The above is what I followed and got gpu passthrough working. It's a bit in depth and explains a bunch. Ultimately it's...

I don't fully understand what you are doing as I prefer KVM. Maybe just switch the network to bridged mode inside Virtualbox then create a regular samba share and map it like that? Then for all...

Can you not just do a net install then on first boot
sudo apt install kubuntu-desktop

Yes i am mystified still. I didn't figure it out myself and am clueless on how it all works. I googled. But it works and it's a simple process assuming you have the hardware.

Yesterday I found out my current cpu / mobo could support iommu. As such I achieved a goal I've wanted awhile now. How to run my Windows games easily while still being able to run Linux without dual...

Please post
systemctl status minidlna

I know nothing of Ubuntu Studio but this thread reminded me that I hadn't reinstalled it on my server when I did a fresh install to 20.04. I followed the...

paste.ubuntu for damn near everything. just habit. don't have a specific reason.



True but then you might get less hits due to people from a Windows background who have lived their whole life...

There are standards you should follow to help out people in the future working on the line. That being said as long as both ends are the same then it will work.

Seems like an awful complicated process. Why didn't you just add a new user with proper groups, chown -R and rename the entire /home /"$USER" dir and move on with life? Are you trying to save the uid...

Is it a laptop with a hardware wifi on off switch? Could be that simple?

I've been messing about with Steam's remote play. I was getting 50fps in World of Warcraft on my living room tv over a regular cat5e network at gigabit. But the client certainly isn't a zero client,...

I've been trying to clean up the host system as much as possible. OCD thing. Moving everything not in ubuntu repositories I can to docker or snaps and eliminating ppas and external repos from the...

Topic says it all. When I use the apt based Docker I can edit the daemon.json to include my Dnsmasq and all is well in the world. However when using the Snapd version I'm not sure how to do it. I...

I was referring to network bridging. Then the vms are viewed as just another machine on the lan. At that point configuration is no different than anything else.

I am far from experienced but wouldn't bridging the vms so they exist on the physical lan be the quick answer here? Then they are no different than any other machine on the lan?

Beowulf clustering is what you should look for. Depending on your load it may or may not be worth the effort.

One of those "sounds like a good idea".
But in practice more trouble than necessary...

One thing I didn't think to mention is for installations / upgrades themselves. At the moment I have a 250gb ssd in my desktop. I keep 175gb for my data, 2gb for swap, and 30g for root. I've...

Wide open question. I am not a picture person, nor are any of my family. It just was never a thing for us. However I see the occasional thread about backups, most containing something about a vast...

I'm going to mark this solved for now. I'm going to have to do some testing and research but I dropped multi-seat, problem remained. Changed my fstab nfs mounts from automount to full time defaults...

Marking solved. I worked my way through countless permutations of the squid configuration file. Similar to Windows updates one must bypass. I did this by creating an ACL for bypass, and adding the...

I've been hammering things out here to get myself behind squid for both http and https. I've got it all worked out except for Minecraft. It says it can't get online. If I disable the proxy I can log...

They are mutually exclusive. Drop in replacement for each other is why can't have both.

I'm curious what issues you speak of between Mythtv & Mariadb. I've been running it just fine for a few years.

I'm assuming you have database backups. If so then it should be as easy as purging...

I'm not sure if this is helpful but when I moved my squid to Docker with Snapd I had to create a shim script to hold it till the rest of the machine was ready else it failed to start every single...

Bumping after editing to make simpler and clearer.
