Thanks ian-weisser that worked!

I am trying to install gmpy2 which I followed the directions https://gmpy2.readthedocs.org/en/latest/intro.html#installing-gmpy2-on-unix-linux however I get an ImportError: No module name gmpy2

In a recent update this has been updated. I don't know which update over the last few days but this problem has been fixed.

Initializing nautilus-dropbox 1.6.0


(nautilus:10266): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_set: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed


(nautilus:10266): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **:...

Very little. I am not the best at reading error messages but if you have any suggested commands let me know and I will try them.

Either after installing one of the latest updates or dropbox nautilus (GNOME nautilus 3.8.2) crashes. Once I open my home folder after about three seconds it closes out. Also none of my files saved...

I have a similar problem I transfer files over bluetooth while not ideal it does work (assuming you have bluetooth on your computer).

DuckHook,

For NAS I am looking for a stable, and power efficient solution. I agree it doesn't have to be a commercially sold "solution". However as this will be power on all of the time many of...

Thanks DuckHook. Do you recommend any NAS in particular? Also if you had two hard drives would you setup RAID 1 on a NAS or one hard drive on a desktop and backup to the other hard drive on the NAS?

Just wondering what people do to store and backup their data...RAID, NAS, Cloud, etc?

The end result is to figure out what is the best (balance: simplicity, redundancy, cost) way to store and...

You have mispelled 'else' after the first if statement. That should fix it.

What type of servers do you have setup and how do you sync them?

The reason I ask is I am in the planning stages of building a HTPC and I was thinking about RAID 1 to save all of my movies but if...

I took a look at my sister's laptop hard drive with S.M.A.R.T. from the disk utility from Ubuntu Live and got a bunch of errors. I am wondering if I need to replace this ASAP or if this can work for...

Thanks Mark. That is kinda my thought just an anomaly but wasn't sure if there is more to it.

This was on my Dad's desktop computer standard 1TB Seagate SATA. The computer is less than three years old so it came as a surprise to me that it failed so soon. I had daily backups to another...

Is it likely to get bad sectors because of loss of power on a desktop computer?

So after I connected my Dad's old hard drive that has bad sectors I am having problems copying one file. I removed the hard drive from his Windows 7 desktop and connected it to my Ubuntu desktop. I...

Thanks both of you for your help.

I did a SMART report which is how I confirmed that it was a bad hard drive. I will see if I can export it and post it. I like the idea of marking the bad...

I have a hard drive with bad sectors I will replace this then install the OS. I am wondering can the hard drive with bad sectors be used again but not use the bad sectors?

Hello John,

This one is new for me but from my understanding this will appear when something goes wrong with Ubuntu allowing very basic UNIX utilities to function allowing you to troubleshoot.

Hello Steelmesh,

I would have to recommend using a wired connection especially for the server uses that you have listed as it is much more stable.

If that is not an option it would be very...

BAM!...it works, thanks Major_Bloodnok

I have tried this before.


source def.shHowever I get an error.


main.sh: 3: source: not found

The file is in the same folder and I have tried absolute paths too.

Just trying to create a simple BASH script that the main.sh file calls a function in the def.sh file.

main.sh

#!/bin/bash
./def.sh
test
exit
def.sh

I had a similar problem when I tried to install my drivers I think this is what I did for mine (but could be wrong).

The driver below work for most but double check yours


wget...
