How to increase display saturation in linux Posted: 28 Oct 2021 09:56 AM PDT So I'm pretty used to using 100 percent saturation in windows 10 but can't find any way to do the same in linux. Is there any way to do that? Hardware - Cpu - Intel i7 7500u Ram - 16 gb Gpu - Amd radeon r7 m440 Os - Pop OS 21.04 Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] |
Changing from dual boot to Linux as main OS Posted: 28 Oct 2021 03:15 AM PDT I currently run dual boot Linux and windows on my laptop but because Linux runs a lot smoother and other various reasons I Willis like to change to Linux as my main and only OS. Where can I start with removing windows from my drive and letting Linux install onto the main portion ? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 27 Oct 2021 07:20 PM PDT Hello Linux for Noobs Community! I hope you all are doing well. Today I began using my computer as normal: Play retro videogames, listen to retro music, update packages and other stuff. I did the usual sudo apt update + sudo apt upgrade and it seems there was a new update for the kisak mesa stable drivers called 21.2.1. I proceeded with the install plus other packages and business was as usual. But then, the screen stutter nation attacked! It was awful, the screen stutter began subtly, but then it became worse overtime. I decided to look on the internet and try to solve the issue. For example: I tried to disable some extensions and restart the laptop. But the issue prevailed and stayed. So I decided to look at the packages that were recently updated, and there they were. The Mesa Stable Kisak Drivers. So yeah, for all the folks that are using this drivers, beware. On another note, should I keep my system as it is or should I revert back to my timeshift backup from yesterday? Thanks for reading this post and/or answering it. PD: Right now, Gnome Shell is sitting at its most "humble" RAM usage: 7 GBs. That's crazy, am I right fellas? [link] [comments] |
Linix mint with hp laptop drivers Posted: 28 Oct 2021 02:05 PM PDT Iam thinking to install that os into my laptop and I am concern about drivers so i checked on the manufacturer site if my laptop drivers support Linux or not and i found it supporting Linux it but they didn't mention which distro so is that fine ?

Visual shell for searching command names/descriptions Posted: 28 Oct 2021 10:33 AM PDT Is there any kind of visual shell for Unix-like systems that can be used to search for commands by their name or description in case we can't remember the name? For instance, there are commands such as Thank you everyone in advance. P.S. I would appreciate clear answers/references. I don't need lessons :) [link] [comments] |

Posted: 28 Oct 2021 01:29 PM PDT I have 3 SanDisk ultra plus A1 cards of various capacities. I have tried to use Balena to etch Pop OS, Ubuntu, and Batocera. Even if it passes verification; they won't boot. I've tried two different windows machines with two different card readers. Most of the time the verification fails. This is my first experience with Linux. These cards are a few years old, but haven't seen a whole lot of writes until today. Gotta use diskpart.exe every attempt or the drive will show 0GB and throw errors. [link] [comments] |
Ubuntu 18.04 lts: Xorg is broken. As are many other things... Time to nuke and reinstall Posted: 28 Oct 2021 01:07 PM PDT Hey all, My Ubuntu 18.04 system has been poorly for a while... Started after a Kernel update, which inexplicably broke something to do with my graphics card causing lvmetad boot errors... I removed the graphics card and just used the onboard display until I managed to get the graphics card working again. However, this then took out my onboard audio... No more audio, even after trying all the usual PulseAudio tricks... Sometime in the meantime, Xorg has also died on me... After a reboot, if I log in and try and load the desktop environment using Xorg I get a brief flash of the DE, which then pixelates, blackscreens, and dumps me back at the login screen... If I use Wayland, DE starts fine and I can use the PC with no issues. Ongoing issues with using Wayland are: Teamviewer doesn't work. Transcode issues with PlexMediaserver (logs indicate libcuda errors - not sure why it's looking for cuda on an AMD RX480...). Realtek onboard audio still broken. So... With that sorded history of issues, and the patchwork of fixes I've applied, I feel like un-fucking whatever is fucked with my install is beyond both my skill and patience level. Time to nuke the install and start afresh? Sidenote - this allows me to install on a fresh boot partition rather than an encrypted partition too so I can reboot remotely... [link] [comments] |
Unable to boot into Debian 11 [dual boot] Posted: 28 Oct 2021 05:11 AM PDT Edit - All sorted now. Just ran the installer again and wiped everything. Looks like it's all working except for the wireless network card (that was detected and working in the gui installer ??) You can ignore this post. This is my first time with Linux and I'm struggling to get Debian to boot on my computer. When I select the drive that Debian is on at the boot menu I just have a flashing underscore at the top left corner and nothing else. This is how I got to that point: I bought a separate normal HDD however it came as a NAS HDD. I made a post here and was pretty much given the thumbs up to go ahead. So I've created a bootable usb of debian-live-11.1.0-amd64-gnome+nonfree.iso because I'm sure there will be driver issues. I've no idea if this is any help but Windows wouldn't recognize the NAS HDD, however the bootloader did. I followed the installer, created accounts, created a new partition on the NAS HDD, set it to the default ext4 and let it install. When it came to installing GRUB it said Debian was my only OS so I continued to install GRUB onto the NAS HDD and not the Win 10 HDD as my thought would be that's where it would go if I wasn't dual booting. It asked if I wanted to connect to a mirror to download the other requirements but it couldn't find my network so just left it as is. And then it wrapped it up and that's where I'm at. Sorry this post is so long but I thought it might help if you knew the steps I took. I thought I'd create this post before having another go at it later on. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 28 Oct 2021 12:12 PM PDT Title. Besides perhaps having a usb drive with LUKS encryption key you lost.
I ask out of curiosity. Is everything besides what comes with the distro changeable? Any errors or issues that can't be fixed that are software based? Of course a storage media could fail and you lose everything (you should have back ups anyway).
When I looked through my journalctl for only critical aka level 2..3 errors I saw quite a few I'm wondering if I can fix up. My computer seems to run fine besides xorg or systemd once dying (another one of my posts)

Question about software repositories Posted: 28 Oct 2021 11:55 AM PDT Can I access repositories from any Linux distro? Say I'm on Ubuntu, can I use the Fedora repository? (I'm assuming they have their own). Would the different file formats cause issues? Sorry if this is a dumb or obvious question. I'm still finding my feet. [link] [comments] |
Best practice for FSTAB entry for a iSCSI LUN Posted: 28 Oct 2021 10:56 AM PDT Hello All! I'm running RHEL 8.4 and i'm in need of some help understanding the best options for setting a LUN to auto mount on boot. We have a LUN presented by a block storage array (Netapp eSeries) I have the LUN viewable in RHEL, and when I reboot I seem to not have to re-mount the directory but to be 100% sure i'm trying to verify if this setup is correct. i've tested multipath and all seems fine w/ MPIO failover, but i'm having problems when setting a FSTAB entry for it: Entry I am trying to use: I've been reading that I should utilize the following options: I can understand the nofail and the acl, but i'm on a EXT4 drive, so not sure if I need user_xattr, but also i'm not sure why the dump is set to 0 in this example, as I do need it to get backed up by a Veeam client, so not sure if this shoudl be set to something other than 1. Thanks for the help! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 28 Oct 2021 06:25 AM PDT I can't boot using my current kernel (5.13.blah generic) for some reason. I get stuck at "starting version 247.3-3ubuntu3.6pop0~1631829388~21.04~08ab711". I did an apt full-upgrade before power-down, but it was successful... Old kernel (5.11.blah generic) boots just fine. Already reinstalled the kernel and firmware, to no avail... Any advice/thoughts about what might be wrong? [link] [comments] |
Set up a rasberry PI running Debian getting bumped out of gmail Posted: 28 Oct 2021 09:50 AM PDT So I got my Pi running and everything was good until I could not log into gmail without getting bumped out. I'm using Chromium for a browser. Cleared history and cache same problem. Any ideas what the problem is? [link] [comments] |
Do I have enough and the right resources to start learning Linux? Posted: 28 Oct 2021 03:37 AM PDT So when I say I am a noob in Linux, that's an understatement. I want to learn Linux and especially security. Right now I am reading The Linux Bible by Christopher Negus the 2020 edition. I also have a couple of Udemy guides on Linux as: Udemy Applied Linux Commands Line and Shell Scripting Zero to Elite FrontedendMasters Complete intro to Linux and the Command-line Udemy-Linux Administration Bootcamp Go from Beginner to Advanced Udemy- Complete Linux trading Course to get your it dream job. As I said I mainly want to get better in the security district but I also want to have the basics in administration and whatever in Linux. Do you think that I have a strong start (resources wise) to start learning Linux? What other books or courses you recommend me for Linux learning and if you know any of the courses and do not enjoy one feel free to write that down. I am also planning on getting my hands on some cybersecurity courses and books in the future so if you have any suggestions I would love to hear them. Ty for reading sorry for my poor English I am not a native speaker and the best to all of you, we're all gonna make it! [link] [comments] |
Best ways to get Ubuntu to respect the DNS Server and suffix I set in DHCP Posted: 28 Oct 2021 03:13 AM PDT Just a quick query from a Windows guy, I have a Windows DNS/DHCP server (more comfortable managing that in Windows), and it's pushing out a DNS server and local DNS suffix for my local VMs, but Ubuntu (and CentOS), are using NetworkManager and don't seem to respect whatever I have set for my DNS server and seems to "forget" what the local DNS server is after a while. I have tried to setup the resolvconf update package to force the networking to use the old-school settings in /etc/resolv.conf. But at some point, network manager seems to do it's own thing and go back to using the internal resolver (even though I have also manually entered the settings in NetworkManager's GUI as well). Is there a way I can script something to remove this so I can go back to the old method (need a script as I use several LinuxVMs for various tests and learning more to do with Linux without breaking my main workstation.

Get rid of wine entries in the application launcher Posted: 28 Oct 2021 08:51 AM PDT KDE on Arch Linux Hey guys, yesterday I installed wine to run a character creation program for a pen and paper RPG. That didn't work and I uninstalled wine with the "pacman -Rns" command. But still there are wine entries in my application launcher. How can I get rid of them? [link] [comments] |

How can I use powerdevil without bluez ? Posted: 28 Oct 2021 08:29 AM PDT Running KDE plasma with Arch on a laptop. I don't use bluetooth and don't want to have any package related to it. But bluez and bluez-qt are dependencies for KDE's powerdevil. To get rid off those I had to remove powerdevil as well. Now without it I can't change my brightness and the screen turns off after 10 minutes of inactivity. I reinstalled powerdevil and switched off screen timeout from the KDE settings since without the package 'Power management' tab can't be accessed. But after removing it again the problem returned. I can bear with not being able to change my brightness, I keep it at max. But this screen turning off automatically while inactive annoys me. [link] [comments] |
Could you please suggest me the best Linux Distro? Posted: 28 Oct 2021 04:37 AM PDT I'm new to Linux and I am very curious to learn more about Linux while learning DB like SQL along with machine learning for data analyst. I am also interested in cyber security and learn more about hacking. I thought of installing Kali Linux. But I'm so confused right now. I'm a quick learner. Please suggest to me a Linux distro that would suit my criteria. Thanks Edit: Specifications are Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU M330 @2.13 GHz 2.13 GHz Ram: 8 GB [link] [comments] |
Practicing Linux within Android Posted: 28 Oct 2021 07:52 AM PDT I am currently taking my first Linux class. We are just getting in to shell scripting. I will be doing some traveling over the weekend and I had an idea. I have a Nvidia Shield tablet with a small bluetooth mouse and keyboard and I was wondering if there was a way I can use this to do some practice exercises from my book while on the plane. I don't have much time to set something up so I thought someone here may have some experience that would help. Is this doable? For reference I have been previously doing my work in Raspian on a Pi 4. I know Android is built on Linux but I don't know how easy it is to just pop open a terminal and start banging away within Android itself. I imagine some virtualization is in order? Thanks in advance [link] [comments] |
Is there any way to force a process to launch with a certain niceness on boot? Posted: 28 Oct 2021 03:47 AM PDT I've noticed gnome-shell (Gnome 40) is weirdly laggy on my computer (Ryzen 3 2200G/Vega 8/8gb). these specs should be more than enough for simply gnome to run. But setting niceness to -11 using EDIT: Niceness is 0 by default [link] [comments] |
What would it look like passing through a GPU to a Windows VM? Posted: 28 Oct 2021 01:33 AM PDT I don't mean in software, more so physically. I have two monitors, a main one and one in portrait orientation off to the side. I have 2 GPUs. One would be controlling the host, one the guest. How would I route the cables to the monitors? I don't want one monitor for Linux, one for Windows - I'd like it so when I opened my VM, it would come up on my main monitor. [link] [comments] |

Using tiling manager within KDE Posted: 28 Oct 2021 12:45 AM PDT Hey all, I was playing around a bit with KDE today and I actually quite liked it. I'm on arcolinux and the set up was pretty nice I do enjoy some of the aspects of dynamic tiling managers (been using xmonad) and how they've functioned. Is there a way to use xmonad or similar within KDE plasma to get the best of both? [link] [comments] |
