[ SOLVED ] WoeUSB getting stuck at Github download on Ubuntu 20.10

Image
If you have been trying to create a Windows 10 bootable USB stick on Ubuntu, using the popular WoeUSB tool, chances are you are getting stuck at downloading uefi-ntfs.img from github.  https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/raw/master/res/uefi/uefi-ntfs.img Resolving github.com (github.com)... 64:ff9b::8c52:7004, 140.82.114.4 Connecting to github.com (github.com)|64:ff9b::8c52:7004|:443...  This time-out error is due to an IP issue with the way the Wget command is trying to get the uefi-ntfs.img file from Github.  "wget --directory-prefix="${download_directory}" https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/raw/master/res/uefi/uefi-ntfs.img"  To fix this, you can just add a -4 after the wget so that wget resolves the GitHub address properly. However, since you can't manually change this command when running the WoeUSB tool ( unless you go into the source file and then make a new version of WoeUSB ), we will have to find another way. Easy Fix - Use the alternate  WoeUSB-ng sof...

[ Solved ] Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading.

Image
Ubuntu Version 20.10 Groovy Gorilla is now available to download . You can also upgrade your existing 20.04 to the latest Ubuntu version. I tried to upgrade my system to the latest version and ran into an error when I tried executing the update-manager -d command. It showed a "Please install all available updates for your release before upgrading." error in the command line even though the update manager showed there are no new updates. I was able to fix it after trying a few things. Here is what I did. First, run the command " sudo apt-get upgrade " and install all updates ( if any ). Then go to Update Manager Settings aka Software & updates, and select the Other Software tab. You will see a lot of repository addresses in there. Scroll down and untick all the manually added third party repositories and then close it.  Run the update-manager -d command again and you will probably be presented with some updates yet to be installed. Install the remaining updates (...

[ FIX ] Ubuntu 20.04 Bluetooth doesn't Turn On

I have been using a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard for a while now with my Ubuntu 20.04. Everything worked well without any issues until one day the operating system refused to turn on the Bluetooth. I could toggle Bluetooth On button from the Settings, but it did nothing.  After spending some time Google Searching why my Bluetooth started not working all of a sudden, and after trying a variety of commands to troubleshoot the problem, I finally found a working fix for this issue. Open a Terminal ( Ctrl + Alt + T )  and enter below commands one after another.  sudo rmmod btusb sudo modprobe btusb That's it. Your Bluetooth issue would be now solved.  I can guarantee you this problem is going to pop-up every now and then. So copy the above commands to a text file for future uses. Sometimes, even after entering above commands the bluetooth would refuse to turn on. In such cases, just Suspend the system and then wake up it again and check.
