http://ubuntuforums.org – Hello. I have a dualboot of both Xubuntu and Ubuntu (12.04) and when I boot with Xubuntu it simply will not load. After going to the blue xubuntu loading screen it turns into a black screen with white raw text messages and the following error comes up: Code: @[Timestamp] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Asking for cache data failed [Timestamp] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Asking for cache data failed Code: [Timestamp + 30 ish] Repeat [Timestamp + 30 ish] Repeat And it keeps looping for ages without achieving anything. I have tried simply booting in recovery mode, but without actually doing anything, it di (Hardware)

I got windows xp and xubuntu 12.10, which are installed alongside on the harddrive and it uses the usual boot manager (GRUB) so I can choose which one to use. Then, I ran out of space disk in xubuntu and I believe that I literally have zero space. but after turning on computer again, xubuntu could not load and it gave a black screen saying 'checking battery state' and it lasted like forever.

I'm newbie with ubuntu, I tried to install ubuntu, at the beginning xubuntu work for the first upgrade to xubuntu 12.04, but after the reboot, no winxp media center ether Xubuntu won't start and I have a screen Ctrl+Alt+Del nothing else. I read a little about, maybe the sata enabled on the bios.

I have installed krusader under Xubuntu and there I stored an ssh-password in the cache.

Now the password changed, and I have no option to re-enter the password. krusader only tells me, that the authentification failed.

Where do I find the kde security center in Xubuntu?

I installed Xubuntu-desktop over Ubuntu 11.10 and now when I shutdown my system or start it up, I see Xubuntu's bootsplash screen. Is simply removing the plymouth theme for Xubuntu corrects the problem and brings back default Ubuntu's? I don't want to 'experiment' thereby breaking something during the process.

I am on OS X 10.8.2 and Virtualbox 4.2.6 and would like to try Xubuntu 12.10 64-bit in Virtualbox. I created an Ubuntu 64-bit VM and attached the iso as the primary master under IDE.

I tried upgrading the Ubuntu on my trusty netbook and found 11.10 was way too slow. So I switched to xubuntu by installing the xubuntu-desktop package and then following the crazy instructions here : http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce

Now when I try to start up I get the xubuntu load-screen.

Well i installed Xubuntu on my system having a dual boot with Xubuntu and windows xp but when i select to boot on Xubuntu it freezes and gets a message saying that the file hal.dll in system32 cant be found. Before showing me this message i tryed to uninstall the Xubuntu inside from windows xp because several problems showed up after installing Xubuntu.

The following works for me:

mysql -u 'root' -h 8.8.8.88 mo -e 'UPDATE `path_last_updated` SET timestamp="2012-01-03 00:00:00"'

However, the following does not:

TIMESTAMP=`date "+%Y-%m-%d-%T"` mysql -u 'root' -h 8.8.8.88 mo -e 'UPDATE `path_last_updated` SET timestamp=$TIMESTAMP'

How would I insert the timestamp from unix into my mysql table?

Update:

TIMESTAMP=`date "+%Y-%m-%d %T"
