View 1 Replies View RelatedMy linux workstation recently crashed. After rebooting, Linux (Red Hat 5.3) will not boot properly and automatically went into emergency mode or recovery mode i think. I can still see my /home/user/ and all the files inside.I boot from CD to rescue mode and tried mounting read-only the /dev/sd5 which contains the files in the crashed hard disk to try to copy out my files but mounting was unsuccessful (invalid argument). I checked the filesystem type using fsck -N /dev/sda5 and shows it to ext2. i tried to mount another known working hdd and was successful.
My question is why in emergency mode, the crashed hdd is able to be mounted automatically as read-only but cannot be done in rescue mode thru a bootable CD?Is there any special mount options used in emergency mode?I also cannot copy out in emergency mode booting from the crashed hard disk as everything is read only.
I need boot in emergency mode (not single user mode), from docs:

I need to close images I work with when I'm done with them. As an example scenario, I can open several images and work on them, but every time I open them they create new instances in gimp, meaning the gimp could in the end be using several gigs of ram for images I can't even see are there.Also, I can't start gimp for batch only (Using 2.7 dev version)Code:$ gimp -i -b "(script-fu-thing 1)"This is a development version of GIMP.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow do I move the Window control buttons when the window is in full screen mode? I.e.: I know how to go into gconf-editor:
Code:
gconf-editor --> apps --> metacity --> general --> button layout = ":minimize,maximize,close"
(I've intentionally disabled the menu...)
What I want is my window controls to be on the right side of the window when the window is in full screen mode.
Also I've had an issue with the Unity dockbar glitching out. I can still click on the buttons (i.e. the logout button) but it displays like a nintendo game inserted crooked. Is there a way to 'restart' unity without log out/ log in?
Any one else experienced any glitches with unity auto hiding/showing?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want a simple short gimp batch script that will take one image, paste it into a predetermined layer on another image, export as png and discard changes. Unfortunately, I can't find any tutorials on using gimp batch. Anyone know any such tutorials (Or better yet, what my script needs to be)
So far this is what I have. I need a way to loop through the layers to check the name of them, I also need a way to ditch the previously opened files from memory (Otherwise gimp still has both images in memory) (I'm going to mark this solved so I can make a cleaner post once I get it together)

How do I get into Single User Mode in 10.04?
The grub menu seems to be gone in 10.04, and the computer boots in 2 seconds. It's great that it boots fast, but there has to be some way to specify boot options?
/etc/default/grub says the timeout is 10, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
I recently hooked my television up to my computer as a second monitor so that I can watch videos on it. However, I don't always want to be in dual monitor mode. I've found that running "gksudo nvidia-settings" allows me to switch between the two modes without restarting X if I change some settings around and click "apply".
Is there a way I could setup two scripts to handle this process? The main problem I'm encountering is the fact that I change all the settings through the nvidia-settings graphical interface; therefore, I have no idea what's actually happening behind the scenes, so I don't know how to go about putting the two scripts together (what commands to issue, etc.).
what things can i do in single user mode?is there a guide out there can help me out how to navigate in single user mode?in links that focus only on user user mode?being in single user mode in other istro all the same? debian, fedora, suse. etc

View 15 Replies View RelatedI am running redhat ES 5 on a dell server and recently, I ran into a snag where I was able to reduce a partition (ext3) but could not run resize2fs (mismatch between physical and logical blocks (i never found a solution to this). In any case I decided to log in a single user mode (appended 'single' at the GRUB loader prompt) and now I am always taken to this single user mode every single time I reboot and can't seem to get out of it. I have tried init 5 (runlevel that the system is set to boot into by default) but that does nothing (no message on the # prompt).Of course, I have 2 problems here:
1) partition issue
2) cannot log out of single user mode.
I want to fix my disks with fsck but using sudo init 1 is not allowing me in. It shuts my services down, then gives a "Give root password for maintenance" prompt. I've tried my password, but it rejects it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running debian lenny. Suddenly when I rebooted my system I was unable to login. I type root and the password and it tells me the login is incorrect.If I boot into single user mode, it accepts the password just fine. Looking in the /etc/shadow file, it appears to be fine as well.Running passwd to set a new password sets a new password just fine, i can login to single user mode with the new password, however, I cannot login at a higher runlevel with the password.
If I delete a password in the /etc/shadow file, then try to login as that user, it simply says "Login Incorrect" without even asking for a password.
Upon OS start-up Debian gives a choice, one is just simply start Debian, another line to start Debian, but with brackets (single-user mode). What's this for? And when and why do you need to use this?

If you had Gimp 2.6 (with gimp-plugin-registry installed) and installed Gimp 2.7 to try its new goodies, but Layer Effects are not showing, and when executing "gimp" from console you get these *nasty* errors:
Code:
This is a development version of GIMP. Debug messages may appear here.
gimp-user-install: migrating from /home/user/.gimp-2.6
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/layerfx.py", line 23, in <module>
import gimp, gimpplugin, math
ImportError: No module named gimp .....
If you haven't install the 2.7 version yet. Before upgrading, backup "python" directory and then just restore it after installing 2.7.
Some of you may have had with issues after installing GIMP on Lucid Lynx 10.04. Which may be directly related to "gimp-help-en", which could prevent you from installing other applications and preforming system tasks. If so, use this method to fix it.
Process: (Terminal > $ sudo apt-get install gimp)
1. After installing Gimp go to the terminal:
2. Then load up the language support application:
3. Then it will ask you to install the "gimp-help-en", confirm it.
4. Fix'd
I think this issue is directly linked to a systems with multiple languages, but I haven't been able to test this theory out yet.
I installed Ubuntu 11.04 and it refuses to show me a boot menu so I can select single user mode. When it does boot, it continues to cycle as X11 fails, but will not let me change into any of the consoles via control+shift+1-7 or control C or any command. X11/GDM continues to cycle as I hear my video card keep spinning up and down. In every version prior, after 3-4 fails it would give you a shell and say, ok it failed. how to boot into single user mode or escape out of this GDM/X11 fail cycle?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have successfully installed Debian on a Sparc Ultra5, 270MHz SparcIIi CPU, 384MB RAM, 40GB HD. However, once Debian tries to load Gnome (right before the login screen) the screen goes blank, and so the machine becomes unusable. I booted of the NetInstall CD, into rescue mode, and executed a shell, but apparently there is currently a problem when running nano from a live CD, so I can not edit the xorg.conf file when I boot the live CD. So, I would like to just boot the install into single user mode, but I dont know how. Currently, when the Ultra5 is powered on, it tries to boot with command "boot", so I hit "Stop A". From there I type "boot Disk1" to boot Debian normally. To boot from a CD, I would type "boot cdrom" So any idea on how I can boot from Disk1 in Single User Mode?
My only other idea is to hook up another monitor I have which may be able to deal with whatever resolution Gnome is defaulting to. However, Id rather just boot into single user mode.

Is this possible? If so, please share the procedure to do so.
