I clicked "Safely remove hardware" (not sure if it's right - using Russian version..). It's right above Properties (right-clicking on the disk in Computer). So, I want to get it back. How do I do that? Also, how do I check the SD for errors?

I was wondering is there away of checking the hard drive for errors using the ubuntu livecd? I would put ubuntu straight onto it only there are various items within Windows that the owner needs to get.

Howto check hard disk for hardware errors without damaging installed OS?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to upgrade RH9 to F10. I have downloaded dvd iso image i386. The SHA1 integrity check passes. The installer fails media check due to "errors". I did an independent verification of the DVD and zero errors found. Download was from Fedora's own torrent, so files should be verified anyway. If I bypass the media check I get the message : Running anaconda 11.4.1.62 the Fedora system installer - please wait.....

I was using Terminal and browsing a directory in my home folder. My "home" directory is located on "/dev/sdb1". When in Terminal I typed "ls" in one of my directories and the output was garbage. The output didn't show the files in the directory. I think it said something like, "input/output error". Unfortunately, I didn't write the exact error down. Instead I rebooted.The hard disk with the problem is:

I am new to Debian but not Linux-based systems. I have been experimenting a lot with Debian Lenny/Squeeze. I am growing more comfortable each day with the Debian design. Yet there remain many unexplored areas. I am creating a migration check list. Things to check, prepare, or reconfigure when moving from one Linux-based system to Debian.
I have a good computer background and my current check list probably is fairly good. Yet I would appreciate input and opinions from experienced Debian users of things to watch in such a migration. Login defs, passwd/group files, different directory locations, keymaps, services and daemons, etc. I am not too concerned with the desktop as I plan to stick with KDE 3.5 for a while and I can basically move those settings across.
I want to put check menu & check list in utility dialog.i dont know how i do this

For starters: I need to get my printers working. Sys>Admin>Printing. Only once in the past few days was I able to enter my printers. When 10.04 let me, I thought it would remember, but the next time I turned on the PC, no printers.
When I go to:
Sys>Admin>Printing> "add new" is blanked out...There is no way to add them again. "Connect" to localhost (these are SAMBA Printers BTW) "CUPS Server Error" is the message I get 'failed to connect to server'
This is a new installation of Ubuntu, everything was working great after installing the programs and configuring settings until a system restart brought these errors down:It cannot connect to the internet, I've tried everything even restarting the network with the terminalThe windows do not have borders, I know this is a common problem but I've read through many different posts and nothing helps, this all happened at the exact same time and was working perfectly beforeWhen you logoff, shutdown, or end your session in any way it says there is an unknown program that won't quit, you have to end it because it will never end on it's own.I've restarted many times in the past but all this suddenly happens randomly, I have Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit and CompizFusion if that makes a difference.

1. I've binded compiz' "scale - initiate window picker" to the top right corner. But it just seems to stop working randomly until I restart my pc. Why does this happen?
2. Scale - "initiate windows picker for windows group" doesn't seem to work at all? For example I open two firefox windows, touch the keys I've set up (super + c) but nothing happens?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am having some trouble installing from both the now legacy "add/remove applications" and the ubuntu software center.
The add/remove applications gives me an error, The ubuntu software center, does not. It just stalls, and takes forever at doing, what I can imagine, nothing. It does however most of the times install what i am asking it to do.
What might cause this? I am having some trouble sometimes at connecting to repositories.
Oh yeah, ubuntu software center, just does not let me click install...

I want to backup my Ubuntu box and I found a couple very helpful articles that describe how to use tar for backup and restore. So far so good. I've dabbled in Lin/Unix in the past, mainly on work systems, but Linux on my personal PC is new to me.
When I ran the tar command as root (su -) I noticed several errors scrolling by in the window. It's scrolling too fast to note the exact errors, but I did notice "permission denied" a few times.
Is there some way that I can capture the output of the tar command to a file so I can review it for errors and/or permission denied statements?
Can I just add some arguments to tar?
tar cvpzf backup.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys /
