How to go back to a parent directory then go into a different directory from there? Posted: 31 Oct 2018 10:54 AM PDT So in terminal, I would do cd .. to go back to the parent directory. if I wanted to go back twice, I would want to use cd ../.. What if I want to enter another folder in the parent directory after backing out? ~$ cd ../differentfolder does not seem to work [link] [comments] |
Posted: 31 Oct 2018 08:29 AM PDT I have been learning Redhat for the certifications, however I am still very novice. I am going to be building a new computer, and I would really like to use Linux. I am only using the computer for basic home media storage, some basic photo/video editing and paying bills. What would be the best option for a Linux OS for home PC use? Will I have problems finding drivers for the components I choose? Any recommendations would be helpful [link] [comments] |
What is the actual reason for them to say we shouldn't install Ubuntu packages in Debian? Posted: 31 Oct 2018 05:05 AM PDT Well, they warn us to not install Ubuntu Packages on Debian. What would possibly go wrong if both of them are .deb? How are they different? And does this also mean that we shouldn't install Debian packages in Ubuntu? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 31 Oct 2018 01:10 PM PDT I'm looking to move to a new DE. I've been using Gnome 3 for a while, but I've been getting frustrated with how "monolithic" it is, there's so few settings to play with, so I'd like to switch to something else. The main things I'm looking for are modularity, "simplicity", and attractiveness. Right now I'm thinking about either MATE or xfce. Does anybody have some opinions one way or the other? I've tried both and currently I'm leaning towards xfce, it seems like the more mature and flexible option, though really they're quite similar in look and level of customizability. FYI, this is on OpenSUSE, not that it really matters, Both DEs seem well supported. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 31 Oct 2018 02:19 AM PDT Hi all, I have a server that i run my company off. and currently I use google drives unlimited storage to backup nightly. Thing is the system i made dose this, 1. Backup the Drives to a Dated backup zip using cron. this goes to a temp HDD. Then a windows vm scans the temp HDD for a new file. once the files detected (bat file checks folder and moves to google file stream) This then gets uploaded to google drive and docent use any space on the server. I cant help but think there must be a way to eliminate the windows vm part. Google drive sync wont work as this needs a copy of the zip on the server. The HDD can fit 1 backup at a time before upload and deletion for the next day. Any advice on this? [link] [comments] |
Cannot boot any distro on my desktop Posted: 31 Oct 2018 06:02 AM PDT Hi, I have a problem with being unable to boot into any live Linux distro on my modified Dell Optiplex 9020MT (i5-4670, 16GB RAM, GTX 1050, 128GB SSD + 1TB HDD). I tried both Manjaro Xfce 17.1.10 (I managed to get it up and running with i3wm pretty easily on my laptop and I wanted to do the same to my desktop) and Xubuntu 18.04, but both hang at boot, displaying a black screen or just the loading screen, respectively. Both do display the boot menu, but when I choose boot or Try Xubuntu without installing, it hangs. I do see the Manjaro boot log, but there's nothing out of the ordinary. As for the BIOS settings, the boot is set to Legacy (otherwise nothing would boot on the machine) but I also tried UEFI to no avail. Secure Boot is turned off and I even tried turning off the TPM to see if that helped, but it didn't. If it helps, I am running Windows 10 on the SSD and I planned to install Manjaro on the HDD, just booting to it via boot settings every once in a while. Any help that could get this up and running would be appreciated. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
So I keep messing up grub what am I doing wrong. Posted: 31 Oct 2018 01:00 PM PDT So part of the standards where I am working is hardening down our linux boxes pretty normal stuff. I'm natively a windows guy though and our Linux guy left and now I'm left to try and muttle my way through it. I've bricked two VM's with the instructions I got and can't seem to figure out the problem
That seems to be the part giving me fits. I believe it is when I add the last part to the grub file before rebooting. Attached is a screenshot of my grub file. Any help you can give would be great. Trying to automate a lot of this process, but I need to understand it manually first. Also this is Rhel 7.4 and /, /local, and swap are encrypted with Luks boot is not encrypted. [link] [comments] |
Gentoo based distros to recommend Posted: 31 Oct 2018 12:57 PM PDT Hi y'all! I have been using arch for like 3 years and want to try gentoo, but it seems easier for starters to go from easy lvl gentoo :D [link] [comments] |
Posted: 31 Oct 2018 07:33 AM PDT Running lubuntu 18.04. Suddenly my boot time became very long. systemd-analyze says I'm spending almost 3 minutes on "dev-sda1.device" and another 2 minutes on "keyboard-setup.service." This only started happening recently, what can I do to work on this? [link] [comments] |
Cursor changes size un Ubuntu 18.10, looking for solution Posted: 30 Oct 2018 02:55 PM PDT |
Posted: 31 Oct 2018 07:09 AM PDT I'm trying to build the newer version of make-jpkg because I *think* it has support for openjdk. My repo only has v 0.62 and this one is 0.63. I've cloned it and when I make I get this ouput: That creates a SUPPORTED file with the contents: I currently have java-1.11.0-openjdk-amd64 as my only installed java version, nothing to switch to using update-java-alternatives. I'm lost at this point, as I need to get an openjdk 11 .deb to add to a local repository. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 31 Oct 2018 07:00 AM PDT I have old hp tower with windows XP. Trying to boot lubuntu from USB. It calls it legacy usb-fdd. I set as first boot but it does not see USB. Tried bios and legacy wifi. Any ideas would be helpful [link] [comments] |
Google calendar desktop background Posted: 31 Oct 2018 02:21 PM PDT I'm just wondering if it's possible, any apps or something like rainmeter to do this. I've heard about conky, but it seems a bit hard to configure. (Ubuntu) [link] [comments] |

Posted: 31 Oct 2018 09:02 AM PDT I have a problem with Grub. I wanted to install Manjaro on an external USB Harddrive. I used a normal ISO file. In Manjaro I wanted to install it. I had some problems with that, and I think I accidentally installed GRUB on my Windows SSD. Now every time I want to boot into Windows I get a Grub welcome screen. Then there I an error Message Unknows File System. Grub then goes into Grub rescue. All the grub command I found online didn't work, except "ls". I don't know what I should do now, because all the commands and tips I found online didn't work. Thanks [link] [comments] |
Posted: 31 Oct 2018 05:02 AM PDT I made the mistake of turning my entire MacBook into a Linux machine. I tried updating it but now when I boot it, it's just stuck on a purple screen. I can't access anything at all. Usually the screen flickers and then it's just stuck. I can't even use the caps lock then. [link] [comments] |
Is there any list of secure boot compatible distros? Posted: 31 Oct 2018 06:35 AM PDT Okey, I know the most popular distros, like Ubuntuor Fedora, should work withsecure boot straight away, right? But I wonder if the is some list of all distros that just works with secure boot? [link] [comments] |

Grub 2.02 error "you need to load the kernel first." Trying to dual boot with Windows 10 and Ubuntu. Posted: 31 Oct 2018 11:49 AM PDT A while back I had a dual boot with Linux Mint and Windows 10. I ended up deleting the Mint and deleted the partitions (root, home, swap) that I had created for Mint. Now I would like to install a new distro to dual boot once again, but it won't let me boot my live USB when I try. It takes me to the black grub screen "Minimal BASH-like editing is supported." When I type 'boot' at the prompt it says "error: you need to load the kernel first." I've read that I need to run a live version of Linux and install boot repair, but I cannot get past this grub screen to get me into a live version. Any suggestions? Without the USB in, when I restart the computer, my Windows 10 starts as normal. [link] [comments] |

Can't Pair PS3 Controller via Bluetooth in Elementary OS 5.0 Posted: 31 Oct 2018 06:51 AM PDT I have an official Sony PS3 controller I am trying to pair with my laptop over Bluetooth. My laptop is a MacBook Air v4,1 running Elementary OS 5.0. From what I understand, the controller should be basically plug and play in Ubuntu 18.04, which is what eOS 5.0 is based off of. You connect it via USB first, and will get a prompt to allow the connection. Once that is done, USB can be disconnected and it will pair over Bluetooth. I've tried this to no avail. In eOS Juno, no such prompt comes up. I also tried to pair them normally by having them discoverable. The controller does work over USB. My BT version is new enough at 4.0, and I made sure Bluetooth is blacklisted from TLP. Any suggestions on how to get this working? [link] [comments] |
Installing Fedora on Macbook Air / No Wi-Fi Adapter Found Posted: 31 Oct 2018 07:07 AM PDT Hello, I'm a beginner in Linux and this is my first ever time using Fedora. I am attempting to install Fedora as a dual boot on my Macbook Air to eventually merge to use it fulltime there to start learning some Linux :). I created a bootable drive with Fedora and selected to try it first to make sure everything is working fine, but right away I noticed the wi-fi problem, does anyone know how I can install the wifi drivers for it? Some things to note:Device is a Macbook air model A1465 EMC2631 made mid 2013. The macbook has no ethernet port, I will have to bring the drivers using an external usb device. I am new to Linux and have no idea how I would go about doing this at all. Here is the information for the wireless card on the macbook: Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0x152) [link] [comments] |
