The issue was discussed extensively in ublue-os/startingpoint#223 and eventually...

I was wondering if anyone else has had luck configuring SVP with MPV on wayland (AMD). I followed the archwiki wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mpv...

Hi folks, Does anyone know how to instruct cron to carry out a command when a connection to the internet is first made after boot? I have a few jobs that only need to be done once per day and require an internet connection e.g downloading the weather forecast and my rss feeds. I’m not always connected to the internet on boot...

What is your personal preference based on experience? I Assume because Mac is Unix and Linux is Unix based, it would be more suited, but I have no personal experience with the layout. I am willing to try something new if i hear enough merits for it, and I also find the windows layout somewhat inadequate(The grass is greener on...

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....
