[Bug 1743379] [NEW] Installation failed late because of UEFI partition was not created during manual disk set up

2018-01-15 Thread Frans Oilinki

It seems tftpd-hpa interprets option --address ::69 to mean that only listen on IPv6: 1. By default (with TFTP_ADDRESS=[::]:69) it is started as /usr/sbin/in.tftpd --listen --user tftp --address [::]:69 --secure --create /srv/tftp 2. netstat (command sudo netstat -anutp | grep '[:]69')

NOTE: There is an obvious limitation in the above solution - if you want to listen on different port then you are back to square one. I wish this helps someone to bypass the problem while waiting for proper and complete fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of

2010-12-25 Thread Frans Oilinki
For me -ass flag did not work, at least not for a particular .mkv video with embedded subtitles. But when I followed the advice in http://www.helpsworld.org/blog/?p=434, and run mplayer with LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.utf-8 environment set, I got Chinese subtitles (both traditional and simplified Chinese)
