Re: What does this inix -G statements mean?

As a last resort, you could download the standalone installer from NVidia here: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverR ... 6629/en-us

It's not the latest release but it is supported/recommended by Nvidia based on identifying that you have a GTX 1650 series notebook GPU.

Re: What does this inix -G statements mean?

The journalctl command should only show the last 50 lines of the log. I should have done the same with the dmesg command (sorry about that).

Code: Select all

dmesg | tail -n 50
If 50 seems like too much, then you can change the number as you like to reduce the lines shown.

Re: What does this inix -G statements mean?

You could do a shutdown and the power on manually. If that also doesn't cooperate, let's check a couple of logs to see if anything squirrelly is happening.

Code: Select all

dmesg
journalctl -n 50

Re: Mirrored Mint 19.3 install to new PC. Network interface won't startup until after login.

It is interesting that in the dmesg output you posted the NIC is recognized early but the link is not initialized until 233 seconds after booting (almost 4 minutes). I'm betting you are getting to the desktop login well before that time mark. And the dmesg info about the NIC coming up is probably fr...

Ok, this confirms one of my thoughts. You may be experiencing a similar issue to this thread. https://askubuntu.com/a/1251669 However you are running an ASUS board so you may need to download an update for the Intel I225-V network card (based on available Windows drivers on the ASUS site for your bo...

Hmm...interesting. Let's try some additional info gathering commands please. I apologize if it seems redundant.

Hi FST, Yes, this command is identifying the graphics devices detected in the system, the driver loaded for each device, the display server that is underlying the entire graphics display, and what is being used for graphics acceleration (OpenGL renderer). You are correct. Currently, the system is us...

Re: Mirrored Mint 19.3 install to new PC. Network interface won't startup until after login.

Hi Hauser, It's a bit odd that your first inxi output doesn't list the hardware for the network devices. This probably means the driver is not getting loaded at boot time. Can you post the inxi network output after you disable and enable the network to see what the hardware is identified as? Also, n...

Re: Login Screen doesn't Accept Fingerprints

It seems that fprintd logs to /etc/sysconfig/authconfig by default. I'd start there if you're not seeing anything in /var/log/messages.

You might be experiencing an issue similar to this one. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=262476

Re: M.2 SSD Drive Do I need to treat it differently than a hard drive?

You really don't have to make any changes to treat it differently on a day to day basis. However, if you're just itching to tweak it, here's an article I ran across. Note I have not applied these settings personally and have no issues. I'm less concerned with lifespan of the drive itself where I use...

This may not be quite what you are looking for (disable bluetooth entirely at startup). Then again, maybe so. :)

Re: Partitioning a 4TB Drive

Yes, you can do that. Technically, the functional limits of EXT4 are a single volume of 1EiB (exbibyte) and a single file can be up to 16TiB (tebibyte). But most of the time if you are approaching large size filesystem needs, there are other, more suited filesystem choices (XFS, BTRFS, etc). For a 3...

Re: Permissions issue when accessing drives/partitions

Maybe you could add the qemu_vga user as a member of the disk group so that it is a secondary group for that user?

Code: Select all

sudo usermod -aG disk qemu_vga
This should allow the user to take advantage of the permissions available to the disk group where assigned.

Re: malfunction with VPN client, default gateway hosed

Hi petrasr, The 159.254.0.0 line is simply identifying a second local network attached to your network interface. Your default gateway appears to be intact as 192.168.1.254. You can tell it is the default gateway since the Flags section has a G assigned to that line. Also, general routing rules foll...

All that GUFW is implying by that warning is that it may be a less than great idea to have SSH open to the entire Internet (allow from anywhere).

Are you getting any error messages when trying to send? Also note that receiving is only handled by the POP3 settings. Sending is only handled by the SMTP settings. They don't overlap in functionality.

Re: When I hook up to wifi, my computer's name is visible to the network admin. Is there any way to hide it?

Hi James, Wifi network connectivity behaves the same as wired connectivity in most respects. So your computer typically must request an IP address from the network when it initially makes the connection. This request is answered by a DHCP server where your IP allocation is reserved using your networ...
