| Isn't chroot a simple way for someone else to log into my system? Posted: 01 Mar 2021 12:39 PM PST I mean, if I will go to the live enviroment, its super easy for me to chroot to my basic system. Isn't that dangerous, that someone could steal my data that way? [link] [comments]  |
| A few questions from a new guy, trying to get into it but need a starting point. Posted: 01 Mar 2021 11:40 AM PST Contextual info: currently on windows 10 -- somewhat expert user and have a basic-ish understanding of the shell, coding, and what-not
UPDATE: Thank y'all for the input. I figured something like mint or Pop_os would be the best (windows-like) starter distro. I also have a book called "Linux Bible" by Christopher Negus (9e) that's T H I C C asf (ISBN: 978-1-118-99987-5). My guess is I should get around to reading it lol. I've tinkered with VMs a little already, and I think I may be ready to either resurrect my old XPS 13 (+ some repairs) or pull the trigger on a system76 or something similar (Star Labtop? Purism Librem 14?) to get a linux-dedicated machine. I'll likely keep my windows laptop around so I can still play CS, but other than that I want a Linux system for work/school purposes. Again, thank you all, I'm happy to be joining the community. [link] [comments]  |

| Looking for websites like OverTheWire to learn more about the command line through playing Posted: 28 Feb 2021 08:03 PM PST Long-time windows user here. I can code pretty well in python but I learned it mainly through competitive challenges on different coding challenges websites. I want to do the same thing to learn more about linux and I came across OverTheWire which has taught me a lot in the past few days. What are other websites that are similar to OTW?

| Are Fedora RPM files installable on Opensuse Leap/Tumbleweed? Posted: 01 Mar 2021 10:19 AM PST Recently, I've discovered that .rpm files are also used by OpenSuse. Seeing that many of the software I use is only distributed via .rpms, are Fedora .rpm files installable on Opensuse? [link] [comments]  |
| Low fps in games and a good amount of screen tearing Posted: 01 Mar 2021 08:35 AM PST I installed ArcoLinux a month ago and I have been having some problems related to fps and screen tearing. I have 8GB RAM,an i5 7400 and a GTX 750 Ti. I have installed the nvidia drivers through the repository. I'm also dual booting Windows 10 and Linux in different drives. On Windows I get about 300 fps on Minecraft, however on Linux I can't even get over 10 fps. I don't know if the GPU is not being used for some unknown reason, since I don't have an integrated graphics card, or something is wrong with the drivers. Any suggestions are helpful, so feel free to voice your opinions. [link] [comments]  |
| Is there a way to view what processes are using frame buffer? Posted: 01 Mar 2021 08:32 AM PST Is there a way to view what processes are using frame buffer? Is there only one process which mediates interaction with frame buffer for other processes? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 01 Mar 2021 11:20 AM PST Hi all, I'm not exactly a noob but I do need some advice. I have an older PC that used to be my main, but it was always having problems. I am now having booting problems and I suspect the SSD is the culprit. (tried to reinstall ubuntu but it keeps crashing) Are there any bootable diagnostic tools that I could put on a flash drive to see if the SSD is having issues? Thanks, Rada [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for some help with installing some software Posted: 01 Mar 2021 09:06 AM PST Hello! New Linux user here. I thought I was pretty tech savvy but the process of installing some software in Linux has apparently defeated me. Perhaps somebody could help me out or point me in the wrong direction? I am running 64-bit Ubuntu Mate. No problems with the installed software managers. I am trying to install the Vintage Basic program available at http://www.vintage-basic.net/ Tried to run the precompiled binary and also tried to compile from source. No luck. Can someone help me out? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| Linux 5.* on Ryzen 5 2400G unusable Posted: 01 Mar 2021 01:02 PM PST Title. my setup (Debian Testing on a system with the mentioned APU) was perfetly functional up until I tried to upgrade the kernel past 4.19 which seems to be impossibe for desktop use. Nothing seems to work, things I tried so far:
what I figured out so far: the problem is probably around the amdgpu driver in connection with the new kernel or the Vega 11 iGPU itself but I am lost now. anything I tried so far either results in crash+reboot during the boot process, boot process hanging with black screen or garbage colors showing on the screen once the respective kernel podule and drivers are loaded. what I want to achieve: graphical multi-monitor support with a kernel newer than 4.19, using the iGPU as my primary one. I am much more familiar with the userspace, the intricacies of the kernel are mostly unfamiliar for me so any pointers, suggestions or advices are welcome. [link] [comments]  |
| How do I remove the "Booting in Insecure Mode" Posted: 01 Mar 2021 05:25 AM PST Hello! I've been hopping between linux and windows since the last week, but one of my latest windows installations temporarily made my Linux Live Installs unable to detect the WiFi Adapter, thing I never had issue with in the past. After messing with the BIOS and setting it to default, resetting keys and what not, plus messing with the mokutil, the adapters are detected again. Whoever now everytime I boot a distro with grub, be it installed or live, with secure boot on or off in the BIOS, this message is always triggered. I've tried solutions online such as mokutil --disable-validation but to no avail. I've also tried to change boot order through efibootmrg and making it boot from grubx64.efi instead of shimx64.efi but it still didn't work, the same message still shows up. I'm getting desperate, that wasn't a thing that was there before, and now it doesn't go away. Please help me. [link] [comments]  |
| Getting a crontab and at started? Posted: 01 Mar 2021 12:01 PM PST I'm trying to do something to test the chrontab functionality. I understand that chrontab -e is used the get into the editor. I want it to repeat the message "Sinnoh confirmed", every 2 minutes, I understand I would use "2 * * * * echo "Sinnoh Confirmed" > pokemon >/dev/null 2>&1" for the syntax but I do know how to get the this task running after that. Thank your for any help that can be offered. [link] [comments]  |
| I can't get Ubuntu to accept amdgpu-pro! Posted: 01 Mar 2021 11:37 AM PST New to Linux and I have been trying for over a week. I have an R9 390 and I need at least the 17.40 drivers. I started with the 20.4.2, but I kept getting black screens on the login page. I had to blacklist the radeon driver to get past it, or put another gpu(nvidia) in the computer to use it. Either way, once I got to the part where I install the amd drivers, there were dependency errors. I rolled back to an older set of headers, but then I couldn't get the GUI to show at all on either gpu. I am new to linux, so I don't know how to navigate in text-only mode. I assume there is a way to get to the driver install folder and run it without the GUI, but I couldn't find a guide on that. I switched to an older version of linux, 16.4.6, but the gpu drivers I found said they support 16.4.3. I reinstalled that one and didn't update, but there was still the bad kernel error. Without updates, that version was at 16.4.1, which I guess is too old? So I just updated it again and same thing as the last version: if I reboot into older header with Grub, it just gives me text only mode. Can someone please just give me a link to an actually-available version of Linux that supports an actually-available AMD gpu driver?? It seems like no matter what I do, I just can't get to a point where the numbers on the driver and the numbers on the kernel match. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Audio troubles, I'm so frustrated Posted: 01 Mar 2021 05:37 AM PST I've never had no trouble with audio, even over Bluetooth. Yesterday while using my computer my headphones ran out of power, so I plugged them into the front audio jacks and everything worked as expected, I do this all the time. This morning I get up to join a lesson, I connect my headphones over Bluetooth, and there's no audio. I open a terminal and hit backspace, and I can hear the error sound(gnome terminal plays a sound, the setting for it is in the shell though). There is no audio anywhere else. I tried switching devices, using gnome and using pavucontrol, whatever I did, the audio meters would not move. I plugged in the headphones with the wire again, and it started working. It's stuck on the headphones output! No matter what I set the default to. I try restarting the computer, and it was the same. I kept messing with the settings and restarting, on a random restart, with a lot of plugging in and unplugging, I could get chrome to play through the Bluetooth headphones correctly, gnome's test tool still didn't work, other applications still didn't work. I knew that my audio worked ever before, so I loaded a backup from a few days ago. I boot up, connect the headphones open gnome audio settings and... THE METER FOR THE HEADPHONES OUTPUT WAS DISPLAYING THE VOLUME LEVEL OF MY WEBCAM'S MIC INPUT! What? What do I even do??? I click the test button, and pavucontrol says it's outputting to the Spdif! Why? Why spdif? Why is the terninal's error sound going to the right device, why chrome's and why not the shell's and other applications? I am beyond confused and frustrated, doesn't matter whicj device I set as the default in gnome or in pavucontrol, a bunch of things play out of the spdif now. There is nothing connected to the spdif. I can't just turn off that card because it's the same card as the front panel jacks, and I use those. [link] [comments]  |

| Get an input/output error when trying to start terminal Posted: 01 Mar 2021 09:59 AM PST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfVH54edAHU&t=186s Hi so I've used the video above as a tutorial, trying to start up the terminal and realised it gives an 'input/output' error. I tried using other things like Firefox ESR and it crashes immediately. Sorry if this question is trivial, am quite new to this. [link] [comments]  |

| Getting higher CPU usages while watching Youtube videos compare to windows Posted: 28 Feb 2021 07:17 PM PST I am using Manjaro KDE having kernal version of 5.11.1 . My machine have ryzen 3500u cpu and integrated Vega 8 graphic. Often when i watch youtube videos my cpu usages is around 20-30% , but on windows its ridiculously low. Its not a big issue but i can feel little heat and fan keeps ramping and its so annoying for me. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 01 Mar 2021 09:27 AM PST So, I've been using Linux as my daily os for at least 1.5 years now, and have figured out how to use it on a daily, and am comfortable using the CLI, and, most importantly, google, for when things go wrong. I still, at least not yet, have not found a project to really scratch the "tinker with something until either it works or I put my head through a wall, then do it again, and when it works,find a new thing to tinker with" itch. I feel stupid just asking due to the open nature of Linux, but I've not really found anything like hackintoshing or Windows Ameliorated edition for Linux, probably due to the open nature, especially compared to the walled gardens of Apple. I'm running a fairly low spec machine, with a core 2 vpro quad core, 4 gigs ddr 2 and a 500 GB HDD. I'm running Xubuntu 20.04, a fork of Ubuntu, which, in itself is a fork of debian, which is common knowledge but figured I would restate in case a true noob ever reads this. Been thinking about dual booting with arch or manjaro, but figured I would ask around to see if anyone has any ideas. [link] [comments]  |
