I've been having a lot of problems solving my HDD mounting problems and renaming. It finally worked, but I had to delete everything from fstab. As crazy as it sounds, it worked, when I turn my computer on, they automatically mount. They are all working fine. I will attach screen shots too. As you can see my fstab is blank, I was just wondering, is this a problem? Or is it totally normal?

I'm trying to edit mobi files. To do so, I looked for a mobi2html program, which I found here:URL...I followed all the instructions mentioned in the READ_ME file that comes with the zipped source. I strongly believe, as no error messages appeared during the installation, everything went according to plan.My question is simple: having completed all the installation procedures, what should I do next? My general procedure is to look up for the new program name in the "applications" tab, but I know that won't always do the trick.

I was attempting to get crontab to kick off a daily job, but the job wont start. I opened /var/log/messages and noticed all the logs were from 6 months ago. I cleared the log and then did a tail -f so I could watch it for activity. I then hit my box with anunsuccessful log in attempt. Nothing happened to the log. The uptime of my box is 22 days and the logs that were in it before I cleared it were from months ago.Is there a daemon I can check or another file I can mod to get logs writing again?

I have a small ubuntu server setup and I would like to create a directory that can be written to by a select number of users. I have a backup directory setup and I want to enable my account as well as three others to be able to read/write to that directory. So far I haven't had any luck.
The owner of the backups folder, a directory on a separate disk mounted under /srv/storage, was owned by root and under the root group. I added the group backups and then changed the backups directory group to backups. I then used chown to change the backups directory to 775 to enable group members to write to it. I then tried to touch a file in the backups folder but no such luck. I did notice that when I run groups, my user account isn't shown as belonging to backups but is shown under the /etc/group file. I even made sure the GID of backups is in fact below 1000.
Anyone have an idea on how to create a shared directory that everyone can create, modify and delete any file? I believe my problem is related to the fact that root is the owner of the backups directory.

For example, I want to install a texteditor called Editra, i done it like the following
First, I install the Editra
sudo apt-get install Editra - success ,its version is 0.5.30
Second, I run it in Terminal
Editra - it can work,but with the error infos "(python:1682): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_add_accelerator: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed"
Third, I used command line "dpkg -L Editra", and found that the Editra is installed under /usr/share/pyshared/Editra,so i created the .desktop like this
sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/Editra.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Editra
Comment=the Best TextEditor
Exec=/usr/share/pyshared/Editra
Icon=/usr/share/pyshared/Editra/pixmaps/editra.png
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Catergories=Development
It showed, and I clicked it for running, but it told me error infos
Could not launch 'Editra'
Failed to execute child process "/usr/share/pyshared/Editra" (Permission denied)
Not just Editra, so many software that written in python have the same question, such as tortoisehg...

i am write in the forum because i am a bit of resignated. i tried almost all distries and just suse i can install on my notebook without any problems. actually the install works on all other linux deviantes too but the boot records arent written - except for opensuse - but i dont like opensuse. ubuntu is the system which i have choosen and makes a very handsome impression to me. but back to the main problem my notebook is a sony vaio with 4x64 GB SSD cards. 2 ssd's - raid 1 with windows 7 and the other 2 ssd's (volume1) should be ubuntu. the devs are in /dev/mapper/isw_bic_fifbgib_Volume12 till volume 17
i tried to install the boot files to mbr, on volume1, volume2 to the /boot, to a sd card, to a memory stick but ubuntu wont boot from SSD. i just can boot with cd but its not a option for me.

I am posting a thread here for more help. I posted a thread about this problem [URL]..History: This was a clean install of 10.04.1-64b see attachments for lshw and lspci output. An updated bios was needed to be able to turn on the wireless chip, that was done following [URL].. see post #8 there is some issue, the manufacture removed the updated bios from the website.
If I was to guess it has something to do with driver rtl819xSE. I also noticed some 'static' at the lastmountpoints the usb drives. I think the problem here is that this would cause an idle drive never to park and sleep maybe shorted drive life, the logs would become over bloated with this spam, also eat up a battery on a laptop.

I just tried the simplest 'Hello world' example as below.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("Content-type: text/html
");
[Code]...
Code: gcc -o hello.cgi hello.c Also grand a+x to the file and enable *.pl and *.cgi for cgi-script at apache2.conf The server reminds me 'Internal Server error' The weird thing is that I have a perl cgi in the same place with same privilege, which works perfect...

I've been having trouble writing to DVDs on one computer, and I am trying to figure out whetgher the problem is hardware or software related, or, perhaps, both. The brasero CD/DVD writer puts the md5 checksums of each of the original files in a hidden file on the DVD. I think it then calculates the sums of the copies and compares, but the last time I did it, it told me it had permission problems with the drive, and that failed. When I put the DVD in, udev finds it and mounts it in /media with me as its owner. Apparently, brasero mounted it some other way, and presumably that caused the problem.
Secondly, after I brought it up again, I went into the /media mount point and did md5sum on the files there. One of them a gzipped tar file, produced and input/output error. Yet if I use cmp to compare that file with the original it finds no difficulty. So what is going on? Finally, I have tried to write shell scripts which use cmp to compare the original files with the copies. The general form is
cd XXXX
find $* >> /tmp/X
for i in `cat /tmp/X`
do
cmp $i YYYY/$i
done
where XXX is the mount point in /media and YYY is the original directory containing the relevant files. This works fine except that if the file names have spaces in them, the shell script treats each word as a new file name. So I need some way to arrange things so that `cat /tmp/X` returns the complete file name. Nothing I've tried works.

Trying to use the html editor 'Arachnophilia'... here are the instructions on their website. ".Open a command console (Linux: shell console), move to the Arachnophilia program directory, type "java -jar Arachnophilia.jar" For convenience, this command can be made part of a shell script, and those using X windows can easily make a desktop icon." hoping someone can explain how to run this program.. using a new install of fedora 12 (which has java)...i'm a newbie, trying to go open source on a low end laptop - LOVE Fedora .[URL]..

I am a complete noob at this and I need a hand. I was about to throw my computer out of the window when I decided to throw the windows out of the computer so to speak. So, I downloaded Ubuntu 10.10 and tried to install. I had a grub rescue after the installation (file system unknown), which I have seen discussed here. Being the noob that I am I decided to try 10.04 because it said it had full support. With this install I get a similar error during installation: grub cannot be installed in boot sector.
So, basically there is an issue with grub and the boot sector. I checked in my BIOS options to see if there was an option that prevented the writing of a boot sector or something, but I have not been able something like that. So, I am wondering if it is possible that Ubuntu does not really erase/format the selected disks or something, leaving any difficulty there.
Does anybody know? Or better yet: what exactly do I need to do a manual grub install?

I have 50 gigs worth of raw Digital Performer sd2 files originally saved on a fat32 external hd.
I don't have a spare fat32 laying around but I do have an ext3 disk (I run ubuntu 8.04 at home).
I have a feeling that saving these files to ext3 will render them unusable if they're ever transferred back to fat32.
I swear I've been burned by this before.
What would you do here?
Tar them first? A friggin dmg file?

I went and fdisk'd a USB disk and put the Fat32 filesystem onto it. Then I thought I ran dosfsck over it which I thort formatted the disk - apparently not. Then I copied a bunch of files and directories to it. Now I am unable to recover the files and data. In the rare instances when I perform a sloppy mount I see directories named 001, 002, 003 and 004. These directories variously contain files named 001, 002, 004 (no 003) etc.
Fdisk gives me:
I don't know enough to use dd, kpartx, parted, partmon, partprobe, partx et al

with reference to my this thread: [URL]
After installing Windows 7, the GRUB got re-written by the windows bootloader. Now after booting into the live cd and mounting /boot partition (sda2), I tried to reinstall the GRUB with this command grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda as told by this [URL]
But I got the an error which says, Are you sure /dev is mounted? then i tried the same command on the / partition (sda5) which said, cannot find boot directory, Are you sure /dev is mounted?
And installation failed, now after restarting its just a black screen with grub> prompt.
