  1. Anyone have any ideas on why the mouse pointer in a GUI (in Ubuntu VM for example) would not be visible when using a chromebook for access? Its visible if I use Cirrus instead of QXL... but I'd prefer QXL.
  2. you have a few points of why its not that bad, but it would also be nice to have a boot drive that doesn't die from writes. Also, if it was just there for licensing, it would probably never die.... at least, even if it did, it wouldn't stop you from booting. USB flash drives are not enterprise class devices in any way, shape or form... this is not common practice for a very good reason. If it were, we should be able to, at least, mirror two USB's. Again, I have no problem with the OPTION of booting off the flash drive, but I've prefer to boot from one of my enterprise class drives that I can trust and can log to if I wish without it dying... and that I can run proper redundancy with. More options don't exist ONLY because not enough of us (paying customers) are complaining about how stupid this forced booting from a USB flash drive is.
  3. Sorta, but not really... who wants to be forced to boot of of a usb flash drive in this day and age? They need to fix their licenses to not be centric around a single drive, or, at least, allow us to mirror a couple of drives since they are not reliable. I wouldn't care as much if they allowed us to boot off of anything and simply have the drive there for the license, but making us use the drive kills it, and it's really stupid to force it on all users.
  4. for some reason I can't download the zip to look.... is it an Intel SSD? once Intels reach their max data written, they go read only. Must replace it to fix if that's the case.
  5. anyone else having trouble with the syncthing docker and updating? Mine keeps telling me there is an update, but there is not... I can update and then click on check for updates, it thinks there is another one... My version is 1.2.2 which i believe is up to date. My other dockers are not doing this, just syncthing.
  6. this works for the SSH keys by adding to the /boot/config/go file, where foo is the key mkdir ~/.ssh echo 'foo' > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys && chmod 644 ~/.ssh
  7. I use pfsense, I see it as a core networking device, so I would never virtualize it.
  8. I also use syncthing, it's handy for more than just photos too
  9. I would normally use minicom for such a need. I just checked nerd pack, doesn't seem to be in there... I'd say ask the maintainer to add it.... Makes a lot more sense than a VM.
  10. yeah, I can install some others, I guess the ones I tried before aren't using SSL... the ones using SSL are all erroring out, so probably not something to do with this plugin.
  11. yeah, it's right... still getting ssl errors. I can install other apps without issue.
  12. Just tried to install, but it's failing ssl verification..... plugin: installing: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/ca.turbo/master/plugins/ca.turbo.plg plugin: downloading https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/ca.turbo/master/plugins/ca.turbo.plg plugin: downloading: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/ca.turbo/master/plugins/ca.turbo.plg ... failed (SSL verification failure) plugin: wget: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Squidly271/ca.turbo/master/plugins/ca.turbo.plg download failure (SSL verification failure)
  13. what do you mean they disappeared? like showmount doesn't show them? nfs server crashed? can you just restart nfs? Are they all in one folder and your just doing a "rm *" or something?
  14. its not the VPN service, its Netflix (and friends) actively blocking them... Complain, loudly, to Netflix.
  15. so why not just schedule the script to remount ? Why reboot the whole system just to mount a filesystem? You could schedule it to run every minute (or hour or every 15 minutes or whatever), and if not currently mounted, then mount it.... makes more sense to me anyway.
  16. new drives should mean new cables, right? Always buy new cables, they are cheap and not worth the pain in the ass they cause when they are screwed up. you probably knocked a cable alittle loose, I'd finish the preclear and add it back in.
  17. Probably a sata drive, enable cache with hdparm. To make it persistent, edit your go file.
  18. Lol, awesome... Totally lucky guess as I have one Mac and everything else is linux, no windows. Glad it seems to be working. Just an fyi, I do understand that enabling that can have some issues for windows client, I've never paid any attention to them as they don't affect me, but something to watch out for or research.
  19. I have the same problem, I had to add to to my go file. my usb is sda, the next six are data and parity drives. I put this line in my go file, seems to work well: hdparm -W 1 /dev/sd[b,c,d,e,f,g]
  20. two of my 6 do the same thing, just enable it manually in the go file... no big deal. my boot usb is sda. The next 6 are my data drives. therefore I put this line in the go file hdparm -W 1 /dev/sd[b,c,d,e,f,g]
  21. is it just via samba? just curious if it shows correct or not via nfs/afp/sftp... I'm wondering if its just a samba issue I'm running 6.7.1 and mine appears to be correct via smb shares I think. I don't have Windows to test from, but connecting from Plasma in Fedora 30 it all looks to be correct date and times... and I haven't screwed around with the smb settings at all other than enabling the apple thing (Enhanced macOS interoperability) for my Wife's macbook. Maybe try turning that on?
  22. turn off next cloud for a while, spin down the disks, see what happens. Continue turning things off until something has an affect. Once you figure out what program or docker or whatever it is then you can troubleshoot it... right now your just guessing.
  23. I would, yes. Do your worst, abuse the system and see how big the transcode folder gets, then add 10-15% and go back to using a RAM drive that is at least that large assuming you have enough RAM. don't about the caching, its normal... unused memory is wasted memory.... it's a unix thing. No worries, the system gives it up for other use.
  24. true, but the automatically created one uses mount defaults, including a max size of 1/2 your RAM... which, could be very important. For example, I found that if I am DVRing and watching something I could pull down 22GB of space and I have 32GB of RAM. If I used defaults, then I'd run out of space and my DVRs would get auto cancelled. I mounted manually with a max size of 24GB to avoid this.
  25. yeah, just been lazy... was thinking of doing that as well as shooting out an email/sms message to my phone letting me know its corrupt. its been 10 or 11 days since my last corruption, so... motivation isn't all there either
