Re: Unable to create socket: Too many open files
Well... went the whole weekend without streaming and - even though I rebooted a couple of times (for the sake of investigation) the message comes back. It does however not seem to have any negative effect on my system as a whole and the size of the syslog seems to keep itself at a reasonable size, s...

Re: Unable to create socket: Too many open files
Were you by any chance doing a lot of capturing of streaming videos at all? I haven't used svtplay-dl for some time actually, but you might have pointed me in the right direction anyway... I've spent the last couple of days following Al Jazeera's coverage of the US Election... could that qualify as...

Unable to create socket: Too many open files
Hi all, Yesterday I found myself with a syslog that had grown so big (23GB) that available space in my root partition had shrunk to only 150-something MB. I googled my way to a solution to that problem and managed to get that part of my computer back to normal again. This did however open up a new w...

Install & setup to VDI, transfer to physical computer?
Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the place for my question, and maybe it's all been asked before, so please accept my apologies if I should have posted it elsewhere... (Neither do I know much about terminology, so maybe the info is already here somewhere) A couple of years ago I set up my netbook to ...

Re: Failure to boot "live-usb". Freezes after "stopping samb
Here is an interesting update...
Just on a hunch I decided to try the XFCE version of the iso instead.
- That one boots!
It doesn't solve my problem though, as I really prefer to install Cinnamon version...
Any ideas?
(Edit - couldn't find the question mark on the live cd)

Failure to boot "live-usb". Freezes after "stopping samba.."
Hi all, Did a search, but from what I found most similar errors come on already installed systems which is not my case... I sat down to try to reinstall Linux Mint this morning - I went for Cinnamon x64 version of 17.2 - and ended up not getting past the mint boot splash-thing... I reset the compute...

Re: Samba share - getting past the password screen...
I finally got it (and my memory back): If I choose to add the server by adding it address instead of scanning for it and try to open it I get the option to enter with credentials. - But this only works if I do [2] It's a pity that it isn't as easy as just right-clicking on the folder/drive and choos...

Re: Samba share - getting past the password screen...
Hmm... I think I'll look at that option first. Another option that I'm thinking about it to go back to Maya and see if that works the way I remember it. That way I covered until 2017 when it comes to support and since the main task of this netbook will be sharing videos and music It doesn't really m...

Re: Samba share - getting past the password screen...
Hi Altair, thanks for taking the time to reply. I started with option two and it worked right away. Is this a new requirement or did I just forget about it from the last time I set it up? Another question - how do I go about giving my android phones acces to these drives? That error is still there (...

Hi all, Silly question that I can't seem to figure out the answer to: Have two computers running Petra Cinnamon. One of them - a netbook - have a couple of usb disks connected to them. My idea is to have the netbook run as a poor man's file server, so I want to share those connected disks with the r...

Re: Any overclockers in here? Segmentation fault in Handbrak
First of all - thanks for taking the time to reply, My testing goes on and it seems like it's pointing more and more towards memory. Haven't done any real testing of the RAM yet, but I decided to change my strategy a bit with Handbrake and went for one of the standard presets that came along when I ...

Yeah, saving the session works for me. Been rebooting, shutting down/turning on, logging in/out several times since yesterday without problems.
