Yakuake as it’s just one button, F12, away. I do what I need and puff it’s gone.

pnutzh4x0r , in Q: Gnu Make 4.4 on Ubuntu LTS (22.04 and 20.04)
@pnutzh4x0r@lemmy.ndlug.org avatar

Is there a reason for using Travis instead of GitHub’s built-in CI system?

With the GitHub CI system, you can specify your own container image which could have GNU Make 4.4 already pre-installed (you build it once and then re-use it).

RE Travis: I feel quite comfortable and happy w/ Travis already. Additionally, I want to keep my reliance on github minimal. The only reason I’m using it is that it is where things are searched for and found by fellow programmers :-)

RE Container: My home machine is running Tumbleweed which’s had Gnu Make 4.4 for a few months now already. I was trying to make the pipeline behave as closely as possible to the user’s machine who may not have that version installed. Otherwise as you and @sugar_in_your_tea mentioned, I could pack everything I’d need in a container.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

You’d just use the container for testing other Make versions. If your users use Ubuntu, run your tests with an Ubuntu docker image. You can run several versions that way with minimal effort.

I don’t know much about Travis, but it’s pretty easy to set that up with Jenkins.

bahmanm OP ,
@bahmanm@lemmy.ml avatar

That’s pretty much what I ended up doing. Install Gnu Make 4.4 as part of the pipeline. I then added a check to warn the user if the Make version they use is not supported.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

No, I’m saying you’d support older versions of make in your project and use docker images in your CIb pipeline to test each of those supported versions. If you’re not using any 4.4-specific features, 4.2 (20.04) and 4.3 (22.04) would probably work. So you’d have a docker container for every OS that you’re officially supporting (or at least every version of make that supported OSes use).

bahmanm OP ,
@bahmanm@lemmy.ml avatar

I see your point. Though the main thing, as I mentioned in the question, is that I’m using features from 4.4 so that strategy wouldn’t work for me.

‘even though it worked yesterday’ have you tried update + reboot?

Its fixed, nm-applets just got removed

luthis , in Gnome Networkmanager-Openvpn doesnt even want to connect

What happens? If you run on CLI with sudo is it the same?

Ovpn via cli doesnt give me a error either. Reinstalling with pacman doesnt work

Guake and only really customized by setting infinite scroll and tweaked transparency. I jump in and out of the terminal all the time, so it’s perfect for me. Plus F12 for terminal is old muscle memory from RISCOS.

Linux has the biggest market share if you consider servers and phones tho.

build_a_bear_group , in Why Personal Cloud Storage is so bad on Linux?
@build_a_bear_group@hexbear.net avatar

Not to endorse, but Dropbox always seemed to work without issue. Again, several years since I used it.

But more seriously, Ubuntu One should never have folded.

duckington OP , in Wifi Issues on MSI Laptop

… aaand it started working for no reason again. I guess it just measures whether you want it bad enough.

DJ Ware adds detailed performance statistics to his reviews.

I don’t think it’s very useful. Easily changeable default choices should make the most notable differences. The filesystem for example. Another big factor should be the configuration and the version of the kernel and it probably changes more between updates than between distributions.

eshep , (edited ) in How do I change **User Interface** font of flatpak applications?

@antihero, there's a few different methods that all attack that problem in perty much the same way. The flatpak in question needs to have access to the theme/font/icon pack you want it to use.

Bedpanbrian , in Wifi Issues on MSI Laptop

It sure what your resolution is, but I’ve been experiencing the first problem as well. MSI support has been great and after a few weeks it’s not happened. They did tell me if it does they will repair it even though it’s outside of warranty. Have you called them?

duckington OP ,

I’ve called them a few times but it’s been hard since their hours aren’t very long and I have a busy job. But to be honest I wasn’t banking on support since I haven’t ever had good tech support experience. Hearing that you’ve had a good experience, though, I think I’ll get in touch with them, thanks.

Bedpanbrian ,

They are there 24/7 except for major holidays.

And the support has been superb.

Froyn , in Cannot update flatpak packages

I don't see it in the post or comments, so rather than wishing you luck... Have you tried turning it off and then on again?

Kangy , in Endeavour OS looking sexy

This looks beautiful. Been tempted to set up a dual boot myself with Windows 11. How was it to get everything working?

Digester OP ,
@Digester@lemmy.world avatar

Easy actually. I’m on arch (Hyprland) right now, so no longer EOS but it’s been refreshing. I’d recommend EOS as a base for any arch install, better than “arch installer” by a long shot. If you have dedicated storage I’d recommend using it and booting to the respective system through EFI rather than relying on software bootloader (windows likes to break it). I am running arch on a dedicated SSD and it’s been smooth so far.

Kangy ,

That would be my plan, I have windows on its own 500gb drive and 2 1tb drives for gaming. My plan would be partition on the gaming drives as they just house the game files.

How much would you recommend allocating to EOS? I’m very much green around the ears when it comes to Linux, I’ve dabbled and have a home server running Manjaro and fumbled my way through that somehow!

If all goes well I’d like to daily drive it and only use Windows for games I can’t get running on EOS
