[Solved]can't disable auto login after upgrade to gnome 2.28

Prior to upgrading gnome to the latest version I had set gdm up to auto log me in. Since the upgrade I can't figure out how to disable auto login. I would like to be able to disable auto login, can anyone on here please help me out here? Thanks for any help provided.

Ah, thanks a bunch. This had been bothering me for awhile now, just finely got around to trying to fix it. Thanks again.

You can't. Using the advanced AI now in 2.28, GNOME has decided you are too stupid to log in yourself, and is now in User Protection Mode(TM).

Sorry, I have no constructive advice. Just poking fun.
No problem, you actually made me laugh out loud, so thanks for that.

[SOLVED] Can't find root partition after upgrade

After upgrading to Linux 3.6.6, the boot fails with something like "can't find root, UUID=..." and I get a root shell. Choosing to recovery mode in GRUB doesn't make a difference.
I don't have any sda devices in /dev.
/proc/partitions is empty.
I have Macbook Pro 7,1.
Ubuntu on other partition works.
Any idea how to fix this?

I don't use these either ... but this does sound like a very plausible cause of this error. Are you sure you aren't using either?
In any case, it's easy enough to add them back and see if that solves this. Boot into live media, chroot, add back the modules to mkinitcpio.conf and rebuild the initramfs. If nothing else this would verify that these are not the problem.

[SOLVED] USB 3G no longer works after upgrade to GNOME 3.8

I did the 'big' update today, including upgrading to GNOME 3.8. Unfortunately, NetworkManager no longer picks up my 3G USB modem (which used to work fine before the update). Any pointers as to how I could debug this would be greatly appreciated.
wvdial has never really worked for me, but gnome networkmanager used to pick up my device and the connection, and now simply acts as if it's no longer present. Attempting to follow the instructions on the wiki to re-setup my USB stick (the instructions I followed in the first place) no longer works. Did today's update cause the same problem for anybody else?
**Update: After updating today to modemmanager 0.7.990-4 and running
sudo systemctl enable ModemManager
sudo systemctl start ModemManager
I have full connectivity again with the built-in DW5550 mobile broadband card in my Dell Precision M6600 (including showing signal strength in the GNOME 3.8 top bar, etc). Thanks all for the help, and (most importantly) to whoever fixed up modemmanager!

wvdial might also be a workaround, if one does not like to downgrade. In my case, I had to unset my PIN on the SIM card first. One can do that using a mobile phone, for example.
Then
# pacman -S wvdial
in /etc/wvdial.conf, I put
[Dialer Defaults]
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
ISDN = 0
Stupid Mode = 1
Dial Attempts = 3
Init1 = ATZ
[Dialer huawei]
Modem = /dev/serial/by-id/usb-ZTE_Incorporated_1_1_Surf-stick_MF19001MOD010000-if02-port0
Baud = 115200
[Dialer voda]
Init3 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","web.vodafone.de"
[Dialer dial]
Phone=*99**1#
Username = umts
Password = umts
You can find out your modem name by looking it up with
ls /dev/serial/by-id/
In my case there were names containing the strings if00, if01 and if02, and if02 turned out to be the correct one. This depends on hardware.
Also, in the "Init 3" line, you may have to replace "web.vodafone.de" according to your provider. The section "dial" seems to be quite universal from what I read on the web, so you may not have to change that.
then
# wvdial huawei voda dial
and hope for the best.
Disclaimer: I do not have a comprehensive understanding of what I did here, but it worked in my case and it might work for you, too.
I noticed that the Defaults section makes a difference, because the one I just edited in above avoids some delay in dialing.

[SOLVED] Can't connect to network after upgrade to systemd

Hello:
I recently performed a full system upgrade and migrated to systemd successfully per these articles:
https://www.archlinux.org/news/end-of-i … s-support/
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … stallation
I am able to boot the system using systemd, however I no longer have network access.
I removed the daemons from rc.conf that I was using previously and added them using systemctl, but I can't seem to add the networkmanager daemon as it is not installed.
I have not removed initscripts - as far as I know, it still parses rc.conf - I left a couple of 'legacy' daemons in there such as open-vm-tools (this is running on ESXI) and the network daemon - however since upgrading it seems the network daemon is either not installed or is not loading. I know the guide says to remove initscripts, but it also says it can be left if you need legacy daemons - I would like to move away from the old network system however open-vm-tools is still not compatible with systemd afaik.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you.
EDIT: Here is the output of dmesg | grep vmxnet
[ 3.766182] WMware vmxnet virtual NIC driver
[ 3.771287] Found vmxnet/PCI at 0x2024, irq18
EDIT 2: It seems open-vm-tools is no longer loading either - it did get upgraded during pacman -Syu (I saw it in the list) - so maybe initscripts is not functioning / loading rc.conf after all? Can someone please assist me with enabling initscripts to run alongside systemd?

Thanks! I can see that ip link was the obvious thing I was missing here.
I have a new interface 'enp2s0' showing as DOWN. I guess now I know what happened to eth0
UPDATE: I found out that vm tools has been upgraded as well, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … systemd%29
Thanks a lot for your help, I will definitely do some more digging in the Arch Wiki and forums next time!

What can I do about this: After upgrading to firefox 6, I get this error. TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined???

What can I do about this:
After upgrading to firefox 6, I get this error.
When I click to open Firefox, A box open with the following error:
JAVASCRIPT Application
TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined?
After I click close on the box, then Firefox will start. I really just want to get the error fixed so that when I want firefox open, I don't have to see this box anymore.

You need to figure out which add-on is causing that error and disable it until the developer of that add-on fixes it. There may be an error message about that in the Error Console, accessed through the Web Developer menu item or through {Ctrl + Shft + J}.

Can I disable auto-sync on Shuffel iTunes 7.3 Vista OS

It seems odd that everytime I make a change to a single song on my iPod, iTunes performs a sync.
For example, I want to uncheck several songs loaded on my shuffel, but iTunes performs a sync after each time I de-select a check-box.
Can I disable automatic syncing after each change to a song or podcast on my shuffel?
Thanks

As long as your shuffle is connected and showing up in iTunes, that's the way it works...

Disabling Auto-Login Option

How do we disable Auto-Login option in OBPM 10GR3 because I get the following error:-
You have the autologin option enabled and the session for this execution has expired .

So nobody else has been bitten by this stupid bug?
Anyway, it happens on a pure VGA console too, so it has nothing to do with the video driver. And I take back the “more of an inconvenience” part – it is freaking annoying that one can not just properly change the runlevel. Oh well…

Contacts. Can't add new contacts after upgrading to Mtn Lion from Snow Leopard.

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
find . $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl $ 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Press return. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "35." Please post it in a reply.

I can't update my apps after upgrade to iOS 6...?

I can't update my apps after upgrade to iOS 6

Are you sure you have a proper Internet connection? Make sure your iPod is connected to your computer, and you have an Internet connection.
Don't even get me started on the iPod Touch 5G, I actually own an iPod Touch 4G, and I've considered a lot about if I should get the new one. At first look, you might be sold by the features Apple has on their iPod Touch page. It has a taller screen that's a 4-inch Retina Display, has a much better camera with a flash, and comes with iOS 6 preinstalled with Siri. But the real breakthrough comes with the new connector. It's called Lighting, and it's much smaller. But if you have a dock connector that comes with some cars, and maybe a set of speakers or docking stations as alarm clocks, I encourage you not to get the new one. The usage of your old connectors requires a $30 adapter, which is a ridiculous price. And who knows how secure the adapters will be with your docking stations? I personally think Apple has crossed the line. If they are to put a new connector with their new products, they should ship with an adapter in the box, at least at first. This is why I strongly encourage you NOT to get the new 5th generation iPod Touch.
Sorry if I went a little off-topic there, but I wanted to get my point across. For your updating to iOS 6, I reccommend you check out other discussions in the support comunity, and see what other contributors have to say. Or go on Google and search your error messages, possibly someone might've already went through the same problem as you did. I really hope this helped!

Can't disable automatic login (wifi) in Mt. Lion 10.8.4

Dear all, why i can't disable automatic login in Mt. Lion 10.8.4??
i'm using a MBP 2.4Ghz/Intel core i5 / late 2011 model, running 10.8.4
each time i turn the wifi on and select the name of network, it will automatically login without asking my password, (I just want it ask me for password every time coz i don't want the password stay on the computer!)
and i had did the following already but the nightmare still go on, please kindly let me know if the issue can be fix? thanks a lot!!!
1. network panel : click advance and remove all network names in the window, and unchecked the box "Remember networks this computer has joined".
2. Security Panel : selected "Disable automatic login"
3. Users & Groups panel : Automatic login : selected "off"
4.inside the Library / Preferences folder : "com.apple.loginwindow.plist", "com.apple.airport.preferences.plist" & " NetworkInterfaces.plist" all are deleted
thanks again!!!

Open Keychain Access and locate the entry for the network logon, select the entry and press the Delete key. That will remove the password from your Keychain and the system will have to request your password to log onto the network. Note: keychain entries are securely encrypted so even if someone has access to your computer, it would be highly unlikely they would be able to retrieve the network password.
