Hi

It's a bit long-winded, but here's the background.

I've installed Ubuntu Server as a VM inside a FreeNAS jail (why? because I use crashplan and this is an easier way to go with FreeNAS. BUT...

It booted into the OS, and appears to be working now, though it kicked out the same errors on boot with hd1 and then sdc1. I've run short SMART tests, which is a great tool, but now will look at next...

Ok, now I'm getting a little excited...



The --force and --add command appear to have worked, the array is rebuilding now.



Eek, let's hope that it works. However, as I said above, this...

Has anything changed:


root@sysresccd /root % mdadm -D /dev/md0
/dev/md0:
Version : 1.2
Raid Level : raid0
Total Devices : 2
Persistence : Superblock is persistent

Nope, that didn't work. I'll post the output of some of the commands you suggested above and see what, if anything, has changed.

First, though, some extra info from the boot sequence which I...

OK, that's done, this is what I got on the final command:


root@sysresccd /root % mdadm --assemble --verbose /dev/md0 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1
mdadm: looking for devices for /dev/md0
mdadm:...

Yes, that would be my preference too. I know I'm being lazy, but could you give me the command for that? (3 kids under 7 all missing their movies and tv shows here!)




mdadm --examine...

OK, here we go:


root@sysresccd /root % cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid1] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [raid10]
md0 : inactive sda1[0](S) sdb1[1](S)

Sorry, I've not been clear. I'm not totally au fait with RAID, sometime ago (a year or two?), I added another disk which was to be used as a spare. I can't for the life of me remember if I...

Hi

Very amateur linux / server person here. My server has done me proud for the last 5 or 6 years, but have recently lost one disk. I wasn't aware until after the event of the default setting...

Many many thanks. Though I haven't had a chance to fix them all yet, and there still seems to be some confusion, you have put me on the right track.

I think the problem is that my old KDE...

Have just completed a new install of xubuntu 12.04.

I had kubuntu but have now install xubuntu on the / and left /home partition intact.

I prefer to use keyboard shortcuts where possible....

Hi

I store my passwords using the 'unecrypted file' option and now what to start again with a new install of xubuntu, but want a copy of all my passwords.

Is the unencrypted file a single file...

Thanks for the response, unfortunately no joy. It seems to be exactly the same as before: I can just about hear myself, but it's very broken up and barely audible.

Hi, This all worked great when I built 11.04, but now have upgraded to 11.10 and this isn't working.

If I set the values above to 2,3 for e.g., they revert back to default after I've tried to use...

Yes, I'm using the T not the GT. I don't know what it might be, but I can do without the candy for a couple of weeks... as you say, when 11.10 comes out it'll hopefully be fixed.

Maybe it's that...

Hey

Really pleased to have found this page, thanks for all the work and posting.

You forgot to mention that the touchpad is now properly working.

My only gripe at the moment is that after...

Thanks Sumski.

If you're looking for reliability not 'bleeding edge' then you shouldn't have the backports added. I have little time for all this as well, but I'm conscious that there is a trade off between wanting...

I wouldn't say this was solved exactly, but the server now does what I want it to.

Hi

The backend I've set up for mythtv won't hibernate/sleep. This has nothing to do with mythtv itself as I set this up as a server 1st and the problem existed then.

I've knocked about the...

Thanks

I'd had the same issue for months on the laptop I use for work (no great need for Flash, but irritating not having it).

I didn't know this plugin existed.

Thanks and thanks again.

Hi

Setting up skype on a mythbuntu 10.04 frontend using a touchcam n1 with integrated microphone

This works no problem on my kubuntu laptop, but on the other machine the sound from the...

I did a clean install of lucid 10.04 and realised that if I unchecked lucid-updates, but kept lucid-security there would be no updating of the xserver.

If I had kept it checked, the only relevant...

Thanks for posting this. It seems to be working a treat. For a moment I thought I was living in a Windows virus world again!
