What to do when Linux is frozen? Posted: 30 Dec 2019 07:42 AM PST Hello, Sometimes when I work on my Linux Mint, my computer gets totally frozen. For example I open a video... *clickclick* and vlc is opening, when suddenly, everything is frozen. The panel below is not responding, none of the windows are not responding, nothing, everything is dead. So I hit ctrl+alt+F1 to get to the tty1, sign in and type "sudo pkill vlc", and sometimes it helps, but sometimes it doesn't and when it happens, I have no idea what to do next. Sudo killall obviously wants to other attributes to execute. I tried sudo killall -u once, but it only killed literally everything so I had to restart computer anyway. When I get into htop, I usually try to kill some processes to see if any of them are to blame - firefox and so on, but mostly it does nothing and I am not sure from the htop list which one is the one freezing my OS and how to tell. Is there a trick for this one aside of constantly rebooting my system? Thanks [link] [comments] |
Posted: 30 Dec 2019 01:56 PM PST Im using Linux from a bootable USB and I can not find the option to connect to wifi. In the top right all I see is an ethernet connection. When I try to add a new wifi connection it saves all the info but doesn't connect. Any suggestions? [link] [comments] |
Absolutely puzzled as to why my network card is not being properly recognised by the OS. Posted: 30 Dec 2019 10:08 AM PST I recently installed elementaryOS on a Dell XPS 13 2in1 7390, which uses a Killer WiFi AX1650 networking card. Not once has it recognised the card. Here is the
For the record: -I am on kernel 5.4.6, so this is not a kernel compatibility issue. -I am on the latest BIOS version, and the network card is enabled from BIOS. -I am on elementaryOS 5.1 Hera. -The card functioned on Windows, so it isn't a lemon. [link] [comments] |
How Can I Change My Internet Connection in XFCE? Posted: 30 Dec 2019 09:56 AM PST My wifi is going to be down for maintenance tomorrow. I'd like to connect to my hotspot. How can I change my internet connection. I'm using Ubuntu 18 xfce interface. [link] [comments] |
Any way to update BIOS when manufacturer provides only .exe to run bios updater program? Posted: 29 Dec 2019 04:30 PM PST Dell Optiplex 790, running Linux Mint Cinnamon 19. After installing on a fresh SDD (I bought the computer without a HDD), I realized the BIOS is out of date. Dell's website provides software to update the BIOS, but it's an .exe file. I tried it with both Playonlinux and Wine, and both crash. Is there any way to update the BIOS without installing Windows? Thanks in advance - and a big thank you to all the Devs that make linux such a great experience, even for noobs like me. [link] [comments] |

Question about how to install without any other os Posted: 30 Dec 2019 01:23 PM PST I'm building my first pc and I dont want to run windows, I want to run ubuntu but I cant find a tutorial on how to boot with ubuntu. Any help? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 30 Dec 2019 01:12 PM PST So I have a dual boot for Windows 10 and Ubuntu and Ubuntu started to give me some problems. I can't boot because after selecting the Ubuntu option I get the underscore blinking forever. So I am thinking of reinstalling Linux but trying another distro, probably manjaro, just to see how things are. In order to uninstall Ubuntu, will I just need to delete the partitions? Or should I also remove GRUB/reconfigure the windows boot thing? [link] [comments] |
Slow (delayed) navigation stops me from using tmux. Is it fixable? Posted: 30 Dec 2019 01:11 PM PST I was introduced to tmux a couple of years ago, It was a love at first sight. But I never liked using it because of the delay in creation and navigation. For example, I have binded [link] [comments] |
Posted: 30 Dec 2019 08:30 AM PST I have a directory that is 100% full and I can cd to it but I cannot do anything else. If I try to ls it just hangs. How can I work with this directory and clean up some files? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 30 Dec 2019 08:22 AM PST Hello to the whole community! I am writing to you because I need advice. I have an old PC that I would like to reuse by installing a Linux version that supports it. In particular, I have an Intel core 2 (1.86GHz) and 1 GB of RAM. Currently a Windows XP SP3 is installed which makes it quite slow. Any idea on how to reuse it without using a light version of Linux? Thank you all! [link] [comments] |
Issues with buffering on Linux academy Posted: 30 Dec 2019 12:01 PM PST Hey guys, I'm having problems seeing the tutorial videos on Linux Academy. It will buffer indefinitely while I'm studying on my laptop at any given moment what can I do about that? [link] [comments] |

"error: invalid signature" when selecting "Windows 10" from GRUB menu Posted: 30 Dec 2019 11:32 AM PST Hello! Computer info: This is the hardware of my rig if needed Secure boot is disabled. I have the Ubuntu SSD first in the boot order and it loads fine. I do see a Windows Boot Manager option in my boot order list and can manually boot into Windows 10. Win10 is just for gaming so I don't mind needing to manually boot since I don't play that much, but I'd love to figure out what is going wrong with this dual boot setup. BIOS is up to date. Pretty much everything is up to date. SSD #1 (/dev/sda) has Ubuntu 19.10 and GRUB SSD #2 (/dev/sdb) has Windows 10 (and it seems it also has Windows Boot Manager) I've been running Ubuntu for a while now and wanted to use a secondary SSD for Windows 10. I followed the directions from this page. I added this to my EDIT: I also tried running Running There is no For some reason Here is the output from I appreciate any ideas on what else I should try. I tried finding only recent tutorials on how to set this up and have tried several different approaches. At this point I'd love some guidance. Let me know if there is other info I can provide!

CD burn quality differences by burner? Posted: 30 Dec 2019 11:16 AM PST I'm using Ubuntu 18.04LTS and wanted to burn a music CD using .FLAC format. I used Ubuntu's File Manager Nautilus to do it; it worked, and pretty quickly, too. It played from the optical drive on my old mac laptop, so it worked okay. In fact, the speed is what concerns me a little. It seemed to be much faster than the last time I used a dedicated disk burning software. Is there any reason to suspect it burned less perfectly than Basero, for instance? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 30 Dec 2019 10:17 AM PST It's like the settings don't change, even though the config file changes. I've done "sudo update-grub" countless times, nothing. Any ideas? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 30 Dec 2019 06:08 AM PST Hi guys After 20 atemt to dual bood win and linux (all failed) I literly formated my drive entirely So here is the question. What partitions do I need to create?

Issues setting up VNC on Ubuntu 19.10 Posted: 30 Dec 2019 09:31 AM PST Hi all- Linux novice with some experience. I am using Ubuntu 19.10 on a Raspberry Pi 4 4GB. I would like to setup VNC access to this system. Ubuntu 19.10 server is installed to the RPi. From there I followed this guide to setup VNC access to my system. That guide instructed me to install the xfce DE then tightvncserver. I did both of those successfully via SSH. (My system is headless and therefore I cannot access the gui without VNC) The next step in the guide is to run the
I'm not sure what it means other than starting the vncserver has failed. Any advice on how to setup a vncserver on my Ubuntu system here? I've had a few other ubuntu/mint/debain systems but for some reason always struggled in setting up vnc access and never have done it successfully. I don't know why I am having so much trouble setting up VNC, it seems like something relatively simple. [link] [comments] |

I botched KDE, login screen not appearing Posted: 30 Dec 2019 12:56 AM PST I'm on Debian, I wanted to make my gtx 950 the primary card for my laptop, so i tried using nvidia-xconfig after installing bumblebee, but it did not go well...the login screen stopped appearing So far, I tried uninstalling bumblebee, regenrating Xconfig using "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org" and "X -Configure" as well as sddm using dpkg-reconfigure but nothing worked From tty1, i tried to use "startkde" but i get: "$DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to xserver" sddm, kde services are running and i think the problem is related to the login screen only not the whole DE...what can i do? Edit: I am able to start the DE usting "startx" but, it doesn't run using a graphics card, instead it displays a notification that it's usung software rendering. "glxinfo|grep OpenGL" doesn't return gpu info, just a bunch of errors Edit2: I fixed the issue by purging all related nvidia packages, then reinstalling x related packages, and finally reinstalled nvidia related packages again. I found the fix in a ubuntu forum, hope this helps anyone that stumbles upon this thread. [link] [comments] |

Posted: 30 Dec 2019 10:12 AM PST I'm a MacOS, iPadOS, ChromeOS guy. Lately, I've been all iPadOS, using my iPad's for most of my computing needs. I have a couple of Chromebooks so I'll dip into using ChromeOS on occasion. I came across Linux Ubuntu xfce when one of my Chromebooks reached end of support about six months ago. I intalled Ubuntu xfce 18 on that Chromebook and have been tinkering with it ever since. I like that it's a minimalist, very secure open source system (that's what I'm told anyway). It get me online with updated browsers (Opera, Chrome, Firefox). I can save docs to my Dropbox. I can access my Google Drive and Docs. I'm playing with Libre Office and it seems pretty good. Is there a die hard, Linux only user that can sell me on using Linux for most of my computing? [link] [comments] |
