I've been exploring options to share a WiFi internet connection using the same WiFi adapter on my laptop. According to askubuntu.com/questions/318973/… I need a hardware supporting this. But, according to howtogeek.com/213761/… there is already an application which can create a virtual adapter to connect to multiple networks.

But it works only on Windows. Does anyone have any idea on how to recreate this on Linux?

I mean if it's possible on Windows why not Linux?

Also, would it make sense if I posted this as a separate question?

Anyone?

It seems the application itself is open source too. virtualrouter.codeplex.com

shyam

09:57

Think I'll post a question

Journeyman Geek

@shyam I believe the facilities for that is built into some wifi adaptors and windows

shyam

@JourneymanGeek I had a look at the source, it does not make much sense at this point. I'm not familiar with the code structure there and the README does not help. I'll look into it deeper.

Also, I seriously doubt the facility is built into the adapter. My colleague has been running the application on what is a presumably substantially older and cheaper hardware than what I have running Windows 8. I'm not entirely sure his adapter supports it.

Chances are low.

@Masi sue now i should be online for a while

o/ all :)

Masi

12:39

@Videonauth I am back. We can start.

I am just playing with RB3b here askubuntu.com/q/775150/25388 at the moment

Videonauth

so is it only firefox ?

because I cant reproduce the problems you have here on my stick

Masi

Yes, it is the firefox and the Internet browser.

But we can try to tackle Firefox first.

Videonauth

for the firefox like i said removing the mozilla directories in /home/user/ should suffice

one is called .mozilla and the other .config/mozilla

and one should be in .cache

if i remember right

Masi

It was not sufficient. Restarting the system gives back the problem.

Videonauth

mhmmmm

Masi

12:42

* is not sufficient

Videonauth

did you check the permissions on users home directory ?

Masi

How?

What do you think they should be?

They should be ok, but not sure what you want with them.

Videonauth

well they should all be owned by the user so far

Masi

yes

Videonauth

or better even we recreate it but give me a second

mv -v /home/<user-name> /home/<user-name-backup>

you might want to sudo that if it gives you a permission denied

same with the following commands

Masi

12:48

done

Videonauth

mkdir -v /home/<user-name>

Masi

done

Videonauth

chown <user>:<user> /home/<user-name>

Masi

done

Videonauth

chmod 755 /home/<user-name>

reboot

this way you still have all data in backup and you createa ground up new user dir

Masi

12:53

@Videonauth It works with the first startup. I wonder what caused/causes the problem.

Videonauth

borked up file permissions ownership

now you can check which files are differen with the ones in your backup dir

so you find the exact cause

Masi

Any diff tool for that?

Videonauth

for contents yes not sure if there is a diff tool for permissions

remember im a linux user since only 3 months ~

not seen anything yet xD

i would probably open two terminals and then ls -lah side by side

btw did you see that i sorted out the grub issue in my answer ?

you can remove or replace that step 14 in your text

echo 'GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER="true"' >> /etc/default/grub
update-grub

Masi

13:09

@Videonauth How can I do the correction now to the existing USB?

Videonauth

youre booted with that stick ?

Masi

yes

on it

Videonauth

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

put

GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER="true"

at the end and

sudo update-grub

@jokerdino nice to read this ! :)

@jokerdino why not? They are bugs. Bugs. We close bug questions

and also, there are at least 3 users copying the same answer from one question to the others.

Masi

@Videonauth See the end here askubuntu.com/q/768970/25388 Do you understand what could cause the bug in starting Firefox?

Braiam

or are you suggesting that we change AU scope?

jokerdino

better off to find a question and make it master and dupe rest of them to it.

I suggest we put people and their problems first and then worry about the site later.

Braiam

14:08

no. Duplicates are for question that are on topic. All of them are off topic

@jokerdino so, you are willing to convert AU in the bug tracker? That is a very unwise desision

Videonauth

@Masi the .cache/ directory it was, it was owned by root which should be owned my user

the programms couldnt write to .cache so they terminated or caused undefined behavior

Masi

@Videonauth So what would be the correct solution here?

jokerdino

I am a bit busy cleaning up the site. I will get back to you later.

Braiam

There's no workaround, just to apply the update that was released. The bug is fixed, the issue should go away when every mirror is synced.

Masi

@Videonauth can still switch back to backup. So sudo chown masi:masi $HOME/c.ache, rigth?

Videonauth

14:11

@Masi the one i described befre is the most hassle free one, and then cp back data you may need

Masi

.cache

Why not just changing the owner?

Videonauth

more running chown -R masi:masi /home/backup

Masi

How would you do now `rsync between /home/masi and /home/masi_backup?

Videonauth

but im not really sure if this would end you up with proper ownership of everything inside the home dir

by hand only copying the data you want to keep and throw away the rest

thats the cleanes solution

each programm will write itsconfigs new on starting them

so the ownerships are perfectly

cl-netbox

hbdgaf

Eh. Well, maybe it gets better. That load of apt questions that are all bug reports of the bug that has a patch landing very very soon or already was sort of bombing chat from @SeverusTux yesterday.

Stack Exchange sites should be coming back online now. We're still digging into why CloudFlare was having issues serving us.

Sweet, emoji in the chat! 😸

cl-netbox

@Seth hahaha ... :D

jokerdino

@TheBrownOne yeah, it's been supported for a while now.

user139252

@jokerdino before, though, my Google keyboard wouldn't let me access the emoji keyboard in browser. With the new update, I can.

cl-netbox

@jokerdino : I have a suggestion - what about merging -> askubuntu.com/questions/774953/… to this one -> askubuntu.com/questions/775049/16-04-apt-update-never-ends ? Would fit better and has the better title ... IMHO ... :)

user139252

So, now I can tell emoji stories and have you all guess what I'm trying to say.

Should be on Meta: askubuntu.com/questions/775230/…

jokerdino

@cl-netbox would you like this to be the master?

Pandya

@muru should I add this answer to that question? [Duplicate-discussion]

cl-netbox

@jokerdino it would be better than what we have now - but I think the master should be this question -> askubuntu.com/questions/775049/16-04-apt-update-never-ends ... on first sight you see the main problem and it has a good accepted answer ... so when new users search this keeps them away from posting a new dupe question. :)

Pandya

Hey I found @LuisAlvarado has over-taken 100k!

Congratulations @LuisAlvarado ♦

jokerdino

@cl-netbox factors considered: age of the question, number of votes, view count, title, search terms, suitable answers.

@Rinzwind "Works OOTB as of Ubuntu 12.04." ; what is OOTB?

jokerdino

@Pandya out of the box

Rinzwind

@Pandya Out of the box

jokerdino

meaning, it will work if you take laptop out of the package box.

Rinzwind

or .. all the hardware works without me tinkering

cl-netbox

@jokerdino okay ... you decide ... :) maybe we can improve the title ?

jokerdino

15:48

@cl-netbox yes of course

cl-netbox

@jokerdino then merge as much as possible and I make my mind up for a proper title ... :)

The issue earlier was caused by a routing problem, which has been resolved, so all sites should be back to normal.
