Antix linux is a very begginer friendly distro with very light specs

Ooops , (edited ) in boot order trouble with dual boot Windows/EndeavorOS/Debian
@Ooops@feddit.org avatar

Dual booting with Windows is always a pain, because Windows likes to nuke and replace your boot menu. The safest bet is keep Windows strictly separated: You create a 2nd efi system partition on your second drive with linux, use a boot loader there and then set everything up to start that as default. And then you configure the boot loader to chainload windows from it’s own ESP on disk one. This way Windows is oblivious about linux systems it might try to damage. And you can then set the boot loader menu to a default or to default to the last system booted. (2 separate ESPs on on disk might work, but that is not supported by UEFI, so it depends on your hardware’s implementation if they are recognized or if it just stops after having found the first…).

I would assume what you did was install the Linux boot loader (efi file) as the default like removable drives do (so grub’s efi file installed as esp/EFI/BOOT/BOOT64.efi which is the default for removably drives to take priority; done via grub-install with the --removable flag, some installations might use this by default…)

IrritableOcelot , in How SUSE Is Replacing Red Hat as the Linux and Open Source Enterprise Standard-Bearer

To be honest, their demand that OpenSUSE rebrand left a bad taste in my mouth. I get the logic behind it, but the time for that passed a long time ago (probably about 15 years ago).

narc0tic_bird , in GNOME vs KDE Plasma in 2024: which one is better for Linux beginners?

Certainly Plasma if you’re coming from Windows, unless we’re considering pre-customized GNOME variants like for example Ubuntu uses.

Sure, KDE can be more complex in terms of configuration and customizability, but the default configuration is already good for most users.

Beginners using vanilla GNOME will quickly miss features like a minimize button and certainly tray icons.

This was the distro that introduced me to linux, followed by raspbian. Brings so much memories.

There’s nothing to say about this. Just revel in memories, enjoy the moment, and upvote.

Damn.

I miss lovely, earthy, warm, friendly chocolatey Brownbuntu.

I always felt purplebuntu was a bit vile.

Another option is to change your terminal color profile. Here’s what the default looks like on Kitty’s Misterioso theme:

imo more tolerable than the default colors, and it applies to other terminal apps too.

To preview themes: kitty +kitten themes

Please don’t use “rape” as a casual negative verb, there are better, more accurate words to use that don’t needlessly reference SA.

hayk OP ,

i really apologize if the use of that word was perceived as offensive, that was obviously not my intent. i’m usually quite straightforward in picking words (i come from a completely different culture, where sexual assaults are extremely uncommon).

PS. for the context of others reading this comment, the original title of this post was: “nmtui that does not rape your eyes.”

sgibson5150 , in NVIDIA Transitions Fully Towards Open-Source GPU Kernel Modules. Keep in mind that the drivers are still proprietary.

Forgive the stupid question, but what does this mean, exactly? Does it mean Nvidia support on par with that for AMD? Will this enable a release of Bazzite that supports Steam Gaming Mode for Nvidia cards?
