Thanks merlyn! I got 100% recovery. I run Back in Time nightly so restoring was easy (I'm a little excessive with backing up at home and also do an offsite backup every couple of weeks, learned the hard way). It was a great relief as I've got a bunch of in progress music.merlyn wrote:Do you want to get the data back? I've had good results with ddrescue:ufug wrote:I had a drive failure last week

Is this official? KXStudio has been running fine on my Kubuntu 18.04 since April of 2018.oddy.o.lynx wrote: Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial

Source: https://wiki.debian.org/NewInBusterThe su command in buster is provided by the util-linux source package, instead of the shadow source package, and no longer alters the PATH variable by default. This means that after doing su, your PATH may not contain directories like /sbin, and many system administration commands will fail. There are several workarounds:
- Use su - instead; this launches a login shell, which forces PATH to be changed, but also changes everything else including the working directory.
- Use sudo instead. sudo still runs commands with an altered PATH variable.
- To get a regular root shell with the correct PATH, you may use sudo -s.
- To get a login shell as root (equivalent to su -), you may use sudo -i.
- Put ALWAYS_SET_PATH yes in /etc/login.defs to get an approximation of the old behavior.
- Put the system administration directories (/sbin, /usr/sbin, /usr/local/sbin) in your regular account's PATH (see EnvironmentVariables for help with this).
I disagree. If you don't want to use it -- don't, but why give Ubuntu Studio a bad name?millerthegorilla wrote:Finally, I would like for people to avoid ubuntu studio
Mint 19 marks the switch from being based on Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial to 18.04 Bionic (Bionic is from the year 2018 so I think that one should be well supported). Mint 19 "Tessa" is also from 2018. Can other anybody confirm that Mint Tessa does not work well w/ KXStudio?oddy.o.lynx wrote:I could be wrong and apologize for the misinformation if I am. The KXstudio website does say
"Debian 9 (Stretch) or Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) you'll also need to enable GCC5 packages"
but I do believe KX repos will install and work well up to 18.04 Bionic Beaver, but I have never attempted it so can't confirm.
My experience is that I had everything working smoothly on Mint 18.3 and when Linux Mint 19 came out I installed it and tried them together and it was a mess. This compelled me to re-install everything this time with Debian Stretch KDE which has proven to be rock solid.
Can we persuade you to install Carla from KXStudio and to try it once? Then we'll know if that sort of stuff works in 'Buntu 19. After that you can remove Carla again of course...milo wrote:I am running Mint 19 on my studio machine, and haven't had any problems with KXstudio repository. Works great as far as I can tell. But I don't use any of the KX software: Carla, Cadence, Catia, [insert random female name that starts with C], etc. so I can't say much about them.
That's great! So you didn't uminstall anything and left also the kxstudio repo in the source list?khz wrote:I have updated several machines from Debian-9 (stretch) to Debian-10 (buster) - as I described it in my "GNU/Linux Debian ... LAW" topic.
