Problems I have with Nvidia and Linux is so annoying that I'm considering AMD GPU next. This time when I woke the computer from sleep, #KDE had colors of the rainbow. They did clear up a bit after moving windows, but had to reboot.
I don't know is it because I have old GTX 1070, would newer Nvidia work better with Linux?
I was about to upgrade to RTX 5080, but if Linux support is as poor, it's not good upgrade, given that I play games once a year approximately.

Arvon parviäly, minulla on teille pari kysymystä. Yritän auttaa Linuxiin vaihtamista harkitsevaa yliopisto-opiskelijaa, mutta en ole varma tiedänkö tarpeeksi siihen tänä päivänä liittyvistä erikoistarpeista, eikä hänkään niistä kaikista välttämättä ole tietoinen ennen kuin tulee ongelmia.
Vieläkö esim. Zoom ja Teams toimivat Linuxissa hyvin päivittäisessä käytössä? Onko jotain muuta huomioitavaa, mitä tulee mieleen? Yliopiston VPN?

Hey, what's a good #Linux distro / setup otherwise for a HTPC? #Askfedi
It sits there powered on basically 24/7 and is plugged into only a TV for output. Its job is to torrent stuff, store video files until we want to watch them, and occasionally log in to a streaming service or order pizza via a browser.
Don't care about cataloguing a movie collection but I'm open to exploring a basic media centre app.
Sick of going and rebooting it to apply Windows updates every time I want to watch teev.
Dear "KDE on Linux with systemd" users,
I have a laptop that refuses to open one application at login, although
- the desktop file exists in ~/.config/autostart,
- the desktop file can be double-clicked and starts the application and
- the application can be started from the CLI
I do not find the right system unit (with systemctl --user), so I guess it might break the parsing in the generator that creates the systemd-user-unit from the desktop file.
The system settings (in "Autostart") just show that "it was not stated yet" (or similar, translated from German).
Any ideas how to debug?
OS is Fedora Kinoite 43, the application is OpenCloud Desktop installed via Nix.
#kde #plasma #kde6 #Fedora #systemd #debugging #linux #SystemdUnit
emailed Anker to see if they have any idea about this. @natkr chimed in with a thread, but my problem doesn't seem to be along those lines, unfortunately. I see a lot of odd refresh rates, but none of them work. I also confirmed (since I'm dual booting just in case) that the kvm works properly in windows, so it's not a problem with the laptop's video.

That's my dock/KVM. When I switch it to my mint linux (cinnamon) box, the box can _see_ the monitors, and once in a while, if I reboot with them connected, I can briefly see a flash of a mouse cursor before they go black again, but otherwise they are just receiving no signal.

J’ai des soucis avec mon laptop depuis quelques jours / semaines. Je n’arrive plus à envoyer le contenu de mon écran sur un écran externe.
Jusqu’à maintenant, j’utilisais #wl-mirror (#wl-presenter), mais là ça me sors une erreur :
$ wl-mirror auto [14:13:25]
Couldn't open plugin directory: No such file or directory
No plugins found, falling back on no decorations

Est-ce que quelqu’un peut m’aider ?
Je suis avec #sway sur #Debian .
Das Indie-Game #Outbound bricht schon jetzt Rekorde und steht bei einer Million Menschen auf der Steam-Wunschliste. Eine neue Betaversion bringt neue Features und ein Küstenbiom. Ich hab es unter #Linux und auf dem #SteamDeck ausprobiert. Bin gespannt auf den Release.
... [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
Using #Linux for me means constantly finding barriers I think I can't solve, and then giving up for a day, coming back and finding a solution to that problem just to spend some time and find some other problem. LOL
There are some distros I am more confident to recommend to someone that isn't even a computer newbie like me, but it's hard to hide this uneasiness of knowing that you'll find something bad along the way.

# "Using LibreOffice and other Free software for documents as a lawyer"
I was asked recently about how I get on using LibreOffice for document-related legal work, and I promised to write down some thoughts.
The short answer is that I use a mix of LibreOffice and other FOSS tools, and I’m very positive about it, with no particular concerns.
If you have questions, please do ask!

#KDE Settings panel is so great! Everything underneath one app.
Coming from #Windows, where every setting is scattered here and there. It used to have control panel, now it's awful mess.
In KDE settings everything still even uses same widget toolkit. It's just amazing in consistency!

Day 29 with Nushell: If you use Nushell purely as a CLI shell, it’s pretty awful. For example, to get a directory’s size in kilobytes, you have to run `du . | update physical {|it| ($it.physical | into int) / 1024 }` (63 chars), while in most other shells, it’s simply `du . -k` (7 chars).

De allereerste versie van het "leader"-filmpje. Deze is voor het Engelstalige kanaal (Linux Lorem), zie https://linuxlorem.com/.
Voor de Nederlandse komt er een variant (ander logo).
Doel filmpje: Na introductie even wat energie erin brengen, dan snel door met het daadwerkelijke onderwerp. Vandaar dat hij zo kort mogelijk is. Ik heb geprobeerd hem qua geluid en beeld zo netjes mogelijk te starten en af te bouwen.
Feedback, gedachten, maar ook kritiek erg welkom.
Weer een mooie stap verder: een leader-filmpje gemaakt voor aan het begin van video's. Uiteraard zo kort mogelijk en vooral bedoeld om wat energie te geven aan de video's. Nu nog "even" de juiste jingle erbij vinden..
I'm now convinced immutable/atomic distros do not remove ability to tinker. They just make it safer: Overlay your changes on top of the base. Something goes wrong, remove the overlay, try again!
Edit: I'm not saying everyone should use one, but for my use this is really good.
Open Steinberg: VST3 and ASIO SDKs now have open source licenses. And that's significant for free music and sound tools, plus a promised collaboration with OBS.

Two women at a large mixing desk; one points at the Steinberg software at the screen, with a rack of VST3 plug-ins running atop the DAW. "Oh, look, this will surely now be under a GPLv3 or MIT License!" we imagine her exclaiming.
Mä pystytin elämäni ensimmäisen #wireguard #vpn verkon. Oli kohtuullisen helppoa ja hyvät ohjeet löytyi. Nyt pitäis vaan keksiä miksi tän pystytin, vai teinkö vaan reiän hyökkääjälle josta pääsisi mahdollisesti sisään kotikoneilleni?
Olin silleen ovela ettei tein reiät vaan #IPv6 päälle joten internetin skannerien ei pitäisi ainakaan nii helposti niitä löytää.

After I blew up my old #OpenSuse system on my laptop in many ways I reinstalled it, this time with Leap 16.0 to get more stability.
And, well, I absolutely bloody hate that YaST is gone, I already missed it during setup. Now I once again need to look up how the hell you set things up with /etc/default/grub instead of being done within seconds.
Also what's up with KDE using X11 by default? I wondered where half the options were and why fractional scaling was dysfunctional.

I discovered something mysterious with #mesa #wayland
my dm crashed so i switched back to #gdm, only to find dangling sessions
manually checked all tty and logged out of stray sessions from gui
yet nothing,,
ran `gnome-session` command from tty1 and zoom everything works
wtf now i need know why it works, this way?

#Linux-siirtymä ei nyt oikein menesty, koska jotain on pielessä yliopiston koneen asetuksissa. Näyttää siltä kuin koneessa olisi Schrödingerin sovelluksia: ne näkyvät hauissa, mutta eivät löydy koneelta eivätkä asennu. Myöskään yliopiston uusi VPN ei ollut asentunut, vaikka intran uutinen lupasi, että se olisi tällä päivämäärällä jo asentuneena myös Cubblin kautta.
Please boosts 🙏

I got tired of manually copying binaries to servers, so I built Distronomicon. It automates continuous deployment of artifacts directly from CI and supports private GitHub repositories.
It’s written in Rust and designed for Linux servers with systemd.

So does anyone know a good advice for someone that use docker (moby-engine), that would like to manage selinux label, but without relying on the one that docker give (that modify label of the file.
I would like to secure it properly without actually resorthing to the (not proper) :z and :Z on volumes or label disable flag

Have you used, successfully, a script/tool for converting dovecot configs from 2.3 to 2.4?
If so, could you share a link, please?
I've done one, reasonably simple, config by hand, but I am looking for a tool for a more complicated one.
(I have searched, but found nothing; I'm looking only for first-hand experiences, please.)
Liebe #Linux Bubble, eine kurze Frage. Ich will mir Linux Mint installieren, habe aber gerade keinen USB Stick zur Hand der genug GB hat.
Kann ich auch eine externe Festplatte auf der außer der Bootdateien sonst nix drauf ist nutzen.
Meine Logik sagt, eigentlich dürfte das keinen Unterschied machen....
Asking for some help on Ubuntu. I have three different browsers installed but I cannot select a different default browser in the System/Apps/Default Apps settings. The options box just shows Firefox with no drop down arrow or different choices at all.
The other two I have installed are Vivaldi and Zen, but it's like the OS doesn't know they are there.
Am on 25.10, this was the same situation before updating yesterday though.
