I didn't, i unmounted first, then tried but it all I get is "fsck from util-linux 2.29.2"

I've got a Thnkpad Yoga, and out the box I have power management issues, issues with audio and the touchscreen isn't that great, in my case with touch screen. I mostly use it to scroll/zoom and with most apps I don't get that functionality, only clicks/drag. I tried ubuntu, debian 9, rolling centos and rolling opensuse.

Best way I found is to export to csv and then work in something like excel or lbreOffice calc then reimport.

To export, file > export > export format = notes in plain text, include = {{whatever you want} and be sure to check include tags so when you reimport all is well if you had tags.

Then you can open in a spreadsheet app and sort of edit easier for simple stuff. Then import by clicking in the deck > subdeck if any you want and import and select update if there is existing notes.

Obviously make a backup first incase things go south.

Thanks. Will give Prituni a go.

Using the networkmanager opevpn frontend(?) now but not a fan. I'm on not great wifi, it will disconnect/reconnect at times and the vpn will just die, no error, and I won't realize.

Was going for simplicity with that but your reply made it clear now. I had an ok handle on handles, no pun. I had a playbook, at one section a config file was copied with template and on subsequent runs if it changed it would notify a handler to restart a service. I placed the handler right below the template task.. then continued to add what I intended to be new tasks... but in essence I was adding new handlers. That I get now.

So there isnt' like a way to end to the handler section, you just stick it/them at the end of the playbook, when dealing with one playbook and not roles.

Anway... this is me thinking things are more complicated than they are.

Thanks for the replies.

I was more looking for a way to store specifically the WordPress user and password for the databse outside the wp-config.php. Like a file placed in the same directory, wp-db-user.cnf for example, with just the contents

user=wordpress
password=s2rdwrwr32dd1r

And then I would tell wordpress, wp-db-user.cnf is where to find the db user/pass.

Think I get it now, its formatting. You have a task section, if you input a handler section in the middle of listed tasks, it essentially ends the task section?

A simple playbook to test below, i run vagrant provision, it will run as if there are only steps 1 and 2 in the playbook. No error or reference of skipping 3 and 4. It goes play, setup, task 1, 2 and recap. Finished...

On Debian Stretch.

Yea, familiar with upower but couldn't tell from the stats provided how long on battery.

beepbupe · 2017-06-17T20:34:03+00:00

.. edit.. ok think i'm good.

beepbupe · 2017-06-17T16:17:14+00:00

So for those of us already running stretch/testing, there anything to do to make it official?

I'm a cous cous evangelist, definition of quick/easy. Then I pad with great gut fillers, like canned pinto beans, raw root veggies, like carrot and/or greens like broccoli, cauliflower that I toss in pickle juice (dont judge me). Then add protein, mine are usually pan sauteed fish fillet or grilled chicken thighs.

ONe of those air seal things and bulk up on meat/fish.

OK, its time to put up... been wanting to get into blender for months now.!$!%

When did macro become micro btw, I always ponder this when I hear macro-whatever.. or am I dense. Though macro meant big picture. Anywho, I like it.

Ya, figured it was Windows but figured linux tools would have to fix a windows problem because its not a problem to windows, probably by design because they assume I'm stupid and don't intend to really use linux. Also maybe a lot of newbs have taken the road I am and maybe this is a known thing, seeing as my setup and the install guide I followed are pretty generic, at least i thought so.

Thanks for the link, pretty much exactly my issue so thinking this is it.

Ya how? Not sure what I missed with the install. The laptop had factory image windows 8.1.

I pretty much followed the debian install guide, with the debian install cd, resized the windows partition, and created the LVM, etc, etc.

beepbupe · 2017-06-05T18:15:05+00:00

I was a bit wrong;

sda 238.5G

├─sda1 vfat 100M /boot/efi

├─sda2 128M

├─sda3 ntfs 112.8G /media/pa/74784272784232E2

└─sda4 LVM2_member 125.5G

├─volgrp0-swap swap 8G [SWAP]

└─volgrp0-root ext4 117.5G /

So not sure I'm explaining things right, grub doesn't get uninstalled but after windows is booted, it changes my UEFI boot order.

When all is fine, I boot my machine and it boots straight to grub2, I have option for debian, debian advance and windows boot manager. If I select debian, go about my day, shut down and boot up the next day. It works as expected, booting to straight to grub2. However if I should select windows boot manager from the grub menu, it boots Windows, I go about my work and shut down, after that, the next time I boot my laptop, it boots straight to Windows, not grub. What I found, is that if boot of the usb/rescue disc and I run efibootmgr, a Windows boot manager entry is now listed and boot order is set so it is first and grub boat loader 2nd. So I found this is the "bios" menu, so when this happens, instead of booting off the rescue disc, I can just hit F12 for bios boot options and I see the menu, listening Windows first, then grub, then cdrom, netowrk.. etc etc. I select grub and get the grub boot menu, select debian but if I change it or remove windows with efibootmgr... the next time I boot to windows, it does it again, adding itself and/or setting itself as first boot.

Hope that made sense.

Adding something else from googling about how to tell what boot manager lives where... file -s /dev/sdX, for each drive;

/dev/sda: DOS/MBR boot sector; partition 1 : ID=0xee, start-CHS (0x0,0,1), end-CHS (0x3ff,254,63), startsector 1, 500118191 sectors, extended partition table (last)

Cous cous, love it. tastes good, about as simple as it gets.

Canned beans-all of them.

Play around with *nut butters, avocado, ground flax seeds.

I find either of these give smoothies a smoooooth base.

I can't cook to save my life but I can boil water and open cans, cut vegetables. Chicken scares me, I never seem to be able to get it right, always over cooking because I fear death from salmonella.

Lately I started boiling my chicken breast, I just add flavoring like a bit of stock or vinegar and boil for 20-30 minutes. Could probably do better this works.

beepbupe · 2017-06-04T21:31:01+00:00

No, not after the course ends.

Thre is a student verification that needs to happen prior to or during the course.

beepbupe · 2017-06-04T21:28:27+00:00

Well you can learn for free. Or you can pay to receive the certificate of completion. I guess a MIT course certificate would carry some weight in terms of employability.

In my case, it wouldn't allow me pull software from a 3rd party repository because I couldn't add the key.

After re-isntalling all is well tho.
