| Lightweight and noob-friendly desktop environment for network VM Posted: 22 Oct 2018 02:52 AM PDT I have to set up network virtual machines for online use, and I'm trying to find the best desktop environment for that. As my users are sometimes Linux noobs, we're looking for a DE that'll look familiar to them at first login. We tried using Cinnamon as it's fairly Windows-like but it's too heavy. Currently we're thinking about deploying XFCE (as I found a way to set up a personalized default environment through Criteria are:

| Kubuntu 18.04 freezes when left on for about an hour Posted: 22 Oct 2018 06:26 AM PDT I finally got the dual boot working proper, but now this happens. Has happened twice. First I noticed my PC's screen wouldn't come back on when I came back to it hours later. Thought it might be a sleep issue so I disabled screen saving options and such. Came back after waking up and the screen was still on but frozen, couldn't move the mouse. I looked into it and some say it might be related to nvidia drivers? I installed some at some point because I have a gtx1070. So I typed sudo ubuntu drivers-autoinstall and got this https://i.imgur.com/gTh1HXj.png What does it mean? In the driver manager I have these [link] [comments]  |

| Laptop need permission to sleep? Posted: 22 Oct 2018 09:20 AM PDT I have an old laptop I installed Linux mint on. When I close the lid it's set to go to sleep to save on battery when not in use. For some reason it doesn't seem to ever do that properly and when I go check on it it's dead or still completely running depending on if the battery lasted the night. It doesn't go into sleep mode. The other day I closed the lid, waited about 5min and opened it and quickly saw an alert asking for permission to go to sleep and asking for the password. I think the problem is that mint is asking for permission to go to sleep, and since I've closed the lid I cannot do that (obvious). Is there anyway to tell it to go to sleep without permission? Or am I missing something in some other setting? Latest stable release xfce. [link] [comments]  |

| Anyone know of a good voice changing program for Linux? Posted: 22 Oct 2018 02:57 AM PDT I know it's pretty random, but I'm looking for a program that I can use to change my voice in Linux, preferably one that works like a virtual audio device. I need to be able to use it in chat programs. The reason I'm asking is because I keep getting called by these tech scam™ companies, and was wanting to mess with them a bit. Anyway, if you know of any good programs for this let me know! Thanks in advance. [link] [comments]  |
| Recommendation for a distro that is minimal, stable and fast to set up Posted: 22 Oct 2018 09:02 AM PDT I'm looking for a distro that fulfills these 3 properties:
I use i3wm, so I don't need a DE. I've used Ubuntu 18.04 so far and I like it because sound, wifi, drivers etc. work out of the box and it's pretty stable. So it does fulfill both 2) and 3). But it's just too bloated. Can you guys recommend something else? [link] [comments]  |
| Linux Centos after deployment seeing folders as files Posted: 22 Oct 2018 06:42 AM PDT I am working on a DevOps pipeline deploying ELK stack. I have to run this to clear out the issue.

| Can anyone help me diagnose a very slow 82579LM NIC on Ubuntu 16.04? Posted: 22 Oct 2018 03:21 AM PDT Hi guys, New to Linux, and I'm stumped as to where to even start to diagnose this. I have Gigabit fibre, and my other machine get approx 800meg, but my linux box is only getting 45 using the same cable. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |
| Chromium much faster than Firefox in Linux. Posted: 22 Oct 2018 12:34 PM PDT I'm in the process of choosing the right Linux distribution. So far I've tried Ubuntu 18.04, 16.04, Zorin OS 12.4, Linux Mint 18.. Most of them have Firefox preinstalled, so that's what I've used, but Zorin has Chromium and I noticed how fast the browser was compared to Firefox on all other distros. I'm using live USBs so I can't really install and compare them side by side on a single distro. It seems that everywhere I look, people say that Firefox Quantum is faster than Chrome, but maybe that only applies to Windows? It was so much fun browsing with Chromium on Zorin OS. I guess my question is, why would I see such a difference? Maybe I'm a little exaggerating, but it's really noticeably faster. What's your experience? [link] [comments]  |
| What is linux used for and how do you use it? Posted: 22 Oct 2018 02:00 PM PDT What exactly is linux used for and what are the benefits? I am a college student beginning my major in IT, I recently went to a career fair and spoke with a couple recruiters that said knowing linux will get you a long way. So I have been curious, I think it has a couple uses with servers if i'm not mistaken and I know people use it as an OS. When starting out how do you use it? Where do you/ what's a good place to start? I recently bought a new pc and was considering making my old pc a linux os, is that recommended or should I try to use VM or something? This turned into a couple question but I just curious overall, thanks. [link] [comments]  |
| Brother printer only printing blank sheets Posted: 22 Oct 2018 02:00 PM PDT I've spent two hours trying to get my Brother DCP-J152W to actually print ink on paper - I installed the appropriate driver, but when I click print, it is receiving data and then just prints blank pages every time. I am truly stumped. How the devil do you print on this thing? [link] [comments]  |
| Mouse Acceleration can be disabled by libinput method but not any other method Posted: 22 Oct 2018 01:31 PM PDT Hi guys, I am using Manjaro Mate, which is up to date and dual booting with Windows. Now, I tried to disable mouse acceleration, as I plan to play some of my native linux games on steam, and I rather prefer a consistent mouse. When I used the first method listed in the arch wiki to disable mouse accel, it did not work, even though i rebooted and double checked everything in the 50-mouse-acceleration.conf file. Then I tried the libinput method, and it worked pretty well. Can somebody please explain why the other method I have stated above (non-libinput method) does not work? Thanks in advance! P.S. sorry for bad formatting, am on mobile [link] [comments]  |
| Lenovo G510 WiFi on Fedora Linux Posted: 22 Oct 2018 01:26 PM PDT I'm a complete beginner in using Linux. I have decided to try out Fedora on my laptop Lenovo G510. The problem is that my WiFi adapter BCM43142 doesn't seem to be working. I tried out some solutions I found on the internet, but they don't seem to work. Could someone please help me out?

| Posted: 22 Oct 2018 01:26 AM PDT Distribution is Manjaro, I move the location of my /home directory to a new drive by doing the following: I have then added the UUID to /etc/fstab But when I come to reboot the system now it boots into Emergency mode. I then have to keep mounting /dev/sba1 to /home and this allows me to boot into the OS. What do I need to do to stop having to keep going into Emergency Mode? [link] [comments]  |
| Ubuntu Xenial/XFCE & wifi issues Posted: 22 Oct 2018 01:13 PM PDT Good evening all! I'm running Xenial with the xfce desktop through crouton on my chromebook, works great(ish) based on the laptop specs! I have a reoccurring issue through, when I leave the system unattended I have to run the command: xset dpms force off To switch the display off, as the power manager does diddly squat. Now, when I leave it, it seems ubuntu switches off, or powers down the wifi connection, so when I wiggle the mouse I've found everything has crashed in my chromium browser. I've checked the power manager, and there is nothing that goes on standby. I'm pretty new so not really sure what else I should be looking for? [link] [comments]  |

| Need to expand a CentOS 7 block device Posted: 22 Oct 2018 12:46 PM PDT Greetings... I'm clearly lacking a basic understanding of how Linux/CentOS manages storage. I have a CentOS 7 VM on VMware ESXi, currently comprised of two 500 GB hard disks. CentOS sees each of the drives as 537 GB Virtual Disks. Where are the extra 37 GB coming from on each drive? More to the point: I have an application that has to store a lot of info, so I need to add storage to this VM. Looking at the Files utility in Gnome, there is one 934 GB 'drive' available. Using the Disks utility I can see that one of the disks has 4 partitions (1.1 GB @ /dev/sda1 XFS, 192 GB @ /dev/sda2 LVM2, 75 GB @ /dev/sda3 LVM2, and 268 GB @ /dev/sda4 LVM2) and and the other has one (537 GB @ /dev/sdb1 LVM2). The Disks utility also shows three Block Devices, one of which is 934 GB in size... so I'm assuming this is the same 934 GB 'drive' shown in the Files utility. Since this is where my storage-hungry app lives, I need to add storage. Since this is a VMware VM, adding storage is easy... I can either increase the size of one of the virtual disks or add a third. But I have no idea how to add it to the 934 GB Block Device. I know I'll have to mess with the existing partition, but I can't risk losing data. It's backed up daily, but I'd still lose a day's worth of data. I've googled this stuff, but I have to admit that I haven't found info that makes sense to me. :-/ Any help will be greatly appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| Who's the biggest linux YouTuber? Posted: 22 Oct 2018 10:36 AM PDT The only one that comes to mind is the Brazilian Diolinux, with his 235k subscribers. Anyone else that I'm not aware of? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Oct 2018 06:33 AM PDT Hey, I am trying to get borg setup to backup over ssh. The first step is just running a backup and see if it works, automation comes after. So I run this in the terminal: borg create ssh://user@raspberry.domain.com:2222//Borging::Test ~/Documents It asks for my SSH passphrase and then provides this output. https://pastebin.com/SLtjQpfw That isn't the entire thing, but you can see there it has permission issues on a lock.exclusive file. I'm not sure what that is, or how or what to change the permissions to for that. Since this is happening over SSH, not sure how to allow myself permission in this situation. [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 22 Oct 2018 07:45 AM PDT Essentially, what I'm doing is for work, and while I'm not the most experienced person on our team with Linux, I'm the most experienced, who also has the least amount of stuff on their plate, so I was tapped to take care of this. Not that I have a problem with it, I actually got pretty excited about building a Linux distro, but it's something I've never done before, and lately it's felt like I'm fumbling around in the dark--I just don't know the right questions to ask, so all my Googling gets me nowhere. That said, here's what is expected from me, along with what I got, and where I'm stuck. The GoalMake an .iso of a custom distro of Ubuntu that can boot and install to a machine just like if you had downloaded the Ubuntu .iso off of the official website. The only difference between theirs and ours is going to be:
Granted, I know I could accomplish this with scripting, and just use a standard distro of Ubuntu, but that means offloading more work onto each person who picks up a new machine that hasn't been used before--and tbh, while they know how to code in Linux, they're not the most Linux-savvy people, and tend to get lost easily when Linux doesn't do what they expect--and that's kind of what we're trying to mitigate. If we get a new machine, we want to be able to simply load an .iso, use default options (i.e. click "next, next, ,..., next, done"), and it's good to go, ready to be used. This way it can be used on any hardware, which is why I'm trying to avoid a simple image, backup-style. What I Got, and Where I'm StuckI used linux-live to create a live .iso of a distro of Ubuntu I pruned and installed software onto in a VM. The live .iso works, and I was able to boot it in a brand new VM. Problem is, as with all live distros, it has no persistence, and has no means to install itself on the live-booted machine. I started looking into Debian-Installer, but so far, it's been difficult to track down how to actually use it. I understand this is a pretty advanced topic for a sub like this, but I figured if nothing else, maybe someone can point me to a more appropriate sub to post this in, (before you suggest /r/linuxfromscratch yeah, I've been there, I'm not trying to make one from scratch, thanks), or maybe I'll get lucky, and someone here can point me to a decent walkthrough, tutorial, etc. If you got this far, thanks for taking the time! Edit: Pinguy was the solution I was looking for! Thanks, /u/doc_willislink to pinguy-builder[link] [comments]  |

| Learning Gentoo without breaking my Debian system Posted: 22 Oct 2018 01:00 AM PDT I dont know how to put it here, so bear with me on this. I want to learn about Gentoo portage system before I decide whether its a good idea or a bad idea to think about Gentoo in the future. The problem is, my laptop from 2012 cant run it on a separate VM, also because its 'compile yourself' like system, it will take alot of processing power. I want to have it run nearly on my level of hardware processing power as much as possible. I currently use Debian Stretch, and what I am thinking to do is to download stage 3 tarball, extract it somewhere in my home partition, chroot into it, and run it as it were my system just to be familiar with gentoo ecosystem. My question here is, how far can I fiddle with gentoo stage3 running on that chroot environment before I start breaking my main system which, I dont want to break Debian for now. All I am told is to not touch the kernel and not to format disks from chroot environment. [link] [comments]  |
