Usually when I come across a system like this, Ijust flash the firmware to an IT mode so we get just an AHCI system with JBOD, but sometimes it is not practical for remote systems or if we fear that flashing is too risky if something goes wrong. In this case, we unfortunately have to use LSI/Broadcom proprietary CLI tools (megacli) to even make the drives visible. Step 1 - Download MegaCLI The official broadcom packages lack .deb packages and only have .rpm for........

Step 1.) Upgrade to Debian 11 first The process to go to Debian 12 is not as smooth as 11, when trying to upgrade from Debian 10.

Virtualbox is a very powerful tool, but for some use cases it is less than optimal. Say you are in a work, lab or other environment where you are not alone on the physical network and there could be overlap of IPs, but you need all of your VMs to be contactable from your host, VMs need to communicate with each other, and VMs need internet. NAT Network will give you VM to VM communication and internet, however, it is buggy and unstable. It also doesn't allow host to VM co........

This can be used on almost anything, since Gluster is a userspace tool, based on FUSE. This means that all Gluster appears as to any application is just a directory. Applications don't need specific support for Gluster, so long as you can tell the application to use a certain directory for storage. One application can be for redundant and scaled storage, including for within Docker and Kubernetes, LXC, Proxmox, OpenStack, etc or just your image/web/video files or even da........

The scenario here is that you have some sort of remote headless Linux server but would like to run some programs on them and get graphical access to them.

This problem has been around forever, Linux seems to think it is fine to use the r8169 driver for an r8168 NIC but this often causes problems including the link not working at all. In my case ethttool shows the link up and detected but it simply does not work especially on a laptop that has been resumed from suspension. Sometimes it takes several minutes for it to work or to unplug and replug the ethernet. Here is the solution: Install th........

I don't consider a lot of these "extra" kernel modules "nice to have" as they often contain drivers for essential items like your soundcard, your NIC and many other devices that may not work. Sometimes you may find that "sound" or "ethernet" worked before a kernel/OS upgrade and now in the new version they don't. Often it will be because you need to install the "extra" kernel modules. One other weird thing is that sometimes........

If you've just installed VBox and it is not starting or working, the most common problem is usually that you don't have your kernel source installed, which means there is no kernel driver for vbox so it can't work.

So the first thing you should do is install your kernel source by running this: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`........

I dread updating the kernel and rebooting to find the Ubuntu graphics aren't working and you have to manually intervene.

The most common reason may be that "linux-source" hasn't been installed automatically on my system. I tried to manually reinstall the........
