Trying it out right now

Update: I think that Onboard is good enough to replace Gnome’s OSK.

mmababes,

Yup

mmababes,

Looks good but I’m using X11

[Resolved] Debian 12: trying to auto-mount a NTFS-formatted hard drive by making an entry in fstab. Getting the error "mount: /etc/fstab: parse error at line 18 -- ignored"

Here’s the entry in the fstab file for mounting my hard drive. I have bolded the name of the hard drive (that’s what it shows up as on the dock when it isn’t mounted):...

Yup, that’s the name.

I changed the entry on fstab to this (tried it with both single quotes and double quotes) and I’m stilling getting the parse error:

UUID=D4C0A66EC0A65710 “/media/lucky/New Volume” ntfs rw,auto,users,exec,nls=utf8,umask=003,gid=46,uid=1000 0 0

Btw I’m using the ntfs-3g driver, if that helps.

mmababes,

The asterisks are not in fstab file. I just added them here to emphasize the name of the hdd.

That REALLY doesn’t seem like a good idea considering that *'s are wildcards for anything, and Linux isn’t really fond of spaces.

There are no asterisks in the fstab file. I put them here to emphasize the name of the hdd (I edited my original post to remove them to avoid confusing people).

Also do you have a lib or something for linux to handle NTFS file system types?

I’m using the ntfs-3g driver.

Btw this is what the entry on fstab looks like now but I’m still getting the parsing error:

UUID=D4C0A66EC0A65710 “/media/lucky/New Volume” ntfs rw,auto,users,exec,nls=utf8,umask=003,gid=46,uid=1000 0 0

This worked.

I edited the fstab file:

`UUID=D4C0A66EC0A65710 /media/lucky/New

There were no asterisks in the fstab file, I just placed them here to emphasize the name of the hdd.

Btw I got Debian to automount the hdd (thanks to @shortdorkyasian) by adding this entry to the fstab file:

`UUID=D4C0A66EC0A65710 /media/lucky/New

But you have a space in there. I don’t know how spaces are handled in fstab. You’ll either need to quote it or at least escape the space

Instead of using spaces or quotes (single or double), I used `

Using `

These files are anywhere between 600 MB to 1.5 GB in size and thet are stored locally on my PC.

mmababes,

Which ones in specefic?

mmababes,

Shoot can’t install it because it’s probably in a repository that is not listed in my sources

mmababes, (edited )

Got the command to work. Here’s the info for one of the files for which a preview thumbnail/icon isn’t available:

This is what I see when I open Gnome Files, click on the icon with three lines, and select Preferences (there’s no option for choosing the max size):

mmababes,

I have been installing the codecs through the Software app. Should I delete them and then install through the terminal?

Btw here are the codecs I have installed through the Software app:

mmababes,

Ext4

mmababes,

The font issue is affecting other websites I go to as well.

I installed the mscorefonts (sudo apt install ttf-mscorefonts-installer) but still having this issue.

mmababes,

I’m having the same issue on other sites as well (not all but some). Does this have something to do with Frefox and MS fonts?

mmababes, (edited )

Thank you, worked like a charm.

Fixed the issue by going tothis link (posted by @Tzeentch), bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1621915, and implementing the solution mentioned by user, Pablo:
