Somewhere on my 10T NAS devise is a file named exactly .avi.
I have tried find, locate and ls. All return either all files ending with extension .avi or nothing at all.
How can I find it explicitly?
I am running a NAS box with a smb share //192.168.1.16/media
The share is available from all Windows and Android clients.
On Ubuntu PCs it can be accessed with file browsers like Nemo or Nautilus as smb://192.168.1.16/media
However, on the Ubuntu (14.04) PCs the share cannot be mounted from fstab. The fstab line is
//192.168.1.16/media /mnt/readynas cifs username=validuser,password=validpassword 0 0
which on sudo mount -a returns:
mount: special device //192.168.1.16/media does not exist
Clearly, the device does exist.
Any clues, hints or tips?
Previous mythtv versions had an option under the front end TV settings setup to control the amount of free hard disk space the system should maintain. I cannot find that setting in 0.27 and the mythtvbackend/ frontend is now constantly running into "out of disk space" problems.
Anyone now a work around or, if the setting still exists, where it can be found?
I have an Ubuntu 14.04, AMD A8 APU based hardware, and Catalyst CC (14.10?) installed. The screen is a JVC 40" HD LED LCD connected via HDMI.
The issues are:
- Catalyst thinks the display is a projector. Settings > Display says it's a 32" DTV.
- The display underscans, leaving a large black border.
- The LCD TV has no over/under scan adjustment control, and the scaling option usually available in Catalyst is also missing. I suspect this is due to Catalyst thinking there's a projector hanging off the HDMI port.
- Catalyst will not save the refresh rate, always coming up at 30hertz after a reboot. This causes screen flicker. The rate needs to be 50hertz or more, which I can set for the session, but as stated is lost on a reboot.
I suspect these problems are all related to the mis-identification of the LED LCD screen as a projector.
How can I fix it?
I'm using xubuntu 14.04 on AMD based hardware. It is configured not to lock a session and not to power down automatically on longer idle times.
There have been no recent changes or new software installations other than notified security updates.
I also have the kde desktop installed. The display manager is LightDM, AFAIK.
The system has been behaving nicely for some months, until a couple of days ago. Now, after about ten minutes idle the session is locked automatically. The screen presents a dialog with the caption "This session is locked".
Attempting to "unlock" with the session's username and password results with the message
"You'll be redirected to the unlock dialog in a few seconds" and the cycle starts over. Unable to log in, the only option seems to be to reboot. (I won't mention the work I have just lost":-( )
Does anyone have any idea what's going on here, bearing in mind that AFAIK the power managers are configured NOT to lock sessions and not to power down on idle?
Thanks
I have scoured the 'net for an answer and am here as a last resort; I have a "NAS" running Ubuntu Server. It boots from a 250G HDD and there are 4 X 1T HDDs formatted as LVM.
The boot HDD crashed and there is no backup
The LVM has a backup but is a few days out of date. Ideally I'd like to recover the LVM HDDs.
Is there a relatively simple way to do that?
