From laptop to server, try:

ssh -o HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-rsa -o PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms=+ssh-rsa 
username@server

The server and laptop are Fedora 38 and the Jetson Nano is Ubuntu 18.94.6
LTS.  I cannot do ssh-copy-id because all authentication methods are
declined for the laptop to server connection.

Logging in using SSH:

Laptop to Jetson Nano   OK
Laptop to server  Not OK

Server to Jetson NanoOK
Server to laptop  OK

Jetson Nano to Laptop   OK
Jeston Nano to serverOK

What file or configuration do I need to look at/or change.

Re: [PLUG] Current state of Linux voice recognition

2017-06-28 Thread Alex Bedard
Surprisingly, the state of speech recognition, at least when it comes to 
speech to text / dictation solutions, was actually better 10 years ago 
as far as Linux is concerned today. At least when it comes to affordable 
consumer/end user solutions

The predecessor of Dragon's Naturally Speaking actually had a Linux 
version which worked pretty well. However, after IBM sold that business 
unit to Nuance/Dragon, they stopped offering the Linux version of their 
product.

Apparently, it is possible to use Naturally Speaking through Wine, 
although I haven't tested it... Using things emulated through Wine can 
be pretty hit or miss.

There are some open source voice recognition engines for Linux, but 
generally speaking they are terrible for dictation/speech to text.

Also, in regards to sound cards, either in Windows or Linux, I would 
recommend not using your soundcard with a 3.5mm jack microphone. Good 
USB microphones generally have a DSP chip that produces a clearer sound 
and I've had better success with dictating through these than with 
analog/3.5mm microphones. Some of these can be found for as low as ~30$.

I would recommend a variant of that, but using file rather than strings 
(since a python script might have the word python more than once per 
file...):

time for i in /usr/bin/*
 do file $i | grep python && echo $i >> output.txt
done;

Re: [PLUG] Gparted questions

2017-04-04 Thread Alex Bedard
Hi John,

 Does your "Boot" partition contain just /boot, or it's the root of 
your Linux system? If it's just /boot, you can unmount the partition, 
stretch it with Gparted, and then remount it.

 If it's your root file system, it would be safer to reboot it with 
a Live distro and use Gparted to stretch it. There are ways to stretch 
certain root file systems while the system is running using fdisk to 
change the partition boundaries, and then grow the file system to the 
new boundary (I do this with XFS), but I wouldn't recommend it as you 
can easily break your system.
