  1. [ubuntu] Re: Unable to install DEBs since installing 23.10

    This has been lamented by others, see OMGUbuntu's article.

    Basically you have to install Gdebi from the App Center or the command line to be able to install .deb files.

    Cheers!
  2. Re: Why does this partition and only this one show up in thunar

    I don't have Thunar installed so can't test this, but have you thought of simply mounting your Scratch disk directly as your Desktop directory without using a bind mount?

    [SOLVED] Re: btrbk no pruning snapshots

    Turns out it needed to explicitly state:

    snapshot_preserve_min latest
    in the config. If not specified, the value defaults to "all" meaning that all snapshots are kept and preservation...

    [SOLVED] btrbk no pruning snapshots

    Hi everyone,

    I've been using btrbk for a while to create btrfs snapshots and back them up to external drives. Creation and transfer work fine by executing btrbk run as a cron job. However, no...

    Re: Thunar custom action

    You need to specify the target zip file.
    I would suggest the following syntax:

    zip -u %n.zip %F
    This will zip all selected files and create a zipfile using the name of the first file, with .zip...
  7. [lubuntu] Re: Can't automount XFS partition - please help?

    To automount a partition at boot time, the easiest way is to add an entry in your /etc/fstab file and have an empty directory ready for mounting it

    Hi there,

    I can replicate this behavior, which is a strange one.

    From the target path you specified, it seems you are copying to your NAS via SMB (Windows share). Most SMB servers wont support copying Linux properties like owner, group, permissions and...

    [ubuntu] Re: How to force autofs nfs ver3

    Use the parameter -vers=3 in your config file.
    For example, I have /etc/auto.nfs containing

    directory -vers=3,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,intr server:/share

    [SOLVED] Re: Synapse and NAS mount

    I don't know of any clever way. I think it stems from the fact that we're just not supposed to mount anything in /media from fstab, it's reserved for hot-plugged devices. Although I will agree that...

    [SOLVED] Re: Synapse and NAS mount

    Indexing the filename won't cache the file contents on your hard drive, so it won't make access faster.
    Starting from Ubuntu 12.10, hot-plugged media are mounted in /media/<yourname> instead of just...

    [SOLVED] Re: Synapse and NAS mount

    Hi there,
    Synapse is awesome indeed. It uses the locate command to find files, which in turn depends on updatedb to index and update the database. What you need is to edit /etc/updatedb.conf (as...
  18. [ubuntu] Re: Multiple NASs on a single mounted directory.

    You should try mhddfs (in the repos). It's very simple to use and has few options; most operations are done intelligently. It will merge two mount points into a third.
    It can be run by a user or...

    [SOLVED] Re: NFS share issue

    How is your Charsar_Sys NTFS partition mounted on the server? From /etc/fstab?
    I doubt anything automounted on click would constitute a valid NFS export.

  24. [ubuntu] Re: NFS share not accessible if directory to large

    Good to know it worked!
    The 12.04 server runs both modes simultaneously; v4 handles things quite differently under the hood. Old clients would query servers and connect via NFSv3 unless you...
  25. [ubuntu] Re: NFS share not accessible if directory to large

    If I remember correctly, the 10.04 client defaulted to NFSv3 while 12.04 defaults to v4. It might be a good idea to force your server to use version 3 with the export parameter vers=3. Could be a bug...
