antivirtel's questions

I'm using latest Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS on a HPE MicroServer, I have a HPE P420 RAID card with battery, with 4 HDDs attached in 2 logical arrays, one is a mirror of 2pcs of 1 TB HDDs (root), and one mirror of 2pcs of 4 TB HDDs (storage). I have Zoneminder running on it and I was trying to do a bit of a cleanup, and surprised how slow the rm -rf dir/* was taking. After a bit of research I realised it's a problem of XFS, so I was trying to tune it a bit, that's when I found this article (or other similar ones, I kept seeing the same things in multiple articles).

So I tried to add these mount options, but unfortunately mount refuses to mount the partition (storage for a start) with those new options. The problem is that doesn't tell me which option is incorrect, this is the only output of $ sudo mount -av:

part A         : ignored
swap           : ignored
/path/to/mount : wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.

(also tried debug options: export LIBMOUNT_DEBUG=all, but it doesn't seem to show anything extra, if there is no mount happening, if it actually mounts something, there are extra lines displayed.)

This is how is the /etc/fstab looks like for that partition:

# DOESN'T WORK:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/b...7 /path/to/mount xfs rw,relatime,attr2,logbufs=8,logbsize=256k,sunit=2048,swidth=2048,largeio,inode64,swalloc,allocsize=131072k,nobarrier,noquota 0 0

# the defauls work:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/b...7 /path/to/mount xfs defaults 0 0

Is there a way of quickly finding which mount option is incorrect? Other than going through all the options one by one then mount after eact, to see which is the incorrect one, which takes long...

Thank you!

I have a Lenovo ThinkPad E525 with this GPU:

00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Sumo [Radeon HD 6480G]

After upgrading to 16.04 from 14.04 (fglrx driver) I have the following issue with VLC: it plays one video per opening it. If I'd like to play a next video / open another one, it will not display anything, just plays the sound of the video. After restarting VLC it will play that video.

I see this error message in the log:

vdpau_display vout display error: presentation queue display failure: An invalid handle value was provided. Either the handle does not exist at all, or refers to an object of an incorrect type.

I've Googled around, but nothing really helped. I've also tried to upgrade VLC a bit. Unfortunately, it didn't help.

Did someone met this issue? Could someone help?

I tried to install Teamviewer 9 on Ubuntu 14.04, unsuccessfully.

I've downloaded the following extra(Raring) packages:

But these errors were happened while I was installing the packages (I've also tried install with Ubuntu's Software Center, the same):

Do someone know how to install the Teamviewer on 14.04?

(A related question found here.)

I've been used 11.04, now 12.04 LTS, and if there is solution, I don't want to upgrade from that LTS.

The first problem is, that the network-manager/networking behaves wrong:

• when I'm on battery, the WiFi connects (the mobile broadband also), but no network can be accessed, like when something timing out. If I connect the AC charger, it immediately starts working.
• usually just lists the options: enable network, enable wireless network, enable mobile broadband, edit networks & network information, there are no lists of available networks, etc...

Bluetooth:

• The Bluetooth is always turns on on start up, but when I turn it off on another 12.04 LTS, it remembers, and doesn't turn on on start up.

Conclusion: this laptop is no longer mobile, it requires AC charger to connect to networks.

What I have tried to solve the main problem?

• Upgrade the network-manager, to the latest daily PPA version: 0.9.6.0~git201208071622.5714-0~pkg562~precise1
• replace wireless driver with b43, but is was not supported (How do I get a Broadcom BCM4313 wireless card working?)
• upgrade the BIOS. Now I have version A05, the latest is A06, but I couldn't because I haven't found the HDR file in Dell's repos (there is no system_bios_ven_0x1028_dev_0x0470_version_A06 dir), and I could't generate if from the Windows executable (wine /writehdrfile /nopause now doesn't work) - original tutorial is here

I have a small internet cafe with 7-9 Ubuntu 12.04 workstations. Unfortunately, I can't be there every week.

I've seen a Java solution to upgrade the system, after a normal (non-sudo/admin) user requests a shut down (but not restart!) the system upgrades itself - the base system is Ubuntu 10.04 as I remember, but the programs, and the desktop manager is fully customized, with custom softwares (eg. to check the printers' ink level...)

That's why I thought, that if I could set up something similar in our environment, it would be very useful. I've already scripted in Bash, and used Zenity, so I only want to know:

1. how can I call/run my script?
2. how can I run root commands(sudo required) inside that script? (eg. sudo poweroff or halt)

I'm wondering, if I can store the passphrase of an encrypted disk in /etc/crypttab encrypted - and only possible to decrypt that by that OS, where I created. Is it possible?

(because, I want auto mount the disk after a restart, but I don't want to allow to read that password from the file with a simple live disk)

Thanks

I'm using GIMP every day (on 11.10). Because of this, I need the Single-Window mode feature.

So, I've added the matthaeus123/mrw-gimp-svn PPA, but as you see the description:

GIMP 2.7.5 Will not work with the current glib and gtk in Oneiric. To fix the problem install these repos

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gnome3-team/gnome3/ubuntu oneiric main

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ricotz/testing/ubuntu oneiric main

I had to install them. The Gnome3 repo is quite OK, but the Ricotz Testing is full of new unity and other not needed update.

As the result of the previous, I'm experiencing some UI inconveniences. (Eg. the backgrounds and the text colors of the indicators' menus are nearly the same - so hard to read them.) (As it is shown there:)

You are getting bleeding edge snapshots! You should have a stable experience most of the time, but there will be problems!

I've googled around about repo prioritizing, and I've found the repo host pin option:

 Package: *
 Pin: origin "ftp.debian.org"
 Pin-Priority: 400

It is too much! I've other PPAs, whose are OK. I wanna just the bad one: ricotz/testing.

I've heard about PPA-Purge. So the downgrade won't be a problem. I just wonder the prioritizing of the repos, OR other sources of GIMP Single-Window mode+Gnome Shell(3).

Please help me! Thank you!

My friend told me, that without public IP of the workstations, I can access machines remotely. But I'm a rather confused in using VPN, I don't understand how can it manage to connect. I saw this video about VPN's mechanism, but he didn't mentioned building them.

The situation is:

• I have an office, with its workstations. Sure, the computers are connected to the Internet.
• I have computers at home, and my other working places with Internet access.

How can I access the office machines with VPN without server with public IP from everywhere? Can you show me a complete tutorial?

(I saw TeamViewer, Hamachi, but if it possible, I want to use a private VPN.)

Thank you very much!

I'm working in a small council. Here is some Ubuntu (with GNOME - no KDE) based workstations in our library. Using the computers is free now, before it was only /hour, what is not a high cost. I'm looking for a software, which can help me to manage the computers. How I mean:

• Notice the user after X minutes, to give her/his place for another user (if there are someone) = A text notice after X minutes (it would be better, if it gives a small signal too with the hardware speaker).
• Auto (& remote) shutdown of the workstations, (also disable them). [Auto power on is not required, because the users can push that power button, if they want to use the machines :D]
• Statistics and other infos about workstations, also their health status (I know munin, but included feature would be better). Eg: temps, SMART datas, login time, remaining time...
• (Updating all systems at once...)
• Free

Maybe, cafe softwares won't meet my requirements, I don't know how can I call that software for that situation. I can also appreciate multi software solution.

I read this page, but these softwares are focused on paying.

After some months, my Chrome(now 10.0.648.127 beta; but I tried with the lastest stable too) displayed some popular sites in English, instead of my Chrome & system language, which is Hungarian...

I saw my User-Agent, which shows in Chrome: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/10.0.648.127 Safari/534.16

But in Firefox: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; hu-HU; rv:1.9.2.15) Gecko/20110303 Ubuntu/10.04 (lucid) Firefox/3.6.15, what is correct...

My question is: How can I change my user-agent(maybe dynamically, by version)? I tried with google-chrome --user-agent "text", but it failed in the newest versions.

I have a special thing: I want to share my scanner over the network. The scanner is connected to a Windows 7 machine, but I want to use it from Ubuntu 10.04...

I found some methods:

• USB over Network - it can handle Linux > Windows; and Windows > Windows it has Windows (and Windows CE) & Linux server, but it has only Windows client, their Linux client is coming soon - that's a drag :( - it is not free, but what uses Windows, what is free?

• USBip - to Linux > Linux, it is free, and nice

I'm looking for the other way, what can handle Windows > Linux thing... I prefer free things, but that thing is maybe not free...

I have in my office, a Konica Minolta bizhub 211 multifunction printer, it works well with windows workstations... It has a lot of good features, like duplex...

I haven't found any drivers for UNIX, so I'm looking for alternative methods, how can we make it useable in Ubuntu. I'm thinking on some windows based server, or what I know...

It's id in lsusb: 132b:2052

I wrote here requesting for drivers: ubuntu.hu, linuxforums.org, forums.debian.net, ubuntuforums.org; and also to the manufacturer, but they said only, that "the first PostScript supported printer is only bizhub 223", so they don't care that thing.

Update: I've heared about the raw printing method trough a normal Windows workstation. Have someone got any information about this workaround?

Please suggest working methods,

Thanks, B. Roland

I have an old machine, and I want to use for that to learn employees how to use Ubuntu, and to be easyer to switch from Windows. I've been installed 10.04, and updated, but this strange stuff is happend. Graphical installion failed, same strange thing. With alternate workd.

Sometimes, when I boot up, a boot message displayed: Keyboard failure..., often diplayed after reboot, and after shutdown, when I haven't plugged off from AC. I replaced the keyboard yet, same failure... If I powered off, and plugged off from AC, no keyboard problems displayed in boot time.

Details

Configuration: Dell OptiPlex GX60 - in original cover, no changes.

• 256 MB DDR 166 MHz
• Intel® Celeron® Processor 2.40 GHz
• Dell 0C3207 Base Board

I know, that is not enough, but I have three other Nec compuers, with nearly similar config, and they works well with 9.10, 10.04, 10.10.

Live CDs

I've been tried with 10.04 and 10.10, but the problem is displayed too. With 9.10 no strange things displayed, but it froze, during a simple apt-get install.

Syslog

An error loop is logged here, but I paste the whole startup and error lines. The flashing lines are displayed sometimes immediately after login, but sometimes after 10 minutes, but once occured, that nothing happend.

Strange thing is displayed immediately after login: here.

An other boot, after some minutes, strange lines, and loop in log appeard: here.

The loop should be that:

May be it a hardware problem, but I don't know...

Can you say something useful to solve my problem?

In Hungary, the biggest TV channel is RTL Klub, they has a video archive site. They use Silverlight instead of Flash :( What is annoying, they use the lastest version of Silverlight, about 4.x. But Moonlight doesn't support it yet.

I've been tried in Google Chrome (last dev version), and in Firefox (last stable version), and I've been used the both versions of Moonlight, the lastest stable, and the prerelease.

The player loader is displayed, and loaded, but no player displayed after 30 mins waiting.

If I want to switch to Ubuntu completly, how can I manage to play these videos?

Thanks for your anwsers.

Testvideo here. And this is a working video for me.

Also reported to moonlight developers, here.

I have a small public internet cafe, with Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10. I'm using Google Chrome 7.0.517.44 (64615), with AutoScroll - Version: 2.7.5; AdBlock is removed because of high CPU loads, and unconfortable speed of machine.

"Your profile could not be opened correctly" error is displayed: This image is only an illustration.

The reason is that I changed permissions of some config files, to don't remember the history, there are no setting in options, to don't use history.

I've been removed write permission to:

~/.config/google-chrome$ find . -group nopasswdlogin
./Default/Archived History
./Default/History
./Default/Visited Links

When I solved all of my problem, I'll remove some other write permission, this is a public place.

What methods are known to HIDE this message? Thanks!
