A bit late to the party, but especially for an older machine I’ll take Openbox any day. I still have some low range 2015 laptops running just fine where something like KDE would choke them up completely.
I typically never downvote anyone. I’ll up upvote a post if it’s saying what I was already going to say.
I don’t even check vote counts, not my own nor others. I’m just here to share opinions, others and mine.
I couldn’t give a dime as to whether people up or downvote me.
I don’t think it’s a healthy system. And I agree, as Linux users we should support community and different opinions, not squash them. The disagreements can often lead to a better solution for all.
Same here. Does not make a difference, and it is amazing that people’s egos are hurt or happy about it somehow. But upvotes and downvotes is what drives all other social media: egos want more likes, more subscribes, more “friends”, they want that tribal approval. I find the fediverse to be less infected with FOMO. Drama doesn’t go long around here, doesn’t stick because there are no stupid algorithms feeding more FUD. I am starting to believe that this is where the top 1% of the social media hang out and chill. Here there are people that stick around for interesting conversations as opposed to “look at me”.
Maybe this functionality was replaced by the next thing?
<span style="color:#323232;">Automatic root filesystem soft-reboot: systemctl automatically reboots into a new root filesystem located at /run/nextroot/.
</span>
I just gave it a try on my system and it worked just like it did before! Ill have to change my scripts to mount to /run/nextroot instead of /mnt, but i am very relieved that it is still possible. I was having trouble with it all morning. Thank you so much for your reply! It is much appreciated!
Copying back the files to the right partition/directory works, but if you didn’t backup the owner and permissions for each file it’s gonna be a pain to restore those.
After reinstalling, you can compare your new system with your backup to see what changes/configs you had made
fedora is usually more updated(newer packages and newer kernel) and it uses zram, ubuntu use swap from default, and ubuntu push snap, fedora, like others, come with flatpak pre-installed
Just wondering if there could be a way to “simulate”, lets say ubuntu on fedora.
the timer has no idea if it was triggered during last boot. It only has the context of “this” boot, so it will do it right after a reboot and set a timer to start the service again after a week of uptime.
So if you reboot every day, it will trigger the service every day, even though you set it to weekly in the timer.
So it’s up to your .service file to determine if it has been run this week or not.
So, does this affect dual boot systems, if e.g. Windows is compromised, now that malware in the efi partition can compromise the Linux system next time it boots? Yikes!
I suppose in principle malware from one OS can attack the other anyway, even if the other is fully encrypted and/or the first OS doesn’t have drivers for the second’s filesystems: because malware can install said drivers and attack at least the bootloader - though that night have been protected by secure boot if it weren’t for this new exploit?
Yes, it can execute code regardless of OS installed because it persists on the Mainboard and loads before any OS, making it possible to inject code into any OS.
