[solved] Bash shell... does not start with user name, but used to...!

when I start a console, logged in as user, it always used to start with
user@hostname ~$
Suddenly, and I cannot recall having done anything that could lead to the issue, konsole will always start as
bash3.2$                                                     
even after many reboots, this is still the case.
whoami shows my user name. I can su to root, and from there to my username, but never directly from bash.
Occasionally, starting a program like KDE partition manager fails with the error message the program su could not be found. but it is as I said occasional.
I am quite a newbie to Linux, so I am clueless. Can someone help me..? I tried googling, but I seem to be the only one in the WWW that goofed up to such an extent..! and searches are quite unrevealing.
I am installing Linux From scratch using arch linux as base system, but I am just following The Book to the letter and don't think that caused the problem.

@weasel8...
That is THE trouble. And I take back my words, it was during the linux from scratch install that I botched that file...! I was supposed to make a new bashrc file in the LFS directory, but I went wrong on the commands and I think I ended up removing the Arch Linux file...!
If it is to be found, it should be in the etc directory, right..? I looked there and could not find it. Did I look in the right place...?
What can I do...?

  • [solved] "adsl.service" does not start with "netctl" sometimes

    I recently moved from "netcfg" to "netctl".
    Solution. I copied "/usr/lib/systemd/system/adsl.service" into a new service and added a line
    After=[email protected]
    under "[Unit]"

    It goes definitely against any logic.
    The service file looks good, but I've copied it to /usr/lib/systemd/system/bdsl.service. Same contents - and the new one launches succesfully.
    I've deleted the original ...adsl.service file, verified that it disappeared, copied it back from the new bdsl.service file, and it still does not launch.
    [EDIT]
    I've erased the drive, restored the system from a 1 week old backup, started it - everything worked. Then I'v updated the whole system, including the rp-pppoe package, and the adsl service is failing again.
    Downgrading solves the problem. Should I file a bug report?

    Hello nkrlw,
    It may be that AutoFill is disabled in Safari, or that Private Browsing is on.
    Go to Settings > Safari > Passwords & AutoFill and make sure that Names and Passwords is on.
    Go to your Home screen and open Safari. If Safari is black or dark instead of white or gray, Private Browsing is on. Safari doesn't save account names and passwords when Private Browsing is on. To turn off Private Browsing:
    On iPad, tap the the plus icon in the upper-right corner of the Safari page, then tap Private in the lower-left corner.
    On iPhone and iPod touch, tap  in the lower-right corner of the Safari page, then tap Private in the lower-left corner.

  • [SOLVED] (gnome) NetworkManager does not start on login

    Hello!
    Like the title says, the NetworkManager utility does not start with gnome on login. Every time I log in I have to start it manually by going into the terminal and running su, then running NetworkManager. I have googled and searched in the wiki, but did not find a good answer. Some threads talk about doing something with the gnome-session but it did not work for me.
    So, which conf file do I need to edit to have it start on startup?
    I hope I provided enough information.
    Thanks in advance for the answers.

  • "Layer 1 does not start with a new cell" replicator error

    Hi All,
    I recently sent a dual layer +R DVD off to our replication house and their system is returning a message that says: "Layer 1 of DVD-Video does not start with a new cell".
    I know from reading that the dual-layer breakpoint must be set to the end of a cell, but what does the word "cell" translate into for DVDSP4?
    I had the DVD DL+R set to Automatic and Non-Seamless for output for the break point. Should I just try setting the break point manually at the beginning or ending of a track that would be dubbed as just a little more than half the size of the content? (I know in OTP, the Layer 0 has to be bigger than Layer 1)
    Please Help!
    Cheers,
    Dusty

    Thanks both of you for your replies.
    Eric, I am currently exporting DDPs to send in to the replicator. I also emailed them asking if they accept this format for delivery. (Which I would hope they would, as it is, an answer to DLT of sorts) Thanks for bringing this up, DDP is new to me, as this is our first DL project for replication.
    Drew, to answer your reply, yes I have two viable markers (chapter markers) that show up in black, not grayed out, in the tab you mentioned under formatting. I chose manual break point selection for this last disc I burned and chose chapter 4 of that track. (chapter 4 and chapter 5 of track 6 are only options) I have to assume that the "automatic" setting was selecting chapter 5, as it had to see that as the last viable marker available to select, as described in the DVDSP4 manual.
    DVDSP4 says that all markers are considered cells- Or actually that tracks are cells and that the markers within them make up more cells. So my question, outside of DDP option, would be, "what truly constitutes a cell boundary in DVDSP4?" Is it the markers within the tracks or the beginning or ends of the tracks themselves?
    As a side note, I burned the disc that received the error, "Layer 1 doesn't start with a new cell" from an IMG i created from DVDSP4 through Disk Utility. Word is that IMG's somehow don't include breakpoint information.
    So at this point I don't know if it is the IMG or the fact that DVDSP4 wants the break at one of two possible chapter markers in track 6.
    (Some more background- this is a TV show season DVD, with thirteen tracks of video, each with 12-14 chapter markers a piece.)
    Any more thoughts to help clear the air on what constitutes a true new cell boundary?
    Thanks sooo much Eric and Drew, I know this a long read.
    Cheers,
    Dusty

    It looks like you are getting this error when trying to use the RequestDispatcher. There are two different flavors of the RequestDispatcher :ServletRequest.getRequestDispatcher that will take a relative path and ServletContext.getRequestDispatcher that will only take absolute paths (ie start with a '/').
    If yoy are trying the use the second version of RequestDispatcher you'll need to adjust the path to an absolute path.

  • Solved: Quick search does not work with FF4

    [https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B1WuaaPz4AKtMDk1MDA2ODktN2NlYy00NTg2LWJmOGUtNDI3ODdiYzQzODli&hl=en failed quick search example]
    As you can see from the image above, I have a quick search defined for 'am' which is set as a 'keyword' for an Amazon.com search. When I type the keyword followed by a search term it it displays an error page with a path to some resource in a .jar file.
    Note the save URL does not include a %s. It used the previously document behavior of having any text that followed the keyword appended to the keyword URL.
    When I add the %s to the end of the saved quick search URL, the quick search works correctly. This change confused me for a while until I dug into it and now I need to check and update all of my quick searches. :-(

    Hi qzy,
    When you enable anonymous access in SharePoint, did you want the anonymous user have the permission
    to access the site content such as library or just need them to be capable to search? You may need to check your configurations according to the document below based on your requirement.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263363.aspx
    When you enable search for anonymous user for the site collection, is it a team site or publishing
    site? By default team sites are designed for intranet site so search on Team Site with default value will be prompted for
    credentials because “OSSSearchResults.aspx” page is configued to publish results based on “LayoutsPageBaseClass(Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls)” class. The LayoutsPageBase Class Represents an application page (sometimes
    called a "_layouts" page). If you want to do that in team site, you need to remove the “LayoutsPageBase Class(Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls)” from “OSSSearchResults.aspx” page, which is not a recommended way.
    Publising Sites are desinged for internet site so “Search/Results.aspx”
    is configured in a way where it can deliver search results for
    anonymous users. If in your scenario it’s for publishing site, you need to ensure that the content which should appear in the search result is visible for anonymous user. (Follow the “Enable anonymous access for individual lists”
    part in the link above)
    You can also create a search center to see if the user can get search result there. Regarding the
    second issue, you need to check the crawl logs and ULS logs to find the clue.
    For more information, please refer to:

  • ABAP WebDynpro - ArchiveLink - PDF Error: "File does not start with..."

    Hey community,
    I have a WebDynpro application in which I want to show a Archive document.
    I'm using FM 'ARCHIV_GET_TABLE' and then FM 'SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING'.
    But I only get the error message: (see also attached)
    File does not open with "%PDF-".
    Local\EWH...
    Attachment two shows, how the data is stored in TOA03.
    Document type is FAX .
    I tried several FM and nothing worked.
    Does anyone have an idea?
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Hi Florian,

  • Photoshop Elements 7 does not start (after 3 years i used it)

    Yesterday, when i opened my Photoshop Elements 7 (I use it on my PC from 3 years), after the splash screen, an alert windows says to me that there is an error and suggested to restart PC or reinstall product. The program automatically closed itself.
    I'm not able to write the exact sentence of the alert, because now PE7 does not start at all. Not even the alert with the error message.
    I always used this product in this 3 years (from this PC), without problems.
    PE7 was preinstalled and pre-registered by the constructor of PC (Sony-Vaio). So, now i have not even the registration key to reinstall PE7.
    Furthermore, I tried to open Adobe Premiere Elements 7 (also, preinstalled and pre-registered, but never used), and after splash screen the program automatically close itself.
    What can I do??!?
    Thanks you all.

    No result by disconnecting from the network. Even if I restart PC.
    But.... I SOLVED the problem!!!!!
    The problem was "FLEXnet Licensing Service"
    Thanks to last tip, that leads to another failure... I remembered that 2 days ago I tried to optimize my PC by stopping some service with MSConfig. One of the disabled services was "FLEXnet Licensing Service".
    Searching in google, now i know that "Flexnet Licensing service is used by most Adobe products to prevent piracy".
    So, some Adobe products do not start, if Flexnet Licensing service is not running.
    Thank you very much for tips, and help in general... very helpful (to investigate the nature of the problem).

But it knows .doc is MS Word and opens it automatically (this is the behavior I would like with .docx docs.)

    Hi ,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you could not edit documents with Office client application in SharePoint 2010.
    Let’s do a troubleshooting about this issue:
    1. Make sure that you have installed Office application on your machine.
    2. Which explorer did you use for your SharePoint. Please test it with IE 10 32-bit, compare the result.
    3. Please try to reset IE, compare the result.
    4. Add your SharePoint site into Trusted site on your IE options.
    5. Make sure all add-ons related to SharePoint are enable, special for SharePoint OpenDocument Class and SharePointOpenXMLDocuments.
    6. Since you used OWA for your SharePoint site, please try to disable OWA, then open documents with client application, compare the result.
    I hope this helps.
