Nothing too shabby, but still. To run it you need docker, and after that just type...

Hey, I use a Macbook 2020 i5. I installed fedora on it. But my tochpad and keyboard are not working.

Render anything inline. Save sessions and history. Powered by open web standards....

I have a Prometheus builtin one in my Thinkpad and even though the mainboard firmware sucks, the sensor has libfprint support....

Well I’ve joined the “accidentally trashing your system with rm -rf” club! Luckily I didn’t delete my home directory with all the things I care about, but I did delete /boot and /usr, and maybe /var (long story, boils down to me trying to delete non-system directories named those but reflexively adding the slash in front...

I currently use Fedora Kinoite and until Plasma 6 some major bugs will simply not be fixed. “Solved in Plasma 6” is a very common phrase now and that is okay....

Hello, apparently hanging out in Lemmy inadvertently makes you thinking about using Linux. I am planning to install Linux Mint cinnamon on an older laptop, which I want to bring to LAN Parties. From what I read I can just format my C:\ windows disk, install Linux via bootable drive and from what I understand, proton is basically...

Hey guys! Trying to understand what developers actually do to create a yet another distro, or what are the differences between existing distros. Lets say we have ubuntu and fedora. What are the differences? Excluding DE, Installer, theme, installed packages/libs and package manager. They both are FHS compliant, both running...

I need to repair a drive with chkdsk and don’t have access to windows...

Come the next major release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat is officially dropping the Xorg package, whilst it’ll still be available in RHEL 9 until 2032 the countdown has begun, Xorg is on the way out. Are you and your software going to be ready in time....

THE Google ‘News’ (Gulag Noise [1, 2]) mentions of “Linux” diminish again, partly because sites that used to cover GNU/Linux every day suddenly stopped a few weeks ago (our coverage of it had struck a nerve, attracting about 3,000 readers). No need to shame the publisher or anything (it had done a great job until it...

If all the seemingly pointless discussions about which distro is better comes from attachment to a spesific distro and if a distro is just a way to interract with linux than all the discussion about witch distro is better etc. fundementally comes from a a place of love and appreciation for Linux as an OS....

So if I had a cp -v operation fail, is the last file name it printed out the last successful file copy, or is it the failed partially copied file? If you had to ensure all files are copied correctly without overwriting anything, would deleting the last filename that was printed from the destination folder delete the partially...

A few years ago, LXLE was my distro of choice for older hardware....

Are there good Microsoft word alternatives that support Linux (I don’t mind closed source)? Libreoffice is meh and only office is quite good, but are there any better ones? Also, is there a way to install word on Linux using wine? When I do that my laptop just overheats and loses internet connection.

edit: I found the solution...

I’m looking to buy a new laptop. I recently switched to Linux (Fedora) and would like to stay with it (Not necessarily Fedora though)....

Hello friends. I’d like to ask if any of you knows when/if Debian will finally include the nvidia-535 proprietary driver. It’s kind of a pain in the ass to install it manually and keep it updated. Thanks!

eg: typing “linux @l” should search “linux lemmy” and “beatles @mb” should search “beatles musicbrainz”,...

Ive been tryna figure this out all day, Ive read the manual for systemctl and I didnt see anything about switch-root after the initrd target. I did see a –force option, however it didnt do anything. Before the upgrade to version 255, I would use a script or manually mount the partition, and then I would just do like systemctl...

Linux Mint was the distro I chose little less than a year ago when I switched to Linux. Used it with Cinammon at first and then switched to XFCE. It’s been a cool journey and I have def learned a lot....
