It's there as far back as we can scroll, but I just wonder the ram handicap. Typically I'll run a browser that keeps reporting error feedback but still runs.

E.g., Chromium:
Code: root# /usr/bin/chromium-browser: line 133: lsb_release: command not found
/usr/bin/chromium-browser: line 134: lsb_release: command not found

I can't connect to npr.org today (Saturday, 2022 May 14). I've tried lynx, snarf, wget, firefox, and opera. It times out. I can log in to a different system and connect. downforeveryoneorjustme tells me it's up.

Hello all, new member here. Just joined today after lurking for awhile. I have been a Linux user for about 12 years but in no way do I consider myself as a "pro" with it as I learn something new about it almost every time I am using it. Distros that I have multi booted on my laptops are: Bodhi, LinuxMint Mate, PCLinuxOS OpenBox with Mate and Enlightenment added, and MXLinux Fluxbox with Mate added to it. Any way, thanks for letting me join up!

Hi guys I am looking for the difference between the command "sudo" and "sudo su".

I have an odd question, my wife is going through a ton of family photos and old videos as well. She had the idea of creating a webpage that allows family members to log in and upload/download family photos and videos.

all the family members use windows so it has to be accessible from any os easily.

i have 3Tb drive at home so space is not an issue at the moment. What are some ideas i could do and try?

thanks

Good afternoon, everyone!

I'm trying to get a Linux host to act as a router. It has two NICs, one is in the 192.168.4.0/24 subnet (192.168.4.1), the other is in the 192.168.5.0/24 subnet. I want hosts to be able to use 4.1 as their gateway...traffic goes in 4.1, then goes out 5.x...

I've tried getting IP forwarding to work and it's not wanting to cooperate. I think I'm missing something...I'm thinking I need a static route, but I'm not sure. The hosts (one Linux, one Windows) in question are VMs in VirtualBox that I'm using for some testing but can't quite get it all to work the way I want.

The Linux host has WAN connectivity. The Windows host can ping the Linux host (gateway), but the Windows host does NOT have WAN connectivity. The Linux host can NOT ping the Windows host but DOES have WAN connectivity...this is why I'm thinking it's a routing thing that I'm missing...

Thoughts? Perhaps there's an easier way to do this?

Any info greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

I goofed and reformatted a large btrfs partition which contained all my videos. And I did not reformat it as btrfs again but as ext2 (mistook it for the boot partition). Nothing was saved or written to once reformatted (did not even write the boot folder to it).
I have a backup that is only about 2 months old and the only thing added since then was some movies I ripped from BluRay. I own the physical media and can re-rip them easily enough.
So I'm interested in trying to recover it only as a learning experience for future reference and only if I do not have to waste vast amounts of time. (OK if the recovery utilities run for days, just don't wanna allocate lots of personal man-hours to learn.)

Is it feasible? Really difficult? Should I start with gparted/gpart, photorec, btrfs-tools, or ???
