Ubuntu :: Change Volume Name Now Can't Access?
Feb 12, 2010
I wanted to change the name of one of volumes/partitions from "New Volume" to "Photos". I had two "new volumes" and it was getting confusing. Thinking this would be an easy process I went into nautilus (gksudo nautilus) and right-clicked on the icon representing the volume, selected Rename and typed in "Photos". I now cannot access that volume from Ubuntu but I can from Windows XP (where it is still labelled "New Volume). When I try to access it I get the error message: "Cannot mount Volume. You are not privileged to mount the volume 'New Volume' " This is the readout from fstab:

I'm running squeeze (last updated today), and everything has been working great. There is only thing that would simplify my life minutely..Anybody know how can I have the volume buttons on my laptop change the "pcm" channel volume rather than "master"? If they could control pcm, then I could adjust the volume coming out of my headphones or my computer speaker (both controlled by pcm, but not master...seems strange to me) with just one click.I tried to find this info online, but all results seem to refer to an older version. The simple "click here, set this" solution no longer is possible.

Just wondering if anyone else experienced this. I have been using Ubuntu for half a year now and I love it. I just installed Kubuntu Desktop to try it out and I found that I can't get near as high volume with it than I do with Ubuntu. Ubuntu is even way louder than the Windows that used to be on here.
So why is there a change in the max of volume? I am a huge music person and that is the only thing holding me back from getting rid of gnome. I like how fresh and clean KDE is.

Dual PII 400, 512Mb with a Promise SuperTrak 100 IDE Array Controller. At present I have only one drive on the controller, configured for 1 JBOD array. I install FC9 with no problem. New partition is created and formatted, Grub is installed, and then... Grub is found and booted, but then I get:
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... No volume groups found Volume group "VolGroup00" not found Unable to access resume device (/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01) mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root' I can boot in rescue mode, chroot to the installed system. I changed the kernel boot parm "root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00"

i have this weird problem with my pavucontrol. for some reason my input levels go up and down by themselves when i'm talking on skype...mostly up...and it's annoying because i'll be talking normally, but to the people i talk to on skype it sounds like i'm yelling, and i have to have pavucontrol open always to constantly keep the levels under control..i've made a short desktop recording showing what i mean.i didn't include sound, but as you can see, i'm not turning the levels up manually..i just talk and they go up by themselves

Code:
mount.cifs //192.168.0.3/shmelevsky /mnt/tmp/ -o user=shmelevsky,uid=1000,gid=1000

Banshee have crashed 3 times 'til now when I try to change the volume inside the program. It happened only 3 times, but now I'm afraid to change the volume and change it directly with the speaker's controls.One more question. When banshee crashes, all the system gets freezed. I tried with the console (CTRL+ALT+F1) but I don't know how to kill the banshee process.

I just did a fresh install of ubuntu 10.10 after having been on windows again for a few years. It's not coming back as easily as I'd like.Anyways right after the install I noticed flash crashed when I tried to enter fullscreen. To fix this, I deselected hardware acceleration (per some other post on here, sorry can't remember to give credit).Now when I'm in full screen, it freezes the video if I try to change my volume level. Sound continues to play but the video doesn't move and I can't exit fullscreen or bring up the player bar at the bottom of the screen.I think this has more to do with the volume indicator coming up than the fact that the volume is changing i.e. anything that popped up like that would cause the problem.

Computer: Dell Latitude D600
- Ram: 1 GB
- HD: Hitachi ATA HTS541680J9AT00
- OS: Win XP Pro & Ubuntu 10.04 (Kernel
[Code].....
Upgraded from 8.04 to 10.04 and ran Update Manager. After this, sda6, the shared volume where I keep my documents, is read/write accessible from Windows, but read-only accessible from Ubuntu.
I've tried chmod and chown, but in each case, changes to permissions or group are prohibited. So is copying of files to the shared volume, and modifying files (e.g., via OpenOffice).
Additional info: Ubuntu takes a long time to boot after GRUB and during the splash, with the disk drive activity light on continuously.

Is there a plugin or a setting that I'm missing that would allow me to change volume using the scroll wheel instead of seeking? I usually use VLC for my videos but I would prefer to use Totem if possible.

I've run in to one problem which makes me go back to Windows 7,and that's not being able to change my extra mouse buttons to function as volume up and down. I watch a lot of movies and series on my PC, and I use my wireless mouse to control volume and to pause and play. The last 2 are no problem, but I can't seem to find an option to change the function of the extra mouse buttons.I've looked all over the net, and read various forums, they don't have a clear answer or even an idea how to accomplish this. So I turned to this forum, which I should have done in the first place.

I am using Debian Lenny on a cluster. If I log in as a regular user and try to adjust the volume on the top right panel (Using Gnome), I get the following message"The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured.You can remove the volume control from the panel by right-clicking the speaker icon on the panel and selecting "Remove From Panel" from the menu."or ifenter "gstreamer-properties" in the terminal and do a test I get the following message"Autodetect: Could not open resource for writing."
if I become the root user and enter "gstreamer-properties" in the terminal and do a test, the test works. Alsamixer works as root, but not as a user.My user error for alsamixer i"alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory"I am not sure what setting I need to change to which all users can adjust the volume. Problem 2:When I put in a usb stick I get the following error as a user.Cannot mount volume

I want the volume to change when I plug in headphones, because my netbook's speakers are really quiet but the earbuds I have are really loud when I plug them in. I'm running Ubuntu Lucid Netbook Edition on an Asus eeePC 1005HA, if that's important.

How do i change the channel gnome-volume-control controls? I want it to control pcm but it controls master front. There used to be a setting right in the sound preferences but i think it disappeared with the 9.10 upgrade or at least i can not find it anymore. I've looked on the at gnome alsa mixer while changing the volume and master front gets controlled while pcm is always set to max. The problem with this is that master front does almost nothing to change the actual volume.
If i control pcm with the alsa mixer the volume range is fine. I've found a manual for gnome-volume-control on [URL].en and the pic there actually looks like i remember it looking. But i can not get to that screen. What i have looks completely different. Its a window with the tabs Sound Effects | Hardware | Input | Output | Applications. But there is no sight of any channel settings and the only slider there does the same as the applet one.

Recently I installed JACK and Ardour to try out. Later I decided against it and so I uninstalled them. After restarting my computer, I noticed that the sound applet has disappeared from the panel, although the battery and mail icons are still present. There is still sound coming out of my laptop speakers, but it is stuck at whatever volume I had it set on before the last time I shut down. Volume sliders inside Banshee and suchll function, but I cannot change the overall system volume, and my keyboard shortcuts for this have stopped working as well. When I go into System->Preferences->Sound, all I get is a message that says "Waiting for sound system to respond." and nothing happens. I've tried searching around for a solution, but nobody I could find seems to have had aimilar problem, and none of the various other solutions proposed have worked for me. I'm on Ubuntu 10.10 by the way.

I have recently installed Debian on my NAS server. I have also configured Samba for sharing the home directory of a nas user i.e. /home/nas To this directory I have read/write from a windows machine using the nas user credentials.
When I mount my RAID partition /dev/md0p1 to the /home/nas directory, I then realize that all content in this directory (files and subfolders) is only owned by the root user. When trying to access from the windows machine the /home/nas directory, I do not have any write access, only read. I have tried both the nas and the root user credentials.
I have also attempted the change the ownership of the mounted RAID partition to the nas user with the -R recursive option, but I get for the internal files/subfolders an error "operation not supported".
How can I overcome this problem?
- Is there something not done properly in the /dev/md0 array definition (i.e. ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=bddf8b69:c97967b5:cb104784:7fef7cc3 )?
- Is there something not done properly in the /dev/md0p1 mounting (i.e. mount /dev/md0p1 /home/nas)?
- Should I do any extra configuration before the mounting etc?

I am using a Dell Inspiron 14R laptop that came with Windows 7 Home Basic. The partitions of my hard disk before installing Fedora 15 were:
Dell (OEM Partition)
OS (C: ) (Primary Partition)
RECOVERY (Primary Partition)
New Volume (E: ) (Logical Drive)
I tried shrinking my C: drive (which has Windows) but couldn't do so hence performed the procedure on E: instead. I did this to create a 15GB unformatted space to install Fedora in. While installing Fedora, I chose the option "Use Free space" under Disk Partitioning Setup but the OS got installed in E: drive. Currently, I am able to use both Windows and Fedora under dual-boot but the problem I am facing is that when working with Windows, I am unable to see drive E: in Computer.
Windows Disk Manager is able to detect the partition and is showing it to be healthy (1st screenshot). Its name now is New Volume and neither am I able to change its path or letter (Error: incorrect parameters) nor am I able to check it using "chkdsk" (Error: cannot open volume for direct access/ GUI doesn't work as well) (2nd screenshot). On the other hand, I am able to access both the partitions in Fedora.
Another point to mention is that after finishing the installation of Fedora, when I started Windows, the Disk Manager as well as Dell DataSafe showed that the Windows Recovery drive had been formatted (maybe inappropriate terminology!) and was no longer retrievable. To rectify this problem, I restored my Windows to before Fedora was installed and I seem to have got the Recovery drive back (1st screenshot) (before doing this, it was nameless and empty).

How do you change the volume of the terminal alert bell in F11? (the sound you hear when you press the tab button). I turned the sound all the way down and muted the "Alert volume" in System>Pref>Sound but I still get a deafening bell sound whenever I press the tab button.
