Your chances are pretty good if you copy them back - ultimately, that’s what the restoration function of backup software does.
As for ownership of the directories and files, that’s a bit trickier and might involve some trial and error. root:root is a safe bet for most of it, but there is a lot of stuff in /var that is owned by system accounts.
What distro are you running? That’ll help figure it out.
I’m running Fedora 39 KDE. I think I’m going to see what the file metadata of my other Fedora systems look like and try to replicate that. Worst case I just reinstall. At this point I’m a little curious how the system will react.
I hope this isn’t going to be the default. I know, the average granny might prefer to have a BSOD with a QR code, but I think a lot of the people who are more tech-savvy, like me, would prefer to see log messages when booting because then you could see which service failed and why or why it’s all of a sudden taking so long to boot. That’s also why I choose not to have a splash screen when booting.
Anyways, this BSOD thing doesn’t apply to me because I use Gentoo with OpenRC.
I think you can already do this in one shortcuts, not sure of any standalone program that does, if definably accidentally bond like Ctrl+d, Ctrl+s to screenshot before
I don’t think so, but you should be able to create an install usb, same as for linux, boot into that, and access recovery tools. From there, you can definitely run chkdsk, done it before though I don’t recall every step.
For those who don’t know, shift+F10 to bring up a command prompt when using a windows install image. Can do it when it starts asking you for stuff. I know the chkdsk tools and manage-bde (the bitlocker cli) are avaliable there at least.
Does anyone have one of these that could confirm if that’s realistic? I’ve seen many laptops with similar specs and claims that come out to significantly lower battery life unless you do nothing but stare at an empty desktop.
The optimization might just be the rather large battery. Usually laptops with U-series processors have 40-60Eh batteries, the spec sheet shows a 73Wh battery in there.
Where the Lemur Pro really shines is battery life. System76 claims 14 hours, and I managed 11 hours in our battery drain test (looping a 1080p video). In real-world use, I frequently eked out over 13 hours. That’s off the charts better than any other Linux laptop I’ve tested recently.
