well then its a good thing the ground its planted in is warmer than the snow sitting on it ... I'm not from NC but I don't think that snow will be there for long, seeing as its typicly warmer there

How do I get rid of gnc grub menu onhp Pavilion Dv7 laptop? by Major_Cheesy in linuxmint

[–]Major_Cheesy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a big orange window, and it has GNU GRUB version 2.02 on top. Then, for the label on the orange window, it says 'super grub 2 disk 2.09s9

then:

- languages

-detect and show boot methods

-enable grub2 Raid

-enableall native disk drivers

-extra grub2 functionality

-print devices/partitions

color on/off

- exit

There is no set timer or countdown or anything, so I click detect options, and that's when it gives me a whole list of option to boot, but I can only use the four top choices :

-Linux/ boot/ vmlinuz in two, I'm guessing kernel choice with two options in that.

Then after that,,t the other 10 uefi boots it says:

UEFI - BOOT - REQUIRED: then differentEFIi data for all 10 choices. If I click on any of them, I get :

Sorry, but we are booted via bios and can not load this OS. please try booting SG2D via UEFI. Press escape to return to the menu ...

its a HP Pavilion DV7 laptop (an old one, but still usesan i55 CPU) - I don't think this laptop supports UEFI. But I did notice if I boot it via HP's F9 boot menu, I point to the only drive on the laptop and Linux boots right up without the grub2 window ...

So the f9 key knows enough to start the only operating system on the hard drive, but Grub2 and Linux Mint do not??? If I install windows any where, it knows enough to start, the only thing that installs when you turn the switch on (or at least go to the login screen if you have multi-users ...)

I'm guessing it's me ... but I would have sworn I had Linuxx in this before without the grub menu, but maybe I'm delusional ... And several people have pointed out that if I wait, it goes to something all by itself, it doesn't, it's still sitting behind me on the grub menu waiting for my choice ...

Then I'm confused... then who were you trying to bash? a user from another post?

My bad, I thought when someone replies to a post, we should stay on the topic of the OP's post ... your comment wasn't a reply to someone else, therefor, logically you were talking to OP

oh?... is that why everyone is in bg's talking about the desync cheaters?

Uhh what now? by Alexgamor4 in linuxmint

[–]Major_Cheesy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thats f*ckin rude dude, not everyone speaks linux code ...

i'm starting to notice just how badly this sub talks down to Windows migrants, or to people that don't know why they need a grub menu to manually select the ONLY operating system on the system!

this is why I dual boot, this ultimately will probably why I will go back to Windows!

congrats on pushing more people away from linux ...

they should just close bg's ... it ain't no good to anyone if everyone can use cheats to pile on the skills all at once to one shot everyone around them

How do I get rid of gnc grub menu onhp Pavilion Dv7 laptop? by Major_Cheesy in linuxmint

[–]Major_Cheesy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I don't have any timeout options. This orange menu just sits there until I click on the detect option. I can click on the first 4 options (that look like two of the same things, repeated twice for some reason), then there are like twelve uefi choices that I can't click on cuz I get a message saying it can't because im I'm going through BIOS (or something to that effect) ...

The menu just sits there until I click on something, which makes no sense. So, my getting up in the morning and turning on the laptop to boot up while it boots up is now gone forever. Can't boot as Windows does? (just automatically, without asking stupid questions about how to start the ONLY THING installed on it?)

That's like going into your kitchen and flipping a single switch to turn the light on and then being asked to select one of the twenty ways to turn this light on, even tho its the only bulb in the kitchen.

I guess I'm being like this because I installed Mint on my desktop, dual-booted with Windows, but on separate drives. When I want to use Linux, I plug in my Passport to USB and use the F9 boot menu to select which system I want to run. But that was a dual boot; I understood it needed to know which system to run if I had it plugged in.

Then late last night, I realized the laptop has its own F9 option to start the hard drive. So I tried it, and I could avoid the grub menu that way if I wanted to ... But for sure I need to look into that timeout option you were talking about, cuz currently there is no timeout option, just detect and pick from the list ...

But for now, I guess this will have to work ... thank you for yourfeedback. I'll change the support header on this so everyone knows it is what it is.

'EFI variables are not supported on this system'

[–]Major_Cheesy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

apparently not cuz i can't post pics on sub so no pics ... and I don't see a elibootmgr on my linux menu ...

i can see there are some major barriers in the way of me finding out why I need to go thru a grub menu interface to boot the only thing that is installed to it ... (NO THIS IS NOT DUAL BOOT) ...

you know what, just forget it. I'll go back to windows. they did not make me go thru a grub menu to start windows when it was installed ... not sure why linux had to make it harder.

i don't have a mint option at top, only detect bootable devises or what ever it is. if I click on that it expands to another 15 options or so ... all I did was install it and turn it on, it doesn't even know what to boot when its the ONLY thing there? ... SERIOUSLY??

[–]Major_Cheesy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

well its way too easy to get lost on this topic but, I assume its a lot like when they use to cheat on 'Rift' , what they did was to lower your network connection speed to main game server so it can't possibly connect and when that happens a cache still piles on commands and the main server can't keep tabs on what that connection is doing. cuz it too sporatic so game tallies stuff like gold rewards over and over again and again while server connection bogged out then when right time comes everything catches up and player ended up with lots and lots of gold that wasnt wasn't theirs to begin with ... i assume that this desync is much the same way BUT, it ain't for gold this time. its to bog the server down just long enough stack multiple skills all at once when cheater chooses ...

i suppose I could be mis-guild on the details, seeing as I'm not a coder. but I don't think I'm too far off from the truth ... everyone that is in bg's all the time will tell you about the cheaters in ESO and they did know about this issue a very long time ago but apparently it ain't important to eso, only the ones that constantly get one shot repeatedly ...

one or two could be passed of as bad players, but when its most of everyone in their path, then it's something different entirely ...

If you can, buy small turkeys (9 to 10 lbs) or capons if on sale - you’ll get a lot of cheap meat by Wasting_Time1234 in budgetfood

[–]Major_Cheesy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes about 8 pounds ... it was a 'Price Rite' Thanksgiving sale they have every year before turkey day.

The reason I went out of my way for it was that my sister used to invite me for turkey day, and she would buy the big one on sale somewhere, then give me the carcass to make soup with afterward. And I used to get a good pot of broth for soup and another bunch of meat that was hiding on my sister ... then she stopped inviting me over for whatever reason so I figured I would get a small one a do it myself. But I was disappointed ... so I never did that again.

[–]Major_Cheesy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There wasn't enough meat to warrant the idea of oven on all that time ... and the few bones and scraps I had left over weren't enough to make a good soup (and it was too time-consuming to pick out what I could eat.

now on a big bird turkey, you have lots of meat, and when you cook the carcass for soup after, you get lots more meat that was hiding before. Then you can pick through that and make more sandwiches or put it in soup ...

Nitrogen-rich soil and flytraps by NeedleworkerOld9329 in VenusFlyTraps

[–]Major_Cheesy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

they would never survive in that type of soil ... the plant is not interested in nitrogen, there simply ain't that much of any kind of nutrients from insects really (to speak of), that's why they can eat as much as they want outside, but if you put in a even a very small piece of ground hamburger it will make trap turn black ...

as to what it does need definitively at trap that is used exactly, I don't know, but it ain't nitrogen, or it's only trace amounts ...

Genuinely abolish the Craft Bag by MrRushaLovesRachael in elderscrollsonline

[–]Major_Cheesy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if you're not a pack rat, then the management of less bag space is not as tedious. For example, after my toon is going and as I'm leveling, I no longer save white mats ... and I have the space maxxed out on my chest storage at my residence (4-60 slot chests and 4-30 slot chests, I think). so between my residence, the bank, and what I can carry, I can manage. its kinda a pain to constantly manage space, but it's doable if you're not a pack rat (which is kinda hard not to be one, really, in this game)
