Well, turning off ipv.6 at bootup hasn't worked for me. I tend to lose wireless after coming out of suspend, and that hasn't changed.

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: virtualbox-ose I installed the dependencies and then VirtualBox-ose 2.2.4 r47978 from source on Karmic (9.10). I could run it initially only as sudo because a vboxusers group hadn't been created during the install. I added the group, and my user to the group. Vbox would start, but the virtual machines (eg winxp) would not. Turned out the kernel module had not been compiled. "modprobe vboxdrv" fixed that, but then the permissions were insufficient. A question https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox- ose/+question/74867">here indicated that changing permission on /dev/vboxdrv to 666 might help. That does solve the problem for that particular session, but rebooting reverts to 660. I'm saw somewhere that the kernel module not being compiled is related to the fact that vboxusers is not created at the right time during install. This report I think is related to these older ones, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox- ose/+bug/147076">Bug#147076 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox- ose/+bug/137599">Bug #137599. #147076 has the suggestion to do "sudo chgrp vboxusers /dev/vboxdrv" Again, this works, just like changing perms to 666, but is not persistent between boots. I should probably also mention that the file /etc/init.d/vboxdrv is never created.

[Bug 93281] Re: "Suspend failed" message gives false advice
I get that error message regularly in Hardy 8.04. "Your computer failed to suspend. Check the help file for common problems." It's definitely a low priority because it doesn't actually seem to affect function. But what irritates me is that "check help file" business. WHICH HELP FILE? Maybe the term "help file" could be made into a link to the right one. Or it could be turned into the full path to the relevant file.

I hate to keep being the wet blanket here, but . . . my /etc/hosts file looks okay (127.0.0.1 localhost, 127.0.1.1 ). But I continue to have the gksu problem. It affects not just the upgrade manager.

This is what finally worked to get my hard drive back: All done as root: umount gvfs-fuse-daemon Change ownership of backup file generated by SimpleBackup on network drive, and move to another location.

[Bug 227753] [NEW] gvfs reports root partition 100% full
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gvfs-fuse This is a major problem since it prevents any operation that wants to store to the filesystem, including /tmp. gvfs seems to have decided that one of my network drives is in my root partition. That makes it think the root partition is full. (it isn't, really.) A backup, made with Simple Backup, is in /mnt/mediavault/backup /computer-backup-filename.ful . That dir and backup now show up no matter what. I can't umount the partition, even using -f. I moved the backup out of that dir, and it still lists as being in that location, although it no longer is. In desperation, I tried to remove ~/.gvfs, hoping that would straighten gvfs out, but it won't let me since the resource is busy. I'm running, 8.04. gvfs-fuse 0.2.3-0ubuntu5 This is similar to, but not the same as these bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/217389 "root partition usage reaches 100% without reason." In that case extra backup files weren't noticed and could be removed once they were. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-utils/+bug/211789 "disk usage analyzer shows twice disk capacity" Deselecting gvfs-fuse-daemon and rebooting did not solve the problem for me. Also, this bug is said to be "fixed upstream" but whatever is causing my problem is not fixed :( How can I wake gvfs up to the fact that 2.2GB are NOT on my root partition, but somewhere else entirely?! ** Affects: gvfs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gvfs reports root partition 100% full https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227753 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 217389] Re: Root partition usage reaches 100% without reason
I too use Simple Backup, but I'm not sure the problem is as Jan Rybka says. In my case, it's not just background jobs without notices. gvfs- fuse-daemon thinks the root partition is full, and even rebooting doesn't help (so not just a matter of restarting the service). Since the partition is "full", I can't do the simplest operation that wants to store anything to the filesystem, so this is a huge problem! As far as I can tell, what happened is this: After my last sbackup (the first under Hardy), the 2GB backup file was somehow seen as being on my root partition, even though it's really on a network drive under /mnt. I cannot umount it, even with -f. It says it's not mounted. I tried moving the backup to a different directory on the network drive, so that the backup dir it insisted on seeing was empty. It still showed a 2GB backup in that dir. I tried uninstalling sbackup. gvfs still thinks there's a 2GB file there. I'm running 8.04 with all updates installed on a Sharp MP30 laptop. This is an oldish (2005) slowish computer, and using Gimp for a huge file, plus Firefox with multiple tabs, as I was doing ... :S , can really slow down the system. It hasn't crashed, so I didn't think this was the problem, but who knows. If there's any workaround I can apply before the bug is fixed, please let me know! Delete ~/.gvfs for instance? Anything??

I tried setting up a new printer, R220-test, with the URI as suggested. Otherwise, same driver, etc. It worked, I made it default, printed again, then suspended. When I came back from suspend, the old Stylus-R220 definition was working fine and the new default R220-test was "unplugged" ! $lsusb Bus 002 Device 001: ID : Bus 001 Device 003: ID 04b8:0005 Seiko Epson Corp.

Then both R220-test and Stylus-R220 come up as "unplugged". lsusb shows nothing on Bus001 or 002.

[Bug 35638] Re: Printer is not detected properly over USB
I'm suddenly having major issues with my USB-connected printer. I have a Sharp MP30 laptop (from 2005), Epson Stylus Photo R220 printer, and running Hardy 8.04 with all updates applied as of Apr 20. (As a user, not a developer, I don't know what the problem really is or whether this is the correct thread.) Before I read this thread, this was the problem: after a cold start, everything worked, but after suspend, the system thought the printer was "unplugged." Other USB devices, like a thumbdrive, would not work either. I have two USB ports, and either one would become nonfunctional after trying to talk to the printer. Restarting cupsys, restarting X, nothing worked. Only a complete shutdown and boot up made the USB ports available again. After I read this thread and tried some of the diagnostics after suspending, it turned out that $lsusb or $lpinfo -v somehow woke the port back up and it would print. So what's the deal?? Any command to poll the printer or usb reminds the system of something and everything works again?? Bizarre. I hope I'm not the only person with this problem and it's something that can get sorted out. I've been using Ubuntu since Dapper, and this is the first time anything like this has happened. Some of the output from diagnostics: --- Cold boot, printing via usb cable works: --- $lsusb Bus 002 Device 001: ID : Bus 001 Device 002: ID 04b8:0005 Seiko Epson Corp.

[Bug 213476] Re: new partition naming breaks paths
Followup: it's not quite what I thought Since the default nautilus view doesn't show permissions and owners, I didn't realize the "12 GB Volume" was owned by root, which explains why Tbird can't write to it. There's still a problem, though. Trying "sudo chown -R me /media/data" said "operation not permitted". It seems like root ought to be able to give ownership to someone else? I unmounted it and then mounted it as a user, which changed both owner and group to that user. Then, for instance, Tbird could write to it without a problem. But having to unmount and remount partitions just to make them accessible to the logged in user seems less than ideal. Maybe I have some mistake in my fstab?

[Bug 213476] [NEW] new partition naming breaks paths
Public bug reported: release: 8.04 Please note: I DON'T KNOW which package is responsible for the behavior. I'm GUESSING: gnome-system-tools 2.22.0-0ubuntu6 In previous releases, partitions show up in nautilus or on the desktop using their mountpoint. E.g. /media/data/ shows up as "data" on the desktop icon. In Hardy, the same thing is showing up as "12 GB Volume". This is ugly and for some reason rename is blanked out even for root, but it wouldn't be a major problem by itself. However, that also seems to be the name now expected in paths, and that's a huge problem. For instance, I imported my old Thunderbird settings to my clean install of Hardy with a clean install of Thunderbird. Even though in "Server settings" the path to mail is /media/data/mail and even though that's the same path I get if I browse to the folder, Thunderbird just trundles and can't find it. I asked about this on the forum (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=748172).
