Lie.
Google doesn't have my real name on the accounts either.

Store your lies inside your password manager.

I agree with CelticWarrior.
Encryption adds many complications. Best to just do a fresh install, then use your backup restore processes to put back your settings, data, configuration. Should take...

Did you do what it said in post #6 above?
Did you look in the /dev/mapper/ directory after that?
Show your work if you'd like help. Please.

Systemd device setup puts the MAC into some device names. That is expected since a version of systemd released into 16.04 and later.

First, need to check how far the connection is getting. If it can't ping the LAN router using the IP, then no connection is being made. I use wicd-cli to do that. It has a nice TUI. nmcli should be...

If you can remote into his system, just push the files. I assume you are using ssh for that?

I use an older wifi/network TUI program (the name escapes me now), but there is nmcli too. https://www.tecmint.com/nmcli-connect-wi-fi-from-linux-terminal/

Just curious, is your Windows system running an X/Server? You'd need to go out of your way to install and configure that.
For many people, x2go is a better solution to connect from Windows into a...

Yes.

sudo cp {source-device} {target-device}

Just be correct in picking the source and target devices. Get those backwards and it will be a very bad day/week/month/year.

If you want to clone...

Give it a week, but I bet you can get 2800 Mhz - which would feel faster. I think you'd notice that difference.

Is the NAS location mounted? or using autofs?

I've never gotten AppImages to work based on symlinks. The way the AppImage unpacks includes some overly simplified efforts to figure out the...

Matched sets matter greatly with DDR4. I moved from 16G to 32G after 2 yrs. Suppose I could return under the "lifetime warranty" and ask for a 4-stick matched timing set?



1800 Mhz is the...

Whenever looking at LVM stuff, use these commands to get an overview:

sudo pvs
sudo vgs
sudo lvs
lsblk -e 7 -o name,size,type,fstype,mountpoint
They make nice text tables/graphs of the layout....

I have a Ryzen 2600, Asus B450 ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING MB, and 32GB total G.Skill F4-3200C16-8GVKB RAM (4 sticks of 8GB ea). Ensure the MB firmware is completely up to date. I use the built-in...

Seems you need to contact the ISP and have them renew their cert if they haven't already handled it. It isn't an issue on your system or one that you can do anything about. If some other mail...

You've made statements. Is there a question that someone might be able to help?
Can't you just print out the paper and mail it in? I know ZERO about India's tax laws.

PulseAudio wants the last connected audio device to be used. Try unplugging the headphones, AFTER the monitor is connected, then reconnect them.

Also, use pavucontrol to disable the monitor...

For typical home users, it is sufficient.
There are exceptions for systems running network services. If you didn't specifically setup up a service, don't worry.

That is 100% a router question and depends on the router firmware. Nobody here can answer, assuming it is possible. That change can only happen inside the router.

The manpage for that command says:

NAME
kpartx - Create device maps from partition tables.

SYNOPSIS
kpartx [-a|-d|-u|-l] [-r] [-p] [-f] [-g] [-s] [-v] wholedisk

I'd have to read the manpage for that command to know.

Thanks kurt18947, m-disc is it. The m-disc drives do work with normal DVDs and blurays too, I understand, so they aren't 1-trick tools.

Thanks for the clarity. I'll ignore sda.

If you backed up the whole drive, not just the partitions that you want, you'll need to use some math or kpartx to figure out where the partition(s) are...

I've had GigE realtek and maxell NICs fail or be really slow. Some of the Realtek RTL8111 come in many, many, many, different versions - some work well out of the box, and others don't work at all,...

^^^^^^^^^^^ This. All storage is going to fail. We don't get to pick when. Sometimes it fails on day 2 and sometimes it fails after 15 yrs. Often, drives provide hints that something is wrong, but...
