Why is Manjaro so popular lately? Posted: 01 Sep 2018 04:24 AM PDT Pretty straightforward question. It's been a while since I've messed with Linux, but on a whim I decided to fool around with setting up a dual boot with my Win10 installation. I've always been a fan of Mint, but I want to try something new. I keep seeing mention of "Manjaro", and I see it's at the top of the list as far as hits go on DistroWatch.com. Anyone know what all the hubbub is about? [link] [comments] |

Beautiful distro for older-non-computer-person, with weather widget, google maps app etc...

It will be used by my dad, completely non-computer person, he only uses Android on his mobile, but doesn't like Android on laptop. Many thanks in advance! [link] [comments] |
adding a drive to an encrypted lvm Posted: 01 Sep 2018 12:55 PM PDT I have a laptop with two drives in it. I plan on creating 3 partitions on the ssd:
The lvm will contain:
The "/home" logical volume will consist of the free space after all other logical volumes have been created and the full second disk (hdd). My question is: Will the data written to the hdd be encrypted as well? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Sep 2018 12:34 PM PDT Im looking into buying a laptop for school and im debating between the ThinkPad X1 Yoga and the X1 Carbon. Im starting to lean towards the Yoga but I plan on trying to dual boot and im not sure how that would work with something like a 2-in-1. If i loose most of the features of the Yoga then ill just go with the Carbon. And if I do have to download some extra drivers how hard might that be for someone new to linux? [link] [comments] |
What is the .xm.log command do and why does it take so long? Posted: 01 Sep 2018 12:33 PM PDT Hi. So I've noticed lately there's always a command on the top of my top command list. It's .xm.log and it's run by root. It takes about 200% of my cpu, amd a8 5600k. Here's a quick picture of the top list: picture Is this a command that I can stop from running and be all fine or is it important? [link] [comments] |

Trouble upgrading Ubuntu 14.04.03 to 16.04.** Posted: 01 Sep 2018 11:45 AM PDT A couple of weeks back I revived an old ADVENT laptop which I had installed Ubuntu on in 2014. In the process of making sure everything was up to date I realised that the distro version was a few years behind and started to take steps to upgrade to 16.04 (hoping to then move onto 18.04). This is where the jumper started to fall apart. When I use Software Centre I get an error saying "the required dependency 'apt(>=1.0.1ubuntu2.13)' is not installed"
At this point I'm a little out my depth and scouring askubuntu.com forums for similar insrances. So far I can see that there was a bad mirror for 14.04.03 preventing the move to 14.04.04/5 then onwards. Can anyone give me any support? Thanks in advance [link] [comments] |

How can I directly copy my HD to a SDD so that the SDD will boot up just like the HD? Posted: 01 Sep 2018 01:20 PM PDT I have a 200+ HD and a 60 SDD. I am removing unnecessary files from the HD so that it is < 60. Is it possible to then copy all files over to the SDD from the HD so that the SDD will boot up just like the HD did? I am assuming i'll do a direct copy with dd or something like that. I just want to make sure this will work before I re-arrange all my files. Thank you [link] [comments] |
Trying to install YouCompleteMe for Vim (At my wits end) Posted: 01 Sep 2018 11:21 AM PDT Hello, I decided to give Linux a try. I am currently using Fedora. I want to try and get the hang of using Vim, and for this, I'd like to install the YouCompleteMe plugin, specifically for C++. I've been trying to follow this guide on the official page: https://valloric.github.io/YouCompleteMe/ But after an entire afternoon of no success I come to you guys for help. Bear in mind I'm a COMPLETE Linux newbie, this is my first day using it. I've managed to install Vundle, and I've added the plugin as seen in the following screenshot: Where I'm falling flat is in the following step, in the Fedora installation instructions: https://valloric.github.io/YouCompleteMe/#fedora-linux-x64
When running these commands, I get the following error message: The source directory \"/home...\" does not appear to contain CMakeLists.txt So I went in to the full installation instructions: https://valloric.github.io/YouCompleteMe/#full-installation-guide And on this part, I'm struggling with step 3:
.It links to this page to download libclang, but I have no idea which of those files I'm meant to download. There's nothing specifically called libclang. I've tried downloading some of the pre-built binaries for Fedora listed, and extracted them where I think they're meant to go. Further down the page it says:
So on reading this, I extracted the pre-built binary file I made a new directory called tcm_temp/llvm_root_dir.
On executing this command, i get the following error: Using Clang completer, but no libclang found. And that's where I am now, I've tried so many different things. I've googled some of the error messages, but a lot of the pages I've found have people either just saying read the docs, or using linux jargon that goes way over my head. Anyway, hopefully someone can help me. Thanks for reading. [link] [comments] |

I found that by using the command So I want to know is there a way or a config file I can change to make it change the brightness by 10 or 15? My Device Information

Solus Budgie - Cannot Access Desktop/Cannot Pass Login Screen. Posted: 01 Sep 2018 09:39 AM PDT Skip for tl;dr but here is the full story. I was installing KDEConnect when suddenly the Desktop stopped responding or opening apps or anything, so I decided to restart. The system booted and I was able to log in, but the Desktop won't load up. I got stuck with the wallpaper and the bottom bar (for pinned apps and time etc). I googled a lot and ran through a lot of commands which eventually broke my desktop and I'm not able to Login anymore, let alone loading the desktop. I would boot up, reach the Login screen, type in the Passowrd, get a black screen for 3 seconss with a small _ flashing top left, and crash back to the login screen. What I have tried: Sudo eopkg up. Sudo eopkg check | grep Broken (grep Broken never did anything at all). Sudo eopkg history and takeback (went back 3 days and still no luck) What I have: a USB stick with a Solus installer ready to use, and a slow internet connection. Tl;dr: can't go past login screen, I type in the Passowrd only to get a blackscreen for 3 seconds and crash back to the login screen. [link] [comments] |

Posted: 01 Sep 2018 08:48 AM PDT I like to try out a lot of different distributions. I know how to make a bootable usb drive from an live image with dd. I have a very fast 64GB drive, from which I boot my live environments. However, much space is left on the drive, and I keep on rewriting my distro's with dd. Is there a way to put about 10 different live images on a single usb drive? [link] [comments] |
