| roficimo | Hi, I haven't had any success with the online fixes for checking battery state freeze when going to 12.04 from 11.10 | 00:53 |
| Phryq | hey | 07:48 |
| Phryq | is there a way todisable the guest account in 12.10 unity? | 07:49 |
| jaspreet | hi | 12:54 |
| jaspreet | I need a help | 12:54 |
| holstein | jaspreet: ask, and we will see if a volunteer can indeed help you | 12:55 |
| jaspreet | I got a problem in ubuntu 12.04 | 12:55 |
| jaspreet | Continuing will remount your / filesystem in read/write mode and mount any other filesystem defined in /etc/fstab | 12:55 |
| holstein | jaspreet: whats that? | 12:56 |
| holstein | a message? | 12:56 |
| holstein | when do you see it? | 12:56 |
| philinux | holstein: maybe he's trying fsck on mounted file system | 12:56 |
| jaspreet | actually there is a problem with hard disk. When I install ubuntu 12.04 n after boort got a black screen but in recovery mode gave me above message. Windows 7 is working fine on my computer | 12:57 |
| holstein | jaspreet: i would try a coulpe things related to the graphics with a live CD | 12:58 |
| holstein | !nomodeset | 12:58 |
| ubot93 | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 12:58 |
| jaspreet | ok | 12:58 |
| holstein | you might need to reinstall, depending on what you have done to try and "fix" your issue | 12:58 |
| holstein | jaspreet: feel fre and elaborate and one of the volunteers can help | 12:59 |
| jaspreet | actually before I installed ubuntu 11.10 | 12:59 |
| jaspreet | den one day ubuntu gave a message " ubunable to mount / filesystem" | 13:00 |
| jaspreet | then after lot of efforts I format my computer and reinstall 12.04 | 13:00 |
| jaspreet | Once it get started but unable to install any package because i got an error /var/apt/list not in read/write mode. Also got a message of hard disk problem. After reboot I got same problem of unable to mount / filesystem. Then i tried to run it in recovery mode . In that i got a message " Continuing will remount your / filesystem in read/write mode and mount any other filesystem defined in /etc/fstab. Do you wish to conti | 13:00 |
| jaspreet | after that black screen which shows many errors of errors. Here is the snapshot of that errors: http://www.uploadgeek.com/share-84FE_5154020C.html | 13:01 |
| holstein | jaspreet: i dont follow.. before you installed ubuntu you got a message from ubuntu? | 13:01 |
| jaspreet | Firstly I instaled 11.10 | 13:02 |
| holstein | i would test with a live CD.. if the live CD is running fine then you might want to test the hardware | 13:02 |
| jaspreet | During that I got message ubunable to mount / filesystem | 13:03 |
| holstein | you could have a bad hard drive causing those errors.. or a bad filesystem | 13:03 |
| holstein | !fsck | 13:03 |
| ubot93 | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 13:03 |
| jaspreet | live CD is working fine on my computer | 13:03 |
| holstein | jaspreet: so, if the live CD is fine, you know ubuntu *is* capable of running on the system | 13:04 |
| holstein | you can aim your troubleshooting in that direction | 13:04 |
| jaspreet | @ubot93 where should I apply the command? In recovery mode? | 13:05 |
| holstein | jaspreet: that was from me | 13:06 |
| holstein | jaspreet: ubot93 is a bot.. i suggested that when you said you were getting a black boot | 13:06 |
| holstein | but, you are not | 13:06 |
| holstein | jaspreet: i would test the hard drive, and run fsck | 13:06 |
| jaspreet | where should i run fsck | 13:07 |
| holstein | jaspreet: i would ignore nomodeset since its *not* a graphics driver issue | 13:07 |
| holstein | from above ^^ | 13:07 |
| holstein | The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; | 13:07 |
| jaspreet | ok I need to restart my computer | 13:08 |
| jaspreet | I will apply these commans then | 13:08 |
| jaspreet | i will be back | 13:08 |
| jaspreet | hi | 13:31 |
| jaspreet | i nee hep I got a problem in ubuntu 12.04. whenever I try to instaal any packages or apply sudo commands got a messsage: Read only filesystem | 13:33 |
| jaspreet | please help me | 13:34 |
| jaspreet | #ubuntu | 13:34 |
| holstein | jaspreet: ? | 13:38 |
| holstein | jaspreet: so, the last issue is fine then? | 13:38 |
| jaspreet | no I forgot to tell you Whenever I try any coomand I got a message: Read only filesystem | 13:39 |
| holstein | jaspreet: http://askubuntu.com/questions/105793/why-has-my-file-system-turned-read-only-after-updates | 13:39 |
| holstein | i agree.. "failing hard disk" | 13:39 |
| holstein | jaspreet: i would test my hard drive..i would want that test to take over an hour | 13:39 |
| jaspreet | how to test that | 13:40 |
| holstein | jaspreet: sometimes, there are tests in the bios.. i use the ultimate boot cd, or smart tests from an ubuntu live CD | 13:40 |
| jaspreet | ok | 13:41 |
| jaspreet | Ok I will come back after that test | 13:42 |
| jaspreet | please stay there if possible | 13:43 |
| jaspreet | If my problem is solved I will be back to thank you | 13:43 |
| jaspreet | :) | 13:43 |
| holstein | jaspreet: if you have a bad hard drive, there is nothing a volunteer here can do | 13:44 |
| holstein | jaspreet: you can try #ubuntu if this channel is not active | 13:44 |
| jaspreet | ok I need to reboot my computer for test | 13:45 |
| jaspreet | lets see what happen | 13:45 |
| raub | What would make a 12.04LTS box start to send a ton of dhcprequests to the dhcp server? | 13:57 |
| raub | Only one machine is doing that | 13:57 |
| raub | It is sending them at least 3x a minute | 13:58 |
| geirha | perhaps the dhcp server is out of leases? | 14:04 |
| raub | How to find out? It too is an ubuntu box | 14:05 |
| raub | I do not think we ran out of ips though | 14:05 |
| raub | The range for the dhcp is 100-200, and we have at most 40 machines here | 14:06 |
| geirha | could still be exhausted. Might be some ips leased that is not in use, but has not expired yet | 14:07 |
| raub | Good point | 14:07 |
| raub | The range = 192.168.11.100 192.168.11.220 | 14:08 |
| raub | Lovely: I did fgrep 192.168.11.204 /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases|wc -l and got 44 back | 14:09 |
| raub | Shouldn't I have just one lease with that IP, whether is is being used or not? | 14:10 |
| geirha | Sure it only contains active leases? | 14:43 |
| geirha | On a side note, grep can count lines too, with the -c flag | 14:43 |
| raub | geirha: you are right | 15:07 |
| raub | I did awk '$1 == "lease"' /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases |sort|uniq|wc -l | 15:07 |
| raub | and got 210 | 15:08 |
| raub | Well, that dhcp server is dealing ips for 3 different subnets | 15:08 |
| raub | Would each of them affect the other? | 15:08 |
| raub | Ok, i refined my search | 15:11 |
| raub | For the subnet in question, 119 | 15:11 |
| geirha | is the client still pounding? | 15:15 |
