Aug 11, 2010I started my computer up in ubuntu today and got an error while it was running through a system check. It said "Errors were found while checking the disk drive for /". I pressed F to fix it and a while later, instead of booting like it normally would, it went to the terminal.
It asked for me to login, and when I did, it said:

Ubuntu :: Stuck In Recovery Terminal?
Jun 26, 2011been running PCLinuxOS for a while and thought I'd check out Ubuntu, I LOVE IT! Only one problem. I recently installed it and after getting the entire thing loaded and setup I messed up on a sound driver. Went to the LOGIN SCREEN settings and selected RECOVERY like a DOPE! Now I'm stuck in a bootup login screen that always goes to a small white terminal in the upper left corner! I've tried EVERYTHING from the forums to get back to booting into the GUIo luck! Is there a way to reset the LOGIN SCREEN to boot to Ubuntu GUI from the terminal? I really don't want to reinstall and reconfigure this whole thing again

Feb 16, 2011Some time back I posted a question about using a Greek keyboard since I'm trying to improve my limited Greek. Someone suggested a way of switching between the English and Greek desktop for Ubuntu. I tried that but it didn't work so well so I removed it. But I just tried to use the Terminal to install something and it's all in Greek!!! Now while I can read some of it my skills are not that good and I need it back in English again... Quickly actually! How do I go about removing the Greek from my terminal? Everything else on my system is in English so I can't figure why the terminal is stuck there.

May 4, 2010I installed unbuntuzilla in 9.10 and kept an update of firefox from Mozilla. After one update firefox 3.6.3 refused to start except in safe mode. Also attempts to remove firefox was unsuccessful, even when I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04. see the printout below which I got when I ran sudo aptitude remove-firefox-mozilla-build.
I cannot update my system at the moment either as Synaptic cannot go beyond trying to remove firefox.

Ubuntu :: Removed PPA - Now Can't Login / What To Do?
Jan 12, 2011All I did was go into Software Sources, selected the PPA for the program I wanted to remove (I forget what it was called now - Synabolus or something...it was a desktop search program), then went into Ubuntu Software Centre and removed the applicable entries there.
Now when I boot up into Ubuntu it asks for my password (which it never use to do) and when I enter the password it just keeps looping to the password screen.
Ubuntu :: Msttcorefonts Can't Be Removed?

Everytime I update or install I get the error: Code: E: msttcorefonts: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 remove the package. Not even re-install works.
Ubuntu :: Removed /bin/sh - Now Can't Boot
Jun 16, 2011I was trying to point /bin/sh at /bin/bash but got the symbolic link the wrong way and wiped bash, so tried to reinstall it but apt gave me problems. So I tried rebooting, but it fails to with errors like this:
init: Failed to spawn plymouth main process: unable to execute: no such file or directory
I'm pretty sure this is related to the lack of /bin/sh
So how can I tinker with the grub boot arguments and give it /bin/dash or something instead? I'm running 10.10 in a VM (Parallels) so don't have access to the filesystem from elsewhere (as far as I know)

Nov 16, 2010I was going to arping something the other day and found it wasn't installed. So I used sudo apt-get install arping. It went through fine, I was arpinging happily. I shut down for the night, and then this morning, I couldn't connect to the internet. I do some searching around and get eth0 added to me /etc/network/interfaces correctly, and I'm back online, but I can't see the network manager to connect to a wireless network; not a big deal since I have a dock here, but I might want to go on the move.
So, I start looking around forums and in the process of following some of those guides, I find NetworkManager is not installed! I get it installed and everything managed properly again. My system is working as intended. But now I'm curious what happened, so I start looking at some of the logs in /var/log. Then I find this in /var/log/apt

Ubuntu :: Accidentally Removed Environment
Dec 27, 2010I have Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx. I recently started messing with the desktop environment, going from GNOME to Ubuntu Studio to Netbook Remix... and then I decided to remove the Netbook look and go back to Studio, by removing it through the Software Manager. But this seemed to remove any and all desktop environments present. So now I just have the xterm. This was not part of the plan. I can get the Software Manager up and running, but I cannot get packages. I could try to provide the exact error message I get when I try, though I'm not entirely sure how to bring it to you. Is there a way I can get a desktop environment back after such a screw-up?
View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: Removed Apache2 But It's Still There?
Mar 8, 2011I'm very baffled by this, I was setting up my mumble server since my old one had a hard disk failure. I was messing around with web registration but decided I didn't want it since this server is really only for a few friends.
So I removed all the mumble-django and apache2 packages required for web registration, but for some reason apache2 is still on my system and listening for connections.
terminal output below to further clarify.

Jul 26, 2011Today ubuntu (installed 11.04) really disappointed me. I was using Windows seven since many months without any problem and a friend of mine suggested me to try UBUNTU thing. In my desktop pc I have:
Pentium Core2Duo

4GB RAM
Windows 7 Is installed on WD SATA
I installed UBUNTU 11.04 from USB installer (universal usb installer) and ISO image (Downloaded from UBUNTU website). Installer displayed an option to install UBUNTU along with existing Windows without making changes to existing data on drive. - I preferred choosing this option..
No other detail were given and installer began to install UBUNTU. After the installation was complete and Ubuntu boot up to with no error I found that all the partitions of my second hard drive (samsung SATA) were removed and it Disk Utility shows single Ext4 version 1.0 type Linux Basic Data partition of

Ubuntu :: WINE Not Completely Removed?
Jul 28, 2011I tryied installing wine patched for league of legends from the source code (./configure, make, sudo make install). Wine didn't appeared in the application tab in gnome and then i installed wine from its repo. After uninstalling it i saw that whenever i try to open an exe file, wine still tries to run it, regardless the fact that wine is not present in the application folder. After a search i find that wine libs and files are still there, even after the unistatll. I think they are there because the installation from source files so how do i remove them besides deleting them manually?
View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Why The Possibility Of Installation Was Removed From 10.4
May 8, 2010I have never ever have a single installation issue with ubuntu (been using it for years and years, and before I used other distributions for years).Now I want to install Ubuntu 10.4 alongside Windows 7. I don't have any other demands or wishes, just for it to install. Unfortunately, there is no way to do that. The installer is always stopping at a "no root file system is defined". When I go to gparted in the liveCD version it shows my entire drive as free, unallocated space (although there are at least 3 partitions, one of them with working windows 7).The LiveCD sees the partitions all righ, I can access the windows partitions without any problem. Fdisk -l also shows my partitions properly. Gparted, however, for some reason doesn't recognize them.
I have only two options:
1) use whole drive (which would erase my windows 7 - no, no)
2) set up manually (which says all my 250gb drive is unallocated space). No other choices.
And generally the installer of ubuntu says "This computer has no operating systems on it."
Installing through wubi doesn't work as well. After restart it wants to install but reaches sth like 257% on "getting time from server" and says there's no root filesystem. So it's all basically about ubuntu not wanting to acknowledge the simple fact that there are already partitions and OS's on my drive...

When I turned it on again everything was fine until I had to pass trough the login page. I've inserted my credentials and then when I clicked in "Login" it appears a dark screen and then again the Login screen.
Ubuntu :: External HD - Still Flashing After Safely Removed?
Jul 5, 2010I've used both 9.10 and 10.04, but I noticed, when I in 9.10 mounted my external HD and then safely removed it (without removing the USB-cable) it used to flash for 3-4 seconds (indicator-light) and then go out.
Now, in 10.04, it just keeps flashing (indicator-light), even though I have removed it safely (not unplugged it though). Why would it do this? The indicator-light should only flash if there is activity going on on the HD?
