Using wireless connection, dns not resolved

I just installed a Yeacomm wireless router/modem. For some reason a wireless connection to it isn't satifying dns requests. The /etc/resolv is: nameserver 127.0.0.53 options edns0 trust-ad search lan tail1b079.ts.net I think it is related to the options field but commenting it out didn't help. If i ...

Re: Photofilmstrip does not work anymore...

I have installed virt-manager and then booted a kvm guest running Ubuntu 20.04. I installed PhotoFilmStrip on the guest and it all works again. A bit of a kludge, but I can still generate videos. I also used the info at https://www.debugpoint.com/share-folder-virt-manager/ to share files from the ho...

I have a python script that is being run via a systemd service. It is running as a normal user and aplay seems to run OK but no sound comes out of the speakers. If I run the script from the command line as the same user as indicated in the service file, I get output from the speakers. This is the re...

Re: Phpmyadmin is just printing code

I discovered that the index.php that is being executed is located at /usr/share/phpmyadmin/index.php. I added the tag

Code: Select all

?>
to the end of that file and it's running. Php 8.1 was installed. I'm guessing the newer php requires a closing tag.

Re: Mint Mate 20 slow boot

It's funny that it will boot Mint 18 in about 35 seconds however. Unless this kernel doesn't like my disk, I can't think that it's related to a slow disk.

Re: NFS Mount not working: mount.nfs: Operation not permitted

Yes, nfs-common is installed. Sorry the server is running Mint 18, not 17. A typo. I just tried it from Mint to Mint and it works. What fails is the Ubuntu 16.04 client. Which makes no sense.

Re: Upgrade to linux-image-3.13.0-32-generic failing to boot

did you add grub settings to boot on the previous kernel? and did you use other drivers for your nvidia card then the default nouveau? No, I had not modified the grub settings until after it failed to boot. Then I set the default to the .24 kernel. No, it's a pretty generic install. I never got aro...

Upgrade to linux-image-3.13.0-32-generic failing to boot

I recently did an apt-get dist-upgrade and it installed the aforementioned kernel. Booting from that kernel leaves me at a very low resolution login prompt and no keyboard or mouse support. It's like it doesn't know anything about my display card (Nvidia) nor the keyboard and mouse (USB). I had to b...
