[xubuntu] Xubuntu 18.04.1 LTS Doesnt see WIN7 During Dual Boot Install

$

I wiped my PC and installed WIN7 on disk1, I want to install Xubuntu on disk0 for a dual boot. I get to the installation type screen and it says at the top of the options: "This computer currently has no detected operating system. What would you like to do?" I have a freshly installed instance of WIN7 Enterprise x64. What gives?

A couple peculiar observations. Windows chose to install itself on disk1, I didnt choose that, I was expecting it to install on disk0. Is this an issue?

I ran GParted from the Xubuntu boot disk. I saw sda empty as expected, and sdb has the Windows partitions as expected. I see sdb1 EFI system partition, sdb2 Microsoft reserved partition, and sdb3 basic data partition. One problem, sdb2 has a warning:

Warning:
Unable to detect file system! Possible reasons are:
- The file system is damaged
- The file system is unknown to GParted
- There is no file system available (unformatted)
- The device entry /dev/sdb2 is missing

I booted into Windows and ran a checkdisk scan on C. Thats as far as I got and dont know where to go from here. Like I said, I can boot into Windows no problem. Any help will be appreciated.

Ubuntu 18.04LTS will not boot on Samsung Laptop but 16.04 will boot and install

I got a Samsung Laptop(NoteBook 7 Spin with an AMD Ryzen Quad Core Processor) that has Windows installed on the SSD. I put in a HDD because I don't use Windows much and intend to install the latest version of Ubuntu on it. I can't get a live session of Ubuntu 18.04LTS to even boot on it. It simply boots into Windows. I was able to get a live session of 16.04LTS to boot into the live session and was also able to install it. 16.04LTS doesn't seem to be responsive of the mouse or touchscreen, but the keyboard does work so I can get to the command line.

Is there any reason that 18.04LTS will not boot? I did try with a disc and USB drive, and also tested both on another laptop where they worked.

[ubuntu] Installing teamviewer 14.0 on ubuntu 14.04

Iam trying to install Teamviewer 14.0.14470 or teamviewer_14.0.14470_amd64.deb to be precise.
I have tried using the software center but the gui shows "Dependency is not satisfiable: libqt5gui | qt56-teamviewer".
Tried to install using "sudo dpkg -i teamviewer_14.0.14470_amd64.deb" but get a series of dependency problems like so ...

Code:

...
teamviewer depends on libqt5gui5 (>= 5.5) | qt56-teamviewer; however:
  Version of libqt5gui5:amd64 on system is 5.2.1+dfsg-1ubuntu14.3.
  Package qt56-teamviewer is not installed.
 teamviewer depends on libqt5widgets5 (>= 5.5) | qt56-teamviewer; however:
  Version of libqt5widgets5:amd64 on system is 5.2.1+dfsg-1ubuntu14.3.
  Package qt56-teamviewer is not installed
...

Checked version of qt using

Code:

atp@atp-2404:~/Downloads$ qmake --version
QMake version 3.0
Using Qt version 5.2.1 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
atp@atp-2404:~/Downloads$

Shows qt 5.2 is installed.
Tried to install libqt5gui5

Code:

atp@atp-2404:~/Downloads$ sudo apt-get install libqt5gui5
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree     
Reading state information... Done
libqt5gui5 is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Shows that libqt5gui5 is already there.
But then qtchooser shows this

Code:

atp@atp-2404:~/Downloads$ qtchooser -list-versions
4
5
default
qt4-i386-linux-gnu
qt4-x86_64-linux-gnu
qt4
qt5-x86_64-linux-gnu
qt5

Seems there are two versions of Qt and installing libqt5gui5 says its already at the newer version but then the Teamviewer install still fails.
Anyone had this problem?

Working Ubunto 16 USB disk detection / load errors

$

I have a working USB 16.04.3 LTS AMD 64 USB boot disk. I know it works because I have booted from it on Computer A (specs below). (I also made the USB on Computer A.

When I try to boot the USB from Computer B, GRUB comes up. I tried to check the hard drives in Computer B (which I am 99% sure are failing), that hung with an error, do not recall the error, sorry.

So I tried to "try Ubuntu" without installing, and received another five errors, one of which was something about not being able to access/load the USB. Then the Ubuntu loading screen comes up but never goes away (talking hours here).

The USB slot I am using in Computer B works. I have booted from a Windows USB as well as D-ban in the same USB slot.

(Computer A: Samsung Note 9, Windows 8.1, specs here: https://icecat.biz/us/p/samsung/nt90...-21966278.html)

(Computer B: LG 22v24, Windows 7 Pro K, specs here: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/13...4.html?page=26)

Suggestion? Thanks in advance.

[ubuntu] Trying To Move To Ubuntu...

I have an HP 15 - Intel Core i3-8130U - Intel UHD Graphics 620 - 1TB HDD - 16GB Intel Optane Memory, 16GB DDR4. Windows 10 - bleh! Trying to install 18.10 *OR* 18.04 LTS

So I really want to make the leap over to Ubuntu, however, even using a good USB drive, and following the directions on how to download and create the bootable USB drive, this is what ocurred:

1) At first the "live" version of Ubuntu would load like a charm but unable to see the hard disk to install to. Thus, unable to install.
2) Though it might be a problem with the creation of the USB drive, so I low-leveled the USB drive, re-partitioned, reformatted, recreated the bootable USB drive, now getting a fatal error right off the bat - will not even go to the Ubuntu menu to choose live or install.

This is a pretty vanilla laptop...so I don't understand what could be causing this...

Any thoughts?

[ubuntu] 16.04 to 18.04 Desktop Fails, Server Seems to Work

$
0
0
I've been running Desktop Version 16.04 on a HP Pavilion dv7-1183 laptop for some time. I want to upgrade to 18.04 Desktop. To check for compatibility I wanted to use the "Try Ubuntu" option prior to the install. The Desktop install routine stops before getting to the "Try vs. Install" menu. The last lines in the scrolling startup log are:
+ Microsoft Nano Transeiver - V1.0 on usb-0000.001d3- 1/input2
+ 21.390789 Random: CRNG-INIT Done

Out of curiosity, I tried installing Server Version 18.04. It ran up to to the point of language selection with no problems. I cancelled the installation at that point. I assume that getting to language selection means that the install will proceed to completion.

Can someone help me get V 18.04 to install? If I can't get Desktop V 18.04 to install, are there important issues with running 2 PcS with Ubuntu Server on the same local network? (I have a 18.04 Server already installed)

Thanks, in advance.

Another Dual Boot Post: Removing Windows 10

Hi everyone,
I know there are many posts about this, but as we know, each dual boot is (somewhat) unique. I currently have Windows 10 dual-booted with Ubuntu 18.04 on my Asus Zenbook. I don't have a need for Windows on the machine any more, so I'd like to remove it. I'm just not exactly sure what to delete and what to resize. I've read some posts and I'm assuming I need to delete 2 and 3, but as you can see, I have two Linux partitions, home and root. I created these because I was just doing what I was told when following a tutorial for dual booting, so I'm not quite sure how they need to be resized after the Windows deletion. I'll also need to set my GRUB to auto boot Ubuntu. If anyone could step me through the process, that would be great!

PS, this screen shot is from the Live USB I created for the original Ubuntu dual boot installation. Thanks again!

Ubuntu x86 on a 32-bit EFI Apple iMac

If you do not know what a 32-bit or 64-bit EFI is, please do not blindly reply (just for those who think that I am talking about OS architecture here).

The late 2006 Intel iMac has a v1.x EFI of type 32-bit.

I have been struggling to install Windows, OSX, and Ubuntu as a triple boot system. I can not seem to get Ubuntu to install in EFI mode. Is it possible to install Ubuntu x86 in EFI mode?

[ubuntu] update-manager error crashed with SystemError in open():

I can really use some help

Hi all

I've been having a lot of trouble trying to update 16.04. The other day I noticed I wasn't getting regular updates as usual. I opened the system & updates and there was a very long list of various updates I had not done. I did not D/L right then and went looking for some what or why information, but I didn't find anything on-point.

I went ahead and starting the updates. I can't say exactly how many there were, but them my system started having multiple crashes. It seemed to start the updates and then crashed time after time. It kept asking me to send an error report, but then crashed before it was submitted.

I went looking for anything I could find, but no luck.

Prior to this incident I had another problem. I'm not sure if they are related. For a long time (months) I had a error notice in the top right menu bar. It is a red circle with a white line. I did not have time to deal with it and my system continued working. A right click showed "Ubuntu Error Package manager - "right click or Apt-Get in terminal . "error: opening the cache (E: could not read from /var /lib /apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com _dists_xenial-updates_in release-get line (21: is a directory) E: the package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.) : this is usually means that your installed packages have unmet dependencies
I did not really understand the message, but I tried entering the entire string in the terminal which did not work. Then I tried fsck /dev/sda9
hoping that would solve this problem. I've sometimes done this and it seemed to work in the past.
But it must have been the wrong thing to do because then I started having the multiple crashes etc.

So, now I am so far in the weeds I can't find a way out. Aside from the error messages and the general gumming up of my system, I can boot and use my machine. But I still have not done the long list of updates to make my system stable. I think there were a few other things I've done, but I can't recall them.

If the screenshot is not readable I'll post the full image if necessary.[IMG]file:///home/jess/Desktop/Ubuntu%20error%20Screenshot01-12-2019.png[/IMG]

[IMG]file:///home/jess/Desktop/Ubuntu%20error%20Screenshot01-12-2019.png[/IMG]
My most recent attempt to update failed and I got the error message showing in the attached screen shot. I'd like to get this fixed. If anyone can guide me through it, I'll appreciate it.

Issue with apt update and segfaults

I'm confused and google didn't enlighten, so here goes....
I got this error over night:
/etc/cron.daily/ubuntu-advantage-tools:
E: The package cache file is corrupted, it has the wrong hash

So I did a bit of digging and it suggested I had an issue with the files in /var/lib/apt/lists and to remove them and re-create them using apt update.
So:

Unable to boot computer 10.04.4 Lucid USB Flash drive

$

0
For one of my projects I need to use Ubuntu 10.04.4 x86 installation.

I have created a boot-up USB using the 'start-up disk creator'(from ubuntu 16.04 LTS) from iso downloaded from http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid/

When I plug in this USB into the computer I wish to install, then re-order the boot order with this USB Flash Drive as first, (irrespective of whether it's a new or old computer) it says insert valid boot media/ insert boot media etc.

I have tried on several different computers (32 bit/ 64 bit), and also with different iso's downloaded i.e. with both x86-64/x86, but the USB Flash drive doesn't get read at all, the BIOS just says, -- 'please insert boot media'.

The contents of the USB looks like this:
Code:

[Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS i386]# ls

autorun.inf  dists    isolinux    pics  preseed            ubuntu
casper      install  md5sum.txt  pool  README.diskdefines  wubi.exe

Please SUGGEST -- what's wrong?? (very urgent)

thanks.

[SOLVED] cannot install 18.04 - magic number / load kernel error

As the title really. I can get to the grub screen but when I select to install I get invalid magic number and need to load the kernel first.

So what I've tried....

turn off secure boot in bios and allow legacy
checked MD5sum of the iso download. all good.
Tried 3 different thumbdrives.
created the bootable disk with dd, startup disk creator, unetbootin (both linux and win7)

All fail.

Suggestions?

Making permanent change to grub boot menuentry?

$
0
0
I dual boot with VeraCrypted Windows, and after I made some change to the Windows 10 grub menuentry in the beginning this has been working fine, i.e. changing the menuentry to point from EFI\Microsoft\Boot\Bootmgfw.efi to instead EFI\VeraCrypt\DcsBoot.efi.

Something, I am guessing an update, has reverted this back to how it was initially, so that the same entry that was working now makes Windows attempt repairs. Thankfully I can still boot Windows 10 by hitting F12 on boot to bring up the boot menu and selecting VeraCrypt boot loader.

I am not sure how I edited the menuentry in the beginning, but I have been trying to use Grub Customiser this time, and I have edited and saved the Windows entry as:

Screenshot from 2019-01-22 16-59-38.jpg

And I can see this is reflected in /boot/grub/grub.cfg as:

Code:

menuentry "Windows Boot Manager (on /dev/sda1)" --class windows --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-efi-E625-C979' {
        insmod part_gpt
        insmod fat
        set root='hd0,gpt1'
        if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,gpt1 --hint-efi=hd0,gpt1 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,gpt1  E625-C979
        else
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root E625-C979
        fi
        chainloader \EFI\VeraCrypt\DcsBoot.efi
}

Still when I boot, when I select that menu entry Windows starts attemtping repairs, and if I select 'e' on the menuentry, I can see it is still set to try and boot EFI\Microsoft\Boot\Bootmgfw.efi. I rebooted and input sudo update-grub, but this did not change anything.

How can I make the changes I made be reflected in the actual menuentry, and better yet, how can I make it so that this is a last changing, even through future updates?

Install full Ubuntu 18.10 desktop on smartphones with Intel

Hi folks, bored about limits in Android I'd like to use Ubuntu on my smartphone!!
But I want full, desktop Ubuntu version not Ubuntu touch or other castrates version of Ubuntu!
Nowadays Smartphones have reached advanced HWs so what if I buy a smartphone with Intel CPU and install the full Ubuntu on it?
Is there a way to "adapt" then it for smartphone? (Adding touchscreen, call, GPS... Packages?)
In this way I can really totally substitute my desktop with my phone having 100% full Ubuntu (can I mirror smartphone screen on TV/monitor to work better) with the whole original packages and, at same time, using it as mobile (maybe switching smartphone desktop between "Android style" and Ubuntu classic desktop)
Someone tried it?

[ubuntu] Ubuntu not booting up after Kernel update

$

Hi community,

I am new to Ubuntu and to linux . I searched on this forum and other forums before posting this question. Some similar questions use very technical linux language in the replies, which I don't quite understand.

I have ubuntu 18.10, it came with kernel 4.18.0.10.11 (wifi works, touchscreen doesn't work), ubuntu self updated to 4.18.0.13.14, I noticed an improvement on performance (runs smoother, apps seem to open faster), but wifi stopped working, and touchscreen issue not fixed. I uninstalled 4.18.0.13.14 and currently using 4.18.0.10.11.

I tried updating to 4.20.3 using ukuu, but it is not booting up and the following error comes up when it is trying to boot up:
"
error: /boot/vmlinuz-4.20.3-042003-generoc has invalid signature
error: you need to load the kernel first.

Press any key to continue..._
"

I have tried enabling / disabling secure boot on bios with no luck.

I would like to update to newer kernels to see if the touchscreen issue is fixed, plus improving performance while keeping the wifi working. Any newer kernel tried using ukuu gives me the same error. I have also tried manual update with the same results.

Any suggestions or help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

[server] Installing Ubuntu Server 18.04 - some questions to make a better start for version-II

$
0
0
Goodday Ubuntu-experts,
I am trying to make a home server and I have a very basal question that is perfectly fit for a forum because it is both essential as basal and I can not find the exact answer on the fora until now. I am fairly handy around windows and MacOS but relatively new on linux.

The situation:
I am trying to make a home server for 3 services;

  • Owncloud
  • Plex media server
  • Samba LAN server


The hardware I have:

  • Old but sufficient; motherboard, CPU and RAM (not important)
  • 2,5 TB hard disks (1x 1,5tb and 1x 1tb)


I already made server version 1.0. The server was up and running and providing all the needed services. I am contemplating how I will proceed now. I will make server 2.0 (fresh install). Now I added the secnd harddrive. I wanted to install ubuntu on a logical volume. What I did; during the install I made a LVM from the two availlable hard drives. From this volume group (2,5 Tb) I made several logical volumes. I mounted all selectable mounts (e.g. /Var, /Home). But if I do that I can not continue. Here is where I am stuck!

The concrete questions I have:

  • How can I continue? I do not seem able to mount the /boot on a logical volume?!
  • How much space should I reserve for what mounts? Like I said I am only using owncloud, plex and samba. I would like to use most of the availlable space for these services.


That was it for now. I would be very grateful for an answer on these questions. Then I can finally make progress for my second attempt to make my house-server 2.0.

Greets,

Pepper662
