Update on what happened across the GNOME project in the week from July 15 to July 22.

I set this up a few weeks ago since all my systems, except one Gentoo server, run Debian and I am very happy with it. Should work on all distros using apt (Mint, Ubuntu, etc.) and I’ve read that dnf may work with it as well.

I couldn’t find a r/linuxhardware alternative community, so I decided to ask here....

Hey, For some reason(s) after I start my Void system I have 2 /Home partitions. One is /Home/Void and the second one is /Home/Moi. Now I suspect the Void one is because I kept Void as a user and the second one is because I changed the name Void User to Moi. Now for the weird part… /Home/Void uses the / allocated space while...

should i turn off pc with power outlet?

For years, I’ve gotten by with a desktop at home running Arch and a work laptop running Kubuntu. Now I want a laptop that’s not owned by my job, so that I can use a computer outside the house and not have my workplace own the IP rights of whatever I do on it. My workload is basically just going to be emacs and web browsing,...

I recently opted to move from XFCE to KDE Plasma after hearing so many good things about the KDE desktop environment. While I like the desktop interface/experience a lot more on KDE, there is one glaring issue… I can’t remote into it....

I have read the FAQ of KDE Neon: it is well made and answers ground questions like “Is it a distro?” or “Can I turn Kubuntu into KDE Neon?”...

Linux noob here. Usually in Windows if I have a 1TB SSD, I make a 250GB partition for Windows and all of its things and I use the rest for a second partition where I install my stuff and store my files....

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

I used OBS, and everything was okay, but after I reinstalled the system and switched from XFCE to KDE Plasma, I encountered an error. I have no idea what changed, except for the desktop environment, and I don’t know why I am facing these problems now. OBS freezes my PC and closes every game (I guess?)....

I couldn't find any documentation about this anywhere, but it seems like they do NOT work together...

This week the Slackware Linux project is celebrating its 30th anniversary. It is the oldest Linux distribution that is still in active maintenance and development.

Hot take incoming. Just some thoughts I’ve been having recently as I experience Linux at work for several years now. To clarify, I mean Linux on the desktop as a consumer. As in, what our lord and savior Richard M. Stallman would call “GNU/Linux”; pick your favorite distro here. I’m leaving out Linux on the server,...

Hi all. I’m hoping to get some help from folks with more Linux experience than me. I’m not a Linux noob, but I’m far from an expert, and I have some huge gaps in my knowledge....
