    [ubuntu] Re: Missing static IP in landscape-sysinfo

    ip addr
    will show all IPs on a system. IPv4 and IPv4.

    If you want a prettier report, use inxi -ixx. Leave off the added 'x' if you want less information or just inxi -i

  2. Re: can not install Microsoft Edge on ubuntu 24.04

    Since this post hasn't gotten any replies in the last day, thought I'd post so you knew someone read it.

    Very few Linux users would touch Microsoft Edge. It isn't a core part of any Linux distro,...

    Re: Password and Login Screen

    Ah. You can change the requirements for password complexity in the PAM settings. I'd have to look up the exact method, but you can do that just as easily.

    There are methods for creating long,...
  4. [ubuntu_studio] Re: What 22.04 Background Services are Safe to Disable + Login Screen Turns Black

    currentshaft, Good that you have a $1500+ GPU. Enjoy. The most I've ever spent on a GPU was $130 and that was for a 3dfx model.
    I had nvidia GPUs for about 15 yrs, so my thoughts that "nvidia...

    Re: Password and Login Screen

    If you want to change the passwd for the current username, use passwd without any arguments in a terminal.

    If this is a local password, then that command will update the local password DB/shadow...

    I saw a quality 1TB SSD for $40 last week. It will last longer and be at least 5x faster.

    Just get one with a SATA connector - in Samsung SSDs, the models that begin with an "8xx" are SATA. I...
  8. [ubuntu_studio] Re: What 22.04 Background Services are Safe to Disable + Login Screen Turns Black

    Nothing constructive, just that nVidia sucks.

    About 2 yrs ago, I removed nVidia from my last system here. Things are so much easier. In my situation, the iGPU in a Ryzen 5600G is faster than...

    [ubuntu] Re: help with lxc networking

    My stance is, if it is important enough to have a container, then it is important enough to have a static IP.
    I'd never use DHCP for a container.
  10. Re: What personal information sent to VPN server to initialize an open VPN?

    The only way to know for certain is to read the code. you can try using wireshark, but in theory, no traffic would be sent after the initial challenge setup packets. From that point on, everything...

    As I said, time of use doesn't matter. Date from manufacture does.

    To know about the health of a HDD, use SMART data. smartctl is the tool for that. SMART data is only helpful about 78% of...
  12. Re: Error when running ansible-playbook from ubuntu20.04 ansible server to ubuntu24.0

    Try a fresh install.

    Or just get the newer version of ansible directly from their project page and don't bother with the debian packages.
  13. Re: What personal information sent to VPN server to initialize an open VPN?

    My reading says that traffic outside the Tor Browser needs to be specifically setup to use Tor. Looks like there is a per-application method to have each use Tor for networking, but it isn't enabled...

  15. Re: Error when running ansible-playbook from ubuntu20.04 ansible server to ubuntu24.0

    So, I'm able to reproduce the issue and it appears that Ansible 3.10.x is unsupported on 24.04. That means the repo version of ansible should not be used with 24.04 clients.


    It won't be fixed...
  16. Re: 24.04 causes my harddrive to say BRAAAPPP

    Using the device filename, /dev/sda1, is a bad idea. Those can change at every reboot depending on the order that storage devices are found. Use either a UUID or a LABEL instead for the mount.

    I looked up Entra - seems to be some sort of LDAP for Microsoft stuff. I fear you won't get many responses here, since we tend to use Linus for decentralized LDAP. There are a few cross-platform...

    Re: Why is my sound input switching itself?

    In the far right tab, set the microphone you don't want used to "off". That's it. When you want to use it again, run the program again and turn it on and turn off the other microphone.

    Re: Why is my sound input switching itself?

    It is the plugging in, not the unplugging that matters. So, you may need to unplug the webcam, then unplug the USB mic, wait 10 seconds, plug in the USB mic, then start your application. Many...
