I’ve never had an issue once its set up. Just a 16GB LUKS partition alongside my normal LUKS partition, a small edit to /etc/crontab so I only have to enter the password once, set the RESUME variable, add to fstab, and rebuild init. This method even works with suspend-then-hibernate on every laptop I’ve used it with....
Hello everyone. I’m going to build a new PC soon and I’m trying to maximize its reliability all I can. I’m using Debian Bookworm. I have a 1TB M2 SSD to boot on and a 4TB SATA SSD for storage. My goal is for the computer to last at least 10 years. It’s for personal use and work, playing games, making games, programming,...
I started daily driving Linux since I left school this year and used it before but mainly windows because school wanted us to run Word, Teams, etc. Today I wanted to play games and haven’t set up my device for gaming and didn’t want to download the game twice (good internet). Like a good PC user I wanted to do my updates. It...
Hi, I would like to ask if openSuse Tumbleweed is a good option for daily driving ang gaming. I’m not new to Linux and have tried Linux Mint and Ubuntu. I can also troubleshoot problems on my own if anything comes up. The graphics card I have is Nvidia if its any relevant.
I’m helping a family member build a pc. He wanted to use Windows because “Linux can’t play games” despite me having a perfectly good gaming laptop running Linux that runs all my games, even graphically intensive ones....
I mean, is it really worth it to compile every single program that I install? Wouldn’t that be a waste of time? I am inclined to try it out but on the other hand idk
Otherwise I have to write one myself. In which case anybody have a good guide on writing Linux kernel drivers in rust? Maybe specifically catered towards controllers...
I’m looking to create a macro keyboard (full keyboard) which is separate from my main keyboard, under Debian with KDE Plasma running under Wayland. I have seen similar tools for X11 but they do not work under Wayland for obvious reasons. I have been able to create basic macros using Python, but is there a much better way for...
Occasionally my laptop will just loose all wifi connectivity. Running dmesg at those moments provides this output: [ 1588.714014] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Error sending REMOVE_STA: enqueue_hcmd failed: -5 [ 1588.714017] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Failed to remove station.

My partner and I are thinking about getting a Brother laser printer for home use in the near future. How difficult is it to get a newer model working in a Linux ecosystem? Are there any specific drivers we should look into installing, if a specific driver isn't available for the model we end up getting? Any advice for connecting...
It’s getting tedious to put in my password every time I open YaST, I know what I’m doing and since I’m the only one who uses my computer the security risk is something I’m willing to take. I found an Ubuntu forum post but the solution didn’t work for me. Any ideas?
I’ve given up on trying to use the QT file picker everywhere, as theming and image previews are broken when I try to do it on NixOS, so now I want to improve the GTK file picker....
Hello! I have a 215Gb fat32 partition on my external SSD, and a 100Gb unallocated space right next to it, and I’s like to extend it to 315Gb. So, on KDE partition manager, I right-click on the fat32 partition, select “resize/move”, and this is the windows that pops up:...
So, I’ve installed Manjaro quite while ago, and I let secure boot disabled during installation. Dang! Is there a way to keep (most of) my system and enable secure boot and LUKS after the fact?
The main cloud services don’t even work natively (GoogleDrive, OneDrive, iCloud) basically the only mainstream choice is Dropbox. I tried to use Google Drive in Mint, and it’s a pain to get it to work, and usually it stops working after computer restarts....
