  1. I remember that being a feature a while ago, I didn't know it was still available. I'll give it a shot, thanks mate
  2. My wife and I have mostly chatted long-distance on Messenger for most of our relationship (6 years and counting), and it'd be a hard blow if we lost any of the contents by some freak of nature (i.e. Facebook going out of business, however unlikely that is). Is there a piece of software or a method I could use to back everything up in say, a PDF format? I've looked at the Decipher Download tool, but I just want to make sure there's no other method floating out there before I drop $20 on mystery software. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot!
  3. I was hoping to avoid getting a new motherboard entirely, but it looks like that's what I'll have to do. Thanks for your help man. SOLUTION: Sh*t card & worn motherboard, buying replacement parts entirely.
  4. I was plugging it into one of the native USB 3.0 slots on my motherboard, but ever single one of them is either shorted out or not pushing enough power through to the headset. I hate to say it, but you're probably right. This one seemed reputable enough, but I guess not. Do you have any recommendations on a card that WON'T be a complete waste of time?
  5. I installed this PCIe USB 3.0 expansion card in my main system earlier this morning <https://www.amazon.com/FebSmart-Self-Powered-Technology-No-Additional-FS-U4-Pro/dp/B072LS4JH7> The error I'm getting is within the attached image on this post. Obviously it's not initializing, but all my PCIe slots seem to be functioning just fine. The device is not showing up in the BIOS, but it's being picked up in Device Manager. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps I could think of, including manual driver updates, having Windows search for drivers online, disabling fast boot in the BIOS: But nothing's worked. If there's *anyone* that's familiar with this error, please lend me a hand. I need this expansion card because my Oculus Rift S REFUSES to function without a powered USB 3.0 hub. Not sure if this helps anyone, but I've included screenshots of my system's PCIe GPP Bridge info. Please and thank you!!
  6. I've tried every other forum and Oculus support, but found nothing helpful, so I'm giving this forum a shot. Long story short, I've run into numerous points where the system would stop tracking my controllers when I'm in-game. I could still rotate my digital hands in any direction, but my system can't track my head movements and my controllers stick to the point they were at when the tracking was lost. I don't know what else to try. I've tried everything I could possibly find online in forums and tutorials. I bought my Oculus Rift S back in August, and it *IMMEDIATELY* bugged out on me by losing tracking in both controllers after about 30 or so minutes of playing. I returned the first one and got a replacement, hoping that all I had was a defective unit. Come to find out, a week into using the new model: History repeated itself and I was faced with immediate tracking issues. The pass-through mode was only static, tipping me off to the issue being with my USB ports on my PC. I got a PCI powered and non-powered expansion card, but that didn't fix the issue. So a failed fix, and $65 later, I tried the typical "turn off power limiting settings in Windows" trick. Nothing. My PC is up to date, Nvidia drivers installed and updated, power management set to "f*ck you PC, you're my slave: DO WHAT I SAY"... And nothing is fixed. I'm about 4 days away from returning this POS to the Best Buy I got it from, and giving up on VR. I had such high hopes for it, hearing about it from colleagues and friends who had it. Unfortunately, this has brought me to the point where I'm debating on whether or not to actually just full-on DESTROY the thing out of rage. Has anyone else had the same issue in the past? Oculus claims its a firmware issue, but I find that very hard to believe. It's not NEW, so it shouldn't bug out as often as it does! I've got to say, in my 23 years on this planet, I've never been so disappointed and rage-filled over anything else tech-related in my life.
  7. I'm using Mariadb for that, and my system is configured properly to where it's recognized on Nextcloud. I wonder if I need to do any config changes on there at all
  8. All of the commands were accepted, and I see this now (attached photo), so that worked well. Though, for some reason, Nextcloud is still not showing the test images and files I put onto the drive. I've rebooted apache2 as well, so I'm not sure what else to do.
  9. Okay. I have access to the drive through my ubuntu user profile, and Nextcloud is accepting the local mount point and saving the settings. I used the following commands in this exact order on a newly formatted drive (EXT4): sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /mnt/sdb1 sudo chmod -R 0750 /mnt/sdb1 sudo chown -R talaftw /mnt/sdb1 sudo chmod -R 0770 /mnt/sdb1 After that, my profile can add and edit the files on the drive. Now, Nextcloud (within the control panel) will not show any of the files that are present on the drive, even with the permissions.
  10. Looks like I've got some more reading to do... I don't even know what to put in as my user profile besides "root", since that doesn't work either
  11. Does anyone know the exact command I can paste into the terminal? I'm completely new to attaching hard drives to a cloud service like this
  12. So, once I get Nextcloud to have ownership, I should put do the same with my user profile?
  13. I'm nearly finished setting up my Nextcloud server, but I have a slight problem. When I give permission to Nextcloud to access my local drive (4TB Seagate external drive), my Ubuntu user profile no longer has the ability to make changes to the drive, let alone access the content on the drive at all. This is the command I'm using to give Nextcloud full permissions on the mounted disk: sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /mnt/sdb1 ~ sudo chmod -R 0750 /mnt/sdb1 My friends suggested I use this command to give my Ubuntu profile (TalaFTW) access to the drive: sudo chown talaftw -v /mnt/sdb1 However, when I use the second command, the files within the drive still can't be accessed, or some will be and others won't. My question is: Is there any way to give both Nextcloud & my Ubuntu profile permission to do everything we need to do to basically be dual gods to the drive? Shared permissions that won't conflict with each other? I've asked other forums and none of them would give me a straight and simple to follow answer. Thank you very much in advance. Cheers
  14. This might be a simple question for some of you out there; at least, that's my current hope. I'm currently attempting to lead Nextcloud to recognize my EXT4-formated eternal hard drive, so that I can have space to host content for my members. In the "Configuration" slot, I'm assuming they're asking for the disk's mount point, but I'm too new to Linux to understand how to find it correctly. I simply put </mnt> in, and it accepted it. In the content area of the site, I am able to see a folder with the correct folders. However, when I click on them to see what is inside, they're all empty. I'm not sure how to have the content visible and having it "streamed" (for lack of a better term) straight from the hard drive. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could do? Thanks in advance
  15. I'm following this video above to connect my Raspberry Pi to my ExtHDD. In the video, he explains that we'll need the drive mount point to give it permissions to be accessed in Nextcloud. He can see the "mount point" on the OMV control panel > File Systems (1st attached photo) But I cannot (2nd attached photo). I'm sure the mount point for my ExtHDD is /srv/dev-by-label-VIP, but nothing works when I put that path into Nextcloud's external drive app. Is there a terminal command I can use to see exactly where the actual mount point is? I've searched all over forums and can't seem to find how I can find it. I've mounted the drive, but the mount point isn't displayed for me on the OMV control panel. I ANSWERED MY OWN QUESTION SMH: If the mount point column doesn't show for you, click the "mounted" bar and select "columns". From there, you can select to show the "mount point" column Sometimes I surprise myself with how I can ask a question but immediately get the answer by simply looking around
