Am I the only one seeing 24gigs missing here? Should have 24+ free space. not 1.1. And either way it wouldn't show 100%. The math is off.

To further respond to an earlier post about the bottles Battle.net script not working. I was in a mood yesterday and I apologize. I restored my backup get a configuration dump. I've never had much...

Just install it manually. Screw the script. Didn't even know there was a script. 8.06 or w/e version of wine. Solved. Although I just deleted it finally because I'm sick of the mini game crap in...

I'd also like to add the suggestion of the Bottles flatpak. It's self contained so you don't have to worry about foreign packages on your system running amok. And it has run everything I've tried....

I flip flop between Ubuntu and a pure Debian base quite often, I can't explain why.

The thing that keeps me coming back to Ubuntu specifically is I like having a corporate structure behind it. I...

You can write a script fired by a systemd service to configure iptables on boot. I know there is a better way but this is what I ended up doing. Easier for me to mess with a script than anything...

I don't understand this statement. Either the program can be compiled or it can't. At the end of the day you can't rely on out of date software to build your stuff.

Does the partition restore restore the UUID as well? If your fstab is going by uuid, which it should then boot doesn't exist according to it. You need to update the fstab if this is the case. You...

command line. terminal based tools. most linux users in my experience try to do this for everything but sometimes it just isn't worth it. the gui can be quicker and save headaches in some cases. Not...

I know the cli is the way people want to go. I just rip them with Asunder and call it a day. No screwing around for the perfect combination of flags to pass. CLI is nearly always faster. But...

You can cut the size of the name of your variables and function names. That should gain a surprising amount of characters depending on how often those variables and functions are used. Maybe keep a...

The myth user is set to nologin if I recall. If you give it a password and change shell to bash it should do what you want

Is likely all mythbuntu does.

You shouldn't need to create the myth user. The package will do it for you. You can su to that user if you need to but little to no reason for it I can think of.

Apt just update the flatpak package itself.


flatpak update is what you want. Use sudo for snap refresh. Sudo your flatpak update only if you did them as root and not your user.

With a few...

I haven't bothered tracking this one myself but I've seen it on Jammy with HWE and the current Elementary OS 7.1. In my case it sits there a minute then loads up anyway. As it hasn't caused me an...

depends on snap and flatpaks. with ubuntu defaulting / demanding snaps moving forward var will need to grow more and more each release I'd surmise. Gone are the days of a 2g var or whatever people...

Then there is the fully manual method of editing the sources list, and running the upgrade in turn as straight Debian does.
This is not the recommended way to do Ubuntu but it does work as long as...

You can use Handbrake from the command line. Maybe a python or shell script and away it goes. Shouldn't be to complicated. Don't need a special tool.

Stuff like that won't tell you what version you have installed. It will default to something simple for any distro unless someone specifically modifies it. If you are using an official Ubuntu spin of...

I'd say something is wrong with Chrome. This is the exact address I'm looking at this thread.

Looks like https to me. Firefox for the record.

Load a live linux distro. Then mount the root partition of your machine to /mnt and run
sudo chroot /mnt or whatever the path is. Then you can use
usermod --shell /bin/bash "$USERNAME" Afterwards...

Forgive me, your description is a bit muddy. Looks like you wanted to add a dedicated user for samba access? In this case you did it correctly but you can't login to that user directly. You need to...

I don't know what you intend to use for software for this. I put together a Zoneminder docker. I don't know if it's any good of course, but it works for me. The entire gui to it is a web interface. I...

I know in my case with an LTSP pxe system I have running Ubuntu I keep the nvidia driver installed in the chroot along with the mesa amd drivers. It seems to pick whichever one depending on what...
