[02:10] xubuntu 1404 login succedd first time after startup, but when I use switch user to login with normal user(not root or guest-session), it flashes and then backs to login interface. [02:40] in gparted, why does my encrypted hdd show up as almost completely used? [02:41] but it is actually nearly empty space [02:41] *nearly all unused space === plaindave is now known as PlainDave === ErichEickmeyer_ is now known as ErichEickmeyer [11:11] hello guys [11:12] hello [11:14] goodbye [12:17] OI [12:17] SOU NOVO AQUI [12:18] ANY [12:18] HELPE === pleia2_ is now known as pleia2 === pavlushka_ is now known as pavlushka [17:19] Its night here [17:19] installing my XUBUNTU Desktop [17:19] #exit [19:19] sudo apt-get install transformice [19:19] oigan [20:50] good evening @all [20:52] I need help with the latest Xubuntu installed on an old Dell Inspiron mini. During boot up the OS freezes and nothing happens. How to check for the reason? I'm new to Xubuntu [20:57] did you check that the iso was burnt properly? [20:58] the first 2 or 3 times it booted as expected. Since that I have the problem. Also a new installation had no success. [20:59] I used a jump drive. [21:02] that sounds to me like it is a hardware issue. More that likely memory [21:06] now i saw "ACPI Error: [CAPB] Namespace looku failure, AE_ALREADY_EXISTS [21:07] I run Memtest now [21:09] that sounds like a good idea [21:20] HerrJensen: just a quick guess. as the inspiron mini doesn't support 64 bit - did you install xubuntu 32 bit? [21:22] yes 32 bit [21:25] okay. is this acpi error the only message occurring? pressing ESC during boot might show you the boot messages. [21:26] after the memtest I'll try a new boot [21:26] ok [21:28] complete no errors [21:31] ACPI Error Method parse/execution failed [\_SB.PCI0._OSC] [21:31] Starting Accounts Service.. [21:31] Since that nothing happens [21:37] "Starting Accounts Service" is the last message shown after the system boot completed. [21:38] did you try switching with ctrl+alt+f7 [21:39] or go to first tty with ctrl+alt+f1 [21:39] and see if there are either some messages or at least a text based login prompt [21:44] as soon as I see XUBUNTU and the load ring it freezes. When to press the keys? [21:49] when booting with option "upstart" It asks for a login in "DOS" [21:52] press the keys while the loading ring spins [21:53] not sure though what that "upstart" option is [21:53] OK [21:56] since the first time it freezed I get a boot menu where I can select "Ubuntu" or "Ubuntu with options" or "memtest" [22:00] that "ubuntu" option is the right one [22:01] pressing any of the key combinations mentioned it goes back to text and stays there [22:03] meanwhile i read about that ACPI errors and found out that they are ignorable [22:03] so that's not the root of your problem [22:03] ok [22:04] you could try going with "ubuntu with options" and then selecting the rescue mode [22:04] here's some info on that: https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Recovery-Modus/ [22:05] OT: usually I'm the root of my problems ;-) [22:05] :) [22:05] maybe the rescue mode helps getting back to your system [22:06] and afterwards to check if there are any logged errors [22:07] in addition to that asking at ubuntuusers.de forum might help [22:07] people there are kinda nice and maybe more helpful than i am :s [22:09] I'll try that thanks for your help so far. [22:09] It freezes during fsck [22:10] I'll continue tomorrow. Too tired. Thanks @all for your help.
