All Linux Things

I'm 74yo he <g>. Yes, I like MX, too, xfce is still great. Debian is why I suggested LMDE6 (Linux Mint Debian Edition), Cinnamon only, though .

OK. I don't know Endless. If it's immutable, does that mean you can't change configuration files? Your Endless machine is the client for this, your Apple machine is the server. Is there a directory /home/wove/.local/etc/samba with an smb.conf inside it? Or /home/wove/.local/etc with smb.conf? Reread...

Did you find smb.conf in /etc/ on the client (linux) or the server (apple)? smb.conf shouldn't be in /etc but in /etc/samba/ on the client (linux box) The 'client min protocol = NT1' should be on the client Perhaps 'server min protocol = NT1' in the smb.conf on the apple server Yes! The Apple Time C...

As it's an old Apple device, it's probably using SMB1 which is a no-no for a modern Windows or Linux install. Can you set 'client min protocol = NT1' in your local (linux) smb.conf file? I presume you do have the username/password for the time capsule smb account.

If Windows sees an SMB share, can Linux see the share too? smbclient -L timecapIPaddress . If so, at least the IP address is correct. You can connect to server with the SMB (Windows) protocol. Try mount.cifs or mount.smb3 (see man page). Both these next are unlikely on Apple kit. What do you see wit...

The ones who did, are all deceased

Now there's good planning.

As I said earlier, both those stations are very UK orientated - they're manned, and womanned, by "older" DJs from the days when music was music - late 50s, 60s, 70s. And, obviously, timings are UK orientated, too. DJ could have been Jenny Hanley. Check the schedules. Nicky Horne, Roger Day...

I'm not an "authority", but UK has not gone entirely metric. Back in '61 the Met Office changed from F to C. Currency went decimal in '71. We buy petrol/oil (gas/oil?) in litres (not liters), also milk, bottled beer. Draught beer is still in pints, though. Wood (e.g.) is also crazy. Sold i...

Hi Wove, The command line I gave earlier is run in the background on a Raspberry Pi (X not started). Having said that, I plugged the URL into desktop VLC on Windows and it played properly. Did you open it as a Network stream (Ctrl-N)? I've heard comments from listeners from Canada, Australia, New Ze...

Too much distortion, variable volume (here in the UK) with my standard presets (see previous). My to-go radio station is https://listen-boomradio.sharp-stream.com/65_boom_radio_live_128 (or sometimes https://listen-boomradio.sharp-stream.com/65_boom_rock_160_aac_lc ). UK orientated though.
