Are media codecs hard to install on Fedora? I haven’t daily driven Fedora in a while, but last I remember it was one of the top-level categories in GNOME Software. Click it then install all the things. Although I suppose if the user didn’t know what a media codec is that wouldn’t help them very much
I started on Ubuntu if I recall correctly, then made the jump to Fedora at some point. I think Manjaro was in there too? That was my first exposure to KDE Plasma
At some point I installed Arch in a VM and then I was hooked. These days I daily drive Arch with Hyprland (apps and whatnot provided by Plasma)
Of course. I troubleshot a similar issue for a while. Finally found the toggle in BIOS and felt a bit dumb
Make sure power management is properly configured on the Nvidia card.
I had this exact issue on an MSI motherboard. What ended up being the fix for me was changing the “Wake Up Event By” toggle in my UEFI. It was set to “BIOS”. Changing it to “OS” immediately fixed all the issues I was having with suspend
Is the GSP firmware included in linux-firmware yet?
Fair enough
Keychron is very expensive (you’re paying extra for the “slickness” factor of the board in my opinion), but so far the product is quality.
The optical switch has very linear travel. If you prefer a more tactile feel, the other option for switch might work a little better
Command suggestions can be provided by the shell too for what it’s worth. fish ships with autosuggestion and autocompletion. For zsh, you need a separate plugin (but it’s well worth it)
journalctl -b -1 should get you logs from the last boot
It is. lemmy.world was moved behind Cloudflare after the DDoS attacks a while back
This is really great info! I never knew Multipass existed, thanks for sharing.
For macOS, Homebrew can be used to selectively replace certain parts of the coreutils with the GNU versions
Edit: On reviewing the script you mentioned, that’s exactly what it does. It uses Homebrew to replace all the coreutils in one go
+1 for Rider. It’s very good, although you do have to pay JetBrains for a license to use it. The Early Access Program gets you free versions of the software
Honestly same. I haven’t looked at GNOME in a while, there’s some really good improvements in GNOME 45
If it’s a ZOTAC card it might just click when the fans start and stop. My ZOTAC 3060 makes a click when the fans start and stop. It’s a good way to know when my PC wakes itself up lol
You may not have to do a disk clone to replicate your setup. Have you used Git before?
Configuration for most packages is stored under your home folder in a directory called “.config” (the . at the front makes the folder hidden). Taking this folder and putting it on your other systems should replicate most of your setup. (Some other packages, like bash or zsh, will place configuration information directly under your home folder. Make sure you transfer those files and folders too)
It depends.
My personal servers are a mix of the two. I have a Synology NAS that I manage through a web-based GUI. Sometimes I’ll dip into command line via SSH, but not very often.
I have two more lower-power Linux servers that I manage through command-line primarily. They don’t have many system resources, so I want them to have as much available as possible to serve things.
Windows servers I use GUI management most of the time
It does, but sometimes if the system is really out of date I have to update arch-keyring before the rest of the packages
Yeah. I agree with ya there, Red Hat screwed over Alma and Rocky with that decision. I can see the utility of those two distros for testing before committing to RHEL.
Plus, if Oracle has room to try to be the “good guys”, you’ve really screwed up
Oh that’s a shame. Yeah, then I’m right with you, that’s not beginner friendly
