Hi, lets talk about 2in1 laptops and tablets. Which ones are the best for running linux on them, which ones are your favorites right now, what do you like using them for, etc. I find myself really missing having a 2in1 sometimes, especially for the portability aspects of them....

Can you recommend any screen video capture tools compatible with Wayland? I’ll use such a tool on my Raspberry Pi 400 under 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm, so I’d prefer one with appropriate Debian binaries....

I have some locally stored media i was copying between drives and one mkv file gave this error error reading ‘video1.mkv’: Input/output error and only copied 176/256 MiB; the copied file plays the video only up to a certain point before abruptly closing; I can play the original file fine albeit there is a noticeable hitch at...

Para alguien con cierta experiencia en Linux, ¿con que distribución rolling de Linux te quedarias? ¿Alguna otra opción?...

I have setup my fedora to use LUKS encryoted partitions. But entering two passwords gets quite tiring, as I shutdown my laptop quite often to get the benefit of LUKS (I am assuming nothing is encrypted when in suspend, please correctme if I am wrong)...

I recently switched to iDrive for my backup needs but couldn’t work out how to get it running on Linux. iDrive provide a series of scripts for Debian machines but this is obviously no good for non Debian systems (using Nixos here). I read about a method of hacking the scripts so they think you’re running Debian, but this...

Is it just me or fonts really look better on GNOME and other (gtk DEs)? With the same font smoothing/anti-aliasing settings, text in GNOME is smoother and more similar to MacOS fonts....

[SOLVED]...

Heya, I’m currently using my old tv as a monitor and the problem is that it seems to have overscan and I can’t go into the tv menu to change it. Do you know of any desktop environments that allow you to resize the window height and width? I’ve tried KDE with kdoctor and xrandr settings but all it did to me was changing hiw...

I would like to have a browser with some long running tabs available at all time on all my workspaces – is there an extension for that?

Hi all, Not sure if this is a distro specific, DE specific, a monitor brand specific or just linux/AMD in general. So, I have an RX580 GPU. It is an older one, but does just for what I do on my PC (emulation). Everything works fine until I start one of the emulators and play a game. I have two 27" 4k monitors, a dell and a...

Just kidding, there is no closure. I could not replicate this issue again after multiple reboots....

I’ve got a weird problem and looking for possible pointers....

I’ve tinkered with Linux installations before but the last time I made changes to a BIOS it looked 8-bit, not like a windows program (I use Macs, for reference)....

I’m running Ubuntu, and every once in a while, I boot up my PC and some app is missing that was there previously. Last night I shut down my computer, and this morning Firefox was missing. I lost all my browsing history, cookies, bookmarks, extensions, etc....

Hello, Archlabs is gone . I use this distro so I wonder If I can still update it safely ?...

To begin: Ubuntu 23.04 64-bit system Gnome 44.2 Kernel Version 6.2.0-26-generic Wayland So I need help with getting blender to work with my Rx6700xt, I need HIP RT running, but as of rn it’s not, do any of u have a solution for this. Also 3 months new to Linux, very scared of installing things i may or my not need.

(Solved) Apt seems to have gotten jammed somehow...

I’ve had very good experiences with both but wanted to give debian a try, after accepting that it’s nvidia drivers and Optimus support suck, I need to decide whether to use EndeavourOS or OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, not using base arch because I don’t want to go through the install hassle.

Alright guys, I’m going to do it. Today I’m ditching Windows and trying to run Linux exclusively as my daily driver....

Just confirming

Hi everyone 🙂...
