linux

I’m on debian 11, this error doesn’t show up every time, but once it appear I need more that one reboot and it will fix automatically without doing nothing, don’t know the reason why (just read that can be kernel dependent). What I want to avoid is that maybe it’s just a warning of somethink that will cause a pc break in...

One for those running #ZFS on #Linux systems. I realise that you can’t have hibernate aka suspend to disk on a swap in the encrypted zpool but if you don’t use hibernation then is it OK to use swap using the likes of the command example below to set it up in the encrypted pool?...

I’m visiting my parents for the holidays and convinced them to let me switch them to Linux....

In collaboration with Polar Signals we have committed that beginning with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, our GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) package will enable frame pointers by default for 64-bit platforms. All packages in Ubuntu, with very few exceptions, will be rebuilt with frame pointers enabled, making them easier to profile and...

Clothing, accessories, etc. I remember back then buying hoodies from the Canonical Store, but they are not available anymore....

While cutting edge testing distribution such as Fedora are going Wayland only and the proponents of such move say that this push is required to shake things out. I would like to highlight some of the things which are not there yet on the graphic tablet configuration front on plasma wayland. Although the basic support for the...

Beware of what it’ll do to your computer!

Fedora WS. I want to continue using an older version of Oobabooga Textgen WebUI, but the 6.6 kernel build of the Nvidia open source module with the x86 UEFI shim breaks compatibility with one of the Python *Blas packages....

For me it must be kde plasma 6 and the wayland driver for wine....

Yesterday I made a post about PaperWM which is a scrollable tiling window manager extension for GNOME. Today, I had "lookup ‘window always on top’ " on my to do list for boring days. I couldn’t find anything and after 2 minutes I wondered why I am still searching for it because with the tiling window manager, I do not need...

Sorry if this community isn’t the right place to ask — I got a USB webcam that works great in Teams, but lags tremendously (3-4 seconds) in Zoom. I doubt the Zoom app is introducing that lag on its own, but how would I troubleshoot this?...

Hey, I’ve recently designed a Poster about the FHS since I often forget where I should place or find things. Do you have any feedback how to make it better?...

Hi, I'm not the most expert user, but I've been messing with my latest linux install for a few months. I costumized the look of the GRUB, but whenever the kernel gets updated and the grub.cfg gets regenerated, the classes of two entries do not generate (efi and submenu), leaving the entries with no icons (which are determined by...

I don’t need a world clock, yet it’s always there in the drop down notification area

I am using fedora silverblue and in the native version of Firefox, the picture in picture window does not have always on top enabled. Is there anyway to change a setting such that always on top is enabled by default. I know it is supported on gnome+fedora because the flatpak version(I downloaded to test this behaviour) has this...

Hey people! To save myself a lot of searching, I would love to hear your tips on how to use a modern, secure immutable Fedora+Hyprland setup with all the regular stuff working....

Hi, I’ve got an old netbook from Samsung that has an old Intel Atom CPU (Intel Atom N455 1.66 GHz). I installed Arch on it and am now thinking of a suitable window manager. I tried Hyprland (kinda expecting it to not work really) whick didn’t start at all. Before I had Debian with Gnome, which technically worked, but...
