My 10 year old nephew is interested in Linux. What are child-friendly ways of teaching him? Posted: 21 Aug 2019 04:18 AM PDT He always used to watch me when im on my laptop. So every now and then i let him type a few commands and run some scripts, he seemed to get the hang of it. I decided to give him an old laptop with Pop OS on it because he loves games. I know there are several command line games that help teach how to navigate and use linux in general, are there any suggestions you guys might have? [link] [comments] |
Trouble with Build, Make, Make install Posted: 21 Aug 2019 02:02 PM PDT I may be considered a noob at this. Over the years of using Linux, like 25 years. I have only been able to successfully install software that in precompiled packages. I'm sure it's my lack of understanding of programming that is the issue. If I download something from Git such as OpenCV, it fails miserably. There is always come dependency that I don't have or misconfigured and I just don't know enough to get it working. I am pretty certain the vast majority of users that do this are able to do it easily or there would be tons of complains on the web. Is there a secret to doing this? [link] [comments] |
Focaltech FTE001 Device Driver Issue. Posted: 21 Aug 2019 01:27 PM PDT Is there any way that I can have my Focaltech FTE001 touchpad to work on my Haier Y11C on linux? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 21 Aug 2019 11:54 AM PDT Ok so I installed Linux and their is no output from my speakers but the headphone jack is working. I went into alsamixer checked for dummyvolume but everything seems correct and finally out of a whim I raised the headphone volume knob in the mixer and speakers started to work but after a every restart I have to go back into alsa to raise the volume in the headphone and then only does the speaker works. Any idea on how to solve this problem sparing me a from the discomfort of adjusting it for every boot. The distro I'm using is solus but I tried several other distros and every one of them had the same problem [link] [comments] |
Pop_Os alongside Windows10: dual boot problem Posted: 21 Aug 2019 11:24 AM PDT Hi guys, I'm new to linux. When I installed Pop_Os alongside Windows 10 I made a new partition for the Pop's UEFI, and now I can't dual boot. If I want to load Windows I have to enter the Bios menu end go to Boot Menu. On a Lenovo ideapad this procedure is annoying because you have to push a button on the side with a needle or something similar. Can I do something to enable the dual boot? Can I copy and paste the Efi windows partition content in the Efi Linux partition? How can I do that? Thanks :) [link] [comments] |

Posted: 21 Aug 2019 10:08 AM PDT Hi guys, I'm having trouble installing Kubuntu. I keep getting an error where the grub boot loader fails to install. Any ideas? I have already tried recreating the installation media. Manual partitioning fails as well. [link] [comments] |
Ubuntu KDE not responding to clicks Posted: 21 Aug 2019 06:15 AM PDT I installed minimal KDE in Ubuntu VirtualBox server and it worked fine at first. Commad I used was "apt-get install kde-plasma-desktop --no-install-recommends" But later when i reinstalled KWin, panel stopped showing any window such as clicking on Start button just shows "blue line" above it but nothing is displayed and same is for other things on panel. I can't use keyboard shortcut as it is setup as German keyboard. KDE is also not responding to any Widget. Can anybody help?? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 21 Aug 2019 09:44 AM PDT Recently I Installed Linux Mint on my laptop and removed windows 7. Now I want to install windows 7 back but my BIOS is replaced by GRUB and it does not detect my bootable USB so that I can install Windows 7. How do I solve this issue. I urgently need windows 7 as I need to run some accounting software and those are not available on linux mint. Please Help me? [link] [comments] |

Wondering how to make Nemo not use gnome terminal Posted: 21 Aug 2019 08:41 AM PDT So I have just switched to the nemo file manager on my ubuntu 18.04 system and I really like it so far. The only issue is that "open in terminal" opens the gnome terminal, which looks like utter garbage with my gtk theme and isn't the terminal I use. The only way to change this that I can find on the internet is to use Cinnamon settings, but I have no intention or desire to install the Cinnamon de in order to get that. I tried removing gnome-terminal, but that stopped nemo from opening any terminal at all. I'm wondering if there's another way to change what terminal nemo uses (ideally get it to use konsole), or a way to get cinnamon-settings with the Cinnamon de. [link] [comments] |

Error on boot after installing Linuxbrew on Pop OS Posted: 21 Aug 2019 04:53 AM PDT Hi everyone, I'm hoping this is a simple problem to fix and I'm just struggling as this is my first time using Linux as my main OS. Anyway, I installed Linuxbrew following the instructions listed here: https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux And, it works, I can run commands and install packages using brew. However when I restart the system I get the following error which I can't seem to fix: " Error found when loading /home/[user]/.profile: /home/[user]/.profile: line 29: /bin/brew: No such file or directory As a result the session will not be configured correctly. You should fix the problem as soon as feasible. " If anyone has any ideas on how I can fix this, I would greatly appreciate it. Please find below some more information:
Thank you for your help. [link] [comments] |
How to extend a live cd root LVM? Posted: 21 Aug 2019 01:01 AM PDT I want to install a few things using the package manager, that don't need to persist but there is not enough space on root to fit them. I would like to do the following: 1) dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/shm/1G 2) fdisk set the partition type to 8e - LVM 3) pvcreate /dev/shm/1G at this step I always get "Device /dev/shm/1G not found." Is there any way to achieve what I want - extending a live root partition, without modifying the livecd build? [link] [comments] |

Posted: 21 Aug 2019 01:22 AM PDT Hello guys, do you know a freeware that can back up a physical CentOS/Red Hat server so that we can store it on an external hard drive and restore it into another server (so basically clone it) ? You can also name it if the software is not free but I would prefer a free one. Thank you very much for your kind help :) [link] [comments] |
Need help resizing/extending partitions. Posted: 20 Aug 2019 09:31 PM PDT Hello, I need help in adding my unallocated disk space to my home directory. To start off, I had originally had Windows on an MBR/legacy boot setup. I ran MBR to UEFI to make a UEFI partition because I still need to boot into windows for proprietary work software. I then installed Arch Linux and was able to mount drives but I clearly didn't partition as clean as I could of. My questions are:

Posted: 20 Aug 2019 04:26 PM PDT Hi, I need to change mount location of my external hard drive, but the problem is that wherever I change the mount location to, it suddenly makes the hard drive "write-protected," meaning no group has the permissions to write anything to it. I used gnome-disks to change the mount location, but once the raspberry pi reboots, the hard drive is unwriteable. What should I do to fix this? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 20 Aug 2019 08:54 PM PDT After searching for awhile now, every answer I've come across online mentions a cloud service of some kind, but never really touches on how to do it through USB. I'm going to be moving somewhere without any WiFi for a few months, so I wanted to be able to store and swap around movies from my laptop on to my iPad whenever (it's only a 32gb so space is limited). Any help would be greatly appreciated, but if there's no way to do it please let me know of that too. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 20 Aug 2019 07:36 PM PDT So I have Alpine running as a VM (hypervisor is Proxmox). I am in the process of getting Docker up and running here using this tutorial. I run the first command(apk add docker) but get unsatisfiable constraints. No problem, the wiki addresses this and all I need to do is type in "/etc/apk/repositories". This is where I get problems because even though I am running as root, I get a permission denied message. Is there something I am misunderstanding or doing wrong? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 20 Aug 2019 03:19 PM PDT I have a Thinkpad X40 I want to put a newer system on. It currently has XP and Fedora 13 and like, so many websites don't work anymore because of SSL or whatever, and XP is insecure. It doesn't have to do much, just like, maybe two browser tabs and a text editor or terminal window. For geeking when watching TV or whatever. I just love the keyboard and how tiny it is and don't want to throw it out if I don't have to. It's got a Pentium M 1 GHz, Centrino, 768MB RAM, and I think a 32GB SSD. http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:X40 Are there any more recent Linux versions that will work okay on this thing?
