I personally see this as a simple version of desktop Linux. If you like what you see donate.

I’m very new to Linux. Currently tinkering with Nobara and wanted to install st. I was able to successfully install it last night but when I started attempting to patch it for customization purposes I think I messed something up. I had needed to remove st multiple times and re-install so I could start fresh and fix my errors....

I am planning to reinstall the OS on my ThinkPad T400, and I’d like to try using the Trinity desktop environment. Can you suggest some distributions that work well with TDE?

TL;DR I am using Windows and I want help setting up all the conveniences I enjoyed back into Linux… specifically an alternative to OneDrive....

I noticed yesterday that my 5950X never goes into C6 state, as Powertop only shows C0 C1 and C2. I know there have been issues with Zen and Zen+ regarding C6 states but it shouldn’t be a problem from Zen2 forwards? I tried running zenstates --c6-enable but that didn’t seem to work and I couldn’t find any settings in the...

I have already tried to reinstall, didn’t work. I have the RX 6600. I’m on Fedora. Already ran sudo dnf update and restarted multiple times. Could my GPU be dying? The GPU is a Powercolor branded one and basically the cheapest RX 6600 that my local shop had available so its a bit sketchy. But it has worked pretty well so...

Personally I’m a fan of KDE Plasma.

I’m going to very carefully poke the hornet’s nest here and ask this basic question that I never really explicitly formulated. It seems apt here on Lemmy in particular because people take as a given the superiority of Linux as the starting point of conversations involved computers generally....

IBM/RedHat obviously missing from the member list....

I am thinking of moving to linux (Debian seemed to suite me) from Windows. I have used lubuntu and and ubuntu somewhat before, but their use has been very limited....

The installation was really smooth, very impressed. Hope this becomes my daily driver now.

debconf: unable to initialize frontend: Dialog...

Any recommendations for easy-to-use Linux distribution for audio production? I might try PipeWire installation too if it’s stable and compatible enough....

I was thinking about getting a framework laptop myself actually. Seems to be working very well under arch.

After a single APT command gone wrong made my Debian installation unusable, I decided to reinstall Linux. I tried to back up everything to my external hard drive, but it kept unmounting, so I elected to use Filen (a FOSS cloud storage provider) instead....

TIL the French government may have broken encryption on a LUKS-encrypted laptop with a "greater than 20 character" password in April 2023....

How do people here feel about mosh to the wide internet? We provide SSH, and use both normal secure passwords and duo for all logins. We've had a few more inquiries about using mosh recently, and looking at it, the big concerns I'd have are potentially the firewall rules (is it outgoing or incoming high port?) and the long...

Was thinking about trading in my gaming laptop and opting for a tablet to be more mobile. Any Linux tablets out there? Or would it be better just to by like a Surface and install Linux that way? TIA
