Hi, out of no where when I boot into my tumbleweed installation (secure boot, uefi), it goes straight to grub rescue, no error messages....

I am about to setup Unraid for the first time, have got the USB and Lisence ready, but watching a bunch of videoes before I dip my feet in. I read and heard that Unraid runs only on the ram, which brings me to the question: My server only has 16GB of ram, whilst my desktop has 48GB of ram, so should I transfer some of my...

ser*, and said non-root user being “nonexistant” (i.e set via ENV)? Can such container -STILL- be exploited/breached through malicious means? Forgot to mention that its a DOCKER container @ title, but there you have it. Just curious....

I’m trying to connect a university ipad (air, usb 3 type c, not tb or lightning) to my laptop (Framework laptop, intel 12th gen) running Fedora workstation 39. On Windows, I used a nifty app called Duet Display. I just used a usb-c cable to plug the ipad into the laptop, launched the app on both devices, and windows would see...

It’s possible to inhibit the display turn off in kde using ``kde-inhibit --power --screenSaver ``` However, I want to inhibit the display turning off only when playing media (either by spotify or a browser), and let it sleep as usual when not playing media....

This morning it was working, and while it was turning off it was taking way too long and I forced-shut it off (hold power button), so afterwards when I would turn it on this would happen, I think that has to do with the problem....

I’ll need to mirror print stuff regularly (flip across the vertical axis), and I’m trying to make the process convenient....

If your GNOME Shell went FUBAR and you can’t reach a terminal from it to issue gnome-shell --replace(apparently this is broken since 3.30), and Alt+F2 doesn’t work, you can use the following in another TTY or via SSH:...

Do you use any web ui’s for your Linux server? I’m comfortable managing my server using the command line, but I also want a graphical interface that shows an overview of what is running on the server, the way the resources are being used what containers are running and so on. Also file download uploads would be great to...

Hi . i am forced to use microsft teams but i see that desktop app was discontinued . what are the alternatives ?

Hey fellow Linux enthusiasts! I’m curious to know if any of you use a less popular, obscure or exotic Linux distribution. What motivated you to choose that distribution over the more mainstream ones? I’d love to hear about your experiences and any unique features or benefits that drew you to your chosen distribution.

Title. Mainly asking for the library side, but PC cafe is also interesting to ask about....

Despite being a heavy cell phone user for more than 25 years, it only recently occurred to me that vertical navigation on most phones is inverted when compared to traditional computers. You swipe down to navigate upward, and up to navigate downward. I recently spent time using a MacBook, which apparently defaults to this...

I recently built a new pc and since I switched from Windows to Lunux (Kubuntu) I got an amd gpu (6700 XT). Because people told me it is less of a hassle than Nvidia. It works fine out of the box, but the choice of drivers confuse me. For gaming is the default amdgpu good enough? Is amdgpu-pro the same as the official Radeon...

Now, I really like Wayland, and it’s definitely better than the mess that is X11...

Hi,...

So I got a stream deck recently and installed boatswain. It works fine except it cannot access any apps which actually show in the application menu. It is only available as a flatpak so that could be it

Like in the title. Some way of sync to Android would be nice.

I just found the gnome-translate-indicator which is great! I click on the button in the top panel and then I can lookup any word. It’s only one way but that’s not a big problem for me as I rarely translate to English, mostly from....
