  1. All USB Disks No Longer Auto Mount for one user account

    Typically when inserting a USB Disk (thumb drive) into my Ubuntu 20.04 PC, it auto mounts and the window of that drive appears. I have one PC where that action suddenly stopped for one of the users....
  2. Re: Not receiving e-mail notifications

    I did receive an e-mail of my last two notifications. Hopefully the issue is resolved.
  3. [ubuntu_mate] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 Archive Manager / File Roller can not open APK files

    Thank you. That is exactly what I was looking for. I still do not understand why that capability was removed from the Ubuntu default archive applications.
  4. Not receiving e-mail notifications

    I am not receiving email notifications from this forum. Is e-mail being sent to me? I subscribed to this post as well.
  5. [ubuntu_mate] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 Archive Manager / File Roller can not open APK files

    @ajgreeny Thanks. Yeah, renaming the file to a zip file works as a work around and in some situations more convenient than booting to Ubuntu 16.04. I still do not understand the reasoning for...
  6. [ubuntu_mate] Ubuntu 18.04 Archive Manager / File Roller can not open APK files

    Under Ubuntu 16.04 there was no issue opening an APK file. I believe Archive Manager / File Roller was used to open these files. Under 18.04, I have not found any archive applications that can open...
  7. How would you downgrade the sane backend from 1.0.27 to version 1.0.25 in Ubuntu 18.0

    I have a Cannon flat bed scanner LIDE 100. It still works perfectly under 16.0-4LTS. I recently switched over to 18.04LTS and my scans now have a black vertical line. Googling the issue it seems...

    Re: Removing Seahorse

    I will take a look at the links. But I have tried deleting the offending web site and VPN password entries. They simply get re-populated when I use them again. Thanks for the extra research.

    Thanks!
  11. Swap File Recommendation for 18.04

    I recently upgraded from 16.04 to 18.04 with a fresh install. My system has 16GB RAM. Under 16.04 I had a swap partition of 8GB on the same disk as root that was used. With the 18.04 installation,...

    Re: Removing Seahorse

    Thanks for the reply and providing good reasons not to remove Seahorse. But I do not need Sehorse saving my Firefox passwords or VPN passwords. I do not see any configuration to prevent this...

    Removing Seahorse

    I do not fully understand the benefit of Seahorse. I see it saves most my web passwords, but Firefox can do that to. I also see it saves my VPN passwords, but I thought OpenVPN could do that for me...

    [ubuntu] Re: resolv.conf gets overwritten

    I saw on another forum to comment out the "dns=dnsmasq" in the /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf to stop DNS leaks. This works for me with all OpenVPN connections so far.

    Re: USAA Deposit@Home on Linux

    Alright, I think I got it, USAA rejects Linux. I confirmed today that they no longer use Java. I did not get a good answer why they still check for Java, but they promised an answer. I installed a...

    Re: USAA Deposit@Home on Linux

    I could update to one or the other to confirm. It makes sense this could be the issue. I am thinking v8 is more mainstream, should I be patient for 152 (which was released mid October) or find a...

    Re: USAA Deposit@Home on Linux

    So no Java in Windows version of FireFox either?

    Re: USAA Deposit@Home on Linux

    Oracle Java was installed via the WEBUPD8TEAM PPA back when I first installed 16.04LTS. See below why I think something is wrong with the Oracle install.

    I know this has been a challenge before which we all worked through. But it keeps getting tougher. With the recent upgrades I am locked out once again. It seems I can’t even get Oracle Java...

    OPENVPN Update

    My current OPENVPN version installed on 16.04LTS is 2.3.10. This is the same version listed in the Ubuntu Software Center. I see OPENVPN has been updated to 2.4.2. Is it recommended to update my...
  22. Re: "Configure VPN" in Network Manager is grayed out, what can I do?

    Looking through my VPN settings, I don't see L2TP.. So Googling shows me it is not a common configuration for Ubuntu 16. But there were a few guides I saw.

  23. Re: "Configure VPN" in Network Manager is grayed out, what can I do?

    That sounds like the problem I was experiencing before the recent update. My work around was deleting the etc/resolv.conf symbolic link and creating a resolv.conf file with DNS servers of my...
  24. Re: "Configure VPN" in Network Manager is grayed out, what can I do?

    I am trying to understand why this thread was moved to "Server Platforms". Isn't this a network issue? It seemed to came about with network changes.
  25. Re: "Configure VPN" in Network Manager is grayed out, what can I do?

    That is my understanding. And based on the lack of discussion/complaints, I assume there is no priority to fix it.

    I assume you know you still can configure VPN under Network/Edit Connections.
