  1. [ubuntu] Re: Installing .deb files using the app center in Ubuntu 23.10

    What exactly happens when you choose a .deb package in the App Center for installation? You need to explain further.
  2. Re: Install application from file and run it in Terminal

    Sorry, I'm not familiar with this other than it is an android thing. Since everything you tried has failed, you may be correct in that it's something you can't do on your system.
  3. [lubuntu] Re: Not all the partition is being used: how to fix

    You will find out that gparted cannot manage LVM devices. You need to use a terminal.

    [ubuntu] Re: Low disk space on file system root (1Gb)

    Have you checked the size of the journal recently? Removing old entries can recover a GB or more of space, depending on how long they have been accumulating.

  5. Re: Install application from file and run it in Terminal

    I followed my own proposed steps in post #7 and Blender launched as expected with a double-click. So that should work if done as shown.

    Now, to get a launcher for the program:

  6. Re: Install application from file and run it in Terminal

    O.K, other suggestions: I think either of these will work for you and be ready to use after install.

    (1) Install blender as a snap application. You get version 4.1, like the downloaded version.

    [ubuntu] Re: Trying to resize sda5 volume

    I didn't notice that this is a virtual disk before post #10. The suggestion about using the installer CD won't work. I had a case like this where expanding a virtual machine partition was done...
  9. Re: assistence needed: /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv full, but lsblk says 800Gb f

    To resize the file system of ubuntu-lv to use all the space in the lv:

    sudo resize2fs /dev/ubuntu-vg/ubuntu-lv
    This can be done on a mounted file system.
  10. Re: Install application from file and run it in Terminal

    The archive is blender-4.1.0-linux-x64.tar.xz
    probably sitting in Downloads.

    What I would try:

    I would first extract the contents of the archive (to Downloads).

    The result should be a...
  11. Re: Install application from file and run it in Terminal

    /usr/bin is a location automatically searched for applications, so you just type blender in the terminal and it should start.

    [ubuntu] Re: Trying to resize sda5 volume

    Are the partitions mounted? You need to do the resizing from the live media (installer) because you cannot resize a mounted partition.

    For Plasma Desktop, you should download and use the installer for Kubuntu, not Ubuntu:

    It's installable from the Extension Manager. See image attached.
  16. [ubuntu] Re: How to rescue .wav files on the scratched music CD.

    it appears that it is reading the TOC, but then can't copy the data of track 1?

    My copy output was this:

  17. [ubuntu] Re: How to rescue .wav files on the scratched music CD.

    It would be nice to see Brasero give an error message. You may be more likely to see one with the cdrdao command. I decided to check it out. There were several command options, but I used it to make...
  18. [ubuntu] Re: How to rescue .wav files on the scratched music CD.

    cdrdao (see the link in post #27 by tea for one) looks like it is a utility that would help in recovery when the TOC has errors. It's new to me and I'm making note of it if ever needed. I suggest you...
  19. [ubuntu] Re: Newly Installed Apps do not appear in Applications Menu

    In your system, you still need them all. We see only vlc uses core18. If you notice vlc updating, the newer version may also switch to a newer core. Then you can remove the unused core18. You can...
  20. [ubuntu] Re: How to rescue .wav files on the scratched music CD.

    If it's a good playable CD, then I have only used the GUI ripper/encoders. For example, asunder. It has a preferences dialog with all the encoder settings, like destination, encoding format (mp3,...
  21. [ubuntu] Re: How to rescue .wav files on the scratched music CD.

    How it works (to the best of my knowledge):

    A ripper works one track at a time using location information in the CD's table of contents (TOC). If the TOC of the CD is damaged, the start bit of...

    Look at the man page of cdparanoia. That has all the options and what they do.

    OK, you got my attention.

    I looked at this just now with a retail audio CD. When inserted in a DVD drive, a lot of reading goes on and "Audio disc" appears in "Places" menu. When I selected that,...
  25. [ubuntu] Re: How to rescue .wav files on the scratched music CD.

    If you have .wav files stored on a CD, then it has a file system and isn't an audio CD (which doesn't). So utilities that read audio CDs will not help here. My guess is that you probably have to use...
