October 3, 2016|codec, DSM, Linux, mint, XPEnology|科技資訊, 音樂電影

I have a Samsung smart TV, it can play AAC video format, but only with mp4 container, mkv file format is NOT supported. Here is a simple way to convert them. materials: synology linux 1. create NFS share on Synology Shared Folder > Edit > NFS Permission hostname/IP: 192.168.x.0/24 (allow whole subnet) then press “OK” …

VMware workstation 11 Autofit guest

June 1, 2015|Linux, mint, VMware|科技資訊, 電腦編程

更新了VMware Workstation 11, “View > Autosize > Autofit guest” 沒了. 再安裝VMware Tools (close source) 也不成. (Mint 17) sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools 也不能. 用了幾小時重新安裝vmware workstation, host’s graphic card driver, 還是沒有效用. 打開 synaptic package manager, search “open-vm-tools”. 頂, 原來還有個 GUI 的open-vm-tools-desktop

$ sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools open-vm-tools-desktop

Upgrade Mint 14 to Mint 17 (2/2: customization)

September 6, 2014|Linux, mint|電腦編程

續篇, 前一篇: Upgrade Mint 14 to Mint 17 (1/2: installation) 1st issue: Theme broken Preference > Apperance > select new theme : e.g. Mint-X 2: pluma error:

Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-khmer.conf", line XX: out of memory (pluma:24894): IBUS-WARNING **: The owner of ~/.config/ibus/bus is not root!

1	Fontconfig error: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-khmer.conf", line XX: out of memory (pluma:24894): IBUS-WARNING **: The owner of ~/.config/ibus/bus is not root!

run Update Manager 就會冇左65-khmer.conf , 或者 apt-get purge fonts-khmeros-core 3: Panel 自行加入menu icon, unlock panel, 再自己加入 short cut. 由4 workspaces個改做2個 4: gradle version 太舊, 在synaptic package manager 中移除, 再用gvm install Gradle …

Upgrade Mint 14 to Mint 17 (1/2: installation)

September 4, 2014|Linux, mint|電腦編程

Mint 14 (mate) 已經end-of-life, 2個月前更新了工作用的電腦. 現在留下一個記錄. 如果沒有太多customization, 其實直接安裝mint 17 再copy home directory back 比較方便. Reference: http://www.linuxmint.com/oldreleases.php https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases https://gist.github.com/hgomez/7074150 http://www.tecmint.com/upgrade-linux-mint-16-to-linux-mint-17/ Step 1: Backup $ sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list ~/sources.list.org 備份home 連同其他有需要directories, mysqldump, CloneZilla image ….etc. Step 2: verify current version

$ sudo cat /etc/issue.net && echo -e \\n && cat /etc/lsb-release && echo -e && cat /etc/os-release

install Gradle and Groovy on Mint 17

Initially found a script to install gradle, but later on found out that script is not required because groovy environment manager can also install gradle.
