  1. I cant type in commands mate if I don't have a blinking cursor. Do you have to reboot if I manage to type commands in?
  2. Not yet try tomorrow, if uninstall plug in the gui will come back surly, if so what do I do to get h/w transcoding back when I remove plug in
  3. I don't have a blinking cursor just a static one
  4. I have same problem with igpu, I have the Intel top plug installed but have no gui, what's my next option?
  5. Anyone else getting black screen when booting in gui mode, everything else fine. Using igpu on intel
  6. @MightyT is script working fine ? also what would i need to chnage for 5tb disks
  7. I'm struggling to get the bloody card working never mind a pfsense lost my server last night playing about with it. Thought it was as a simple as changing the order in the interface rules and reboot but No 😂
  8. When plug. Cable in and give it an up address and disconnect mb nic I can't login to server gui
  9. Will the card just assume eth0 with previous static ip and dns settings?
  10. If I disable the nic would I have to preconfigure the card with my settings that my mb nic uses 1st?
  11. Hi can anyone help I currently have motherboard nic 1gb but have installed a new 2.5gb pci card. Mb nic is eth0 and card is eth1 in the network settings. Is it as simple as changing them in interface rules so that 2.5card is then eth0 and vice versa? Will the card adopt the previous static ip address previously set with Mb nic? Does both have to be on a different ip range before I swap?
  12. Just stick with 6.9 for the moment with the other script as working for me.
  13. How do you apply your method and can this be done on a schedule? So the drives do finally spin down.
  14. Where looking at getting the discs to spin up at a certain time of day and staying spun up.
  15. OK will try later when home night-shift in (UK). The folder I was trying to backup does contain quite a few small files. Will try what you suggest. Thanks
  16. Hi @Cpt. Chaz yeah my system is using 16gb of Ram, also the ext HD is formatted with NTFS
  17. Will leave it on 6.9 for now till a workaround is fixed
  18. Hi quick question i wrote a script to enable me to start backing up my most valuable data but ran into a few problems, #!/bin/sh rsync -av --delete /mnt/user/Pictures /mnt/disks/Backups_Ext Backup when well but when finished has used 75% of my memory and it pegged my cpu at 100% for about 3mins and when i tried to start my VM it wouldnt as not enough memory , also made my system very unstable to the point unusable so had reboot. Thankfully everything back to normal but was wondering if can i manually flush/empty the memory?
  19. Great many thanks have script repeating every 25 mins as spin down is at 30m so they are awake from 7pm to midnight on the weekend when plex is used most.
  20. Brill will try it this week once i get a minute, i take it they spin down if out with cron schedule ??
  21. So this will spin up all the drives or do i have to replace X with my drives allocation letter ? if so do i need to write the script for as much drives as i have ??
  22. If you get a working scripted please let me know as this stuffs above my pay grade 😁 very much appreciated. Cheers lads
  23. So the drive wont spin down after the default time has elapsed ??
