[12:00] i created a new partition and named it backup, but I cant do anything with it, so used the command sudo chmod -R ugo+rw /backup [12:00] but i get a "no such directory" message [12:04] Prototype, think you need to use th3e hardware designation like /dev/sdX, X being the letter assigned to the partition. Also an entry in /etc/fstab might work [12:05] ah ok, ill give the command another try [12:07] hmmm..nope that made no difference [12:09] oh hang on, i just reopend Gparted and noticed under the mount point it has been named _backup [12:11] ok, sorted [12:11] Phixx Muñiz was added by: Phixx Muñiz [12:11] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWdQvdp48rM [12:11] did you run sudo umount /dev/sdx first then chmod +x .... [12:11] no idea why it put a _ in there [12:11] nope, but i re ran the command again and it seems to have worked [12:12] ok [12:14] has been a while since I have been on this site, I have managed to convert a couple of friends over to variants of Linux since though === msalvatore_ is now known as msalvatore [15:16] Kubuntu saved enough embarrassment for me today as I was reeling without internet in a show, with a bunch of stuff pre-installed and presynced👌 === legacy080 is now known as legacy079 [18:14] (Photo, 645x356) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/FzYf9SF0/file_23361.jpg Anybody getting this when booting?

[19:10] Hey are there any who can tell me, how to do this command "service metasploit start" when i run it, i get this message: Failed to start metasploit.service: Unit metasploit.service not found. [19:23] Man that michael__ guy didn't wait even 10 minutes for an answer . . . although maybe he figured out on his own that he'd need to actually install metasploit first or whatever invariably very basic thing he was missing, heh. [19:24] @michael__, He need go educate hisself on Linux/Unix (and probably basic computer) skills before tryin'a become a "pentester" or whatever he's up to. [19:40] I want to set chromium as my default browser, when i click it's msg to 'set as default' it does nothing. additionally in the KDE GUI, i go to default applications from the start menu and set chromium as my default and apply [19:40] yet firefox is still my default [19:41] 'Default applications' says chromium is default [19:41] but when i need to open links they open in firefox, and when i open chromium it tells me it's not default [19:41] seems like a bug [19:43] azx, do you have some snap [19:43] I had some wiers stuff with firefox as snap [19:46] i don't believe firefox is a snap package [19:46] i have one snap package installed from default kubuntu install [19:46] chromium was installed through sudo apt-get install chromium [19:46] even when i open a link in chromium it opens in firefox [19:47] hmm seems to open in chromium i might be wrong [19:47] but from any other app besides chromium it will launch firefox [19:49] i swear it wasn't working and now it's working, strange. after a reboot [19:49] also my irc client wouldn't open links in default browser, but that seems to have fixed itself as well [19:50] Thanks!
