Re: Video card for dell optiflex 390
Hi, Out of the box, the kernel supports most NVidia cards (except the old timers). I have always had good luck with Asus and, usually, Gigabyte manufacturers. I use the GIGABYTE GeForce GT 1030 GV-N1030D5-2GL Low Profile 2G Computer Graphics Card on many machines in conjunction with VBox. The card h...

Re: Backup & Restore - Again
Consider rsync for a comprehensive system backup (to a partition on the new drive). You will have to install a bootloader as well.

Re: Question about preferred remote access tool
Hi, I tunnel port 5900 over ssh. On the remote computers I use x11vnc to create the VPN and firewall incomming connections on 5900. Finally, I connect with Remmina at localhost:5900. The connection: ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 xyz@memoteIP Starting the vnc on the remote machine (from the ssh remote t...

Re: So, "Microsoft" called me ...
I told the guy I used Linux and OMG the guy went off and started screaming to take my Linux computer and shove it up my @$$ over and over. I had a female "technical service" call me about "my Windows computer." When I started to snicker she followed with a lengthy cluster-f##k. ...

Re: So, "Microsoft" called me ...
Hi,
Here in my neck of the woods the mad dialers can masquerade as a local number. The local number that appears on the caller ID sometimes is a hyjacked number owned by a hapless resident. Once my number showed up on another fella's caller ID and he promptly called me back and told me off.

Re: Building a new tower, hardware recommendations.
Bleading-edge hardware from Asus works out of the box for me every time. (and... I don't work for them.) I have had very good luck (over 50 builds) using Asus ROG boards. I have had no problem with Ryzen processors. My home desktop is a Crosshair board but the less expensive Strix boards work well. ...

Re: file system cannot locate USB drive?
Humm... All seems well. When you open your file manager, does it show on the left? If so, clan you click it from there and mount it? If not, let's make sure it's not corrupted somehow. First make sure it's recognized again by lsblk as sdb1. If so, run: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt Then run: ls -la /mnt...

Re: file system cannot locate USB drive?
Without the usb plugged in, run: lsusb then plug it in and run: lsusb Comparing the two, does plugging in the usb change the output? If not, then it's hardware troubles. If it does, then the device was recognized, so, next run: (With and without the drive plugged in) sudo lsblk If the usb is recogni...

Hi
Give Open Media Vault a look. I use it in a few different locations.

FreeNAS is a good choice too, but I prefer to use it only on commercial LANs
