Hey, my max memory speed is only 1075mhz. I know that that my gpu the 6800xt can be tuned to a higher speed. Because i used Amd adrenalin on windows in the past. How can I increase my max memory mhz? I use fedora as my os....

I use Linux for quite a while and would like to gather some security advice, well known and lesser known....

I recently became interested in using operating systems or software in the most vanilla way possible!! Without changing anything, just getting new files and other stuff. I’ve changed a lot of things from Ubuntu (for example uninstalling Rhythmbox and getting VLC) and I honestly want all the Ubuntu GNOME vanilla software back,...

You’re about to take your first steps in the wonderful world of Linux, but you’re overwhelmed by the amount of choices? Welcome to this (I hope) very simple guide :)...

I’ve been running Linux Mint under XFCE for a while now and I am growing tired of it. I originally had cinnamon which I did not really like so I decided to go with XFCE and customize it to my liking....

Any one here has any experience with teaching 8 to 12 years old kids Linux?

I use KDE. Some use GNOME. Most other options are probably to be left out as X11 is unsafe....

common complaint about movie audio is ‘the speech is too quiet and the action is too loud’. this can be resolved with dynamic range compression or normalization. ffmpeg provides a normalization filter called dynaudnorm which u can use in mpv via --af=“dynaudnorm”.

Notes...

Fixed by using grub....

I have an Acer XV340CKP monitor connected via Display Port to my GPU. I also have a old LG W2253TQ that I use as a secondary display. It only has a DVI and VGA port. I have a DVI-DVI cable together with a DVI-Display Port converter to connect to my GPU, which is an Asus RX6900XT. I am running Nobara 38....

Don’t get me wrong. Hyprland is great. I like it a lot. It looks fresh, it’s easy to configure and the keybindings are super easy to implement, but it’s also very barebones. Most of the functionality expected from a DE come from external software. Be it a top bar, an app launcher, a notification daemon or anything else....

Hey guys I’m currently working on a presentation about accessibility and I noticed that Linux seams not to have any systemwide subtitle support like windows 11 and MacOs(beta feature). Does anyone of you know a project that can do that or is there simply no solution for this problem.

I just upgraded my nvidia driver and kernel on tumbleweed and now my main monitor can’t go to 240hz without losing input. Am I the only one? It works fine on 60 and could work perfectly on 240hz before the update

I’m trying to mount my Synology NAS on a Raspberry Pi 4 with Raspian. I works when I do it the following command:...

I have reinstalled appindicators and I love them. Can I autostart apps to the tray?...

I need to upgrade my laptop and one of the things I’m looking for is repairability/upgradability. I’ve been told thinkpads are good in this respect, how true is that? In terms of replacing batteries and memory, at least. I’m also looking at the frameworks, but those black friday deals are looking alright at lenovo....

prefer KDE. Currently testing Nitrux. Any other options

I installed endeavourOS 2 days ago and then, the next day, there was a newnrelease of endeavourOS. It’s supposed to have better encryption. Is it possible to upgrade encryption on Linux? An unrelated question: is it possible to change the password of an encrypted partition? I’m a beginner, so please explain your magical...

I am trying to get Outer Wilds running on my Debian machine, and the “running” itself was a breeze. It runs perfectly on Lutris. But somehow my controller doesn’t communicate with the game. I did check if it is being picked up at all, and using the jstest-gtk tool, I could see that every input is being registered. Same...

Title. Long,short story: creating or editing files with nano as my non-root user gives (the file) elevated privileges, like I have ran it w/ sudo or as root. And the (only) “security hole” that I can think of is a nextdns docker container running as root. That aside, its very “overkill” security-wise (cap_drop=ALL,...

I have a laptop eith sata and a nvme drive. I installed a few operating systems and I decided on Mint for Sata. Installed it copied data from Nvme drive since I was using it as primary. I installed Nobara on nvme and it worked flawless until a few moments ago. Reboted and Mint is gone from boot options. Tried to add it but...

Hey guys, I’ve been running Mint on my home computer for a little while now and I’m having a great time, however there’s one behaviour from Windows I’m missing. When you hit win + arrows to snap the currently focussed window to the left or right half of the screen, windows will present a dialogue to select a companion...

This morning it was working, and while it was turning off it was taking way too long and I forced-shut it off (hold power button), so afterwards when I would turn it on this would happen, I think that has to do with the problem....

what if I, for example, had a job in Google and I liked Linux so much I install Ubuntu on my Chromebook, would that be illegal/send me to prison?? Or, if I had the job, would I be kicked?? I like Chromebooks because they are so smol and nice. But I don’t know if it’s legal to install a Linux distro on it. Thank you!!
