After rebooting, it shows me only console,which asks login and password. how can I bring things back and actually install ATI driver..?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was using the open source ATI drivers and KDE's compositing worked, so I hadn't installed compiz. I wanted to try fglrx because I thought a) I might be able to get temperature readings, and b) it might stop Kubuntu from making my computer incredibly hot (in Windows 7 it stays cool). So I installed fglrx by enabling it in the restricted hardware drivers thing, and things worked, but compositing was disabled and no matter what I did I couldn't enable it. So I installed compiz. When I run compiz, I get the following output:
Code:

I am trying to use Xen tools to run multiple operating systems on my machine. The problem is that when I try to install Windows (32) XP (using "hvm" build) it crashes ! It crashes after it starts copying some files (immediately after formatting) at 18%/20%). I can't see the cause of this such a crash, I know it's a crash because I told it to restart on case. Here is my configuration file:
Code:

Anyone gotten CentOS 5 to install on this hardware? The installer boots and partitions the drive, but either crashes during formatting of the partitions or during package installation with a kernel panic.
I am a long time gentoo-user (~10 years). Just bought this new laptop and don't want to take the time to compile everything. During my search for a nice binary distro, I found the KDE reloaded CD, which I then downloaded. That was because I had a great hassle to find a Distro which supports the latest KDE, I was used by gentoo. Well, I am very impressed: Installation went flawless and the Distro is very up-to-date.
Well, now to one of my problems: I have this mobile internet stick:
Code:

which also gets detected as a modem. So far so good. When I now try to set it up, the KDE networmanager just segfaults badly... This is the output from the error report:
Maybe there is a possibility to set it up command line?

I work as an system administrator for AIX and Linux servers. We have an FTP server running in Linux which has shared folders to Windows domain using Samba. The new requirement is to map users created to Linux machine to Windows users in such a way that, when a user logins into Windows machine with an ID say "X123" in domain "TEST", his access control to the samba shares should reflect based on the same user ID created in Linux machine.(FYI. Both the Windows and LINUX machines are in same network and domain). Please let me know the step by step procedure to configure Linux machine (smb.conf entries or any new file to be created for user mapping) to identify Windows user Login and provide access restrictions accordingly.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have tried 2 fresh installs of Ubuntu 10.10 from Wubi. After the initial Windows install I reboot, select Ubuntu, get the countdown (at which point I have to hit ESC for options or it will just hang), then select the 'ACPI Workrounds' option. I get to the purple splash screen with preview slide show and Ubuntu begins finalizing the install. The progress bar goes all he way to the end, reading "recalculating splines", but then my system reboots.
When I chose Ubuntu again I have the standard option and the 'safe mode' option. Neither get me back to the purple splash screen, but instead just hang. Safe mode will begin to load, then hang on [ 1.771083] ata: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps...
I have tried to edit the Grub for both of these options. I tried adding (variously) 'nomodeset', 'noapic', 'nolapic' and have deleted 'quiet splash' [I don't recall every combination of commands I tried, so if there is a specific set please let me know]. No matter what I try here, as soon as I hit CTRL-X, it goes to a screen stating: "Booting command list". It just hangs on this screen and I can not type anything in. I am forced to pull the power cord to reboot.
I am running an older laptop: Toshiba Satellite A135; Intel Celleron Processor and 2 gigs of RAM, Windows Vista Home Basic pre-installed
PS: The only errors I could find in a Google search having to do with "splines" was in relation to Ooo.

After upgrading to 10.04, Thunderbird crashes every 20 minutes or so. No mozilla crash reporter pops up... it just dies. No idea why. I filed a bug, but nothing seems to be happening with it. I find it hard to believe I'm the only one experience this level of instability.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a weird problem. Sometimes Ubuntu freezes when I'm booting up, sometimes not. I would say 2 out of 3 times it crashes, all other times it goes fine. I alway get past the GRUB bootscreen, then it starts loading. Towards the end or so, all of a sudden all disk activity stops and the screen hangs. Ctrl+C, Ctrl+Z, Escape, whatever buttons I press, it doesn't do anything.
I removed the "quiet" and "splash" boot options in GRUB so I could see in detail what is loading, but this doesn't make any more sense then before. The lines of text are always a bit different every time it happens so I can't really pinpoint when it goes wrong. Anyway, I don't see anything wrong with the output on my screen, I guess the real problem is not displayed.
I also tried booting into recovery mode. Also here this is strange. Sometimes I make it to the recovery screen with the options (resume, clean, netroot, ...), sometimes it crashes before that. When I get the recovery screen I choose "resume", this usually works and then I use "startx" to go into graphical mode. However, at other times, when I choose "resume" it freezes even before I get a login prompt.
So please guys, tell me, what is the problem here? How do I find out where I should start looking. Ubuntu sometimes freezes and when it does it doesn't alway happen at the same place as before. I know only 1 thing for certain, once I'm fully booted I don't have any problems whatsoever, everything seems to work flawlessly.
I am running a dual boot system with Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows7/XP. I am running kernel 2.6.35-24 (also tried 2.6.35-23, but no difference). I have an i5 CPU, so 64 bits. If you need any more information, just ask.
I am having following problem: Next to everytime, when I try to shut my pc down, KDE crashes, which is pretty annoying, because I like to download stuff over night and therefore I want to shut this pc down automatically. This is obviously not working when kde crashes everytime. I know that kde is not very stable, but is it really that bad? Is this a common issue?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have some curious errors and crashes since yesterday. Firefox crashes without saying anything or just freezes. Thunderbird also crashed once without any reason, as far as I could discern.
Compiz is another candidate. Either it segfaults and sends me back to the GDM login screen or it crashes in another way, resulting in a flickering window with an unreadable error message (just an empty window with the nautilus icon in the menu bar, background image stays the same, Unity or any other compiz things are gone). I even had some real X segfaults mixed in.
Anywhere from 2 -> 6 times a day, my computer will freeze up. If any audio was playing, it will repeat the last few seconds over and over again.
I've been dealing with the problem for a couple of months now, with no solutions.
It can happen anytime, but it tends to happen on my screensaver about 50% of the time after I've locked my computer and during the early morning (12am onwards) when I have a full-screen video playing, but it's never done it at night in the same circumstances.
I am confused and just can't figure out the problem.

I have conky on my desktop, and it works most of the time. The only times I've noticed problems are when I do large file transfers from my computer to an external HD.
What happens during large file transfers is that Conky crashes, and then I realize that my desktop is also "dead" (as in, I can't highlight anything. The icon for my external HD is gone, even though it is still mounted and accessible. Right-clicking doesn't do anything either.). I tried Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, but that didn't work either. I can log out and back in to get everything working again, but that's a bit of a pain.

So I re-installed Ubuntu. Now it crashes when I logon to Ubuntu.
I have a program running on my server which I want to restart in the event that it ever crashes. Someone suggested "Watchdog" to me, but it appears to me that watchdog restarts the whole system, not the program. I couldn't find much documentation for it. Another suggestion I was given was crontab, except that I don't want to relaunch the program every 60 seconds, as it doesn't run on screen or anything, it forks itself into the background after launching it. Perhaps a bash script that would check to see if the program were running or not, and if it weren't, relaunch it? Not sure how to do that, I've never written bash. In any case, I just want to keep this program running full time.
