Re: NordVPN today update Version 3.12.0 not work in SysVinit [Solved]

I added the delay to the init script following all the instructions in post #19, then rebooted. I also still get the whoops sock error when using "nordvpn c"

I can still restart service to make it work, which is my new normal way to get it to work.

Just sharing what works and what doesn't work for ...

Re: autostart bluetooth keyboard for login use? [solved] [Solved]

You may be able to write ...

Re: autostart bluetooth keyboard for login use? [Solved]

Thank you for the fast response. I was able to do more testing this AM, and did make some progress.
I switched to auto login.
After the desktop fully loads... I switch the foldable keyboard power switch to ON, and it connects as it should.

I am still not comfortable with the "auto login" as I have ...

autostart bluetooth keyboard for login use? [solved] [Solved]

Bluetooth Keyboard doesn't work at login screen. I have to use Bluetooth Devices to connect each time.

I am not even sure this is possible? I have no experience with Bluetooth Keyboards.
I have to use a different keyboard to connect to the foldable keyboard if I want to use the bluetooth wireless ...

Re: [Package request] NordVPN Network Manager GUI

I will wait until it is in the MX Test Repo since I don't see myself as a "Tester"... seeing how I still struggle as a "User". ;)

Re: [Package request] NordVPN Network Manager GUI

No pressure intended, but how will I know when this is ready to try out? Where will I find it, "MX Test Repo"?

Re: Package request: UNetbootin for MX-19


Open a terminal in the directory containing the unetbootin binary then run
./unetbootin-linux64-677.bin
and it will prompt you for your root password then its GUI comes up. I didn't test it further than that as I have no need or desire for unetbootin. The USB tools that MX comes with or have ...

Re: Package request: UNetbootin for MX-19


"didn't work" tells us nothing. How exactly did you run the application, and what exactly happened?


"didn't work for me" really just means I have a low skill level. I didn't really mean to imply that anything was wrong with MX19, sorry if it sounded that way. At that time I would just get ...

Re: Package request: UNetbootin for MX-19

I tried it again, chmod +x ... did work.
If you go into Properties->Permissions and check the box ... Allow this file to run as a program ... didn't work for me.
Thanks
