Troubles setting up Plex in fresh Linux Mint install.
  • I like this guide! However, I keep running into an Operation not permitted error when attempting to change the ownership to the plex.plex group. I've run into this a few times and cannot seem to get around it.

    EDIT: Got it working, though still running into an operation not permitted error. Though, I unmounted and remounted the drives changing the uid to a new mount point. Plex is able to see the files now!

    Now to start messing with docker...

    EDIT 2: Short lived, changes revert after reboot and have to remount again with changes.

  • Troubles setting up Plex in fresh Linux Mint install.

    Hello all, I've been reading this community from the outside for some time, and I finally decided to dip my toe into Linux a bit. I have an old PC I was using to run Plex through a Windows install, but this is now a Linux Mint Cinnamon machine.

    I have Plex Media Server installed and running, however I am having a hell of a time getting it to see my external drive where my media is located.

    Trying a bunch of research, it seems like it is a permissions issue that I cannot seem to shake. Plex is able to see the drive, though nothing in it. I've googled as much as I can, but none of the suggestions seem to help me. I've tried to run the command chown, though I get an operation not successful error in return.

    ls -la never shows the plex user or group listed, and I've tried for about 2 hours trying various things and have had no success.

    Additionally, the other two drives I have connected are stuck in read only as well.

    Anything I may have overlooked?

    I was handed this lovely flyer while grocery shopping

    I thought the woman handing me this was going to ask for help reaching something, but she was handing this out to everyone.

    Looking for a program to help manage windows on an Ultrawide.

    I recently purchased a 32:9 monitor, and quickly realized I need a program to help snap windows to different positions, other than the default options Windows 11 provides.

    Is there anything recommended I can use for this? I'd like to be able to hold a keybind and snap the windows around with arrow keys if possible.

    Thanks!

    Gojira - From Mars to Sirius in the Mario 64 soundfont

    I found this channel on YouTube a few days ago, I've been listening to his mixes of these albums since.

    They mostly seem to be metal albums, and in a Q&A mentioned he tries to pull albums to mix from comments.
