    [ubuntu] Re: How to read .max files

    The .max of 3ds max and the ones from Paperport are very unlikely to be even remotely similar. 3D Studio Max is (like blender) a program for creating three dimensional graphics and it's .max format...
  2. Re: Install Authy app after Twilio removed it from snap store

    The actual snap packages are stored in /var/lib/snapd/snaps/. There should be one file with the extension 'snap' in that directory on the old system that is the application you want to transfer and...

    [ubuntu] Re: Renaming files with a list

    If the names in the second list are the same as the ones in the first list except for the numbers in the beginning, then you don't even need to have the first list for a script to do the renaming.

  4. [ubuntu] Re: running an alias at startup/bootup

    Also aliases are not expanded in non-interactive shells, so you can't use them in scripts. If you need alias-like functionality inside a script you should use a function. Functions are a lot more...
  5. [SOLVED] Re: install MPLABX on github ci/cd libusb-1.0.so not found

    I don't know what version (and flavour) of Ubuntu you're using, but on Xubuntu 22.04 there is no libusb-1.0.so; there is a '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libusb-1.0.so.0.3.0' with a symbolic link...

    [ubuntu] Re: Browser Suggestion

    There's an official repository by Mozilla for Firefox as a Debian package. You need to set some preferences to stop it from 'updating' to snap but once that's done everything works as expected. See...
  7. Re: How create an command to run in each minute ?

    Wouldn't it be simpler to write a small wrapper script for your program that checks for left-over .map files after the program has run and removes them ? Instead of calling rpcs3 directly you'd start...

    [SOLVED] Re: Snap store won't update

    And to explain why the 'killall' is necessary: snap-store can't update itself while it's running. To make matters worse, snap-store is a re-skin of gnome-software, a program that doesn't shut down...

  10. [ubuntu] Re: I cannot unzip a gz file as saying permssion denied. Please help as new to this

    Your screenshot looks like you're working on a Windows C: drive mounted as /mnt/c/. This might be read-only due to Windows not un-mounting properly. gunzip can't write the unzipped file there. Copy...

    [ubuntu] Re: I hate GPG

    'apt-key' being deprecated doesn't mean you have to learn and use gpg. It means that instead of having one keyring-file (/etc/apt/trusted.gpg) which you administer using apt-key you should use the...

    Re: Update 14.04 LTS (is it possible)

    A Mac from 2002 ? That's probably not an Intel Mac but one with a PowerPC processor. In that case you're better off using Debian instead of Ubuntu because that AFAIK still supports PPC .

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

    The limiting factor for the duration of copyright on recordings of classical music actually isn't the lifetime of the composer but of the performers. Performing (and recording) a piece of music is...

    It's a phased update. You can tell by running 'apt-cache policy coreutils'. The output says 'phased 30%'.

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

    Another option (after making copies of the readable tracks) would be to try to resurface the disk. Obviously this can go horribly wrong, but if you've got the readable tracks of the disk copied first...

  19. Re: it's true selecting application alsa first goes to pulseaudio ?

    Pulseaudio is still around, but is already partially superseded by pipewire. These two give you the ability to have multiple programs produce sound at the same time - they are acting as mixers (among...

    The command line tool for managing 'Ubuntu Pro' is called 'pro'. So a simple

  22. [ubuntu] Re: Newly Installed Apps do not appear in Applications Menu

    How did you install Blender ? If you installed it from the Software Center / Snap-store / Ubuntu Store (or whatever it's called now ...) it should have set up a menu item.
