Ubuntu :: Cvs How Read A Couple On The Web?

Oct 17, 2010

I've installed the latest cvs for ubuntu 10/04 and read a couple of how to on the web. I have environment set for CVSROOT, EDIT and CVSEDIT. It made me a ~/cvs/CVSROOT and I ran" cvs import mon Ian_C START" in my ~/cstuff directory and that has created ~/cvs/mon with my main.c file. These tutorials do not tell me which main.c file I should edit or how to edit. Should I edit ~/cvs/mon/main.c or ~/cstuff/main.c, should I just gedit it then do a few cvs commands to generate the diffs or whatever?

Ubuntu :: Run A Couple Of Games Through Wine?

Oct 18, 2010

i recently decided to try and run a couple of games through wine, however trying to install two of them through wine, after putting in the second cd in the installer, the system will not recognise/mount the cd at all in the filesystem. it will instantly recognise the cd after i quit the installer for both of the games, so i guess that running the wine setup is interfering with ubuntu's ability to read or mount a cd. since it has happened on two separate occasions and has worked on windows, there must be something happening on my system that is preventing it. so my question is has anybody else experienced this or think that they know what might be causing the problems?

Ubuntu :: User Management On A Couple Machines (uid And Gid)?

Jan 29, 2010

In a small network (with <5 PCs) what is the best way to manage users and groups? When I create a new user, Ubuntu automatically assigned a UID unless I specify otherwise. If I were to mount shared drives between PCs (or between a client machine and a server) I'm wondering how it handles different UIDs/GIDs associated with files (usernames almost always match across system but UIDs/GIDs do not)? Or is the best solution to just assign matching UID and GID on every machine when they are created? Or is this just magically handled via the matching usernames? I know there are heavier options but this has come up a number of times in small setups 2-5 machines at most.

Ubuntu :: Software To Backup Couple Of Machines To NAS?

Feb 27, 2010

I'm looking for advice on a good backup solution. I have a couple Ubuntu machines running at home, and I'd like them to backup to a NAS, which supports CIFS and NFS. Rsync might work, but I don't want to have to write a script myself, or figure out how to accomplish a staggered history of backups. The default "simple backup" sbackup doesn't work for me. I've not been able to unroll those gigantic .tgz files it makes. The restore GUI doesn't seem to work at all; it claims it can't find any backups.

My confidence is shot. I tried Back in Time. I set the GUI control panel to backup every day. It didn't back up every day. Maybe I'm getting it wrong. But, my confidence is shot. I looked at Amanda and Bacula. Both seem to require that your backup server run special software; I don't want to hack into my NAS to do that. Both also seem to require 10 hours of study to figure out just how to install them.

Ubuntu Installation :: 10.04 Freeze After Couple Of Minutes

Aug 26, 2010

I've just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on a AMD processor with a nvidia graphic card in dual boot with windows xp. First the live-cd was already freezing after a couple of minutes so I had to install Ubuntu with the alternate cd. Now it freezes whatever I do after 2 or 3 minutes. I had exactly the same problem with the 6.04 version but I had only to remove powernowd from /etc/init.d/ to make it perfectly working. But unfortunately this file seems not to be there in this version.

Ubuntu :: Fan Stops Running After A Couple Hours?

Apr 17, 2011

I am unsure if this is a hardware problem or a linux problem. My machine is only 3 months old so it is not the fan. I didn't have problems until recently, and after the latest kernel update it got worse - having to restart more frequently.

I do not experience the fan turning off in windows. I use thinkfan when I have to but it isn't a very good program for an every day basis. The fact I can force start the fan with thinkfan when it turns off leads me to believe it is a kernel issue.

Ubuntu :: Couple Of Bugs Since Upgrading To Natty / What To Do?

May 30, 2011

First of all I'd like to say me and my family and friends who ive converted to Ubuntu users have had trouble with natty from the start (needing to mount the drive manually from the terminal after the upgrade being one of the problems) but there are two problems I was curious if anyone else had and fixed. The first problem is an app called "DeVeDe" which is used to convert video files into isos, it appears to work fine until the end when it errors and says I may be out of disk space. My work around is to take the MPG file it converted (which didn't seem to be affected by the error) and convert it using bombono into the ISO. Bombono gives me a similar error if I try to use it from the beginning, so devede does the first half without retiring and bombono does the second half, both program's world perfectly before upgrading to natty and I've tried changing settings and reinistalling but nothing helps. My second problem is with my nvidia drivers, they seem to work fine when I'm using my monitor but when I try to use my 47" LED vision as a monitor it says its detecting it as a CRT and only lets m do 1024x768 as my Max resolution. I know some people will say I should be posting in recede and nvidias forums but thee bugs aren't there fault, as both things world perfect before I upgraded to natty

Ubuntu :: 9.10 Unresponsive To Network Requests Every Couple Days?

Jan 7, 2010

I upgraded to Mythbuntu 9.10 from 8.10 and things went fairly well. No major problems during the upgrade. The system is just a mythbackend server. The only things that access it are for myth and for the smb mounts for mythtv. Every couple days, the system stops responding to network traffic. No myth connection, no smb, no pings even. All I have to do is wiggle the mouse on the system and everything comes back up instantly. I noticed that after it comes back up, the time is off by hours.

Ubuntu Networking :: Loss Of Wireless After A Couple Of Hours

Mar 8, 2010

I have a hp dv3 laptop which dual boots Win7 and Ubuntu 9.1 64 bit. I have no issues with my wireless adapter in Win7, but I lose connection after a couple of hours in Ubuntu. When connection is lost it is not possible to view any wireless signals, the adapter is basically turned off. The only way to restore the connection is to reboot, then Ubuntu will again automatically connect to my WP2 encrypted router. My wireless adapter is a AR928X made by Atheros.

Ubuntu Servers :: 10.04 Shutdowns After Idle For A Couple Of Minutes?

Oct 12, 2010

I've Ubuntu Server 10.04 and am just using the terminal, no GUI like Gnome. So far it's working pretty great except for one big thing.

Whenever I go to sleep and there's no activity on my servers (it's not a big site so active users drop to 0 during the night), the server kind of disconnects. The only thing that can bring the site back online is to restart the whole server. I've tried disabling powersaving by using setterm but that changes nothing. Even if I wake up the server by pressing any key or so the site wont go back online!

I've tried just restarting both Apache and MySQL (I'm using LAMP-server btw) but not even that works. But as soon as I turn the power off and on at the server, everythings work like normal for a couple of minutes of inactivity (~5-15 minutes I'd guess) and then it's down again unless someone logs in to the site and is active.

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Manager Disconnects Every Couple Of Seconds?

Jun 7, 2010

Basically upon logging network manager will connect to my network, and most of the time it will only last 20 seconds or so before it disconnects and tries to reconnects, this tends to go on for quite a while. Logging off and logging on over and over worked once, for this post I opened pages between the 15 seconds that i was connected and after 20 minutes it has remained connected (every time it stays connected for longer than 5 minutes it will never disconnect again) I followed the HOWTO thread so forgive me if most of this information is useless

1 ) Machine Brand and Model (Laptop): Asus 52jr is the model number

2 ) Wireless Brand, Model and Wireless Chipset:

03:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)is what I found from running lspci

3 ) check interface:

Code:

wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 1c:4b:d6:5c:61:8b
inet addr:192.168.1.101 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Hardware :: Display Goes Black After A Couple Of Seconds?

Oct 4, 2010

I had my system running fine on Debian for about a month and a half. Then tonight the display suddenly went black. The system was still running, but my screen was black (though the monitor didn't indicate that it had lost signal). I restarted the computer; it booted through the BIOS and showed me my GRUB menu, but then the display went black again. Shorting the jumper pins to clear CMOS data didn't help; in fact, that made the display go black even sooner. Now, I see my motherboard's BIOS splash screen for a couple of seconds, and the display goes black. I know the system is still booting okay, because I hear the usually noises from the internal speaker. But I now have no visual output.

Could this be an issue with the motherboard or the video card? The board doesn't have onboard video, or else I'd try that. And I don't have any spare boards, video cards, or monitors available to me here. I did try using a D-sub cable instead of DVI-D (my monitor and video card support both), but that was no better. What can I do to try to fix this problem?

Motherboard: MSI 870A-G54
CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 250 (at 3.0 GHz, not overclocked)
Video card: Sapphire 100252HDMI Radeon HD 4550
Monitor: Asus VW195T

General :: Get The Physical Memory Used By A Couple Of Processes?

Sep 3, 2010

I am doing a test to get the memory used by apache`s apache2 processes. I used a script to get VmSize and VmRss from /proc/pid/status, and loop through that to get the sum of VmSize and VmRss of all the apache2 processes.

I found the VmSize (about 4GB) and VmRss (about 3.4GB) are much larger than the physical memory (1GB) when apache server was saturated. It was said because of the multi-counted libiraries size used by many processes simultaneously. Then , how to get the physical memory used by apache2 processes? Or how to get a more reasonable memory data?

Server :: Omit A Couple Of Update Packages?

Jan 26, 2011

I have a server running Ubuntu 10.04 server - no gui. In the list of updates today I see plymouth and plymouth-theme-ubuntu-text. Plymouth is a gui application (and not a very good one from what I recall from 10.04 alpha and beta testing days). So I don't understand why I would need it on a box with no gui.

If I use Webmin 1.530 to attempt the updates I unselect the two plymouth packages and then click Update Selected Packages. The list on the Update Packages confirmation page shows the two plymouth packages. I can unselect other packages and they do not appear on the confirmation page.

If I use apt-get upgrade I am again presented with a list containing the plymouth packages. Nothing in the apt-get man page jumps out at me as a way around all or nothing. I guess I could manually install the other 8 updates and not do the plymouth ones. I fear that they will keep appearing on the updates list each time.

CentOS 5 :: Cannot Open Or Touch A Couple Files In Var During Boot?

May 20, 2009

I have been trying to install centos5.3 with an remote hdd (via ISCSI with Intel Nic and remote iscsi boot). If I install the centos with default partitioning (LVM, just /, swap,and /boot partitions), everything installs fine. However, if I install with custom partitions, particularly putting /var and /usr in their own partitions, I get all sorts of error during reboots. It tells me that the system cannot touch a couple files (in /var and /usr) because they do no exist. However, after boot, I can see these files and they existThe following files I can see so far that are being reported missing at boot are:

/var/run/getkey_done
/var/log/dmesg

Ubuntu Networking :: Dell 1545 - Wireless Connection Drops After A Couple Of Minutes?

Apr 10, 2010

I have a Dell 1545 laptop with ubuntu 9.1 32-bit installed (the 64-bit had a bug with the wireless drivers which is why I have not used it). Initially, the laptop worked well with the wireless (a sky router with WPA security) but now, the wireless signal drops after a couple of minutes of usage. I have to reboot the laptop or sometimes reboot the router as well to regain the wireless signal. I am using the Broadcom STA proprietary wireless driver.

I have an older dell inspiron 6400 as well with the same OS and driver and it works perfectly without any problems for hours / days.
