not sure if you bought another dongle I bought one these to work with an old laptop and linuxmint had no problems using it: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07V1SZCY6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 my experience has been there is a lot of old/dodgy bluetooth stuff that 'sort of...

hello!

I wish I had happy news, but this thread about your dongle makes me sad

Hello. if you can get it to boot with linuxmint LiveCD you should be able to use 'Disks' app Menu>All>Disks. If it is UEFI, there will be a small (100-500 meg) FAT32 partition at front of drive. Not sure what you meant by 'see each other'. I had an old thinkpad with Windows 7 with a flaky 'version 1...

Hi MiZoG Thanks for replying. Tried Timeshift many years ago - I will give it another shot. The Ubuntu page you linked to lists these exclusions to the tar backup: --exclude=/proc --exclude=/tmp --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/dev --exclude=/sys --exclude=/run --exclude=/media --exclude=/var/log --exclude...

[SOLVED] :D now superhappy! TL;DR - restoring tar backup to old partition does not remove the 'bad' files that were preventing proper boot. You should delete old files before restoring. you might also need to re-create some directories, then chroot and run grub-pc, update-mkinitramfs -u , update-gru...

Thanks vimes666! You are correct! had nothing to do with zfs, but behavior of chown -R command sudo chown -R dixon2:dixon2 amcstuff changed ownership of amcstuff subdirectory, but also removed 'execute' permission of new owner dixon2. restoring it with sudo chmod -R 774 amstuff allowed "ls"...

However, in order to move on to the Super Grand Prize Round, use must also answer the ZFS question!!

you should try the program efibootmgr in the Software Manager.

you can use it to alter the boot configuration of efi operating systems. instruction are pretty straightforward on its man page.

you might also need to go into BIOS and set first boot device as ReFind

Hello: I have most of my data on 2 really slow WD 4TB harddrives mounted as ZFS mirrored pool. I went to change a subdirectory permissions to my username:group with: sudo chown -R dixon2:dixon2 /zfspool/docs/amcstuff The subdirectory has about 10,000 jpg files in it and if run ls -lah output: d?????...

I tried running a script with sudo in startup applications and it would not run until I edited sudoers file with visudo.

I had to add new line
at the bottom of file

in linux dot slash (./) is an abbreviation for current working directory.

In this case, it is a subdirectory in your home directory. the full path is so the command would be:


Good Luck!

About every 5th reboot, my ZFS drives fails to start and the only thing I can find in /var/log/boot.log is above line about cache failing. I am running Mint 19.3 mate desktop. Mint19.3 OS is on a 480GB ssd. ZFS pools are on 2 4TB WD EZRZ harddrives in I think its called 'mirror mode' when it does fa...

enp3s0 is your wired ethernet adapter. I am guessing wlp2s0 is your wireless adapter

if the command has to be run as root, then you will have to make a visudo rule for it. Search google for "ubuntu visudo" for details The start menu has an option PReferances> "Startup applications" where you can put custom commands that will start on boot. This is the easiest app...

3 suggestions: First: 1. reboot. at grub menu choose "advance options" then choose first one on list called "(recovery mode)" 2. this should eventually get you to a menu select check file systems- after this finishes select resume Second: There should be an option in menu for &qu...

have you looked at rodsbooks.com and the program REfind ? I tried to install an early version of ubuntu 17.10 on my lenovo i7 which had the BIOS that corrupts with 17.10, leaving unfixable firmware damage. Thank goodness I had previously installed REfind boot manager, or would have permanently brick...

you could install GT 1030 then monitor GPU temperature during different loads. I installed package mate-sensors-applet-nvidia then followed this guide https://askubuntu.com/questions/34449/how-to-see-the-video-card-temperature-nvidia-ati-intel finally I installed a panel applet MATE Sensors Applet a...
