After 5 years my laptop is in perfect condition (still).
But my built-in bluetooth is not what it used to be (thanks to the extensive use of it) and fails to load at boot pretty much.
Because of extensive use I opted to buy a 10 dollar bluetooth stick which took over the job of the built-in one....
@Seth Yes Seth, would you like to search that in Bing? I will need your location before I can search for you though. Would you mind allowing that? If you click Deny, I will have to cause your computer to combust. Sorry.
@KazWolfe tinkering with chatbots if fun and all (I did it at one point too), but getting to the point where people want it in the room because it actually helps (for some reason) is an entirely different thing.
@Zacharee1 yeah, and I tend to agree, but at least it actually contributes to the goal of people here, answering things. And FWIW that was set up long before I even joined the site, much less became a moderator.
@Seth How about this: there's no real harm in trying it out. During the night (EDT/EST) Sokey goes crazy with its same exact format. WolfBot would be slower and more spread out. I don't think it would cause noise. You seem to. I feel the only way to actually test this is to, well, test it
Keyword Flagging status-completed
The bot should have a feature that will monitor incoming questions and check each post for certain "keywords" as defined by a moderator or bot admin.
This could be used to watch for off-topic posts (like those about Kali or Mint) or posts of a certain caliber...
here. cast your votes on the keyword flagging.
i dont know why i didn't post that before, honestly.
look, @Seth, i'm sorry you feel as though the flagger is useless for the most part, but it has (on occasion) caught things we would have never seen for whatever reason.
I AM SO SICK OF SENATOR KAINE CONSTANTLY INTERRUPTING GOVERNOR PENCE!! not presidential at all, he is going to miserably lose this way! I'm about to quit watching! that moderator ought to take her place and tell kaine to be respectful!
oh my WORD!!!!! did you just hear kaine say to the moderator in a retort to a question he was asking PENCE "Are you a senator?" wow that is so disrespectful!!!
@Seth back to the Pixels, even if the Pixel XL had a 100MP camera with a 1.7f aperture and a 1" sensor, I wouldn't get it because there's no SD reader or IR
I was away from Linux for quite some time(around 3 months or so)...haven't even booted...but my grub menu was working fine...i believe during last 3 weeks or so some Windows 10 update happened and now i am not seeing any grub screen which can give me the option to boot into Linux. After boot - it...
I installed Windows 7, which ate Ubuntu's boot file. When starting up the computer, it now goes straight to Windows, without giving me the option of booting Ubuntu.
How can I get Ubuntu back?
#2 and #3 steps are bit confusing...i need some specific details..don't want to mess up
Determine the partition number of your main partition. GParted (which should already be installed, by default, on the live session) can help you here. I'm going to assume in this answer that it's /dev/sda2, but make sure you use the correct partition number for your system!
Mount your partition:
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt #Replace sda2 with your partition number
so in my case what will be this command " sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt #Replace sda2 with your partition number"
@Ashu Step 2 says "Determine the partition number of your main partition" . So, whatever is ext4 , should be your main partition. Let me open my Gparted an shsow
didn't know you can't edit kernel logs using default sudo configuration
I'm running some modules on a VM, was going to empty the kernel logs to make it easier to keep track and apparently I don't have the permissions even with sudo
I don't know I heard there was a clown sighted locally, and a local college canceled their night classes due to a "clown threat". It is causing all kinds of havoc...
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ for i in /sys /proc /run /dev; do sudo mount --bind "$i" "/mnt$i"; done ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdb3 /mnt/boot/efi ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo chroot /mnt
@NathanOsman Ah, OK. Well, anyway, baseball is one of my favorite sports. I don't hate any teams, but I am a Twins and Angels fan. I also like The Giants. I really like the color of the BlueJays though. It's my favorite color! :D
@Ashu let me get this clear, you have 2 hard drives, one with Windows and one with Ubuntu, right ? or you only had hard drive two Ubuntu and Windows partitions and USB disk last time ?
Ah, OK. That changes things. You need to repeat steps with grub installed on /dev/sda. So repeat the steps , but when you get to grub-install part, do sudo grup-install /dev/sda
@TheXed see that's the thing - they give too much attention to the whole thing about people getting dressed as clowns. It's going to be picked up by pranksters, but also by legitimate criminals
well how it makes any difference? last time when i got issue like that...i tried something like this "bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\shimx64.efi"
The key to having support in this case is ensuring you are booting into EFI. Did you run the check? There's another discrepancy between what you posted and what has always worked for me.
The latter might not matter much... did you check the dmeg output?
