Ubuntu :: Dosfsck "Unable To Create Unique Name"
Sep 5, 2010
I have an Archos 605 media player that seems to have become corrupted, so I'm trying to run fsck on it. It mounts as a FAT32 hard drive, so I ran
Code:
sudo dosfsck -a
and this is what I got:
Code:
dosfsck 3.0.7, 24 Dec 2009, FAT32, LFN
There are differences between boot sector and its backup. Differences: (offset:original/backup) 65:03/00 Not automatically fixing this. Unable to create unique name

Since 2005 when DualCore CPUs came out, you need to create unique multithread algorithms for every particular program? Or you have patterns?

Ubuntu Linux 10.04 LTS -Partition dev/sda2 is formatted as FAT32 and mounted as /d. Boot found a problem with it; the original and backup copies of the boot sector don't match.dosfsck refuses to fix it. I use 'dos fsck /dev/sda2" and it offers to copy one to the other, but whatever I pick it refuses to write to the drive. I use "dosfsck -a /dev/sda2" and again it refuses to write to the drive. How can I fix this Must I reformat the partition?

I mean can I set up different Icons on the desktop of each workspace in KDE? Seems that a mirror image of each workspace is a waste.What do I need four identical workspaces for?I want 4,5, or 6 different ones for different types of tasks.No I don't care so much about wall paper.

hen I was still using hardy heron, I made a few posts trying to figure out if there was a way to really take advantage of the separate workspaces/desks.Has any progress been made in this direction? I want to do more than move firefox windows around. I want to dedicate a workspace to different projects or aspects of my life. I want to have different icons up in each one that relate to the project I'm working on and only that project

I would like to use Caps Lock as its own UNIQUE modifier key (not merely replace it with Ctrl). I have figured out how to do this on windows but not yet in Ubuntu. Here is what I'm looking for:
1. When I press "Caps Lock" on its own, it is equivalent to the Escape key (or at least sends the "escape" command).
2. When I press Caps Lock + <new key>, it does other stuff.
I have figured out how to get EITHER ONE of these to work, but not both at the same time. For example, I have figured out how to turn Caps Lock into the unique "Super" modifier using xbindkeys and xmacro (this achieves #2). I have also figured out how to switch the escape and capslocks keys altogether to achieve #1. But I can't figure out how to get both outcomes at the same time!

Today I was bored and i tried to put a lot panels in my desktop, but when I put the fifth panel it was blocked so that did not respond at all (I could only move the mouse), so I had to stop with the button. When I turn on the PC it does normally, but in the "log in" screen I put the password and it doesn't do nothing, just move the mouse.

I read a lot of PDF documents using the default Document Viewer and I am wondering whether there is an application or a hack to have several PDF files concurrently open in one application (maybe like tabs in a browser?) since switching between one application to a specific PDF always takes time.(Especially with more than 4 PDF files concurrently running.)

I recently found myself in possession of a large file (a few million lines in length) of short strings and would like to count the number of lines that are unique to the file. I thought this would be an easy process, but while working on the problem, I encountered the following. Can anyone explain this weird result to me?
Code:
alaric@alaric-laptop:~/Documents/Programming$ grep '^string$' file.txt | uniq | wc -l
1

I am looking to understand what would be the optimal or standard way to create a unique id for music files. Something like md5 sum, but taking into consideration that the music files contain some metadata that can be changed.At the end of the day I would like to create a backup database containing all my ratings for the songs. It should be independent from the filename and location.I have seen the libofa, but there does not seem to be much information about it. It is integrated into some GUI tools including Amarok, but they do not do what I want. PUID from Musicbrainz is explicitly closed source based.

As the title says, I'm interested in two (or more) simultaneous keyboards, each with a unique layout. Everything I've researched indicates this should be possible, but I'm unable to get it to work. Regardless of how I set things up, all keyboards consistently operate as if they share the CoreDevice setting in xorg.conf.
In the above config, both keyboards behave as if they're set for the USA layout. Changing the layout in gnome-keyboard-properties affects all of the connected keyboards equally, but has no provision for altering individual devices.

I am looking for c/c++ code (no third party lib dependency) to get the physical address of ethernet card on mother board.Most of them suggests to use the linux commands and process the output. For example "/sbin/ifconfig eth0".The problem with above command is that when you run this on a linux variant which is running using VirtualBox on windows host, it's not returning the correct mac address. In this case the correct mac address is the one set for individual virtual machine."/sbin/ifconfig eth0" works fine when linux variant is installed normally.There is another case when linux variant is installed normally and if you install virtualization apps such as VirtualBox or VmPlayer, they create a virtual adepter for their own use. In that case running "/sbin/ifconfig" returns all the adepters. (physical and virtual)

I have a pencil case I carry with a USB hub and 9 USB sticks in it. I like their unique icons and their root windows to pop up upon insertion. If this is answered elsewhere, I looked several times in several ways on google and these forums.
I tried this:
The autorun.inf file on the USB root written this way:
[Autorun]
Action=Start Blue512MB
Icon=BlueFlashIconBlueFlashIcon.ico
Label=Blue512MB
Then put the BlueFlashIcon.ico icon image in a folder titled BlueFlashIcon In Ubuntu (Mav) I get the new personal icon image for that USB stick appearing on the desktop but the USB root window won't pop open automatically when the stick is inserted. I have to dig to the desktop, find it and click it or go into Places on the menu. If when I put nothing special on the flash, no autorun.inf, no icon image, then the window for the USB pops open upon insertion, which I like, but only get the generic icon that looks the same as all 9 external drives. The labels are unique but icons offer faster recognition over reading labels, when they are needed, much nicer to use~
Ideas? Do I have to use .svg icons or another kind of text file? How do I set up a unique icon for each USB drive AND have the window pop up upon insertion?

Is it possible to change permissions on symbolic links using the c programming language or any other for that matter? Now, I know what you are thinking, so let me provide some background.I know permission are meaningless. I know that typically permissions are set to 777.The project that I am working on does the following. On HPUX systems, a c binary recreates missing links from a stored image of the filesystem, if they are missing. The problem is that the permissions are 700 when the links are restored (should be 777). The c method to restore the symbolic links is "symlink()" which takes as its argument the target and linkname.The client wants 777 on the links. I do not know why the permissions are different. I would like to know if I can change permissions on the link by code, changing the mode?
Is this a bug somewhere in HPUX 10,x and 11.x os or "symlink" c library method, who knows?There are groups of nodes running HPUX, for example groupA, groupB etc.The problems appears in groupA but not in groupB. Seems the nodes are configured differently.While I would love to know if this is a configuration issue, it appears that way to me, there would be little I could do about it. Politics you know, but that's okay, in time someone would listen.

I used Unison to sync my desktop and laptop. Now I am getting the following error when I open my Evolution Inbox (and a few of my other mailbox folders).
"Error while Opening folder mbox:/home/myname/.evolution/mail/local#Archive/foldername"
"column folder_name is not unique"
I have tried moving the .evolution/local/mail folder opening Evolution, closing and then moving back - no joy. It is also definitely not a folder size problem, my mailbox is less than 1GB.
Opening Evolution from the terminal I get;
** (evolution:7529): DEBUG: mailto URL command: evolution %s
** (evolution:7529): DEBUG: mailto URL program: evolution
[code]....
I tried using the advice in this thread (the only one I can find with a similar error):
[URL]
cd ~/.evolution/mail ; for i in `find . -name folders.db`; do echo "Rebuilding Table $i"; sqlite3 $i "pragma integrity_check;"; done However, I still get the problem. I'll paste the print out below as it is rather long.

I have a few generic USB sticks lying around, and a few more SD/microSD chips that I use with openSUSE. Is there any way to label/ID them so they mount at unique points in /media, so I don't blast one accidentally? In mkfs.vfat there is a "-n volume-name" that looks promising, but I can't find a way to set that after the mkfs.

When adding a repository via YaST2, how do you add the Alias name? I don't see a text_box for Alias? I noticed in /etc/zypp/repos.d/ that YaST2 uses the Alias, as well as in /var/cache/zypp/. I have very descriptive text in the Name field to make it easier to read in YaST2 Versions Tab, etc. YaST2 appears to make the Alias = Name.Does the user have to use zypper if they want/need a unique/simple Alias name?

I am faced with the following problem; I need to update all fields of type datetime without ... with the following sort data:01-01-2010 12:10:30.256 - this is just an example.these fields are restricted with a unique constrained. My question is how can I generate the above sort data, especially the last three numbers with leading point. After that how can I update a table with existing data with this newly generated data so that the fields really do carry unique data.As you probably can read out of my question, I read through the help in pgAdmin and came as far as generating date, maybe datetime but not the .123 number. And a little insert script I found in the help, that I modified as UPDATE resulted in updating only the last generated data in all required fields.

I followed the directions on the Ubuntu site and on the forum but am still unable to make one.I used the Universal USB installer (as directed by the Ubuntu download page) and the unetbootin utility as found on a thread in the forums. To ensure that it was not the USB drive, I've used a Kingston drive and a SanDisk drive. Both report "no Operating System found" when attempting to create the drive.I'm using Win7 x64 to create the bootable drive, and ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso as the image.

From the following link I have downloaded "Ubuntu 11.04 desktop i386" in rar form but when I unrar it I cannot find the ISO file to create a Live CD as the only one that can be burned with Nero is the rar file stated above.Or else wubi.exe or USB creator .exe.

I have the 11.04 version.I've tried to run Ubuntu One from the Launcher, but it doesn't do anything, so I have to go to the terminal and write sudo ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk Once it runs, the window opens, and where it should say File Sync is up-to-date it appears in red letters this error:
File Sync error. (org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process /usr/lib/ubuntuone-client/ubuntuone-syncdaemon exited with status 1), next to it I have the option Restart, but it doesn't do anything if I click it.
If I go to the section "Cloud Folders" it appears:
Value could not be retrieved. (DBus exception: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process /usr/lib/ubuntuone-client/ubuntuone-syncdaemon exited with status 1) The folder Ubuntu One that should appear in my Home Folder, doesn't exist.
