| Recommended Linux course(s) for beginners? Posted: 03 Jan 2020 09:07 AM PST I am looking to up my Linux game. I have a very, very basic set of Linux skills and can Google but I don't feel confident at all. I'd like to get as confident in a Linux environment as I am in a Windows environment. What are some of your recommended courses? I prefer ones that are a bit hands-on as well. I don't mind paying money for a really good course either. Looking for fundamentals and up to fill in any gaps in my knowledge and get a really solid foundation if that makes sense? Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| From WIN10 to a Linux based operating system: Questions from a Noob Posted: 03 Jan 2020 08:22 AM PST Hello, I would like to have some advice as I would like to switch from WIN10 to a Linux based operating system. As I write this, I'm still in a process to learn what and how I should do to make this change. When I was kid, my dad had installed Ubuntu on my computer, and I liked it a lot. This was the article that made me think about switching to Linux. What kind of Linux would you recommend for me? What I should take into an account? Like some compatibility issues, maybe? What kind of knowledge would help me to get started? How much storage space will a Linux operating system take compared to WIN10? My know-how is quite limited: in high school I did manage to code a calculator with C++ on Notepad, and I bought my first computer parts and put it together with my boyfriend. Now think that I have a basic knowledge of computers and its components. I would love to know how to install a Linux system by myself, but alas I believe it is mandatory for me to ask my boyfriend to help me (has no experience on Linux but is capable with Windows, often helps others). But I still would like to know what I could do with my skills. I + we will look at the introductory links from the sidebar! How I use my computer: I like to play games from Steam and stand-alone client. I binge on Reddit, YouTube and Netflix. I also do a bit schoolwork, mainly writing essays with Word and do PowerPoint presentations (school provided access from home, we need to use Office360). My view on privacy: privacy is golden in these days and it is one of the reasons I would like to make this change. I try to use google etc. as little as I can, but sometimes feel that privacy-oriented tools like DuckDuckGo have a bit limited search outcomes.
Please do ask, if any info needs clarifying as I do not know the appropriate lingo well. I will do my best. [link] [comments]  |
| Black screen after resuming from suspend. Posted: 03 Jan 2020 04:27 AM PST My laptop seem to have black screen after resuming from suspend. My laptop is Asus Vivobook X505ZA with Ryzen 5 2500u. I have faced this issue in KDE distros like Manjaro, Fedora, Kubuntu, Opensuse etc. So I believe its a issue with plasma-desktop. Any fix will be highly appreciated. Current distro is Fedora 31. Edit: issue resolved by changing compositor renderer from opengl to xrender. Credits to u/TheSilentStar. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Jan 2020 07:57 AM PST Hi everybody, I am currently using Manjaro KDE on my Mini PC just for some office and research stuff. I need to use a cloud service in order to sync my uni files which I have stored on GDrive and OneDrive (both have free plans with my uni account). I have been searching for a Linux client for these two services but my experience has been awful:
Can someone give me any idea about what to do? Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| What kind of permissions does this Linux command provide? "chmod 765 name" Posted: 03 Jan 2020 02:39 AM PST Hi Guys, Is the below correct and in this case is it for a file or a folder? Thanks. The owner has read, write and execute permissions on the "name" The group has only read and write permissions on the "name" The other users have read and execute permissions on the "name" [link] [comments]  |
| Antivirus on Fedora 31? Which one? Posted: 03 Jan 2020 11:21 AM PST Hi everyone, I'm newbie on linux and I use Fedora as my daily driver. Should I install an antivirus? Should it be real-time or on demand? I don't know what can I do. I had bad experiences on Windows in the past. [link] [comments]  |
| After updating my OS my Wi-Fi adapter stopped working and the name changed. Posted: 03 Jan 2020 10:49 AM PST I know the WiFi adapter works because I just booted back into windows to submit this and it works on my other laptop running parrot os. I created a function in /etc/.bash_aliases called apt updater it looked like this: Somewhere in the process it failed, I belive it was during autoremove, because it stopped running and then my PC never rebooted, I'm currently dual booting parrot os and windows 10 and it was working completely fine for a while. When I try to run autoremove again I get the same error that I got before and it stops working. Now when I boot into Parrot and run ifconfig I see my adapter has changed to wlx(Mac Address) instead of wlan0, it also does this with any other adapters I plug in, I'm not sure what to do, if I run the live version of Parrot OS on a USB everything works fine. Any idea on how to fix this? When I click the WiFi symbol and attempt to connect to my network it just says "configuring interface" with a spinning wheel for a while before stopping and nothings happens, I've tried removing the network and reconnecting with that adapter and a different one but nothing works. I know the drivers are installed because it works out the box and was working fine before I updated everything. Any help would be appreciated thanks in advance. [link] [comments]  |

| Why Wayland is still considered unstable? Posted: 02 Jan 2020 11:04 PM PST I'm about to take the next step and install Linux on my main machine. Though it's 2~3 old PC with i7-7700, 16GB RAM and GTX1080 performance even on GNOME shouldn't be an issue I guess. So what is up with Wayland? As I checked on wiki it's in development since 30 September 2008 and... still unstable? Just to be clear I AM A NOOB. I just read it on Ubuntu release notes, both in Known Issues and Other highlights/notes. The only thing I presume is known for sure is to avoid new ZFS as it's just slow and brings nothing to regular users table. Many thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |

| Printing to PDF in CUPS - any way to have it ask for directory ? Posted: 03 Jan 2020 09:15 AM PST Is there a way to have CUPS ask for save directory when printing to PDF ?

| Problem with dual booting windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 Posted: 03 Jan 2020 04:47 AM PST A little background before I go into the main problem - I have windows installed in a 256GB nvme ssd that came with the laptop. Then I added a 2.5" SSD manually (Samsung Evo 860) for additional space and installing linux in it. The ssd is detected in windows and I was even able to store files in it. So then I tried dual booting my system with windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04, while windows running in the nvme and linux in the 2.5" ssd. I made a bootable usb device with rufus, then shrunk the volume of the ssd which I wanted to install linux in by 100GB using Gparted. Then when I tried the install Ubuntu option I got the following error Force UEFI Installation? with following error message
But the BIOS mode of my laptop is UEFI and no other OS other than windows is installed. Windows 10 came with the laptop, so I assume they must have installed it UEFI mode, since as far as my understanding goes the newer laptops don't use legacy mode anymore. Here is the info of my MSinfo32, which you can check for additional information. So coming back to the error, I clicked on the continue in UEFI mode , which lead me to the partitioning window, where I chose Something else (NOTE: during the previous times when I dual booted, I usually see an option called Install ubuntu along with windows, but I couldn't see it this time and I assumed it is because I am installing in a separate hard drive other than the one in which windows was installed). So I allocated 20 GB for root, 8 GB for swap and rest for home.( I did this with Use as ext4 and during my first time of installation I gave the type for the new parition as primary and when this failed I tried again with logical, but still no luck) So the partitioning went well then during half of the installation process I got the error GRUB installation failed and the following error message
And when I pressed ok, the installation process quit. I don't know what to do after this. Is this happening because of trying to dual boot in two seperate ssds? Could someone please help me with this? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 03 Jan 2020 07:47 AM PST I am running Arch Linux on my desktop and have just reinstalled my base image and started my software setup when I noticed I'm running out of disk space. I've installed Arch countless times, but I haven't familiarized myself with LVMs too much and must have messed up when setting up my system. Here's what it looks like right now: df -h As you can see, my root partition is almost full at 94% of 33GB used. The root partition is on a 500GB SSD and should use 100% of the free space after 250MiB for boot and 16 GiB for swap substracted. Clearly that's not the case so I looked into extending the logical volume and stumbled upon lvresize. It actually looks like it worked as you can see here: lvdisplay /dev/mapper/vg0-root It seems to me like, somehow, that change didn't make it into 'production' and I'm stuck with just a few gigs on root. I would very much appreciate if you could tell me where my mistake is. I'd rather not have to do a reinstall. To give you everything you might need, here's the output of pvdisplay, vgdisplay, lvdisplay and my fstab: pvdisplay vgdisplay lvdisplay /etc/fstab [link] [comments]  |
| Steam play on Manjaro Linux can’t launch games Posted: 03 Jan 2020 03:56 AM PST OS: Manjaro (updated everything just an hour ago or so) CPU: i5 4690k GPU: AMD R9 290 GPU driver: AMDGPU The games I've tried are Risk of Rain 2, Oblivion and Chris Sawyer's Locomotion. I've ran into similar problems with all of them: missing executables. Executing steam in the terminal shows that the game launch was aborted for Oblivion and Locomotion die to the .exe not being found. Navigating to the game files showed the .exe in question, though, and running Loco.exe in wine even launched the game. For Risk of Rain 2 I get a prompt stating the .exe couldn't be found. Navigating to the game files reveals that there indeed are no game files. Verifying integrity and reinstalling didn't solve the issue. Can anyone make sense out of this? [link] [comments]  |
