I looked, but there does not seem to be such an option in the XPS 9570 BIOS.
I managed to install ubuntu 18.04.1 on an XPS-15 9570. as far as I can tell, it runs solid and everything is working. (I do not have or use a fingerprint reader.) this is due to the great work by...
thank you, but it is not exactly what I am wondering about. (after the 50*conf surgery, the /var/log/cron.log has the same nice output as the journalctl.)
1. I have two /etc/*crontab, one...
I am trying to figure out how cron works on ubuntu 17.10, and where program output goes. I uncommented the relevant line in /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf, and saw /var/log/cron* appear. all good....
plain vanilla ubuntu 17.10: I am trying to find out whether there are any programs that allow me to see from a remote location what is on the display head of my ubuntu desktop. (I do not want to...
I have a 128GB SDD and a 5TB HDD. I can use 64GB as my boot and root partitions, but 64GB is too small for all my user files. (same for 1TB.) alas, it would seem to me that this would be ideal for...
strangely, after I installed the intel wifi modem, it has begun to work. so, neither the broadcom nor the edimax usb wifi worked, and both had the same weird symptoms of losing DNS ("refused") after...
first, let me express my appreciation for spending the time with me on tracking this down. my network is
root 689 0.1 0.2 629628 18736 ? Ssl 16:39 0:01...
yes, I did, but it is still no cigar. that is,
as well as a
I have been reading up on the many wifi issues on the xps13, 2015 model. a 2015 xps13 is not the latest hardware, so the drivers should work. alas, no. I thought given Dell's generic linux...
thanks, MAFOElffen (spell right? ;-) ). there are is a lot of novice-confusing lxc/lxd there. I understand that lxd is newer and simplified and better, but I never knew the old lxc, so I am...
I am not really sure what I am doing, which is part of the problem here. essentially, I want to run a few webservers (funnydomain1.info, odddomain2.info, ...) on ipv4 for the internet, each in its...
dear experts:
I have used two virtual instances of vmware player, all on 14.04 (host + 2 guests), because it made it easy to move virtual machines to different hardware and because it gives some...
I now suspect this is a GPT (either EFI or BIOS) problem with qemu. I get the same error in an arch install.
my host is a standard ubuntu 14.10 .
I have an arch vmware guest installation that boots from EFI (GPT) in the VMware vmplayer . It runs fine, but I would rather run an open vm emulator. I...
good. so, am I guessing right that grub then sets an environment variable that induces the loader to invoke systemd instead of /sbin/init (which presumably is upstart)? and, once running, the...
I looked at the alpha 2 weeks ago, and it did not have systemd as its default boot system. is there a plan to switch to systemd by default in 15.04?
my other systems are arch, and it would be...
are there any vendors that are selling repurposed chromebox'es or equivalent boxes that boot into ubuntu instead of into chrome by default? would be nice to buy one and run 2-3 virtual machines on...
I wasn't complaining. I was asking... deja-dup. great. thanks. time to go read the manuals.
my perl backup script ran into all sorts of trouble (setuid-related), so I decided to switch to a "standard" solution, presumably the ubuntu backup that is built into ubuntu preferences. I turned it...
thank you. you are correct. rc.local is indeed executed. it was the logging behavior that was changed. the output used to go to boot.log . (I looked at it on a 14.04 system.) it no longer does....
I just stuck an
into /etc/rc.local , and made sure that it was executable. rc.local is properly linked in
but it never executes. the boot process does not create a /var/log/boot.log...
definitely a broken updater. I have a long update log, but it omitted updating 736 out of 2115 files.
so update-manager -d on gnome-ubuntu is flawed.
fresh install needed.
