Hi !
I have tried the Ubuntu versions 11.10, 12.04 LTS & 12.10
I was very happy with Ubuntu 11.10 (w.r.t. booting time, shutdown time, stability).
Formatted the disk & installed LUbuntu 12.10 i386 from iso cd image.
There is a great increase in boot time; Further, it often says that "system problem detected". :(
I wish to remove LUbuntu 12.10 LTS and revert to 11.10
I am aware that it is no longer supported.
If I install 11.10, whether I will be able to get software from the repositories?
Is there any great downside by shifting to 11.10 ?(apart from the non-availability of security updates & other updates).
:confused:

Thanks,
Vineet

[ubuntu] Graphics Card Error

Hello Everyone,

Sorry in advanced if this is posted in the wrong section.
I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 on my Desktop PC. I'm a very new user.
It asked me to update a ton of things so I did. (I had successful startup and was running successfully for a few hours doing normal things).

When I restarted because of the updates, I now get a popup before launch stating:
"Your screen, graphics card, and input device settings could not be detected".
It has options for me to run in low graphics mode etc. However, I've tried all the options and either get this black screen with gray "Starting... X" "Stopping ... X" stuff that I cannot type in, or the option just doesn't work.

For the record, I don't have a real so to say graphics card. I have this small device that came attached to my motherboard with VGA. I guess its a graphics card so to say, but its a terrible one if that.

Please Advise,
iTac

I'm running Ubuntu Server 12.04.2 LTS on three servers.

A couple months back, I upgraded the Kernels using "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"

In each case, I went back and issued the following commands to clean out the old kernels:

Code:

---

sudo dpkg -l linux-* | awk '/^ii/{ print $2}' | grep -v -e `uname -r | cut -f1,2 -d"-"` | grep -e [0-9] | xargs sudo apt-get --dry-run remove

---

To make sure nothing crazy would happen.

Then, the real thing:

Code:

---

sudo dpkg -l linux-* | awk '/^ii/{ print $2}' | grep -v -e `uname -r | cut -f1,2 -d"-"` | grep -e [0-9] | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge

sudo update-grub

---

It removed the old kernels as I anticipated.

All is well with two of them. However, on the third server, I neglected to reboot before issuing the above commands. As a result, I've got two servers running Kernel 3.2.0-40-generic x86_64, while the third is running 3.2.0-37-generic x86_64.

Don't get me wrong, all three are running like the proverbial sewing machine. However, I must have inadvertently made a change to something that now prevents server #3 from upgrading to the latest LTS kernel.

Does anyone have any suggestions for troubleshooting this?

thanks,
Jones

Hi,

Since I got my new laptop, installing Ubuntu is not an easy thing for me. I used to boot from the CD and things are very simple.
I finaly got the usb flash drive to boot in UEFI boot mode, and been able to actually see something by specifying the correct resolution for the graphical installation. (nomodeset=1)
I have an i7 2.4 ghz, 8gb ram, 1TB, nVidia GT 750 *and* Intel HD 4000 (the two gpus switchable with Optimus technology).

The problem is, when I disable the nVidia gpu (nomodeset=1), I hear a constant sound coming out of the laptop. It is not de DVD. I currently use Win8 without any problems.

So what would it be? It seems to be caused by disabling the nVidia gpu. So should I just complete the installation, then install the correct drivers for the nVidia gpu, hoping that the annoying weird sound would stop?

Any idea anybody ?

Hi,
Ive been Dual-Booting Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 8 for a few months now, I now use Ubuntu 90% of the time but I still need Windows for some unsupported Linux software.

I am fed up with the new Windows 8 GUI and am now reverting back to Windows 7 while upgrading to the SSD.

I did a clean DVD install of both Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 on my SSD, while leaving the Windows 8 Partition as is, to transfer across important files.

Ive set Grub as the default bootloader, it detects my Windows 8 and Ubuntu partition's but not Windows 7. Any Ideas?


This is how my partitions are set up according to GParted:

Partiton	File System	Mount Point	Label	Size	What it Is
/dev/sda1	ntfs	/media/System	System	469.03GB	Windows 8 Partition
/dev/sda4	ext4	/home		30.97GB	Ubuntu Home Directory
/dev/sda2	ntfs	/media/Documents		1.32TB	Windows Documents
/dev/sda3	ntfs		System _Recovery	8.01GB	System Recovery tools
/dev/sdb1	ext4	/		13.97GB	Ubuntu Root
/dev/sdb2	extended			105.27GB	? I didn't assign this.
/dev/sdb5	linux-swap			953.0MB	Ubuntu Swap Partition
/dev/sdb6	ntfs	/media/SSD	SSD	104.34GB	Windows 7 Partition

Laptop Compaq Presario 2500 (quite vintage, manufactured in 2004).
HDD 160 GB, installed in 2009.
Running Windows XP SP3 without problems.

Installed Ubuntu 12.04 from live CD, requesting a dual-OS.
Requsted installer to left 140GB for Windows and create a 20GB partition for Ubuntu.
Installer reported installation successful.

After rebooting got the message:

Error: no such partition
Grub rescue >


Tried Boot-Repair.

Got a message that repair was successful.

After rebooting got the above message again.

Repair report: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5600203

The report contains several error messages, especially:

Error: Can't have a partition outside the disk!

The Windows partition, as well as the new Ubuntu partition are still present on the disk, but how to access them ?

Hi all,

I'm trying to install ubuntu server 12.04 through PXE. I've deployed the DHCP and TFTP server. The BIOS starts automatically through PXE and the OS is installed correctly.

The problem is that I don't know how to disable the PXE boot after the first installation because once the OS is installed, then it reboots the system and it installs the ubuntu again. I want to deploy serveral servers and automate the installation process without enter into every BIOS for change the netboot every time. Which is the best way to disable the PXE boot once it is installed?

Thanks,
David

Hello, I´m introducing in this new exciting world of Ubuntu and I would want to ask something that I have in mind and don´t find an answer: If I use update manager, I can choose between security, recomended, not published or not supported updates, but If I use the apt-get upgrade tool, which type of update does? Maybe there is some configuration file that is changed when I change Update Manager`s options and both do the same update?

Thank you very much!!

Howdy guys, I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit and was adding all of the usual extra repositories and everything that I use, and then all of a sudden I did a sudo apt-get update and got this:

Code:

---

W: Failed to fetch http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/raring/Release  Unable to find expected entry 'mai/source/Sources' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)

Anybody seen this before? Know how to fix it? I can't update my system and install certain programs because of it. Any help would be appreciated.

I just made a fresh install of 12.04 on a machine that used to tun 10.04.

I installed from a USB, the machine asked for reboot in order to finish the install. I did, logged in and my screen went strange. Now I cannot even get to the login screen. Guess this is a video card issue but have no idea how to solve this.

I install both linux and windows on my newly bought ssd(sda)
and when i installed linux, i chose to install the bootloader on ssd(sda).
After i finished, i got only a black screen when i chose to boot from ssd,
but the most strange thing is that i got a grub menu when i chose to boot from hdd(sdb),
and i'm sure i chose the ssd as the bootloader installation location.
So why did the bootloader transfer from ssd to hdd?
Does it mean that a ssd can't hold a mbr or bootloader at the very beginning of it?

I like to use gnome-terminal, I always have. I think it's better than Konsole because it's no frills and is just a simple terminal.

When I run it I get:

(core dumped)

What to do?

Hey, I've been trying to figure this out for a while now and have run dry on options. I've had my drobo mounted to my server for a while now, but recently decided to try creating a folder within the mount for another program. I can't seem to create it using the server without using sudo. With a closer look I discovered that even though I'm the owner of the mount section originally, it changes the owner to root as soon as it mounts. Seemingly no amount of chown or chmod will have any effect, but when it unmounts the owner returns to the user. Any ideas on how to keep the owner of the mount point as the user post mounting?

I was running Kubuntu liveUSB on a machine with two identical HDDs, and everything went fine untill disk management settings appeared.
The problem is that Kubuntu recognizes both HDDs as one RAID array, and asks to install itself on one 640GB(320+320) partition.
In 'Manual' config tab it shows wrong partitions and some random looking stuff. I'm getting something like (RAID1_hjhhhhib-something-something, with two partitions in it, and RAID2_hjhh-something-something showing as empty 320GB space, instead of /dev/sda and dev/sdb). Originally, first HDD have ~100MB and ~300GB NTFS partitions, while the second one have 100GB and 200GB NTFS partitions.
Kubuntu does not recognize those filesystems and can't calculate % of space used on it, and i don't want to loose data stored on those partitions in case if installation goes wrong, so basically i can't even install it.
Checked BIOS settings, it does not have anything RAID-related enabled, and preinstalled Win7 doesn't seem to use RAID neither, so I have no idea what causes that issue. How can i install my distro on the 100GB partition(with formating to ext4) without harming other ones?

Hi all

I'm hoping that someone out there would be able to help as I'm now tearing my hair out trying to resolve a major is we are having.

We have a Ubuntu server (Dell Poweredge) running Ubuntu 10.10 maverick with various applications (i.e. Moodle, Prestashop etc) for education use.

The problem is, is that we are unable to update the main ubuntu install or any of the applications which run on the server through their 1 click updates.

When we run the sudo apt-get update we get the error messages as below

Any help would be much appreciated. I have SSH access to the server.

Thanks

After today's upgrade from Kubuntu 12.10 to 13.04, Emacs only starts with "emacs -nw". It's the same for both emacs23 and emacs24. I have tried running with --live-safe-mode and --debug-init, but there's simply no output, and nothing happens. I also tried to purge and reinstall emacs, but no change. What can I do?

Hello, I realize there are a lot of topics like this, but I have parsed through many of them, but none of them have helped with the problem I'm having.

I followed the directions closely to dual boot Ubuntu alongside OS X. I installed rEFIt first, then Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit from a USB I made. Installation went fine, no errors.

rEFIt starts up and gives me 3 options to boot from: Grub, OSX and Legacy OS (which fails to load anything). OSX boots normally. Selecting Grub takes me to Grub.

When I choose to boot ubuntu from grub, the splash screen comes up, then the screen completely dies and it just hangs.

I have tried to edit the Grub boot parameters (pressing 'e') to add different commands like "nomodeset xforcevesa; noapic; nointremap" according to various web sources I've found. None of these options work.

I'm not sure exactly what the problem is or where to go from here.

Thanks for any help, and please let me know if I left any information out.
