As I understand this article ( linuxconfig.org/how-to-monitor-network-activity-o… ), you can disable firewall and run “sudo netstat -tulpen” to get a list of all connections and find which ports need to be forwarded.
Added “mdns” service to allowed list for public zone, still get the SANE error. (Previously added 5353 UDP per another suggestion – sounds like this is the port for mDNS)
Sadly there is no way around it. The mentioned alternatives like regolith have already been mentioned. There is also some smaller distros with prepared twm configs, but I can’t recommend it. Because if you want to customize it, you will have a hard time finding the right ways to do it.
Added some info to the post. Firewall is blocking 3289 UDP from my printer, so I added 3289 UDP to open ports for “home”, “public”, and “internal” zones. However, I’m still seeing filter_IN_public_REJECT entries in dmesg, so it seems the firewall is still blocking these. Is there a different way I should be telling it to allow requests on this port?
Firewall also allows mdns service (again, in “home”, “public”, and “internal” zones), but I also see entries like this:
Lspci should list all your pci devices, one of which will be your WiFi adapter. Confirm its make and if it requires a kernel module. I would bet it’s a broadcom
I have a framework laptop and endeavour os with gnome de. I’ve had no problems with it. I mainly use it for dev work and web browsing. I enabled gnome muli-gesture (basically the same gestures on a Mac trackpad). I’ve had no problems with that either.
If I would not get so many old computing devices that fulfill my needs (I don’t game on PC/Linux) I guess I’d buy one of those. I live in Switzerland and having a german company for support would be superior to me. And I heard that build quality should be great 😇 😂I guess I’d really like to have one, but as I said, for my needs, my macbookpro5,3 running arch does the job.
Agreed. Windows’ HDR support is rough. It’s fine for gaming, but you can’t display SDR and HDR content together like MacOS. I think that’s why Apple holds a big part of the market for creatives.
The reason why I gave Linux a serious look was due to how lightweight it can be and how it can make crappy hardware run fast.
It’s like taking a 0.66L 3-cylinder engine from a big SUV (Windows) to a motorcycle (lightweight Linux distro). And then it does 0-60 in under 4 seconds (the system runs super fast).
Don’t use Tiny Core Linux. The wiki is a mess of articles for two different versions, neither of which is the current one. Sign-up to the forum has been broken for years and the owner seems to like it that way because the same happened when he created Damn Small Linux.
