Hi Andrew. I suspect the paper tray and paper type can also be set via software commands, and override your manual settings. Have you tried looking at the printer settings in CUPS? "http:\\127.0.0.1:631" in a browser on the same PC. Select the "Printers" tab, click on the entry for your

RE: Error message

Hi Andrew. A point worth noting with Midnight Commander. Some GUI terminals preempt the F10 key, which is used in mc as the exit function. So mc offers the option to use the key followed by a digit as an alternative. So 0 acts as the F10 key. This allows you to use mc on minimal

Re: Power outage today, system fscked

Hi Andrew. You still have to consider that power outages don't always come with a supplier warning. Lightning, distribution transformers going kerblooie, motor vehicle vs power pole, damaged ceramic insulators etc. So a UPS is still a very good idea. Morrie. On 27/10/2019 7:54 am,

RE: Power outage today, system fscked

Hi Andrew. Note: I'm making an assumption that your root partition is an ext4 format. If it's not, then you will need to use the tool for your partition type (assuming it has one). The reason you can't mount the btrfs partitions is that they need to mount to somewhere on the root partition. As

Hi Andrew. Couldn't you turn the problem on it's head? MicroSD to SD adapters come as a free accessory for most MicroSD cards, so just use the adapter to make the MicroSD card fit your camera. Just a thought. Regards, Morrie. -Original Message- From: luv-main

Hi Andrew. Craig beat me to it, and in far better detail than I was typing. It's also going to be simpler to make the changes to UUID or LABEL format without the two additional drives unplugged, as it will give you your full-fat operating system and its tools to make the changes. The one extra

Hi David. Without knowing what "scap" does, I can't be sure what it's supposed to do. Keep in mind that cron doesn't have the majority of the environment variables that an interactive shell session will normally have, it could be that scap can't run successfully without one or more of them. If,
