I already know about Ubuntu Tweak but the list of kernels seems to show only my 9.10 kernels. I checked GRUB and the 9.10 kernels are linux 2.6.31-17 and 2.6.31-19 but (acording to GRUB) the ones I am looking for should be version 2.6.28-17.
View 9 RepliesIs removing previous older kernels "vmlinuz", when updates do get a newer version an easy task, or do the more recent Linux like Ubuntu 9.10 do that automatically, and only keep a few older previous kernels ?

2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.i686
Such as here [url] this is the debian installer with a kernel 2.6.26 for squeeze.
Where are the archive on debian.org for those boot.img.gz images, with all different distro / kernels?

I used following command to sort one day older log files
Quote:
find /opt/TimesTen/tt_transaction_log/ -name "mtsDB.log*" -mtime +1 -print
following are log files which are existing, I have to delete one day older files from this location but when use above mentioned command it won't print one day older files, as i understand "-mtime" modified time, "+1" means one day older. am i correct?
Code:
-rw-rw-rw- 1 ablddb dba 268435456 May 30 17:11 mtsDB.log126985
-rw-rw-rw- 1 ablddb dba 268435456 May 30 17:17 mtsDB.log126986

How can i print one day older logfiles?
I'm trying to find ssh logs from up to 6 months ago. I can only access the /var/log/secure* logs up until the beginning of this month. Any way to find the older ones? Do they get archived somewhere else?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have log files that should be parsed and then deleted by a script on a regular basis. Sometimes things don't work for a variety of reasons and the log files sit and sit and are never dealt with. What I need is a small script that can give me the files older than X days and a count of those files.
What I have so far helps me take care of things manually but I need a little automation in my life Here is what I have: I can count all the files in the necessary directories recursively with this: ls -laR | wc -l And I can find all the files that are older than 10 days that haven't been deleted yet by doing this: find /home/mike/logs -type f -mtime +10 But how do I put both of them into a script that will just give me the end number of both?
I'm quite new to linux but I have configured a simple ftp server and it's working great. I have a FTP-Shared folder with upload and download subfolders. Under upload's and download's I have identical category subfolders like mp3's, movies, software etc. in both. As the guy's upload, I would like to create a line crontab where I can move all the content under /FTP-Shared/upload/mp3/* older than 14 day's to FTP-Shared/downloads/mp3/ recursively (Like in cp command), but the timestamp must be searched on the first directory and not sub files example: /mp3/Club Dance/CD1/Hallo world.mp3This is how far I got:[root@clients ~]# /usr/bin/find /FTP_Shared/upload/Mp3s/ -depth -mindepth 1 -mtime +14 -type d -exec mv -f {} /FTP_Shared/download/Mp3s/ ;This command moves the directory and files, but it is not recursively
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using Ubuntu 9.10 and am facing an issue while booting up. It goes into initfs command prompt on one of the 4 kernels that show up in the boot menu. I tried to look around for a likely solution and hence did the following:1. ran "chkdsk c: /f" in my windows partition.2. Added "rootdelay=90" in "/boot/grub/menu.lst" file.This is how my /boot/grub/menu.lst file looks and the problem is with the kernel 2.6.31-20-generic:

I have an issue with apt-get that has been bugging me, namely that it tries to delete kernels I did not specify for deletion.
This is an issue that has been present over at least the last three releases and is present for both 32bit and 64bit, so it might actually be a feature and not a bug, however I can't see it's usefulness.
When I use the command:
Code:
sudo apt-get remove --purge 2.6.32-21*
It not only tries to remove the kernel 2.6.32.21 but gives me the following output:
Code:
sudo apt-get remove --purge 2.6.32-22*

When I go through with this command to remove the oldest kernel on the system, it will actually delete all kernels present on my PC (as I painfully learned when I first tried it). Why is that the case? Wouldn't it make more sense to only remove the kernel 2.6.32.22?
I am running Maverick and I have installed through the terminal those two kernel versions (26 and 27). Once I restart the system and choose either of those kernels to start, I can only work in console mode. I am using 2.6.35-23 without a problem and I have been having this same problem with version 25 too.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm having an issue with my suspend, and nothing seems to be fixing it. Every time I suspend, the computer starts up as if it were shut down. Somebody recommended that I use a previous kernel, such as 2.6.35-28, rather than the current kernel, 2.6.38-. When I open Synaptic, no previous kernels are listed, so I wanted to see if anybody else knew how to install previous kernels.

View 1 Replies View Relatedyesterday I removed old kernels via. the synaptic manager- I'm 100% certain I did not removed the latest stable kernel, and the version before- I did however removed the oldest two. Now after restart I'm dead in the water- i cant get past the initial boot- the screen goes black. I i'm running ubuntu 9.10 double-booted with windows vista, and right now I cant even get into vista...

View 8 Replies View RelatedI use a laptop with a built-in WiFi card (Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] using iwl3945 module). It's OK but sometimes is not very stable, occasionaly it simply dies and I have to reboot. It was even worse but I improved it by applying a new driver.I also have a very nice USB WiFi card (D-Link System DWA-140 802.11n Adapter [ralink rt2870]). It's much better and faster.
So the problem is that in Ubuntu 9.10 (2.6.31) I can use only the built-in one. The other one (D-Link) also works but I can't make it connect to my router. The built-in card connects to it but the D-Link even does not list it among possible connections (but it lists other possible connections which I do not want to use).The funny bit is that this problem disappears when I use an old Kernel (2.6.28-18 ) : both cards work fine and can connect to the router at the same time (obtaining different ip's). I then disable the built-in one and happily use the external card.
Unfortunately the old Kernel has issues with sound and video, so I would like to use the latest Kernel with the external card. I tried WICD but it didn't change anything.I can add that under the old Kernel the USB card is used as a ra0 device while the new Kernel lists it as wlan1.
I seem to be having a problem booting into ubuntu 10.04 (and 9.10 before I upgraded a while back). It's been ongoing for a while now, but I can't seem to actually even get to the login screen. Some kernels just give me a blank screen, and others hang at the ubuntu logo (http://i.cbsi.com.au/story_media/339...ic-koala_1.jpg). It seems to be totally random, and I can't seem to even narrow down which kernels do what. It seems to be a game every time I reboot. Perhaps it has something to do with the beta 2.6.32-rc6 kernel I installed (by clicking on the .deb) a while back? I'm not too sure how to uninstall it, but I first installed it I think back at 9.04, and it always seems to be the first option in grub. Can I clean out my old kernels somehow? Or is that dangerous?
Maybe it's caused by graphics drivers? "Safe mode" doesn't seem to work any better though. And I can't get to the TTY terminals by <ctrl><alt><1-6> either, which would suggest to me that it isn't a graphics issue? I don't see the login screen, nor do I always see the splash screen.
I've been using Ubuntu for more than a year (just basic simple stuff like surfing the net or the occasional document) and in the last months I've been running into the following problem.I've been updating regularly to the latest Kernels the last one should be 2.6.32-25. However at start up Grub loads only 2.6.31-19 and below and there's no mentioning of 2.6.32 in grub.cfg while it is present in menu.lst. I tried to update grub with no success.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am frustrated that I do not see the kernels menu anymore, which had such useful tools like the different kernels, the ram checker or the recovery mode kernel, allowing recovery from a botched update, etc. As of 10.10, I don't even get the kernel messages flashing by, all I get is a dumbed-down black screen a l windows, then it boots ubuntu without offering me any of these options.
How do I get to it, and how do I get it back?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have GRUB to allow me to boot windows and Ubuntu, i recently noticed that my list of kernels is getting clogged up with all the updates. So i went online to try and find out how to get rid of the unwanted partitions and also how to add new ones - i am going to attempt to hackintosh, and will need to know how to add kernels. What i found out was; the boot menu in GRUB had a file that is supposed to be called 'menu.lst' (Lst not ist), and that all i needed to do was edit this, that it wouldn't delete the kernels, but that i don't need to, i only need to add and remove links to kernels on the GRUB menu. The problem is that after looking, i don't have that menu.lst file, i have a file containing the image files for 'memtest', but not for my GRUB. I am using 10.04, i don't know what version of GRUB im using but i'm using whichever one comes with 10.04. Could someone please point me in the direction of the files i need to edit or what i need to do to add and remove kernels?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI recently installed ubuntu 9.10 and a day later updated with all the suggested security and recommended updates. Now I notice that in my Grub there are two different kernel versions listed. Are they both necessary? Can I / should I get rid of the older one, and if so, how?
I ask because after all these updates I notice my computer runs much slower, so I don't want it overloaded with unnecessary software.
So today 2.6.31.17 came. to the b1tch of a cat sleeping on the keyboard, I was forced to a restart before I wanted.
Anyway why does each have have entries for :

I am using the latest Nvidia driver from their website on Ubuntu 9.10. I use 2 kernels, the standard kernel for everyday use and the realtime -rt kernel for my music work. On my desktop i have standard ubuntu and ubuntu studio installed but on my laptop its annoying having to have an external hard drive plugged in when i want to record so i just switch between kernels on a standard install. The problem is i have to reinstall the nvidia driver every time i switch between them or if the kernels get updated (which i don't mind so much). Is there any way i can install the driver so that it configures x.conf to work with both kernels without having to reinstall each time?
View 3 Replies View Relatedthe method for freeing up space by deleting old kernels is made to sound very simple: go into Synaptic, select the outdated kernels, mark for complete removal, and Apply. Easy. But . . . when I mark a particular kernel for removal, Synaptic also wants to remove a lot of other things, some of which do not bear version numbers and seem generic. I am, to put it mildly, very leery of just telling it to go ahead, lest I end up losing things I should have kept and having a dead or at least crippled box.
Say, for example, that I mark for Complete Removal the line linux-image-2.6.22-15-generic; when I go to Apply that one deletion, I get a laundry list of to-die files that includes:
linux-generic
