    I don't like typing out 'systemctl'. I keep pressing tab to finish it. (Bash). But when I make an alias to 'sc' it doesn't autocomplete the arguments. What is the meaning of this?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 09:10 PM PDT

    For example I can do

    systemctl sto[tab] cups[tab] 

    and those tabs will autocomplete to 'stop' and cups.service. But when I do alias sc=systemctlwhen I type out:

    sc sto[tab]....... 

    nothing happens.

    I've googled but I guess I'm googling the wrong things. Is there a name for this and how do I fix it?

    Trouble after update, btrfs snapshot restore took all of my free space

    Posted: 04 May 2021 10:43 AM PDT

    I'm using Arco Linux(Arch but easier to use) with 5.11.15-arch1-2. I am using luks on btrfs with the following subvolumes:@ , @ home. Marked /dev/sda5. I backed up with the snapshots only @

    After an absolutely horrible update everything broke, before I rebooted SDDM crashed and sent me an error message, then the display started acting up, then it wouldn't boot. Long story short everything went to shit.

    However I had a snapshot from some time ago. From the tty I restored it and now my storage is completely full for no reason. I know that btrfs is a copy on write filesystem, and anomalies like these are bound to happen, but I can't find a reliable way to fix the mess that I am in. I've found somewhere that btrfs has a "balance" function, and I tried running this: "sudo btrfs balance status -v /" but I get "No balance found on '/'". Also, this is supposed to rewrite all the data on my disk, and I'm on an SSD, and I've allocated a pretty big amount of space to this "partition". The ssd is pretty old and it doesn't have that many cycles in it anymore. Is there a way to avoid this perhaps? Perhaps I've missed something obvious.

    The output of "btrfs fi df /" Maybe it will help.

    Data, single: total=72.21GiB, used=72.20GiB

    System, single: total=4.00MiB, used=16.00KiB

    Metadata, single: total=2.01GiB, used=1.58GiB

    GlobalReserve, single: total=145.52MiB, used=0.00B

    Even though i'M uSiNG aRCh, I'm a complete moron. If you can, please lend a hand.

    How would i turn this into a shutdown script and where would i put it? Fedora 34

    Posted: 04 May 2021 12:46 PM PDT

    chattr -i /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/KBDBacklitLvl-5af56f53-985c-47d5-920c-f1c531d06852

    echo 0700000002 | xxd -p -r > /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/KBDBacklitLvl-5af56f53-985c-47d5-920c-f1c531d06852

    This fixes the samsung notebook 9 and pro series keyboard backlight, but sometimes (coming from suspend i suspect) it fails to turn back on.

    It needs to run at shutdown because the changes require a restart

    Nvidia question: Should I update my Nvidia driver for no reason other than to stay up to date? If not, how do you know when to?

    Posted: 04 May 2021 12:12 PM PDT

    The longer I frequent these subreddits the more I see people having issues with the newest Nvidia release. It kind of makes me wonder why I should bother. To add to the confusion it can be tricky reading the release notes to these drivers as a beginner, so I'm not always sure when the update is relevant to me.

    It just seems like a lot of hassle I don't need to bother with. But at some point I would need to update, right? So the question then becomes should I update and if so when?

    I don't know what else to do. I am unbelievably frustrated as I have looked at over a dozen walkthroughs and none have worked.

    I have enabled Local Network Share, and a hundred other things. I am at the end of my rope here.

    Does anyone have advice on how to get this to work?

    Linux mint xfce ate all of my ram? What to do now?

    Posted: 04 May 2021 10:42 AM PDT

    I have again tried out linux mint xfce 20.1. I think it ate my most of the ram..

    While multitasking with firefox opened (maybe 4/5 tabs there), I only got available ram is 184mb and free is 141mb.

    caption

    My question is : 1. Shouldn't I worry now? 2. Should I switch to another distro now? 3. I noticed there was a large ram change happened Between with internet connection on and off? 4. If it needs lots of ram, then how xfce is most lightweight?

    Manjaro silently installs Budgie and Gnome

    Posted: 04 May 2021 09:31 AM PDT

    I've got a Manjaro/Windows dual-boot and to my surprise, today when I got into Manjaro, I saw 3 Gnome entries and a Budgie DE entry at login. I usually switch between XFCE and i3 at times, but I did not install Gnome or Budgie. Is this some update gone wrong stuff or is this common on Manjaro? I thought the whole idea was not silently installing stuff without user's knowledge!

    Trying to find a specific desktop environment my professor used

    Posted: 04 May 2021 09:27 AM PDT

    Hello everyone,

    I'm a Linux beginner and I'm trying out different distros and desktop environments. I recently viewed a video one of my professors recorded on his computer and I couldn't find the exact desktop he used. The open windows he is using are all stacked on top of another at the top of his screen.

    Can anyone help me identify it?

    Removing feature inside Ubuntu settings

    Is it possible to remove Bluetooth and Thunderbolt features from Ubuntu settings? My laptop doesn't support neither of those things so I don't need them.

    Sometimes when I open konsole, there is a percent sign at the top and then it skips a few lines (image below). Does anyone else get this unusual beahvior, and do you know any possible fixes? It goes away by entering 'clear', but its annoying regardless.

    Should i try out another distro?

    Posted: 03 May 2021 10:42 PM PDT

    Before dual booting linux with windows 10, I have tried out Linux mint xfce 20.1 in live usb. * i think i don't like the ui.. It sometimes looked boring. * Another thing is I couldn't get my wifi connection in there. * But I really liked the smoothness and the ability to multitasking faster in my 4gb ram without no heating issue.

    My question is: 1. Should i try another distro or stick with it? If yes, then which one? 2. Will there be any problem if I try out some distro in my pc with usb. 3. Can i get be able to get the wifi connection and 2gb Nvidia gpu card.

    N.B: I don't like play any game in my pc :)

    Namaste, I am new to Linux and I have tried to install Ubuntu, Mint, Manjaro but they keep getting stuck at logo screen whereas Manjaro doesn't even install it keeps getting stuck at

    Welcome to Manjaro! And switches off itself.

    Ubuntu gets stuck in loading screen and shuts down itself.

    Mint also keeps getting stuck in loading screen.

    I have used both of them in recovery mode but the resolution is bad.

    Raspberry Pi for the living room

    Posted: 04 May 2021 07:55 AM PDT

    Hi, I hope that's related and that I can get some help, what will be the cheapest RPi that will give me a generally smooth video watching (1080p max) and internet browsing experience?

    Also, what is a recommended distro to install on it? It will be used as a media computer for my TV in my living room.

    Thanks in advance and may Cthulhu bless your good souls

    EDIT: Assuming i go for RPi 4, is 2GB of RAM enough?

    Hello all. I have been using linux for almost 5 years now. I started out with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and now I am on 20.04. As I aged so did my hardware. My laptop CPU is i5-3337U and its really old now. I was thinking of migrating to other distro from Ubuntu.

    How is LibertyOS for daily use? Their website does say that pretty much everyone from business to professional gamers can use it. What are your views on it?
