[ubuntu-uk] deja dup back on encrypted drive

[Ben Davies]

Hi,

I'm trying to use deja dup to backup my system to an encrypted disk. I'm 
specifying the storage location as /Backups/[computer name]


I'm selecting my home folder as the location to backup.

Deja Dup gui is returning the following error:

InvalidBackendURL: missing // - relative paths not supported for scheme 
invalid: invalid://


Backing up to an unencrypted disk works fine.

I see someone has posted a similar problem on askubuntu, with no 
solutions offered.


Any help to resolve this would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Ben

[ubuntu-uk] ubuntu 20.04 freezing at startup

[Ben Davies]

Hi,

I have installed Ubuntu 20.04 on a Dell Latitude 5500. I changed the 
BIOS settings to turn off RAID support as this was a prequisite for 
installing Ubuntu. I also shrank the Windows 10 partition, in Windows 
10, and installed Ubuntu to the larger parition using a usb thumb drive.


I've been using it without problems for about 4 weeks. However, in the 
last 2 weeks it has started to stall at the boot screen where Ubuntu is 
highlited and there is the option to select Windows boot manager and a 
few other options. Up until today it has stalled every other day, but 
the boots normally after a hard restart. However, today it stalled after 
three restarts in row, then booted normally on the fourth attempt.


I reset the BIOS after the second time it stalled, but it stallled a 
third time the booted normally.


I wonder if someone would be able to offer me some support in resolving 
this?


Best Wishes,

Ben
