Ubuntu :: Can't Remove Containing System32 And Flash, But Nothing Else)?
May 2, 2011
I'm using Windows 7 as my primary operating system. I've been searching but have yet to solve my problem. I suspect my lack of knowledge regarding operating systems is partly to blame. After a long and difficult process of installing Ubuntu (not Ubuntu's fault), I finally got it to work as an application within Windows via burning the .iso onto a CD. I had some difficulties that I suspect are related to a previous upgrade from XP to Win 7 and the fact that I have two hard-drives.
Anyway, I go into my computer and if I wait it automatically selects windows 7. However, my options look like this:
Earlier version of windows
Windows 7
Ubuntu
Ubuntu
Ubuntu
The first two installations do not work. One does not even load, if I recall correctly. The third appears to be properly installed as a partition within the same drive as Windows 7 (I previously intended to install it on the other drive, which has a windows file I can't remove containing System32 and flash, but nothing else).
Anyway, there are other problems going on, but my primary concern is just cleaning things up to remove the two additional Ubuntu options. I've looked around for previous installation files (though I had been uninstalling them before) and I've been unsuccessful in terms of removing them.
My third instance of Ubuntu is working well and it seems like a nice operating system so far. The CD is no longer needed and is not present in the drive. Sorry if I was unclear. As I mentioned, I'm fairly unfamiliar with operating systems. This is my first time dealing with them (I'm learning programming languages and Linux seems like a better OS for some of them - Ruby, in particular, which seems to have differing code for different OS')
I was follooing this instructions to repair windows system32 in this tutorial found in a previus tread, my laptop is Dell xps 2010 I had Ubuntu Live cd running with Internet,mouse and keyboard, The NTFS and NTFSProgs exist in System/ administration /synatip Package Manager,but i can mount the filesystem properly due the device name etc,thing i missing some code in terminal application.Partition table entries are not in disk order.Regard the repair of windows media center edition (windows system32 corrupted...).
I have installed Ubuntu and i am unable to open windows it says windows Grub missing re-install system32I don't want to lose data in windows please tell me how to install Grub(windows xp sp2)
Using firefox 3.6.13 on 8.04. Doing aboutlugins shows Flash 9.xxx installed. So, natch, does the drop down. I can disable Flash from the drop down, but can't remove it! Using terminal I type in
and get message back saying that the plugin doesn't exist. Certainly can't remove something if it isn't there, now can we?
50 how-tos all have same command line, and it fails me. What next? I am more than happy to remove firefox, but I know that when that happens, all the plugin in info will say behind.
I want to use my flash drive, but I had files I put on using Ubuntu a few weeks back. Now I can only open them in read only copies and can't remove them, from the flash drive. I also have had some issues with file permissions on the hard drive. I was planning on reinstalling after a backup but now I don't know if that would be logical because the files might all be locked. I wanted to reinstall because I have issues with USB and these file issues.
How can I remove completely flash player from iceweasel ?And so that it is also totally remove from Debian..Why flash player is not working..The only message I get is flash player is not responding.Did not give any other messages
i'm in 64 bit kubuntu, with the the nswrapper in 10.10http://www.metacafe.comin firefox i get the sound but not the video in metacafe, when the video is unblocked by flash block. Others have the same problem?
I get this link [url] for change my version of flash, because I can't playing flash when I have turned on effects. So I downloaded file for my Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit and I extracted it. But there is problem, because I don't know on which location I need to copy .so file?
I recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 AMD64 beta. After installing the flash player, everything worked fine. I installed a few updates, as well as Ubuntu Stuido from the synaptic package manager, and when I rebooted, I can't hear any sound from flash content displayed in Fire Fox. All other sounds work fine, and I made another user account as a test, and that account has full audio functionality, including flash...
This has been bothering me for years now...when I go to remove a thumb drive from my computer, I have two options when I right click the device eject and safely remove. What on earth is the difference supposed to be?
I installed Boxee on my 64bit install. I had to edit the DEB so it did not install Flash, because Ubuntu still insists on installing the 32bit version which always borks Firefox.
But now I cant run synaptic without getting complaints of broken packages. I just want to blacklist boxee from from annoying the hell out of me, but keep it installed. How do I go about doing that?
I am the only user on my laptop so there are somethings that I don't need.I would like to remove the login at start. What do I remove to make it go away? Second one is Keyring. Is it necessary? Can I remove it without causing problems?
Did anybody tried installing the latest adobe flash named Square for amd64 systems? I was interested in knowing whether there is any improvement in the performance. I also want to know how to replace my existing 32 bit wrapper based flash on 64 bit browser and install this 64 bit flash.
i've suddenly got problems with flash - it was working fine until a cuple of days ago.i have flash 10.1.82. 76 ubuntu0.10.04.2 on ubuntu 10.04, but videos and other flash sites tell me i need to upgrade to the latest flash version 10.i've tried flash-aid, which seems to run ok but i still have the problem.at the same time, i can suddenly only run firefox tools > add-ons in safe mode - if i choose tools > addons in normal mode, fx locks up completely, and finally gives me the option to force quit. i've tried re-enabling add-ons one at a time, but no problem until i come out of safe mode.i'm wondering if this is a firefox problem rather than ubuntu or flash. my firefox is 3.6.8
To remove pendrive when I click the 'safely remove' tab instead of getting removed from the desktop it reappears again. This problem is there in fedora 14
Anyone else seeing this? I do 'safely remove' to remove USB flash drive. disappears. Five seconds (or less) later, it reappears. The second time I do 'safely remove', it stays gone.
I have a USB flash drive, which is bootable and I would like to copy the whole drive to a different drive.Can I just do a low level dd copy between both USB memory drives, or do I need to make an ISO of the source, and then put that ISO on the destination? I figured I could ask in less time than trying, and exhaustively testing to make sure I had it right...
I just installed Adobe Flash Player 10 and it says it's installed, when I go to firefox and Epiphany it still has flash player 9, Ive quited the browsers and everything Ive uninstalled/reinstalled still no luck.
In my frustration to get adobe flash working in firefox I deleted the /usr/lib/flash-plugin folder. Now when I try to uninstall "Flash-Plugin" from YAST it fails as it can't find the sub-folder. I also cannot install the latest version of flash player as it says that it is already installed - So I am stuck in a loop.
I am running SUSE 11.2.
Is there a config file of installed programs that I can modify to remove the "Flash-Plugin" entry, or is there another way to get over this problem.
I just installed firefox and flash-plugin.The version of firefox is 3.0.10, package is firefox-3.0.10-1.el5.centos.The version of flash-plugin is 10.0.22.87, package is flash-plugin-10.0.22.87-1.el5.rf.But firefox crashes when there is flash in web page, unless disable flash plugin in firefox.
Since I plugged in and then unplugged in the firewire port a video camera, I have a note in the bottom-right corner of one of the desktops. It says 'libieee1284-3".
It's not a serious problem at all, I can live with it, but if there was a way to remove this yellow square from my pretty desktop I would like to hear about it .
I tried clicking and right clicking on it; it does nothing except I can access a tiny menu with - apparently - enlarge, refresh and configure buttons. Only the configure button (a spanner) does something, it opens a "configure" box which does not have a "remove" or "delete" option. Rebooting does not remove it.
