the shared folder mounted on the desktop, clicked "Properties," and then clicked the picture of the folder. I then clicked through to "/usr/share/icons/Human/scalable/devices" and selected the "drive-harddisk.svg" icon. The icon changed and I could still browse. I unmounted and re-mounted the folder with no problems, then changed back the disk to the regular folder icon.
After restarting the computer, if I click "Places," then "Network," then double-click "Windows Network," I'm greeted with the following error message:
Unable to mount location. Failed to retrieve share list from server.
WORKAROUND: Opening Firefox and typing smb://IP-of-wife's-laptop shows the share list. I can open and access the "Public" folder no problem.
I keep getting this, ever time I try to map a shared drive on other systems with my small network. 'unable to mount location failed to retrieve list from server'. This used to work.

Mine is used as a server for the above, and also for me to work on. For some reason, I keep getting permission failure. Setting up a share on sys2. sys3, sys4, sys5 can see and read it. My main sys cannot. None of the systems can see the Main one & the main one cannot read any of the others.

It seems this is a common problem. I used Samba to configure and connect the computer running Ubuntu 11.04 with my Windows Visa workgroup. This is a wired, not wireless, connection.
In Ubuntu, under Network, I can see the name of the other computer (NOVA_MORAI), but when I click, I get the error:
Unable to mount location - Failed to retrieve share list from server
I tried the nmblookup command, here is the output:
eleos@Planet-Morai:~$ nmblookup NOVA_MORAI
querying NOVA_MORAI on 192.168.1.255
192.168.1.2 NOVA_MORAI<00>
And:
eleos@Planet-Morai:~$ nmblookup -A 192.168.1.2
[Code]....
There it it. But when I try the findsmb command, it does not show up.
The error message seems common, but I have been trying solutions all day, and I am still not getting a connection.
I have a Buffalo Link Station NAS. I can connect to the NAS via my browser and set up users and groups, but I can't get contact through Network.
If I open Shortcuts and select a folder, the Network icon shows in the left pane. Clicking Network opens the folder and Windows Network icon shows.
When I click on the icon, eventually, this message appears - Unable to mount location- Failed to retrieve share list from server
I did have this unit working some time ago under Ubuntu, and then we changed IP to Virgin and have a new cable router.
Every time i boot up i get an annoying message that says: Network service discovery disabled.

However, a bad router in my network environment alway send wrong ICMP router discovery messages to me. So I have got extra (wrong) IPv6 address and gateway, and the routing is confused. On Windows Servers, I can use "netsh interface ipv6 set interface "Local Area Connection" routerdiscovery=disable" to disable ICMP router discovery. But I don't know how to disable it on Ubuntu 9.10. How could I disable ICMP router discovery for IPv6?
