| DO NOT download etcher from etcher.NET! Posted: 31 Oct 2020 04:35 PM PDT I made this mistake while going from windows 10 to pop os. If you're going to use etcher (balena etcher) to flash a usb go to [balena.io/etcher/]. This is their real site! etcher.NET gives you nothing but a bogus installer that tries to get you to install several unwanted software, before proceeding to NOT install etcher. This is what I get for trying Bing, which recommended this above the legitimate site. edit: grammar [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 01 Nov 2020 06:14 AM PST It's weird that each has it's own bug that the other doesn't have. Same thing happens on my basically untouched VM version of Ubuntu 18.04. When in GUI mode, pressing space should bring up the tools menu with a colour wheel. Too lazy to open an issue on the Githab page. My phone is off and out of reach, how can 2factorAuth?

| Starting with Linux : the method I recommend Posted: 01 Nov 2020 08:23 AM PST I started with Linux 22 years ago. I never gave up. At home I only use Linux. I have tried (and worked with) a lot of distributions. My recommended method to start with this operating system : no virtualization and no dualboot ... but use of cheap second hand machines working with one operating system. My point of view is of course debatable ... What do you think of it ? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 01 Nov 2020 06:10 AM PST I'm learning web development in the time I have before starting CS degree through The Odin Project. In the first steps they recommended using Linux for programming to avoid bugs. Will using VirtualBox be good for that? I built my computer a month ago so I think I'm fine in terms of hardware. Thank you very much! [link] [comments]  |
| I still have Cursor of set issue with pen-tablet KDE Posted: 01 Nov 2020 09:21 AM PST Hi, This is strange...everything worked fine on my Manjaro KDE until I upgraded to a new 4k monitor.... naturally like any other user I used display scaling to 150%..

| Count every time a word appears in a file, even on a same line Posted: 01 Nov 2020 11:27 AM PST Hello, I know this question sounds easy but even after a lot of time looking on Google I can't find an appropriate answer. So I have a file with some sequences and I want to count all occurrences of a word inside this file : So alright, I have the lines where this pattern appears, but What could I use instead ?

| Can I run a custom Linux on an Ex_Word ( EW-G570C) Posted: 01 Nov 2020 06:21 AM PST Hello there, here in Germany many people are using language computers (Casio Ex-Word), but I wonder, if it is possible, to run a custom linux on it. I can't find any information of the chipset and the device itself hasn't any internet connection or other options to make up a wired connection, or to import data otherwise. Is it possible to run a custom version on it? What do you think? I just judt found one post, which is about a Japanese older model with a USB port. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 01 Nov 2020 09:08 AM PST Sometimes I need to kill all my Firefox instances at once. I ised to do this via "killall firefox". Then It changed to "killall Mainthread" which already got confusing and now, with the latest(?) Firefox update I can not kill it fast via killall. [link] [comments]  |

| I only want to use Linux and have for the most part but recently ran into a problem. Posted: 01 Nov 2020 07:38 AM PST So I bought a controller that's programmable but it only comes with a EXE file and doesn't install. My computer isn't the best is there a easier way then downloading iso, partitioning, installing and whatnot Edit : using arch with xfce de Only need to run a self sustaining EXE file. No install required. [link] [comments]  |
| How to change the Qt theme running i3? Posted: 01 Nov 2020 01:36 AM PST Hi, I am running arch linux with i3. I am wondering how I can change the theme of Qt programs. I have set my GTK theme to Adwaita, but at the moment all the programs running Qt look really ugly. Is there a way to change the default Qt theme to Adwaita, or maybe just change it so it doesn't look really bad? Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 01 Nov 2020 06:08 AM PST Hello! I'm using linux mint with XFCE4 and would like to be able to disable the "upload to imgur" option in the xfce4-screenshooter. I have found this post (and downloaded the .patch file): This may sound a little silly, but how does one go about applying the patch from a .patch file? Thanks in advance for help!

| Posted: 01 Nov 2020 05:40 AM PST My mom was getting rid of her old 10.1 inch aspire one. I love the size for lab use. It came with windows xp. Which is useless to me. So i want to give it a second life. While looking up on distros to install, i noticed alot of ditros dropped 32bit support. I have intel n270(1.6ghz Single core), with 1 gig of ram. I currently have a 2gig stick coming in the mail along with an ssd to help with boot up. I gave LXLE a try yesterday. Worked fine. Wasnt super impressed tho. What are some good distro for low end systems that still support 32bit [link] [comments]  |

| Understanding Linux Documentation Posted: 31 Oct 2020 09:56 PM PDT I'm currently taking an infamous operating systems class at my university, and yes, I do understand now why it is so. We're working with Linux, and before this class, I barely knew what Linux was, so here I am. We were kind of just thrown into the deep end and was asked to write a LKM. Now I was able to complete the assignment, and I understand how it works but for the life of me, I do not understand Linux documentation. The only way I completed the assignment was with a million google searches. So here's what's happening. I'm on kernel.org and I'm browsing through the directories and find myself at the header file that I need for my assignment, https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/plain/include/linux/sched.h?h=v4.9.6 I open it and I'm just completely lost, like there are barely any notes that can give me some idea of how to use any of those functions. I asked the TA in my class about this and he was just like, there's notes in the header file, and in my mind I'm like, I'm aware of how useless those notes are. So here's my question, where do I find documentation that actually describes to me how I can use kernel module functions in a C program that's not in some alien language. Linux has so much potential to be awesome, but I will never know it is until I can understand what I'm looking at. Tl;dr I'm looking for good documentation that can show me how to utilize existing kernel modules to write C programs that are loadable kernel modules. Something that is nice to read like Oracle Java API documentation. [link] [comments]  |
| Virtual box extension pack problems Posted: 01 Nov 2020 01:06 AM PST i am trying to use the extension packs for virtual box but when i check the extension packs it says i have one called VNC and it says version r0. i don't know how to get that extension back i looked on forums and the virtual box manual but it doesn't say how to get it back without compiling from source which i don't know how to do. is there any way to get that extension pack from anywhere or fix the problem. i have already deleted the folder and reinstalled multiple times but it stays the same way.

| Audio cuts out repeatedly every few minutes Posted: 31 Oct 2020 10:00 PM PDT Hello, I recently wiped my device and installed a fresh new copy of Manjaro Linux. However I have found that when I connect to my Bluetooth headphones, all the audio cuts out every few minutes for about 10-15 seconds. My system is up to date, running kernel 5.8, with 5.6 installed. How can I fix this? (Newer Sony noise-cancelling headphones) I also believe that pulse audio is installed onto this copy aswell. (I had my system out for a month for it to be repaired. I am currently getting back to using Linux as my daily driver.) [link] [comments]  |
| Can't run IBKR's TWS after installing Posted: 01 Nov 2020 01:10 AM PDT https://i.ibb.co/jkyqgKr/tws.png https://www1.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=17714 Followed the instructions in the website the initial launch after installation works but I can't run it anymore. [link] [comments]  |
| What's the difference between LXDE and LXQt? Posted: 31 Oct 2020 05:00 PM PDT At first I thought they were apart of the same software family, but apparently they're two completely different projects, both designed for old or low power hardware? What's the difference between them, and what are their pros and cons? [link] [comments]  |
| Big problem after failed installation, I need help, please. Posted: 01 Nov 2020 12:20 AM PDT I have this old computer with a GA-78LMT-S2PT (rev 4.1) motherboard and had Lubuntu installed and it was working fine yesterday, and updated some stuff, today it froze every time I turned it on, So I made it worse trying to fix it. I had a copy of Linux-Lite so decided to give it a try since the Lubuntu was not responding, got to the part where you choose language and location and it froze. Tried again and went for the option to install it directly. It began and froze again, left it there for like an hour and nothing changed. Decided to force shut it down, I did and turn it on again, it did turn on and showed the normal screen with the boot options then followed by the normal white text for like 1 or 2 seconds before the screen goes black and the machine restart. From what I've gathered looking for a solution I suspect I corrupted the BIOS? What Do you think? and more importantly What can I do? I can only access the CMOS screen but dont know enough how to use it or if it can help me, I tried to boot different distros from usb even one that doesnt need install but it behaves the same, just restarts in the same point. Please help me, I need to continue my work. [link] [comments]  |
