Secret300, in NVIDIA 550 Linux Beta Driver Released With Many Fixes, VR Displays & Better (X)Wayland

I finally bought an AMD card. Never going back to Nvidia

not_amm, in This week in KDE: everything everywhere all at once edition

Does anybody know if there will be more providers or the option to add your own for the Weather widget/app?

I think the first time you are trying to mount the drive and not the partition “sudo mount /dev/sdc /mnt” and on the second and third attempt have the sdc1 right, but need to make a folder under mnt to mount the drive onto. Make a folder like ‘tempdrive’ under /mnt and then try it with this since you said it was an ext4 filesystem. Note, you can name it whatever you want I just picked that as an example:

cd /mnt

sudo mkdir tempdrive

sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/tempdrive

If it doesn’t recognize the filesystem then use -t

sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/tempdrive

And yes, once you get it down, an fstab entry will make this mount every time, but I would use the uuid in the fstab. I have two mounted on a machine like this in my /etc/fstab:

UUID=“6a95603a-2112-4c4d-ad4d-e146e646a74a” /media/largedrive ext4 auto,nofail,noatime,rw,user 0 0

UUID=“3E31-540B” /media/new4tbdrive exfat auto,nofail,noatime,rw,user 0 0

drwankingstein, (edited ) in Can I run a different GPU driver in distrobox ?

You can run different userland drivers but not kernel drivers. Thankfully the kernel drivers are pretty much unified for AMD. to use the proprietary ones, install the appropriate driver in the distrobox container.

Vulkan and Opengl are different drivers so you will need to figure out the flags you need to set appropriately. arch wiki is a food resource for this.

For rocm and stuff make sure your kernel has the necessary bits, this will be distro specific, but I can at least say arch will work fine simply. and fedors too iirc

Your fdisk output shows a single partition of type ee which according to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table is the type for the protective MBR partition shown by MBR tools when looking at GPT partition tables.

Try using gdisk -l instead of show the GPT partition table.

azvasKvklenko, in Zorin OS 17 Has Arrived

So basically Ubuntu-based GNOME-skin OS, advertising GNOME’s new features as their own?

greencactus,

Yeah, I don’t get it either. Like 95% of the stuff they promote is already out there in Fedora for a long time. It isn’t anything special to Zorin.

Is there a text version of this interview?

juli,

I don’t know but I listened to it on a walk

yannic, in Help with external 4TB drive

I have no experience in this specific matter, but you could look up how to switch the sector size from 512 bytes to 4096 and, you know, just do the opposite.

Few years ago I had a collection of maybe fifteen old disks, which I wanted to get rid of, by means of recycling. First I wanted to check the content and then format all so I put them in an external enclosure. It turned out that some disks were unusable. A closer inspection showed that these were all a certain brand and type (Forgot whether it was Seagate or Maxtor or WD). These disks would probably still do fine in a desktop or server computer (Which I no longer had at home) but not with the external enclosure. Perhaps your enclosure is the bottleneck here as well.

Dariusmiles2123, in Distro for 2013 iMac

Fedora on a 2012 MacBook Pro works perfectly fine. The only thing not working out of the box was the WiFi but it was really easy to solve.

shotgun_crab, in This week in KDE: everything everywhere all at once edition

The wobbly windows fix is appreciated

jlarex, in Breaking Windows to let the penguin in...

Good choice with Mint, I think its the best distro for people transitioning from Windows.

Plasma 6 seems to be fixing a lot of the issues I currently have with Plasma - bugs, inconsistency, general jank. Looking forward to its release so I can give it another go

bushvin, in [Solved] Had a power outage while updating my fedora system, and now dnf has file conflicts. Is it recoverable?

dnf upgradeAnd package-cleanup --cleandupesShould have fixed it.
