wont let me edit my follow up posts, as such, wont be maintaining/updating this thread, as its frustrating. in short samba still not working properly.
still have not successfully installed/setup linux mint after several attempts, and to note. linux mint cinnamon does not allow duplex sound though input to output linux mint mate glitches with mate on the default window position on paint shop pro under wine. really disappointing so far. if this carries on, im going to some other OS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1939845 Title: Kernal update 5.4.0-81 broke samba network Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux source package in Focal: In Progress Bug description: Introduction: I use Samba for linux/windows based network, this involves a shared, ext4 folder on linux mint pc and ntfs drive on router and ntfs folder on windows 7 pc. thereabouts: I had all previous updates, that were current before kernal 5.4.0-81, and my network worked fine. I used the update manager to install kernal 5.4.0-81, from the tray icons (or whatever they are called in linux), as well as updating the relating dependencies when that popped up. I restarted, and then, I cant, see or acces, the, router storage or windows 7 pc, likewise my windows 7 pc cant, see or access, the linux pc. I waited a good amount of time, and tried restarting, this didnt work. I reverted the kernal and dependencies to their earlier version, still same problem, even after several, restarts and waiting. I notice the modifications to the samba config are still present, that were required for samba to network correctly with, windows pc and router, shares. I then updated to the new kernal again, because it makes no difference, seems as previous kernal has broken share, therefore, fix will likely be same for both now. furthermore: I have asus rt-n65u router with latest firmware. I am using samba (maybe this, has been affected or needs its code updating?). the internet is still working, that are a usb dongle through router, to linux mint pc. ---- System: Kernel: 5.4.0-81-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 9.3.0 Desktop: Cinnamon 5.0.5 wm: muffin dm: LightDM Distro: Linux Mint 20.2 Uma base: Ubuntu 20.04 focal Machine: Type: Desktop Mobo: MSI model: FM2-A55M-P33 (MS-7721) v: 3.0 serial: <filter> UEFI: American Megatrends v: 11.6 date: 02/12/2015 CPU: Topology: Quad Core model: AMD A10-6700 APU with Radeon HD Graphics bits: 64 type: MCP arch: Piledriver rev: 1 L2 cache: 2048 KiB flags: avx lm nx pae sse sse2 sse3 sse4_1 sse4_2 sse4a ssse3 svm bogomips: 29546 Speed: 2350 MHz min/max: 1800/3700 MHz Core speeds (MHz): 1: 2321 2: 2310 3: 2207 4: 2156 Graphics: Device-1: AMD Pitcairn PRO [Radeon HD 7850 / R7 265 / R9 270 1024SP] vendor: PC Partner Limited driver: radeon v: kernel bus ID: 01:00.0 chip ID: 1002:6819 Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.11 driver: ati,radeon unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,vesa resolution: 1920x1080~60Hz OpenGL: renderer: AMD PITCAIRN (DRM 2.50.0 5.4.0-81-generic LLVM 12.0.1) v: 4.5 Mesa 21.3.0-devel (git-513fb54 2021-08-12 focal-oibaf-ppa) direct render: Yes Audio: Device-1: AMD FCH Azalia vendor: Micro-Star MSI driver: snd_hda_intel v: kernel bus ID: 00:14.2 chip ID: 1022:780d Device-2: AMD Oland/Hainan/Cape Verde/Pitcairn HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 7000 Series] vendor: PC Partner Limited driver: snd_hda_intel v: kernel bus ID: 01:00.1 chip ID: 1002:aab0 Device-3: Generalplus USB Audio Device type: USB driver: hid-generic,snd-usb-audio,usbhid bus ID: 7-2:2 chip ID: 1b3f:2008 Sound Server: ALSA v: k5.4.0-81-generic Network: Device-1: Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet vendor: Micro-Star MSI driver: r8169 v: kernel port: d000 bus ID: 02:00.0 chip ID: 10ec:8168 IF: enp2s0 state: up speed: 1000 Mbps duplex: full mac: <filter> Drives: Local Storage: total: 380.08 GiB used: 86.82 GiB (22.8%) ID-1: /dev/sda type: USB vendor: Micron model: MT-32 VLI size: 29.82 GiB speed: 3.0 Gb/s serial: <filter> ID-2: /dev/sdb model: BT58SSD10S size: 238.47 GiB speed: 3.0 Gb/s serial: <filter> temp: 40 C ID-3: /dev/sdc vendor: SanDisk model: SDSSDHII120G size: 111.79 GiB speed: 3.0 Gb/s serial: <filter> temp: 30 C Partition: ID-1: / size: 233.24 GiB used: 78.37 GiB (33.6%) fs: ext4 dev: /dev/sdb2 ID-2: swap-1 size: 55.89 GiB used: 0 KiB (0.0%) fs: swap dev: /dev/sdc1 Sensors: System Temperatures: cpu: 20.5 C mobo: N/A gpu: radeon temp: 36 C Fan Speeds (RPM): N/A Repos: No active apt repos in: /etc/apt/sources.list Active apt repos in: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/additional-repositories.list 1: deb https: //dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ bionic main Active apt repos in: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cybermax-dexter-sdl2-backport-focal.list 1: deb http: //ppa.launchpad.net/cybermax-dexter/sdl2-backport/ubuntu focal main Active apt repos in: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/official-package-repositories.list 1: deb https: //www.mirrorservice.org/sites/packages.linuxmint.com/packages uma main upstream import backport 2: deb http: //mirror.as29550.net/archive.ubuntu.com focal main restricted universe multiverse 3: deb http: //mirror.as29550.net/archive.ubuntu.com focal-updates main restricted universe multiverse 4: deb http: //mirror.as29550.net/archive.ubuntu.com focal-backports main restricted universe multiverse 5: deb http: //security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-security main restricted universe multiverse 6: deb http: //archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ focal partner Active apt repos in: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/oibaf-graphics-drivers-focal.list 1: deb http: //ppa.launchpad.net/oibaf/graphics-drivers/ubuntu focal main Info: Processes: 221 Uptime: 48m Memory: 15.66 GiB used: 2.12 GiB (13.5%) Init: systemd v: 245 runlevel: 5 Compilers: gcc: 9.3.0 alt: 9 Client: Unknown python3.8 client inxi: 3.0.38 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1939845/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
