Ubuntu :: Bluetooth Can't Browse Phones Anymore?
Dec 29, 2010I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 64-bit and I can't browse the contents of my Cell Phones anymore. I was able to do it with 9.04 but it was a hassle, because if I was not quick enough to acknowledge the request on my phone Ubuntu would get a time out error but after the 3rd try I would usually successfully connect to my phone or if I deleted the phone from the bluetooth and then re add it it would connect on the first try.
With 10.04 when I first installed 10.04 it would connect to my phones without any problems, now it won't connect at all, if I select browse files on device and select a phone it does nothing,no phone response and no error message from Ubuntu, it just sits there like I never tried to access my phones.
I can Send files from Ubuntu to my phones and send files from my phones to Ubuntu but I can't browse the files on my phone from within Ubuntu's Bluetooth program.
I can successfully browse and transfer files in XP running natively and under Virtualbox using Samsung's Program "New PC Studio."

So, how can I remove the ones I don't want to show on the list.

Dec 11, 2010I have UUID entries for USB devices in fstab in my Ubuntu 10.10. I assume this is because I have upgraded my Ubuntu's since 8.04. Each time I boot, I get a message saying it cannot mount the devices even though they are present. I have to skip mounting in order to complete the boot process. I also have two filesystems mounted at Root ( /). See later post in this thread.can I safely remove these entries from fstab and have Ubuntu automount the devices? If I do so, will this get rid of the messages at boot time?

Ubuntu :: Remove Entries From Xfrun4
May 26, 2011In Xubuntu, the xfrun4 dialog (alt + F2) doesn't have auto-completion for every command, only for those commands successfully called at some previous point in time. My question is: where are these entries located, and how can I remove some of them?
I'm just curious because I'd like to keep my entries uncluttered. I was experimenting earlier to see whether xfrun4 would retain an invalid command, so I tried the inexistent (so I thought) command "terminal", but lo and behold, it opened a new tab in Firefox and brought me to www.terminal.com. Now I have the useless command "terminal" saved in xfrun4, and I'd like to get rid of it.
Ubuntu :: Remove Autogenerated Grub 2 Entries?
Jan 8, 2010How can I remove entries manually that were automatically generated by grub 2? I have the scripts I need to add my entries, but I don't want the osprober to keep adding new entries. Even if I make the 30_osprober script non-executable, the entries are still there. Can I do this without "breaking the rules" and editing the grub.cfg file?

Oct 16, 2010I'm having trouble removing entries in gconf-editor (GUI).
I have searched everywhere: manpages, internets, forums, can't find anything related.
Here's the situation: I installed Avant Window Navigator and it naturally created entries in gconf-editor for interface, applets etc. The thing is that when I uninstalled it the entries are still there, and yes I have deleted the corresponding folders in home/.gconf/apps. Also did a search of my filesystem for awn, avant widow navigator, avant-window-navigator etc and nothing came up. Looked in /etc, nothing. Looked in /etc/gconf, also nothing.

Nov 1, 2010we have a variable LIBS:
LIBS='-lpq -lmysqlclient -lssl -lpthread -lresolv -lssl -lpthread -lresolv'
I'd want to get:
LIBS='-lpq -lmysqlclient -lssl -lpthread -lresolv'
Bear in mind that LIBS can be variable, I mean I need to drop any duplicate and only retain the last one of each different entry. And we must keep the order as is, I must not sort out them.
So, if LIBS is:
LIBS='-lpq -lmysqlclient -lpthread -lresolv -lpthread -lresolv'
I need: LIBS='-lpq -lmysqlclient -lpthread -lresolv'

Ubuntu :: Can't Remove Extra Entries From GRUB 2 Menu?
Jun 6, 2010I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 dual booted with Windows XP. Ever since I installed 9.10, I get a long list of OS's (actually, multiple repeats of what appears to be the same Ubuntu install), and I can't get rid of them.I've looked through various tutorials and the GRUB 2 Community documentation (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2) but I still can't get rid of the menu items.I edited the 40_custom file and was able to add the entries I wanted to see, and then chmoded 644 all the other files in the /etc/grub.d directory and run update-grub.The custom entries do appear at the end of the menu now, but the old entries are still there as well. This is what I get when I run the update-grub:

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Unable To Remove Old Kernels And Their Grub Entries
Aug 1, 2010I have a grub menu with a ton of old kernel entries that I want to delete. I've scoured this forum, and haven't found anything that works. I've tried:
Code:"the easiest way to get rid of old kernels from grub is to uninstall the package, the post-install scripts will update grub
for example my current kernel is:
uname -a
Linux hemma 2.6.31-16-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 8 04:02:15 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
then remove older kernels found in /boot like this:
sudo aptitude remove linux-image-2.6.31-15-generic" When I tried that, the output showed the package being removed, but nothing was removed from the grub menu. I tried running the kernel I supposedly removed, and it wouldn't start, which is promising, but how do I get it out of the grub menu? I've also tried using Synaptic, but that didn't work either.

View 7 Replies View RelatedOpenSUSE Install :: Remove Whole Partitions Entries?
Oct 15, 2010I have to hide Unix partitions to succeed in installing Linux and the winner is Ubuntu 10.10! I had to remove whole partitions entries. DOS based primary/logical partitions are now called (hd0,msdos1), (hd0,msdos2), etc. And BSD slices would have been (hd0, bsd1) (hd0,bsd2). I guess I saw those names during installation. update-grub failed in three attempts in a row on 2 machines (32 and 64 bit). Everything went fine after I removed the Unix partitions (which are going to be restored by openSUSE legacy Grub)

General :: Preventing Udev From Creating Device Entries Under /dev
May 21, 2010I need to prevent udev from creating the /dev/v4l/by-path/* and /dev/v4l/by-id/* files upon connecting my webcam.

It works fine if I remove them, but I'd rather not have them created in the first place, since they seem to be completely useless anyway.
View 4 Replies View RelatedOpenSUSE Install :: How To Browse 11.3 CD - Block Device Write Protected
Jul 15, 2010I can browse the iso image easily enough with a loopback mount, but when it comes to mounting the actual CD (which I did first), I get:
Code:
$ sudo mount -t udf,iso9660 /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd
mount: block device /dev/dvd is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/dvd,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
/var/log/messages isn't very helpful, either:
Code:
Jul 15 15:15:56 bkorb-dt kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device
Jul 15 15:15:56 bkorb-dt kernel: sr0: rw=0, want=68, limit=4

I burned it with K3B and it gets the same result trying to mount it. K3B seems to know that the image is an iso9660 and is able to display the various 9660 id fields just fine. It just won't mount.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOpenSUSE :: Wine - Remove Menu Entries After Uninstalling Programs?
May 26, 2011The only MS program I need on my computer is Word 2007 for the equation editor to write/edit files from work. So after installing Wine I installed MSOffice2007. Excel worked OK (although I don't need it - I am perfectly happy with the Libre Office spreadsheet). Word however froze each time so I tried to uninstall and reinstall it. However I always got an error message when trying to uninstall with Wine. So I followed the advice of some strands in this forum and deleted the Program Files folder from the ~.wine directory. However the menus are still in Wine/Programs/Microsoft Office even though they lead to nowhere. I tried to reinstall but still I nothing happened. I presume the old entries still lead to the position where previously the .exe files were located. Now my question is either how can I remove these menu entries and try installing again - or even better - is there a Linux programme that can read/edit the equations written in Word 2007?
