    I want to switch from Windows 10 to Linux and am wondering how transferring my files works?

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 09:47 AM PDT

    Sorry for being this unintelligent but I have no clue how files work on Linux. I want to use the Ubuntu distro. Do I just put my files on a USB and then plug it in when the new OS is installed? Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 01:26 PM PDT

    I found my laptop that was last used in 2008 in the storage unit and would like to put Linux on it. Which distro would be best for a Dell XPS m140? It appears to have a Pentium m 1.7ghz processor and 512 mb of ddr2 sdram. If there is more info I could add to help please let me know.

    Can someone suggest me linux distro that uses minimum amounts of ram?

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 10:19 PM PDT

    I'm looking for linux distro that uses less than or equal to 512MB of ram. All I want from that distro is to open a web browser and check out the files stored on the different OS by going on it IP port.

    Edit: Thanks for the overwhelming response to this newbies question. You all really helped me out.

    Are server machines configured to auto login on boot?

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 10:46 AM PDT

    I know this isn't a linux question per se. I was wondering how to setup a home media server, and it struck me that you'll have to login after boot to get any kind of functionality. Since, most servers run headless, I assume that you set up a server that auto logins into your account on boot. I guess even running cron tasks requires you to be logged in. Am I right? If yes, does this apply to enterprise grade servers as well?

    Is it possible to make a portable full Linux installation on an SSD?

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 03:54 AM PDT

    I was wondering if I could install elementary OS on an external SSD in such a way that I am able to save data each time my session ends. Essentially, it would be a portable Linux stick. For example, I wanted to be able to boot into it with my work PC, take the stick out, then plug it into my home PC with all my data saved. Is this feasible? If so, any links on how to do this would be appreciated :)

    If it is possible, then what are the glaring cons and how much storage should the portable SSD have?

    Pop OS sources.list

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 03:38 AM PDT

    Could someone running Pop!_OS 19.04 tell me the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list? I've been having issues installing R, and a very kind redditor was able to narrow down my problem to not having the correct repositories in that file

    Edit: Solved!

    Trying to run Windows via VMware Player, but whenever I attempt to "power it on" I get the following error:

    Could not open /dev/vmmon: No such file or directory. Please make sure that the kernel module `vmmon' is loaded.

    Followed by:

    Failed to initialize monitor device.

    And then program closes. Anyone know how to fix this?

    I got some questions

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 06:12 AM PDT

    im sick of windows and its illusion of free choice and privacy.

    1. can i use an old hp g7000 for linux mint? and what happens to the information already obtained by windows?
    2. how is rasberry pi 4, can it be a replacement for a desktop if you dont really do to heavy stuff?
    3. if i was to build an actual build what parts should i use, i know what parts make up a pc just not which ones to use
    4. how should i think about privacy in general, i want to be able to use the internet like normal but no data collected, no location logged, no names etc or maybe the best way is to cut out internet all together

    Ill be using it for watch movies and tv on or offline, music same thing, general web browsing and maybe gimp and liber office.

    Depending on if i can use rasberry pi 4 i might do two diffrent "builds".

    Thanks in advance!

    Clang in Ubuntu causing segfault

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 09:53 AM PDT

    I did sudo apt install llvm and sudo apt install clang-6.0 but then clang --version returns -bash: /usr/bin/clang: No such file or directory and clang-6.0 --version returns Segmentation fault (core dumped). What's going on and how do I fix this?

    Edit: is there also a higher version of clang that I can use? Not quite sure what the highest version that supports 16.04 is.

    Edit 2: it also says that I have the following packages installed:

    libclang-common-6.0-dev libclang1-6.0 libcurl3 llvm-6.0 llvm-6.0-dev llvm-6.0-runtime 

    I don't remember installing any of these packages.

    Plymouth and Nvidia Drivers Fedora 30

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 12:49 PM PDT

    I have installed the Nvida CUDA drivers via the negativo17 repro and they work great. However Plymouth is gone during boot up and I only see 3 small squares in the middle of the screen once the GDM login page comes up everything is fine.

    Does anyone have steps for restoring Plymouth during boot with the Nvidia drivers? I would just like to have a clean boot up process if possible.

    What is the a simple way to setup Local file sharing at home in Ubuntu?

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 08:56 AM PDT

    Scrambled through the internet and found out that Samba is the man. I can't install samba because it throws error like:

    https://i.redd.it/p09pl2noeti31.png

    How do I successfully set it up, not necessarily with a password initially? Appreciate you help!

    Edit: Its my bad for not clearly stating the matter. What I want to achieve is a shared folder on my ubuntu which anyone can access, windows or linux, and download or view its contents through the router. So theoretically, my PC working as a server of that shared folder.

    I need help with a spammy error

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 08:16 AM PDT

    Hi I have a spammy error that I have no idea how to fix and its annoying me to no end.

    the only way to get rid of it is to disable my wifi module (iwlwifi)

    i get an error that floods my console without ever ending whenever i boot up and im unsure how to go about fixing it cause i cant find a solution literally anywhere.

    the error is "iwlwifi 0000:00:0c.0: Unhandled alg: 0x707"

    it mostly doesnt interfere with me using my OS but it bothers me knowing its happening and whenever i go into TTYL mode i cant use it cause it floods the screen.

    im using xubuntu.

    pardon if im not writing very well i just woke up.

    SSD&HDD combo

    Posted: 26 Aug 2019 06:50 AM PDT

    When I had my old laptop (with one hard drive in), I used Ubuntu and some other Debian based distros. I'm on Windows currently with a 120gb SSD which as Windows and a few games on and a 1TB HDD which has some programs and downloads on. I want to move over to Manjaro, if I install it on the 120GB ssd, how can I also use the 1TB hdd for downloads (firefox) etc. *I won't be installing any steam games.*

    Thanks
