This guy is clearly not right in the head

  • These guys have not learned their lesson

  • I tried that already and that did not work either.

  • I was able to launch the Grayjay executable and Grayjay.sh manually but I can't get them to launch with the grayjay.desktop. I made a grayjay.desktop on my desktop but I keep getting a broken desktop error. I even did a chmod 777 on both files.

    Broken Desktop Error

    Grayjay Working Manually

  • I tried adding the desktop entry manually and it still doesn't work. I even did a chmod +x on the .sh and the executable.

    App added via menu editor won't launch

    So I was trying to add this application to my app grid called Grayjay using the menu editor menulibre. While the application was added to the app grid every time I try to launch it does absolultly nothing. I have tried making a .sh file to launch the app and then adding that but that did not work either. I am able to run both the executable and the .sh file via the command line. Is there a way I can fix this so that I can launch the Grayjay via the app grid instead of the terminal.

    What are some illegal things that should be legal?

  • I lowered the buffersize to 5 and sent the 21 byte test file and it was able to go through. However When I made the buffersize 3 (because my DONE packet was 4 bytes) is hanged and it appended the word DONE without the E.

    Need help with Networking homework. FTP program using UDP.

    So I am working on a homework project for my network architure class were I have to devlop an FTP program using UDP (not TCP). I was able to get my GET and PUT functions to send a 21byte test file and it worked. However when I tried to do a 1MB file the program hanged and did not send all of the data. I need to be able to send files of 1MB, 25MB, 50MB, and 100MB. Here is my code.

    GET (Client Side)

     undefined
        
     private static void getFile(String serverFilePath, String clientFilePath) throws IOException 
        {
            clientFilePath = clientFilePath.replaceAll("^\"|\"$", ""); //Strip quotes if any.
            if(!clientFilePath.startsWith("/"))
                clientFilePath = currentDir + "/" + clientFilePath;
            
            sendMessage("GET " + serverFilePath);
            
            //Write file to client
            try (FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(clientFilePath)) 
            {
                while (true) 
                {
                    byte[] buffer = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE];

    Seriously this is a joke. Do NOT try this

  • Thanks for linking me to the to this page. I did some more diging and I managed to figure out the actual problem. I was using a program called CompactGUI2 which allows you to use the NTFS file comprssion to save space. The minute I uncompressed the files from the Windows side I saw the Lock icons go away when I booted back into Linux.

  • I just download the appimage version of duckstation on the Linux side to see if it could run the game but it was unable to find my games in the ROMs Directory. Then I tried going to System > Start File and When I tried to launch the game that way I got this error.

    What is even more weird is that I was able to launch the copy on my ext4 partition despite the fact the the BIOS I selected is in the ntfs partition.

    Edit: I just tried opening the BIN and CUE files from the ntfs partition and got on error saying that the file does not exist despite the file being visible from the file manager. I also noticed that the one on the ntfs partition had some lock icons while the ext4 one did not. I also saw a windows directory in the cue file on the windows C: drive which I found very weird because I usually store all my games on the D: drive of my system. The copy on my ext4 also how this Windows Directory.

  • I just installed the program but it says that it cannot find any devices.

  • Do you mean like a different file manager? I just tried using Thunar instead of Nautilis and got the same error.

    libmtp error when copying from ntfs to phone on Linux

    Ok I was copying a bunch of games from one of my Windows drives over to my phone while booted into Linux. And I got this error that says "libmtp error: Could not open source file". Thankfully I was able to copy the files when I was booted into Windows but it would be nice if I could Transfer files from my Windows drives without having to reboot into Windows. Is there a way I can fix this problem.

    I think it might have to do with the ntfs file system because I copied one of the files from the phone back to my Desktop which is ext4 and then back to the phone without any issues. I already tried installing ntfs-3g which was already installed on my distro.

  • I went to that directory and did a cat on the history.log and got this. I also tried looking for the meta package you were talking about and installed mint-meta-cinnamon.

    Edit: Holy Shit. I just tried installing gnome and got my desktop back. Thank you so much.

  • Ok is what happened. I was on the UNF subreddit trying to figure out how to connect my laptop to the schools wifi on linux because my university uses the thing call OnGuard which is only required for Mac and Windows. A redditor link me to this post and it turned out that the reason why I was unable to connected to the schools wifi was because the network had my MAC address was tied to Windows when I originally connected my computer to the Wi-Fi. So I tried to follow the instructions on how to spoof my mac address which I was able to do it manually but then when I tried set it up to do it automatically by installing udev and editing some files using this link in the post I rebooted my computer login into gnome on x11 and did an ifconfig and noticed that my wireless adapter changed from wlp0s20f3(which is my usually the wireless inferface on my system) to wlan0 and was unable to connect to the internet so I then tried removing udev and then out of nowwhere the system showed a CLI. I tried to reboot but it took me Back to the CLI again so I then tried to reinstall udev and reboot which did nothing. Then I tried to remove the files that I had created and that did not work either and that was when I tried to restored from timeshift.

    Is there a way I can reinstall Linux Mint without messing up my Windows Partition?

    Long story short I was messing around in the terminal and messed up my Linux Mint Installation and now when I boot into Linux I only get a CLI and don't even see the Linux mint logo. I tried to restore to a previous state using Timeshift but it did not work so I ended up taking a live usb and backing up all my important documents to an external drive. I want to just do a fresh installation but unfortunally for me the boot drive is also the same drive I use to boot into Windows (which I am still able to boot into from GRUB). Is there a way I can reinstall the OS without affecting my ability to boot into Windows?

  • I dual booted Linux Mint with Windows 10 on my gaming laptop so that I wouldn't have to upgrade to Windows 11 or buy a new computer.

  • Thanks for the reply. I was able to clone it last night using that software. Thank you.

  • I just booted into the old drive and plug the new drive into using an nvme to usb c and it did not show up on disk management. However when I used an adapter to plug it in to the usb 2.0 and 3.0 inferfaces it showed up and I saw this:

    note: Disk 2 is the new drive and Disk 1 is the original.

  • EFI. The BIOS is locked and I cannot disable secure boot.

  • Thank you so much. I was able to successfully clone the drive and now it is showing up as 1tb.
