Ubuntu and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)
Hi all.
The tripartite dialogue is reportedly going in haste. A final document is expected in the next few weeks, in time for approval still during the Spanish presidency. In all likelihood this...
In the end it was about simplifying, as TheFu suggested, solution is in the log below. Before that, just to answer MAFoElffen, by default volumes mounted to /media/user are accessible to users. Mount...
A new attempt, now with the output from lsblk.
$ udisksctl unlock -b /dev/sdd1
Passphrase:
Unlocked /dev/sdd1 as /dev/dm-2.

Hi TheFu, thank you for the reply. Below is the log of a new attempt using cryptsetup, the result is essentially the same. Could there be something missing?

Mount an ecrypted volume in read-write mode
I have an external volume encrypted with ext4. I would like to mount it from the command line, but it results in a read-only mount. I am using usidksctl for the purpose:

22.04: decrypt user home encrypted with 20.04
The computer has a single volume with two partitions, one with the system (/) and another with the /home folder. The user folder in /home was encrypted with Ubuntu 20.04 (i.e. ecryptfs).

Linking to stub-resolv.conf does not solve it either:
$ sudo rm -f /etc/resolv.conf
$ sudo ln -s /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf
$ nslookup ubuntu.com...
Over WiFi I am always connected directly.
An update to this thread. At this moment, the behaviour I initially reported is now happening in all of the following circumstances:
- the system boots
- the system returns from sleep mode

Hello again. This issue remains unresolved. Even running "sudo systemctl restart systemd-resolved" or rebooting the system as SeijiSensei indicated does not repair name resolution.
As soon as the...
Not yet, lets see if that settles it. Thanks for reminding.
Thank you for the reply SeijiSensei. I modified /etc/systemd/resolved.conf to look like this:
[Resolve]

FallbackDNS=185.228.168.9 8.8.8.8

On a laptop with Ubuntu 20.04 I am dealing with an elusive networking issue. Every time the system boots or connects to a different WiFi network programmes are unable to access the internet. Turns...
Is there any text-based database administration tool?
Hi all,
recently I have been searching for a text-based database administration tool but could not find anything. I usually work with command line clients (like `psql` or `sqlite`) but sometimes...
Thank you all for the replies. Eventually I managed to upgrade the system to 20.04. In this particular case the most efficient strategy was to remove snap programmes. Each programme released hundreds...
Looking for creative ways to reduce disk space occupied by system folders
Hi all. I am in the process of upgrading all my systems to 20.04. Some days ago I noticed that in one system the 22 GB allocated to / where nearly full. I then performed the usual tasks:

Dear all,
In recent weeks I have tried to revive an old project coded in C#, way back in the day I still used Winblows at work. I use Eclipse, so I went out first for some C# plug-in; while at...

However, there is no Configuration button in the Rhythmbox version shipped with Ubuntu 16.04:

That is an elegant way of avoiding the subject. Cheers.
Thank you all for the many replies, very interesting information gathered here.
So far the only arguments provided to justify the adherence to defective software is that it is either impractical...
In Software Engineering, requirements and functionality are not a matter of taste.
I am pretty happy with Unity, I do not wish to change to a different DE. I am just interested in understanding...
Why is Ubuntu 16.04 including a featureless Totem release?
Hi everyone,
I understand these questions may not be entirely comfortable to everyone. But I do not wish to condemn or judge the decisions that led to this situation, I would just like to know the...
A live Ubuntu 16.04 USB also failed to boot, but with a different error. For now only the 14.04 USB is able to boot.
Trying different things, I experimented booting from other kernels installed....
Before going down that route I would like to understand what kind of "trouble" is this.
Thank you.
Dear all,
A few days ago I upgraded my laptop from 14.04 to 16.04. This morning it started booting into emergency mode claiming low memory corruption. This particular laptop is 7 years old,...
