dario, in What's your current favorite distro that isn't Arch, Debian or Fedora?

Parabola GNU/Linux-libre.

BlanK0, in Distro for POS

Maybe debian or fedora, something that isn’t too advanced

Cool, TTS on Linux is in a very rough spot at the moment

Vitaly, in When Windows 10 dies, I am going to jump ship over to Linux. Which version would you recommend for someone with zero prior experience with Linux? **Edit: Linux Mint it shall be.**
@Vitaly@feddit.uk avatar

Pop OS is great because of up to date kernel and drivers, and they even have a specific version created for nvidia gpus, on disadvantage is that gnome version is a bit old, but its very stable at least

NotATurtle, in Could we add "Distrochooser" to the sidebar?

It recommends obviously wrong choices like Tails

onlinepersona,

wat? got a screenshot or a link to the result?

NotATurtle,

onlinepersona,

No matter what I choose, I have to scroll literally to at least half or the end of the page to see Tails. Congrats on finding it in the list, I guess?

ursakhiin,

I just took it favoring a daily driver for gaming and every distro it gave had either didn’t work, isn’t optimized for, or requires additional config for gaming.

Octagon9561, in When Windows 10 dies, I am going to jump ship over to Linux. Which version would you recommend for someone with zero prior experience with Linux? **Edit: Linux Mint it shall be.**

Fedora’s my favorite. It’s also the most secure without going straight to QubesOS, which is not beginner friendly.

BlueDepth9279,

Just switched to Fedora after bouncing between Ubuntu and Manjaro. Really digging Fedora and kicking myself for waiting so long to try it out.

joojmachine, in The Star Labs StarBook is Qubes-Certified!

that’s great, but is it forklift certified?

Not an arch user, but it’s possible they moved dbus to a user scoped unit now. Might be possible to start it like this (or something similar)


<span style="color:#323232;">systemctl —user start dbus.service
</span>
wmassingham, in What's your experiences with Debian and Rocky as a homeserver OS?

I’ve been using Alma for a while and been happy with it. Like RHEL types, it’s slightly behind on versioning, but that’s by design.

It’s mentioned in the announcements.

We are making dbus-broker our default implementation of D-Bus, for improved performance, reliability and integration with systemd.

For the foreseeable future we will still support the use of dbus-daemon, the previous implementation. Pacman will ask you whether to install dbus-broker-units or dbus-daemon-units. We recommend picking the default.

For a more detailed rationale, please see our RFC 25.

archlinux.org/…/making-dbus-broker-our-default-d-…

Though it doesn’t say you really need to take any action but maybe it’s a start for something to look into.

t_378,

If you check out the mailing list archives there is some active discussion about dbus-broker as well.

simple, in In-progress COSMIC apps: terminal, file manager, text editor, and settings

Between this and KDE 6, it’s going to be a great year for the Linux desktop experience.

PanArab, in Some of y'all need to see this and drop the superiority complex...

That’s nothing! Darwin is on version 23.

SpaceNoodle, in Is it possible to isolate which GUI programs are seem by a screensharing program in xorg or wayland ?

I almost never share an entire screen, but rather single application windows; when I absolutely must share visual information from multiple applications simultaneously, I create a separate virtual desktop for presenting. Is this not possible?

shadowintheday2, (edited )

I know this is possible, but it makes switching different windows a chore. Since I have GUI programs running under different users, I would want the screensharing program to not even be aware that other user’s GUI programs are in the screen

SpaceNoodle,

How is it a chore?

throwawayish, in The Star Labs StarBook is Qubes-Certified!

Oh wow! This is excellent news! I hope they’ll also provide other privacy/security related features like Heads, the removal of the camera and/or microphone modules, pre-installed privacy screen, tamper-evident screws and packaging.

library_napper, (edited )
@library_napper@monyet.cc avatar

It says it has coreboot pre installed. I assume therefore its not difficult to flash Heads, which is based on coreboot?

throwawayish,

Honestly, I don’t know if that’s the case; I always got scared whenever I saw the prerequisites for Heads in combination with the strict list of supported hardware. FWIW, the NV41 that’s used for enabling Heads on NovaCustom’s device is included in the short list of supported hardware for Heads, while -unfortunately- the same doesn’t apply to the StarBook. I would love to be proven wrong though!

gerdesj, in Some of y'all need to see this and drop the superiority complex...

My phone is on 23. Nextcloud is on 27.

I’m Arch and so is my wife (actually) and it doesn’t have a version. We just roll … and today my dongled, wireless mouse has stopped moving. The buttons still work and my laptop touchpad works fine.

wtf!

Limit,

They make a pill for that…
