(Noob problem) Shared network folder from Ubuntu to Windows 10

Hi, I want to create a folder on the desktop of my Ubuntu PC that I can just drag video files in so that I can access them and watch them through my Windows 10 laptop without having to actually transfer them. I tried following some online tutorials but I just can't do it. Can some of you Linux masters help a poor noob with this task?

Ubuntu error: couldn’t get size issue.

Hello everyone. I’ve been trying to use Ubuntu for a while now but never succeed. I don’t know much about Linux but I wanted to try it out but I can never get it to boot properly and I don’t know why. I have an MSI 970 mother board and I tried looking for a disable secure boot but could never find it. So I’m stuck and I don’t know what to do. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Thank you

[Not a rant] Had trouble installing some distros (missing mmx64.efi) - fix is so simple still devs don't put a minute to do it so new people don't have to deal with this.

For some reason, I had hard time even booting the latest releases from Mint and eOS. I took some digging and as usual so many posts telling you to do different things, when the fix took 10 seconds.

> Failed to open \EFI\BOOT\mmx64.efi - Not Found

> Failed to load image \EFI\BOOT\mmx64.efi: Not Found

> Failed to start MokManager: Not Found

> Something has gone seriously wrong: import_mok_state() failed : Not Found

This is the error I was getting right after my Acer logo and the laptop was shutting down.

Fix: In the USB: Copy the grubx64.efi from /boot/efi folder somewhere, rename it to mmx64.efi and put it back in the folder.

And it boots with no problems.

And this is the minute that will save so much trouble to new users coming to Linux.

For example, Ubuntu 19.10 has both included.

Just take a minute, do it right.

Two GPUs in one machine

I just recently switched to using Linux full-time on my desktop, coming from Windows. I previously had an Nvidia 1060 6GB GPU, but I've been having some screen tearing issues, so I purchased an AMD Radeon Pro WX 3200 in hope that it had better support for Wayland (I'm running Fedora + KDE). I don't plan to do any GPU intensive tasks, except for perhaps some video encoding.

I don't really have a place to store my 1060 outside of my computer, so I would like to leave it installed in the somputer - - even if it is just a fancy paperweight. Will I have any problems if I install both the AMD card and leave in the 1060, but only plug my monitors into the AMD card? Do I need to install drivers for the AMD card, or disable the Nvidia card?

Thanks

Information about "'Script with Backup data in a certain time with BASH Script"

I am a student with basic knowledge of Linux and I was given an assignment to find information about "Script with Backup data in a certain time with BASH Script". Any tips on looking for information about this subject. Any actual links would be really appreciated.

Linux distro geared towards media centers?

I have an old Mac Mini that is just connected to a TV right now that I would like to just use for video streaming, YouTube, etc. Is there a distro of Linux that has a user interface geared towards that, I.e. simple and easy to navigate?

Weight has finally lifted

I put this in the Jupiter Broadcasting Telegram so I'm sorry if you are seeing this for a second time.

Can I just say how awesome it is that my HTC Vive works out of the box with steamVR? Bought one used e from my friend for $150 expecting to use my windows drive that I had for my Oculus. (boo Facebook) I literally just plugged it in with steam open and was prompted to download SteamVR and then it started the setup process. Now I can officially and confidently delete that drive I had tucked on top of my disc drive for windows. Finally happy to use Linux completely by itself. It's weird to say this, but I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

Data recovery assistance for a complete noob.

Hi all,

I'm sorry to start off from such a basic state but googling isn't helping me particularly well.

Problem: accidentally deleted an entire home video folder from a cheap NAS that didn't have a recycle bin option enabled.

Actions so far: immediately powered off NAS and removed drive, and have tried using some free windows software to recover data. Program was known to be good for windows drives but i'm having trouble with the drive being EXT2/4, Ext drivers for windows haven't helped.

​

I have a spare PC temporarily that i'd like to install linux on and try to recover the deleted data - would anyone be able to talk me through this or point me in the right direction? I have no experience with Linux other than setting up a basic NAS using OpenMediaVault on a RasPi 4.

Many thanks in advance!
