| Posted: 29 Jul 2020 09:06 AM PDT I have so many questions that I couldnt really get an answer for after googling for like 20 mins, so I thought what better place to ask than the reddit community. Ok so here, I'll just rattle off some questions I have rn and I'll probably definitely add to this post later. edit: Also i'm using Gnome

| How many of you that are students use Linux as a daily driver? Posted: 28 Jul 2020 05:31 PM PDT I am willing to use Linux because of the fact that I like it and feel comfortable using it, but compatibility could be one of the factors that I worry about, how could I get around that? Is there really any significant difference in compatibility speaking of education tools? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 29 Jul 2020 02:51 PM PDT I have Linux Fedora workspace and I have tl-wn821n v5 WiFi adapter. Green diode didn't working but I can see my home wireless network. When I'm trying to connect it's not connecting. What's going on? I'm totally noob in Linux and sorry for my bad English [link] [comments]  |
| how to change default directory opening program? Posted: 29 Jul 2020 11:58 AM PDT When I click "browse local files" in Steam client it opens a game's install directory in my file manager (pcmanfm-qt, I have lxqt desktop on Arch), that's correct. However some other programs, (so far found it to happen with Factorio and Terraria) which have similar function to open a directory open it in firefox instead (Steam also used to do that but not anymore). Here's my ~.config/mimeapps.list: https://hastebin.com/ozitecexic.sql I don't see firefox here being set as file browser so why is firefox used for opening directories? Is there another config that those programs might be checking? [link] [comments]  |
| Very noobish Markdown questions Posted: 29 Jul 2020 10:54 AM PDT I know, it's not Linux question per se, but Markdown come to my knowledge through the Luke Smith's channel, so I put it in here anyway. :-) Markdown caught my interest as a alternative to the other Office sweets, mainly because it'scompatibility and it's distraction-free nature. But as a lifelong MS Office user, with zero knowledge of Markdown language (except for few videos), I have some basic questions: 1) How can I change and colorize fonts? 2) Can I convert docx (f. e.) format to Markdown format? 3) How can I make paragraphs? 4) How can I move text (center, right, block)?

| Posted: 29 Jul 2020 10:53 AM PDT I'm using Lubuntu 18.04 32-bit. I've been having odd Wifi connectivity issues. It says I'm connected to my Wifi network, but somehow I have no connectivity, I can't access anything on the internet. Using Ethernet seems to work just fine though. How can I fix this?

| Adding python scripts to $PATH variable without having to use “Python3 script.py” Posted: 29 Jul 2020 07:01 AM PDT So, I started writing a few python scripts to do odd jobs such as encoding/decoding base64 strings, identifying hashes etc. I put these scripts in my /home/scripts directory. My question is, I want these scripts to be able to run in the terminal as commands without having to use something like "Python3 script.py ... ". I have tried adding them to the $PATH variable and altering the .bashrc and .profile file, however I still have to run them through the python file. Short of writing a bash script to middle man the commands, is there any easy ways to do this? If this isn't the correct sub, just let me know and I will change the post. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 29 Jul 2020 03:11 PM PDT I've been using a distro based on Debian as a media server and I've created a few new users. For some of them the shell is very basic (only white text, tab does not autocomplete, etc.) and for some of them it is more user friendly (multiple colors, tab autocompletes, etc.). Is there a way to specify which user gets which flavor of shell? Its very frustrating to not have those quality of life features when logged in over ssh and it is confusing that it seems to vary. Any advice is greatly appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| How to learn about uefi bios mbr gpt Posted: 29 Jul 2020 02:54 PM PDT I don't have knowledge of these things but I think its essential to know these especially if using linux. Can anyone explain these and what should be known to a linux user (or just provide some reference)? [link] [comments]  |
| Resources for learning sed & awk? Posted: 29 Jul 2020 04:53 AM PDT I'm interested in learning more about using sed & awk, are there any particularly good resources that anyone can point me towards? Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Can I use TimeShift to restore backups "from the future"? Posted: 29 Jul 2020 02:25 PM PDT I really don't want to lose my setup so I'm thinking about having two layers of backup:
Now, let's say my disk dies. Can I just buy a new one, apply the image which is probably a few weeks old and then use Timeshift to restore the latest backup? [link] [comments]  |
| Display Problems in New Install of Kubuntu 20.4 Posted: 29 Jul 2020 09:15 AM PDT I have recently installed Kubuntu 20.4 on a Macbook Pro (Early 2012) by using a USB stick. I have run Kubuntu on it before just fine. There were no errors during installation. So, once I logged in, I tried to open Firefox, I wanted to download Chrome, but when I clicked on to open Firefox, the window went way over to the right side of the screen and disappeared. I thought I just needed to change the display settings but when I tried to load the settings, it did the same thing. Konsole gives me this problem too. I do not know how to fix this and was hoping to get some help here. I have included a link below to a video on Google Drive that shows this in action. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1A3qiuvi7Gitpoc8O_0cntMLtd25qATaT/view?usp=sharing [link] [comments]  |

| Why can’t linux run in UEFI instead of legacy boot? Posted: 29 Jul 2020 12:29 PM PDT Why is BIOS tweaking to enable legacy boot and disabling secure boot necessary to install Linux without getting an error? Why can't it just boot into normal UEFI and install like Windows would? In my case I was installing Ubuntu 20.04 and got an error message "Unable to install GRUB in dev/sda2" Fatal error that was solved enabling legacy boot and disabling secure boot [link] [comments]  |

| Wine help - So close to getting my only windows program to finally work. Posted: 29 Jul 2020 02:45 AM PDT I have on and off again been trying to get my sole work program which is windows and mac only to work through wine. I made loads of progress yesterday since a usb device that would never work finally works. The issue I have is this... if I move the window in any direction it starts to get bigger and bigger. It would be fine if it just full screened it, but the app is always on top and I need to access other programs at the same time. Does anyone know any window management tools used specifically with wine? Or has someone had an issue where the window will just resize and not let me make the window smaller again? It is a proprietary work app and its an electron app if that helps. I am on Fedora 32. [link] [comments]  |

| How to close terminal without suspending the process Posted: 28 Jul 2020 08:34 PM PDT Hi all, I tried looking up if there was a way to close terminal AFTER launching an application but I wasn't able to find an answer For example I launch idle to start python but I can't close the terminal window without closing idle as well. Question 2: If I want to search "Spam spam spam egg" on terminal using firefox, how would I do that? I tried doing "firefox spam spam spam egg" but it opens multiple pages with spam spam spam and egg on the search bar. Sorry if I didn't explain it well, pls lmk if it sounds confusing to read thanks!
