    When running games such as terraria and Minecraft, cpu temperature is higher with the same settings as windows. Any reason why? (Usually 10c higher than windows)

    Hi Guys, when installing Kubuntu, should I select "Install 3rd party Software"?

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 12:24 PM PDT

    I have an Asus Vivobook S510UQ with 8GB of RAM and Nvidia GeForce 940MX. I had issue with the drivers for Nvidia and I was wondering if those issues come from the "Install 3rd party software" option during the installation. Could you please let me know?

    Is Fedora KDE Plasma officially recognized?

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 07:14 AM PDT

    The official Fedora website is getfedora.org, while kde, xfce versions are available on fedoraproject.org. so are the latter officially maintained and updated by the fedora developers?

    Some tips for starters, from starter

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 03:05 PM PDT

    I am future linux user doing research on various stuff. I think I may have easy answers for some technical etc. questions that would come from typical Windows users out there, who for some reason decide to migrate from linux. Let's go:

    1. What is linux distro?
      - Linux, unlike Windows etc. is "modular" system so there is no unified set of all system parts. Main part of linux is system "core" called kernel, and other parts get picked and assembled together, forming "distros", so stuff like user interface and installer etc. are added to "barebone system". I won't suggest you what distro to pick, though I am personally learning towards Kubuntu 20.04 LTS, and I am seeing it as sort of "windows 7 of linux".
    2. What is DE (desktop environment)?
      - One common part of complete distro - it is user interface (so defines how system looks), coming with bunch of preinstalled software (similar to how windows comes with notepad, paint etc.). It impacts user experience a lot, and different users have various preferences. I personally find KDE fitting for people who look for something similar to Windows. Advanced users tend to talk about WMs (window managers), which are sort of "barebone" desktop environment replacements.
    3. Any non-obvious options to pick when installing linux?
      - Depending on distro, installer may ask what filesystem you may wanna pick (ext4 is safe pick without going into technical details), or whether you want encrypt drive or use LVM (logical volume management) - if you don't know what your doing i recommend both these options to be unchecked.
    4. How do I install drivers on linux?
      - Drivers are built in system for most devices so you do need to install anything. Most known exception is Nvidia Geforce graphic card drivers. Drivers for linux are installable like any other software, and if you pick option to allow "additional proprietary drivers" during install (if your distro installer has it) then it should install by default. For some devices there is additional utility software that might make experience better, like "hplip" for HP printers.
    5. How do I install software?
      - Most software is available in distro's "application repository" known also as "repo", which is basically software center. Modern desktop environments come with some sort of software center application that lets you easily browse applications and install them in phone-like fashion (like google play). Software that comes with system and does the complicated work behind your back is called "software manager". You can also install applications via command line by command that calls package manager, together with name of application you wanna install. If application is not there, but has linux version available then it will often be available either in 3rd party application repository (known also as PPA), or there is download link (or install instruction) on application website. Windows-only software might run via compatibility layer called WINE, but it is whole another topic.
    6. How is gaming on linux? Can I expect future progress here?
      - Valve actively works on improving linux for gaming. A lot of games work, for steam games check https://www.protondb.com/. One compatibility software called Proton is embedded in Steam and allows you to easily launch "windows-only games" available on Steam. Another solution is Lutris, which is fairly user-friendly program that uses WINE internally, and can be used to attempt running any windows software. I had decent "linux trial" experience with installing old games from ISO files via lutris, with help of AcetoneISO software for ISO file mounting. Ancient games might work better on linux than on modern windows. The biggest problem with linux gaming are multiplayer games that use specific "multiplayer anti-cheat software". Some of such software work do invasive stuff that are not yet supported/fooled by WINE. Notable examples of games that do not work are Fortnite, PUBG, Rainbow Six Siege, Valorant, Black Desert Online etc. - basically anything that uses Easy Anti Cheat or Battleye will not work.
    7. How do I pick destination folder for installed software? Also on windows I tend to copy application folder, copy on another PC and run application. Is there anything like this on linux?
      - Applications install to "standard location" on linux by design. The design philosophy here is that applications share common libraries. If we simplify it and call libraries equivalents of .dll files on windows, then all software that is "installed normally" shares big common set of "linux equivalent of dll files", which is possible by keeping the design the way it is. They usually get added as installed to software center / application list etc, so it is easy to run them without worrying about where exactly they are installed (phone style). If you want to copy application to USB drive or want it to exist in "standalone" manner then you need to use appropiate "application sandboxing" software - "appimage" is particularly fitting for copying between computers. With all that said, keep in mind that installing random library versions from 3rd party repositories is considered harmful for system's integrity.
    8. What is state of work software?
      - Microsoft Office doesn't run, Adobe software doesn't run, Autocad doesn't run, Visual Studio doesn't run etc. For working with videos there is DaVinci Resolve, for music production FL Studio seems to "somewhat work" under WINE etc.
    9. Any common linux memes I can stumble upon?
      - "I use arch btw", "systemd sucks", "wayland sucks", "vim vs IDE", "vim vs emacs", "lonix sux" etc.
    10. Okay, but anyway why should I pick linux?
      - Many reasons, depending on your expectations, principles etc. as PC user. Linux is lightweight (as in resource usage), transparent (community-driven, code is fully available), not depending on actions of 1 "owner" company, expected to stay long-term the way it works for long future, is very friendly for "power users" etc. Some political reasons also exist.

    Sorry for any factual errors, though I believe that even when something is skewed or oversimplified then it also contributes to more-or-less understanding something in correct way.

    Hi,

    Trying to use an intel dh61cr motherboard with antix linux, all seems to work fine except for audio which is seemingly not being detected, through either front panel or motherboard io.

    Thanks for any advice.

    Get my Pi online using global IPv6 address, but how?

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 01:38 PM PDT

    Hey guys,

    I am at a complete lose, maybe someone here can give me the right pointers. So my ISP is not providing an IPv4 address by using DS-Lite. Now I want to make some raspberry pi services available for the internet without having do deal with any extra VPN stuff. Now if I understand correctly and please point out where I am going wrong, I could achieve this by:

    1. Set my pi's address configuration to slaac
    2. Disable privacy extension
    3. Expose the Pi on the router

    With steps 1 & 2 I should get a stable IP address. Step 3 should make the router firewall allow traffic for the stable IP address that was the result of 1 & 2. Now nothing, and I mean, really nothing seems to work. I know the issue is probably not super easy, but in theory could this work?

    The problem now is, nothing works as I expect it to work and I can't tell if my execution is shit or my idea is shit. I don't understand what really manages all of this on my ubuntu-server, the global address can be reached from within my network, but not from the outside despite the host being exposed, the ddclient for dyndns only seems to publish the network routing prefix and subnet id, but not the host identifier, yada yada. I don't seem to get any of it. Sorry guys.

    processor type

    uname -p x86_64

    hardware platform

    uname -i x86_64 ```

    When do "machine hardware name", "processor type", and "hardware platform" differ? Can you give me an example of this?

    Is is possible to run a complete desktop remotely using SSH?

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 12:54 PM PDT

    Greetings fellow humans, human fellas.

    I want to runna full Linux desktop envrionment(Gnome) remotely via SSH. This similar to remote desktop access.

    I connected to the server pc from my client machine using

    ssh -X user@host

    I can launch specific applications from ther terminal.

    IE.

    piper Launches the GUI app Piper on my client machine.

    However, when I attempt to start a full Gnome desktop.

    gnome-session

    I am unable to get a full desktop.

    Is it possible to perform this. If so, what would be the implications as Wayland replaces Xorg?

    P.S the host is using Fedora, the client is running Pop 20.10.

    Both are running a full desktop envrionment but on the client, I booted to a terminal interfsce tt3.

    Spam Email - Checking for any issues

    Posted: 28 Jun 2021 09:07 AM PDT

    Hi all. I use simplelogin.io to manage inbound emails. Today I got a quarantined message from them that they let me download as a .eml file. I tried to take a look at the email in Evolution with (what I thought) were disabled external connections. No email ever opened.

    Looking through my pihole logs, I see a connectiont to "r3.o.lencr.org" which appears to be some degree of malware but I cannot find anything on my system that looks to be related. A couple minutes later there were around 100 attempted connections to "hpae3b70" and "hpae3b70.home" but can't find any information regarding what these may be. About 30 attempts repeated half an hour later but I had since blacklisted the domain. It has now been 40 minutes and no further attempts have been logged.

    I'm running Debian 10, I've looked through system processes to the best of my ability, as well as used chkrootkit. "netstat -an" didn't show any concerning connections

    What else can I check? Thank you in advance!

    Edit: I may just be a paranoid idiot. It doesn't look like evolution can open .eml files, the address I thought was malware is just a Let's Encrypt address, and the hpae3b70 may be related to the HP printer on my network. Still happy to get any feedback you all have!
