Ubuntu :: Copy To Usb Stick Stalls After Some Seconds
Sep 1, 2011I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 on my workstation (MB Asus P6X58D Premium) and cannot copy large files (350 MB) to USB Sticks. If i copy one file the copy dialog hangs at ~99% and if I Try to copy 2 or more files it hangs after 99% of the first file but if the files are smaller (3-5 MB) it copies about 5 files but not more.(Its the same if i try to create a USB Startup disk or if I copy from the terminal)I tried different filesystems (ext3 fat32 ntfs) but its always the same bug.I tried 2 different Sticks with the same result but both sticks work on a 10.10 box or with win7.I read about a similar bug in natty beta 1-2 but it should have been resolved with release i think.

May 29, 2011I'd like to move my existing Ubuntu installation from my hard disk (/dev/sda1) to a USB stick. How do I copy the data from HD to USB? dd is obviously not the right option since the HD is 320GB and the USB stick only 16GB. However, only 3.5GB are used so this makes perfect sense.And it would make my HTPC even more silent |-)

May 16, 2010I installed Ubuntu 10.04 on a usb stick in persistent install mode. So I could boot the laptop or my desktop computer with the stick, at boot time. Once I needed the 8GB stick for another purposes so I thought about coyping it to my desktop doing from mac os x: dd if=/dev/disks3s of=/Users/jack/Desktop/usb_copy
Now I am trying to do the opposite, after having used the stick, which was formatted to NTFS, just doing
dd if=/Users/jack/Desktop/usb_copy of=/dev/disks3s
but although I can see that almost of the files are there, I can not boot again. IT is also strange the the file permissions are kind of strange, something like _user
OpenSUSE Hardware :: Copy A 700MB .avi To A USB Stick
Apr 16, 2011Been using 11.4 for the last few days and I think I might really like it. Thought getting my Broadcom wireless to work would be the hard part but I'm having real trouble with USB transfers for some reason. Tried to copy a 700MB .avi to a USB stick yesterday, I know it's good as I use it regularly. I get the KDE notification that it has copied the file (seemed far too quick but didn't think much of it) and then went to watch it.
Didn't show up on my telly and when I stuck it back in the computer to check it had only copied an arbitrary 39MB of the file. Tried again this morning, copying three albums to my phone - I get the notification that copying files has been completed almost instantly, I let it sit for five minutes and of the three albums one track has been transferred. It's an Android phone so I can use a file browser to confirm they are there, but they're all 0 bytes in size.

May 12, 2011My usb stick will not allow me to easily copy and paste files on to it, or delete them once I no longer want them on the drive. Its owner is root. How can I change the owner? At the moment it is loading as a stylesheet in media/usb0.
The file is transferring at a very low speed. 74mb in 4 minutes
I suspect I will do better if I set up the drive via fstab. What entry should I put in fstab for a USB stick drive?

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Copy A Read-Only File And Make The Copy Writable With A Single Cp Command?
Mar 1, 2011How to copy a Read-Only file in Linux and make the copy writable with a single cp command in Linux (Ubuntu 10.04)? The --no-preserve and --preserve seemed to be good candidates, except that they should "and" the mode flags, while what I am looking for is something that will "or" them (add +w mode).
More details: I have to import a repository from GIT to Perforce. I want that all Perforce depot files are Read-Only (that is how Perforce was designed), while all other files that were derived/copied from depot files are writable. Currently if a Makefile tries to copy a Read-Only file then the derived file will also be Read-only. This leads to build-errors when cp tries to overwrite Read-Only file second time. Of course the --force is a workaround here but then the derived file is also Read-Only. Also I do not want to mess with "chmod" after each "cp" command - I will do that only as the last resort.
Fedora :: Disk Copy Utility - Should Be Able To Not Only Copy Files But Boot Sector And Everything

Ubuntu :: Does 10.04 Comes With Vim-tiny Or The Complete Version
Jul 20, 2010I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) Desktop Edition Gnome.
I was a Vim user in Windows. I heard that Ubuntu comes with a compact version of Vim called vim-tiny.
I wonder if this latest version of Ubuntu comes with vim-tiny or the complete version (is there any way of checking which one is being opened with the vim command in the terminal?). If it is vim-tiny, how can I install the complete version of Vim and start it inside the terminal with the "vim" command? Because right now vim-tiny (I guess) starts by typing "vim" in the terminal.
will the vimrc of the tiny version interfere with the complete version of Vim?
Ubuntu :: LPR Not Printing Complete Documents
Jul 20, 2010I have just upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic. Mostly it's gone okay; a few things broke but I can fix most of them. One thing I can't figure out, though: 'lpr' stopped working properly. Printing via a GUI (i.e.: using the "print" option from an application) works fine. Printing to CUPS-PDF works fine. But printing via the command line (ie: lpr myFile.txt) doesn't work. It consistently cuts off the first line of text. For what it's worth I have a Dell Inspiron connected wirelessly to an HP OfficeJet J6480. HPLIP is installed and working fine.

Aug 23, 2010Some days ago I had Windows XP and Ubuntu 10.04, obtained by upgrading from 9.10, installed on dual boot (same HD).
However, I had some issues with Ubuntu's boot: after its selection in GRUB, the login panel would not display and the screen would remain black.
I was told that upgrading might lead to problems, so I uninstalled Ubuntu 10.04 and installed it by CD.
Now I have Windows Vista and Ubuntu 10.04 (this time the CD-installed version) on dual boot, but Ubuntu after 4-5 uses doesn't boot anymore!I've also tried to boot in recovery mode, but that was no use(the recovery panel does not show up).

I have already used Remastersys and it also did its job well but after restoring my Graphics card driver did not work well.

Jan 12, 2011I've been having problems with AWN's shiny switcher (the desktop switcher app for AWN). On startup it often, but not always, appears as two identical switchers side by side. After changing any of the preferences of the switcher it returns to normal. After restarting the problem continues. I have tried complete removal of the program, deleting any files or folders that look like they have anything to do with AWN settings, and restarting. But after reinstalling it seems that all the settings stay the same. Where exactly are AWN settings saved, specifically the settings for applets? I will try to post a screen-shot of how the applet appears when I restart later.
