  1. [ubuntu] Re: Power Statistics ( cannot enable timerstats ). Bionic Beaver

    Thanks for this explanation. I noticed this same error in Fedora 28 + MATE when trying to view Processor Wakeups in mate-power-manager. Makes sense since it has to do with the linux kernel.

  2. Re: Self-encrypting drive VS full disk encryption VS volume encryption

    @kevdog Do you mean hardware or software full disk encryption? In any case, it seems FDE isn't even viable for dual boot single disk situations anyways.

    As for the previous link on setting up...
  3. Re: Self-encrypting drive VS full disk encryption VS volume encryption

    I haven't tried any yet. Which worked or didn't work for you?

    Thanks for the links. It looks nicely documented, works with UEFI, and has /boot encrypted too. I might that one first.
  4. Re: Self-encrypting drive VS full disk encryption VS volume encryption

    The more I read, the more I'm surprised at the lack of any simple solution for dual boot encryption on a single disk. It seems it is possible with some lengthy manual process:...
  6. Re: Self-encrypting drive VS full disk encryption VS volume encryption

    That's a good point; securing your data in your own "personal cloud" and accessing remotely from nearly blank devices can be better from a management perspective, but it isn't always an option,...
  7. [ubuntu] Re: Unsupported wireless device RTL8822BE on Ubuntu 16.04

    I know this thread is about 16.04, but just to let you know, RTL8822BE works out of the box in 18.04 (alpha daily build), and works quite well. Something to look forward to in the next release.

  8. Re: Self-encrypting drive VS full disk encryption VS volume encryption

    Thanks, TheFu. I had to read up on a lot of what you mentioned.

    FDE using LUKS seems to be the preferred method for linux, but I dual boot, so it seems FDE is not an option.

    The setup I had in...
  9. Re: Wifi says connected, but cannot ping router/gateway or access internet

    Considering the problem the OP and I, and many others, have seems identical, I thought it would be helpful to combine efforts. But fine, to each their own thread.
  10. Self-encrypting drive VS full disk encryption VS volume encryption

    What is the current recommendation on using one or several of these methods?

    With self-encrypting drives (SED) I see the benefits of hardware acceleration, invisibility/seamlessness to the OS and...

  12. [ubuntu_mate] Re: 17.10 Live USB: random internet drops, but wireless connection fine

    mDNS, systemd-resolv, Avahi... maybe the problem has to do with some of these, based on searching, but still no solution. Any help?

    Turn off scrolling end animation

    In Ubuntu 16.04, after scrolling to the top or bottom limit, there is an aura-like animation (not sure what it's called) at the top or bottom edge of the window. Is it possible to disable this?

    The edge stickiness applies to the outer wireframe, making it hard to align the actual window as desired.
