I have an android phone that I had to take out of service. After deleting files, etc., since android doesn't actually delete stuff, I wanted to overwrite the "unused" space with zeroes (dd...
Not sure this is really solved. On my laptop (also 18.04), if I press the "airplane mode" key, wi-fi goes off, but I can turn it back on from the task bar. On my wife's laptop, when the wi-fi was...
Aha! It turns out that I just wasn't hitting the F-12 button hard enough. I'm surprised that "airplane mode" would be carried over through shutdown/startup.
My wife's laptop (18.04) just decided not to connect to wi-fi. It does connect in Windows. Here's what shows up in syslog when I click on "enable networking":

I'm baffled too. I guess I'll just delete them - and the modules.

Now that you mentioned it, I see that /lib/modules also has a ton of old stuff. All told, it's almost a gig of disk space.
When I try to remove the packages, apt says they're not installed. What's the danger in just deleting them? They're taking up over 300 MB of disk space.
Is there any earthly reason for keeping them in my system (in /usr/src)?
The POINT is that I'd like to know if this is a viable "hybrid". There are a lot of things I like about the Chromebook, and if I could have the best of both worlds, my next purchase might be one.
I'm using a Chromebook owned and maintained by AARP for doing taxes. In its settings, it says that it can run Linux commands by installing a beta version of Linux. I can't do the installation as I'm...
Needed to fsck the file system. Lots of errors.

(18.04) When I try to switch users in the Unity desktop, nothing happens except I get this error in syslog: "my_switch_to_username: assertion 'p->dm_seat != NULL' failed". I can switch users in...
This doesn't solve the problem. I copied a script, edited the copy, then renamed it to the original name, and when I tried to run the script, it failed with the "Text file busy" error message.
It just makes debugging scripts a little more complicated. It must be a "security" thing.
This isn't something limited to php, it happens with bash scripts too. The good news is that it isn't "forever," it eventually clears.
In ubuntu 20.04, php 7.4, I have a php script in a remotely mounted directory (nfs). The server where the script resides is running php-7.4. On the server, the script runs until I open it for editing...
Any reason why the sixth parameter on the fstab entry for /dev/sdc1 is 0? According to `man fstab` it should be 2 (as on the UUID= line for /home).
That's not the problem, but looking at the directory listing, I noticed that the one I installed is different (size) from the one running under 16.04. I hope this solves it. Thanks for the tip.
Here's the relevant syslog entry in 16.04:
May 28 11:46:19 Jupiter kernel: [ 5.169931] Linux video capture interface: v2.00

This is a fresh installation of 20.04. I copied Hauppauge's firmware file to /lib/firmware, but it fails with the following:

You may not be trying to mount what you think you're mounting. Mount it, cd to it and do `df .`. Find the UUID: `sudo blkid {whatever device df shows}` and substitute "UUID={block ID} for "/dev/sdc1"...
