I am using the Bash on Ubuntu on Windows, the way to run bash on Windows 10. I have the Creators update installed and the Ubuntu version is 16.04. I was playing recently with things as npm, node.js and Docker and for docker I found it is possible to install it and run it in windows and just use the client part from bash, calling directly the docker.exe file from Windows's Program Files files folder. I just update my path variable to include the path to docker as PATH=$PATH:~/mnt/e/Program\ Files/Docker/ (put in .bashrc) and then I am able to run docker from bash calling docker.exe . But hey

After successfully installing Docker in WSL, if I run standard Docker commands, I get connection errors. Runing with sudo or not yields the same result in all examples. root@SUR002731165154:~# sudo docker info Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running? root@SUR002731165154:~# sudo docker version Client: Version: 1.13.1 API version: 1.26 Go version: go1.7.5 Git commit: 092cba3 Built: Wed Feb 8 06:42:29 2017 OS/Arch: linux/amd64 Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock.

I have no files or paths about usb on dev/ When I plug in a flash disk, nothing appears on dev/ or mnt/ or media/ about it. sudo lsusb returns: unable to initialize libusb: -99 What should i do to enable usb access on bash? Good news, it is now possible to mount USB media (including FAT formated) and network shares with drvfs on Windows 10: Mount removable media: (e.g. D:) $ sudo mkdir /mnt/d $ sudo mount -t drvfs D: /mnt/d To safely unmount $ sudo umount /mnt/d You can also mount network shares without smbfs: $ sudo mount -t drvfs '\\server\share' /mnt/share You need at least Build 16176 so

So it seems on ubuntu for windows (windows subsystem for linux) people are suggesting we need to use Agg backend and just save images, not show plots. import matplotlib matplotlib.use('Agg') # no UI backend import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np t = np.arange(0.0, 2.0, 0.01) s = 1 + np.sin(2*np.pi*t) plt.plot(t, s) plt.title('About as simple as it gets, folks') #plt.show() plt.savefig("matplotlib.png") #savefig, don't show How could we get it to where plt.show() would actually show us an image? My current option is to override plot.show() to instead just savefig a plot-148123456

How to execute a copy paste operation from Windows 10 to the Bash on Ubuntu on Windows environment? I tried the following: ctrl + shift + v right click to paste Any suggestions? Update 2019/04/16: It seems copy/paste is now officially supported in Windows build >= 17643. Take a look at Rich Turner's answer . This can be enabled through the same settings menu described below by clicking the checkbox next to "Use Ctrl+Shift+C/V as Copy/Paste". Another solution would be to enable "QuickEdit Mode" and then you can paste by right-clicking in the terminal. To enable QuickEdit Mode, right-click on

Currently Visual Studio Code does not support debugging inside windows. How to setup vscode to use gcc/gdb from bash on windows?

First, you have to get sshd running on port 2020. To do this, edit /etc/ssh/sshd

When I installed WSL for my computer I was very excited to have a more natively supported Linux system rather than using VirtualBox . However I get this error when I try to run it. Is there a reason why?
