An overview of the development state of both goals. Priority has porting all components to the Qt6 libraries and there will be no Qt5-based version of LXQt anymore.

I am not a member of the Anti-Snap crowd (although of course the server sources should be open source), but there is obviously a lot to improve. Flathub/Flatpak should also take note!

Can anyone recommend a simple printer for printing 6x4 inch photos, which has open source drivers? Thanks :)

Random UK grandma in my recommenced giving a tour of classic gnome.

Edit: I’m no longer looking for help with this. The issue seems to be with the app itself and I have submitted a bug report for the app on github....

My grandma just gave me her old MacBook Pro (MacBookPro11,1 A1502) and, after removing a spicy pillow, air dusting everything, and copying off her old photos, I’m ready to do a clean install....

I would just like to preface this. This is the first blog post I’ve ever written, so please please please give me feedback if you can. I also didn’t intend on it being here on Lemmy, but Hugo is quite a complex tool that’ll take some time for me to understand. Webdev is not my cup of tea....

I’m trying to update my grub boot order back to booting the first option instead of the second, so I run sudo nano /etc/default/grub, but it brings up this, which is not the file I want to edit....

I’m trying to connect my Wiimote via Bluetooth to a new Minisforum UM690S running Linux Mint 21.3. I’m using this post from the ArchWiki as a reference, and I am fully able to do this successfully on my laptop (running Tuxedo OS 2) and another mini-PC running Pop_OS!...

After seeing someone else posting their struggles with getting Docker running on their system, I thought I might share my process for setting up new Docker nodes. I don’t make any representations about my way being the right way, or the best way, but this way has been working for me. I have been playing around with a swarm,...

If you have any suggestions or criticisms, feel free to comment them....

The title explains it well. But I installed Mint on a 2nd partition, then deleted it since I no longer used it, and now Grub dumps me to the command line on boot :/...

Edit:...

My elderly neighbor who is an accomplished engineer and has been using Linux for ages recently upgraded his distro. I think he is using Ubuntu or Fedora. Now whenever he prints pages every line of text has a line through it....

I installed a few different distros, landed on Cinnamon Mint. I’m not a tech dummy, but I feel I’m in over my head....

AMD has been on a roll over the past year making significant strides in power management across the Linux stack....

I installed fedora kde earlier today, hated kde, couldn’t uninstall it, so reinstalled with workstation. My hostname was originally computer, but I changed it, but now I still see user@computer ~ whenever I go into a terminal? is this a problem. Gnome terminal also looks weird

I recently switched to Linux (Zorin OS) and I selected “use ZFS and encrypt” during installation. Now before I can log in it asks me “please unlock disk keystore-rpool” and I have to type in the encryption password it before I’m able to get to the login screen....

Like many open-source projects, the Uyuni Project has a long tradition of fostering community engagement and open dialogue, which is why those who are interested in configuration management should consider joining the Uyuni Community Hours scheduled for Feb. 24 at 15:00 UTC....

Is there a good way to roll back the nvidia driver to an older version? I need 470 for my vr headset, as newer versions seem to disable video output to the headset. I have tried some logical stuff like sudo apt remove --purge nvidia-driver and also some more radical stuff like sudo apt remove --purge “^nvidia-*” but that...
