You people using tiling WM's, how do you manage several browser tabs? Do you use your mouse to click and create new tabs? Do you Super + N to different "browser workspace instances or do you keep all the tabs in a single instance?

>>108399914
Browser tabs are part of the browser app, the window manager you're using should not make a difference,

When all else fails read the friendly manual :)

If I need two windows open I either open a new firefox instance or just pull the tab out.

How the fuck is this a WM issue? Am I retarded?

>>108399914
I keep windows floating by default and only enable tiling when I need to. I'm using Bspwm but this is pretty normal functionality across the board.
Tiling is useful for some workflows but not for everything.

I have Snapper set up to take btrfs snapshots from the past 12h + 3days. Whenever I want to undo all the shit I just did to my root drive I usually just restore a snapshot from 1 or 2 hours ago instead of manually reversing each change because it's easy and fast. However every time I do that it seems to create a new subvolume with the name root_backup_[timestamp]. Is it safe to delete these?

Im trying to use this "secondary router" with DHCP and firewall turned off, delegated to the primary router, so the secondary router acts as a switch

This works great over ethernet, but the wifi is so trash for some reason, it hangs for seconds at a time and takes 20 seconds to load up a website that takes a fraction of a second by ethernet cable, even if im sitting in the same room with perfect wifi reception

so i looked up the telnet credentials and got into a busybox thingy
what do i poke to check what could be causing issues here?

i was having the same issue when i had OpenWrt installed on this thing, i thought it was the retarded propietary broadcom chip not working well with openwrt but it seems to still be misbehaving even with the official firmware

TLDR: Vodafone's "sercomm AD1018" router wifi is shit, hangs up the internet for several seconds at a time even with full reception. Router works great over an ethernet cable though.

To answer my own question: Yes, it is safe to delete them after restoring a snapshot. Looks like when your restore a snapper snapshot it first gets copied into a new subvolume and then restored from it, leaving behind said subvolume after rebooting. Recovered a nice chunk of disk space by deleting them.

>>108400626
Just don't use snaps (don't use Ubuntu).

>>108400599
there's a good chance this is too specific a question in the sense that it'll probably take someone with similar hardware and a similar usage to get a useful answer.
however, i would first look up what wifi chipset your box has, and then look up anyone talking about it's performance in linux, openwrt or otherwise. i don't use wifi much myself, but i have heard about spotty devices

OpenWrt only gives partial support to this router because broadcom chipsets are propietary. i assumed this was the reason wifi was working like dogshit on openwrt, but there seems to be a different reason
https://openwrt.org/toh/sercomm/ad1018
>CPU: Broadcom BCM6328 @ 320 MHz
>WLAN chip: Broadcom BCM43217

im on almost stock firmware (MOD VFES_3.0.11 Custom build from Sercomm GPL sourcecode, nand utils included)
the stock firmware runs busybox linux stuff guess

>>108400215
I also use a tilling window manager without the tiling part 99% of the time. I just use i3 in tabbed layout and it works for my usecase. The only advantage i3 tabbed layout has over the monocole layout from other tiling wms is that i have a visual indicator of all the tabs while most of the other ones dont have anything like that.

>>108400599
Are both routers acting as a wifi accesspoint with the same ssid?

>>108400868
Yes, one router is at the house entrance in the ground floor and the secondary router is in the opposite side in the top floor

>>108400888
You might want to try disabling the AP on one of them to see if the issue still persists since that might be the issue.

not him but i don't really understand how. i've heard a couple times people saying some wifi radios that do worse specifically as an ap, but that doesn't make sense to me. maybe i just don't understand wifi enough, but isn't an access point basically just software? like what is demanded from the hardware that actually changes between being an ap and being a client?

Why can I not run Counter-Strike in native full-screen like I can on Windows? I'm on CachyOS.
I've tried looking this up, most places tell me it's a Window Manager issue. Most places seem to say that switching to X11 will enable native fullscreen, but it doesn't. I have installed an set X11 as my desktop session, same issue, I can't run it native full screen. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or if the things I'm reading are wrong.
Other places have told me that nvidia-settings has a setting to override windows manager for applications. It's been a minute since I read that, but I just looked again I don't see any setting like that. Maybe I'm retarded and don't see it?
Is there any negative to playing video games in Windowed Fullscreen? Is input lag or frame times effected? I really dont' know I'm retarded.

You tell me.

>>108403390
It has reasonable defaults. noatime is all most people should need to specify. Compression level should be based on CPU benchmarks.

>>108403042
If the only feature of systemd you use is systemctl then other init systems are not very different, systemd is simply very very bloated and has many features that the average joe will never ever use.
I do recommend switching to artix if you have been on arch, most people can't tell the difference unless you use systemd features heavily.
>uutils
Very few people will tell you this but the real reason uutils exists is to make an MIT-licensed version of coreutils, Canonical really wants to change the license for coreutils but the GPL prevents it so they write their own coreutils.

>>108403182
Second oldest living distro, and most successful one too, that's why 90% of all other distros are based on debian.

>>108403042
Init system doesn't actually make that much difference so much as just pick one and stick to it. The more contact your package base has with foreign systems, the more problems you're likely to have.

today randomly when rebooting from Windows the computer went into memory training and my linux cryptenroll/sbctl shit wasn't working, but cmos wasn't reset and secure boot was still normal.

It still booted but the tpm register obviously changed because it didn't decrypt automatically.

It's quite common to store stuff in weird folders like C:\Games and iirc windows lets you do it without complaining. It's nice because it keeps files away from the grubby paws of onedrive and other "helpful" services.

On cachyos they give the option to choose between systemd-boot, refind, grub and limine.
i have absolutely no idea on what any of these are, and reading the differences on the wiki didn't help either, they do explain the differences but it might as well be giberish to me.

Grub is the standard that's used by 95% of people.
Limine is supposed to be a modern replacement for Grub but I'd still consider it experimental.
Systemd-boot is supposedly the fastest one between the 4.
I've never even heard of refind.

so, final question (hopefully)
on the cachyos website they said to disable secure boot so i'm gonna do that, but i also remember enabling tpm 2.0 when installing windows 11 if i'm not mistaken.
should i enable either of those after i'm done with the installation or are they useless?

Common Debian victim hallucination. When is btrfs slated to be the default in RHEL? How about that ostree RHEL desktop? The RedHat sphere is so large and dynamic they can have a near totally different concept OS for developers and still make a better enterprise product than Debian. People are literally volunteering to smuggle source code out of RedHat accounts so they can build EL knockoffs rather than deal with Debian's out of touch bullshit.
>Arch-based distros (which break regularly

AUR provides recipes not software. You're supposed to inspect these yourself.

Not even. Debian got so far behind that Canonical had to decouple from unstable. The deb ecosystem is lead by a failed adware / rent seeking operation.

I know on windows that a lot of people disable ipv6 for security or whatever, is that a good thing to do on linux? I noticed there's an option in gnome settings to disable it it seems.

the firmware runs on the hardware, so now we're getting into hair-splitting territory where it depends on how you describe the hardware. i my case i'm talking about the hardware as a single black box, what goes on inside is just "the hardware", which includes the firmware. but if you want to expand on it, treating the hardware like another computer with it's own hardware and software, then sure, the driver talks to the firmware

>>108401204
WiFi adapters are abstract black box devices because regulations. Like other Anon said you only deal with the firmware, and the firmware can impose whatever restrictions the mfg sees fit. No AP mode on this chip because you didn't pay another dollar for the next model up.

I haven’t dropped the laptop since yesterday, so I assume it must be a software problem, but the old kernel won’t boot either now.

It’s a Lenovo Thinkpad T430, and it was running Fedora 43 until yesterday. Has anyone else had any problems with the new kernel?

i guess i'm just naïve old-fashioned regarding what wifi adapters actually do. i've used wifi basically since the beginning, first seeing them in college when they brought in a handful of apple airtalks, which i think were the first at least popular wifi access points you could buy, i used wifi with my psp and had an 802.11b usb adapter to use that with, i've cracked a couple wep networks as one of my first practical uses for linux over 20 years ago. but, wifi was and never has been my primary means of connecting to a network, for me it's purely a convenience option sans a better option.
so, while i'm aware with my experience cracking networks in linux ages ago, that only some cards at least had drivers capable of monitor mode to dump packets, i assumed that was just a driver limitation, after all wifi on linux wasn't known to be very well supported back then, but outside of that, isn't it just a case of putting packets out of a radio and receiving them on a radio? i suppose thinking about it there must be more to it than that if some drivers can connect to a network and not use monitor mode, since being a client still requires two-way communication.

sounds like it's more complicated than it really should be, i wonder why that is

I have seen that thread about systemd and the ID verification shit and now I don't want to use systemd.

I have never been against systemd as I barely know what it is and it seems to have no affect on me but now I dislike it and so I am going to move from Arch to Artix or perhaps Void.

My question is probably a dumb one since I am a noob but will using a different init system make any difference to me?

Will it effect muh gayming in anyway?
Will I need to know new commands?
Artix gives choices between a few init systems and I did a search and for gaming and normal users OpenRC and runit seem to be the go to, does anyone have a recommendation?

That is all, thanks.

am on puppy but it's similar to antix they're plug and play for the most part depends on the libraries

>isn't it just a case of putting packets out of a radio and receiving them on a radio?
No because regulators don't want idiots to have access to general purpose programmable radios for $5. That's always locked behind a high price and licensing requirements.

>>108407315
No; that's the thing - I can't. For some reason the old kernel won't boot either. The laptop also has Windows 10 on it, and I haven't tried that yet, but Fedora appears to be kill (again). They really hate my old laptop. I tried to sign up to the Fedora Project last time this happened, just so I could help prevent it from happening again, but they have bizarre rules about having to report in to some mentor, so I never did it.

Or perhaps all my hardware has broken simultaneously the day after I installed the new kernel. That's certainly what the error messages are telling me, but I don't believe them.

it also makes no sense, gnu utils are important but this is just stallman's ego, considering how large of a portion of your system your DE or systemd services make, should everything be called GNOME+systemd+rpm+dnf+firefox+gnu+fedora+linux. But there's no reason to call distros Linux either, the way I see it Ubuntu is just Ubuntu not Ubuntu Linux, the only one where GNU/Linux makes sense is in distros like Debian where they actually themselves often times call it officially as Debian GNU/Linux, but Fedora is just Fedora or Fedora Linux, and every Distro has it's own explanation for proper naming and pronounciation. Funniest thing to see retards stress that akschually linux kernel is linux and gnu/linux is desktop when that's not even the case.

Your web service on the unprotected web that nobody knows about is going to get practically zero hits because of how big the IPv6 address space is. Meanwhile, some Indian can scan the entire IPv4 address space in his lunch break.

Definitely, boomer nonsense that disabling it somehow improves security. This idea probably comes from Windows fags where historically the IPv6 stack on Windows has been crap and full of serious security bugs. This is not the case on Linux.

>>108408148

>hair-splitting territory
No, it's essential to make this distinction. Firmware has bugs and limitations. If something is not implemented in firmware then it'll never work irrespective of what the driver or hardware can do.
The firmware is specific to each chipset, hence the differences that you noticed.

When you uninstall a program using GUI in gnome software, is it literally just running sudo dnf remove firefox? In terms of cache, leftover files, configs, etc. where does linux store this stuff after you uninstall through gui or use dnf remove? I'm on Fedora/Gnome. I uninstalled some gnome apps I didn't need through the gnome software app so I'm wondering if there's any leftovers I should take care of manually or if there's a better way of doing it. I heard of sudo dnf autoremove as well, which seems to get rid of packages that are unecessary leftovers, but I also heard some people say that it can sometimes remove important shit that accidentally wasn't marked as necessary and then break things. Is it worth running? What does linux maintenance even look like compared to windows, in windows I know it's good practice to run disk cleanup, disk optimization and dism/sfc commands once a month, is there something like that in linux?

>>108408443
>flatpak
everything gets removed
>the rest
home folder files stick around, eg ~/.local/share

>>108408443
Apps leave their config files and data in your home folder. Just like on Windows, it's not really enforced where this data will be so it can be all over the place. Unless you're using Flatpak in which case it's always in it's own directory in ~/.var/app/.
>What does linux maintenance even look like
I don't think anyone bothers maintaining anything the way you're describing. Ext4 is non-fragmenting so the issues Windows has with NTFS don't happen. Btrfs (which I think Fedora uses by default) has it's own CLI tools for checking data integrity and defragmenting it is not recommended at all.

>>108408582
>flatpak
>everything gets removed
Uninstalling a Flatpak still leaves all the data in your ~/.var/app/.

>>108408582
I noticed that if I uninstall a flatpak that if I reinstall it, it keeps the old settings, despite me saying remove all files on the uninstall prompt which is interesting. Similarly with gnome extensions if I uninstall one, and reinstall it it keeps all the old settings.
>>108408615
Yeah I'm on btrfs, that's good to know then. I was worried I should be doing some sort of defragmentation but I did notice there was no gui tool for it so that explains it. What about the dnf autoremove, is it worth/safe to use or realistically would it be better off to not risk it and just let it be.

>>108399858
Gaming friendly distro without systemd?
I just found out about systemd's compliance for tyrannical precedent.

>>108408875
Just give in, it's pointless resisting. Most gaming distros are based on either fedora (Nobara, Bazzite) or arch (Cachy), they're kind of the big three and all are systemdmaxxing

Speaking of systemd, do any systemd alternatives have an equivalent to systemctl soft-reboot or systemd user timers? crontab is not user level timer and potentially requires hacks to work with notify-send

>>108408902
>systemctl soft-reboot
Yes, it's called run-levels. Bring your system down to a lower run-level and then back to the default runlevel again. Congrats! You just did a soft-reboot!

I never really see any need for that though. I use kexec to do a fast-reboot into a new kernel image otherwise the live system stays running as it is.

>>108408716
>What about the dnf autoremove
>safe
Yes. dnf is pretty much the best and safest package manager (compared to apt and pacman). It keeps the changes it makes in a transaction history so you can review and undo changes at any time even if you fuck something up.
>worth
I guess if you want to lower your disk size by a few MBs? I'm not sure how much garbage dnf leaves behind since the only experience I have with Fedora is their Atomic distros which don't use dnf.

>>108408875
systemd isn't an operating system. I haven't seen the related news regarding it, but I assume they'll just expose an API for distros to have access to a common way of providing an age signal. Which is fine? Just avoid distros which do this or, you know, you can just lie and say you're 99 years old. Nobody really cares.

>>108408615
>Ext4 is non-fragmenting
ext4 has fragments like every other modern filesystem. It even has its own defrag program, e4defrag.

Linux used to have dramatically better block allocation than Windows before Vista. You could write the same files to an empty disk with ntfs-3g in Linux and it would look clean on a fragmentation map, switch back to Windows and the literally the same operation would look like shit. These days they're pretty similar but Windows still has scheduled defrag because so many people grew up conditioned to constantly defrag Windows. You shouldn't need to defrag either OS unless you let disks run >90% full for a long time.

>>108408931
>kexec
This seems even better than systemctl soft-reboot. All the discussion I've seen says you need either a full reboot or some weird live patching for the kernel.

>>108408934
The real problem starts when they continuously extend the functionality of this "feature" and allows for on the fly verification.

Sorry, I just can't really respect this and allow/enable this.

>>108408917
I found it surprisingly intuitive, other than some command names. Ironically trying to understand the desktop environments way to do things took more time than just grabbing a window manager and installing what I wanted.

>>108408971
It is. kexec is fucking great. The slow part of rebooting was always the BIOS/firmware starting up and doing eighteen million checks. Now if you could skip all of that and load the kernel image into memory and execute it then that saves you tons of time. You still have some small downtime in the order of minutes and then you're back up again.

It's nonsense from imbeciles who think that NAT is a security feature and that a public IP means the scary haxxor can connect to your computer. In reality your firewall between your LAN and the internet should be rejecting all incoming connections.

>>108409121
Yes, but the scary hacker isn't going to find your IP in the first place with IPv6. They WILL find you with IPv4 though if you're running some service with port forwarded and no firewall, etc.

I don't think these retards can fathom just how big a 128 bit address is. Scanning the entire IPv6 Internet just isn't possible.

>>108401214
nope. It literally hangs for 10 seconds at a time
ended up just opening up the router to see what was going on (it has an internnal antenna)

APparently the antenna has 2 little legs that go into two little holes in the PCB and it had lifted from that spot somehow
i soldered it back into place. I guess it uses the PCB itself to amplify the signal or someshit? because now it works pretty decently

Hello friends. I would like to know what the most straight, white male distro is. And do the BSDs offer such options, too? Thank you.

>>108409146
My point was more that even if they do know your IP, say from visiting websites, p2p shit, or whatever, it doesn't matter that your computer has a publicly routable IP. Unless you configured your network's firewall in a retarded way, incoming connections will be blocked there.

>>108409156
artix linux and then i guess ghostBSD for easy freeBSD install

>>108409174
Yes, in both cases the firewall should keep them out. It's only if you are actually hosting a service that it should be an issue and if you are then the whole neighbourhood is going to be knocking on your server with IPv4.
With IPv6 if nobody except you knows the IP address (and even if they know your outgoing IP that doesn't mean they will find your services IP address because this could be a completely different address within your /56 prefix, possibly on a completely different subnet) then good luck.

>>108409156

Looking online, I need to do 3-5 passes, so I’ll let this third one finish before I stop it. Otherwise, I guess I’m playing around with terminal commands, but half the command I’m used to don’t exist in the emergency mode. It doesn’t even have man pages, and there’s no DNF so I have no idea how I’ll update it to work again once a good kernel comes out.

You've probably already made the decision but limine is nice because it integrates with snapper and lets you boot into snapshots, its the default on cachyos for a reason. It seems nice. Other than that who cares, it's a bootloader, it boots.

I've fixed the problem! It wasn't bad RAM, but the file system had fucked up somehow. The solution was to do ``fsck /dev/mapper/fedora-root``. After saying Yes a bunch of times because I hadn't done -y in that command, everything started up as normal and I'm back online. Hurray!

Was this a problem with my laptop, or with the kernel update? I don't actually know.

>>108410348
I guess it could be either your disk failing or btrfs if you're using it. Kernel updates sometimes fiddle with that fs and edge cases happen for a minority.

Virtualbox is probably the easiest, even though it's not as performant as a type 1 hypervisor. No need to download from the AUR, you can just use pacman.

Neither should be a deciding factor for most people. SELinux is objectively correct if you're giant security tweaker autist.

Why didn't any of you tell me about this before? It's actually pretty decent.

I know that currently it seems like the implementation systemd has for age verification requires nothing of you apparently but how likely is it to stay that way? Should I be considering jumping ship to artix just on principle if nothing else in case it becomes more in the future?

How does the government force distros to implement age verification? Can't they just add a flavor with no verification? Who's going to stop them?

>>108411766
If they are willing to shove this into a component used by the vast majority of Linux users and basically of the popular distros do you think that they respect choice at all? They don't have to implement this through systemd but the fact that people want to is telling enough even if this ends up being a nothingburger. Systemd means compliance forced onto the fucking globe in response to burgerclap laws that aren't even universal in clapistan yet.

on wifi i can connect to the internet, but now on ethernet it doesn't work
like the pc detects the ethernet cable but can't use google
saw online the command ping 1.1.1.1 but then it returns
>network is unreachable

how do you manage ssh keys? when i was using ubuntu it automatically added the keys in ~/.ssh without having to use a passphrase and i never needed to unlock them with the passphrase.
now that i reinstalled my OS i need to ssh-add the keys every single time i reboot my OS and it's fucking annoying. how do i fix it?

Could be a couple of reasons/solutions.

If you've set up your PC to automatically log you in without asking for a password then gnome-keyring/kdewallet won't automatically unlock on boot. Which means ssh keys, wifi passwords, etc. won't be available to you assuming they're handled by gnome-keyring/kdewallet. I think recent versions of GNOME no longer use gnome-keyring for ssh keys, but I could be wrong. I haven't used passwords for ssh keys in a long time so I never needed to unlock anything.

Check if ssh-agent is running on startup. If it isn't you need to set that up. You can enable ssh-agent persistence with systemd. Try starting the service manually through systemctl, then log out and log back in and see if it's still running. Worst case scenario you'll have to write your own config file to execute something like "ExecStart=/usr/bin/ssh-agent -D -a %t/ssh-agent.socket" on startup.

Most likely thing is that you forgot to add your keys somewhere, for example in the ssh config file. Try adding this to ~/.ssh/config:

Host *
    AddKeysToAgent yes
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/your_key

This is just a quick and dirty solution to see if it works. If you only use the key for specific domains then remove the last line from the above snippet and set up the config file correctly.

wish me luck boys

ps i wish uprecords would show uptime in a particular period (like last 365 days, time ranges, etc)

You're not supposed to live upgrade raw servers. Good luck anyway.

>>108413322
Aren't you supposed to updoot regularly for kernel security patches?

>>108413336
if something breaks I will do a clean install of debian

but if it works and I don't have to set a bunch of stuff up again, that's fine too

yeah. i just kept putting it off in case something

also lol at pic rel

>>108413181
i use my password to login and ssh-agent is started automatically (i didn't configure it). it is started with

/usr/bin/ssh-agent x-session-manager 

.

I already have that in my config btw, i still need to use my passphrase the first time and then until the next reboot i can use the ssh keys without passphrase.
basically i want to unlock the ssh keys forever just like ubuntu used to do.

Nothing is gonna break. They’ve had updates for the longest time. This isn’t Red Hat shit.

wtf is this:
error: cachyos: signature from "CachyOS <admin@cachyos.org>" is invalid
error: failed to synchronize all databases (unexpected error)

lmao

>>108413476
i cant update my system because of that

>>108413476
Probably messed up mirror?

>>108413484
didn't touch it
boot up, pc and wanted to update then this shit appeared

>>108413490
I'm not saying you touched it, I'm saying the mirror might be messed up. I did not assume you're a host for a mirror.

>>108413507
so the hosts need to fix them, so all left is to wait

>>108413526
Or you could switch to a mirror that's not fucked.

>>108413526
Reset keyrings.
Reflector new mirrors.

macos, the BSD's and linux are all POSIX standard, yes? So anything compiled on say linux should work on the others with little issue. So why do people on macos not just compile linux stuff to make up for the lackluster software library of silicon era macos?

How's XLibre development going? I'm skeptical of the hate it gets but I don't want to switch until it works.

>>108414804
GhostBSD is making it default on their OS while Artix hosts packages. Otherwise it's not getting much traction, mainly because all the big distros have left X11 in the dust and don't want to deal with a fork of it because they wanna focus on Wayland.

>>108414828
There's an official overlay for Gentoo as well. I personally just want to stick with the WM I already use which is only X11 for now.

>>108414804
tested it on my rtx 5070 PC after installing drivers and it was working fine though steam was being weird about hardware acceleration turned on being a black window but having it off worked

>project handled by a single person who was difficult to work with

>>108415091
The code is all available, feel free to fork it yourself. If you're easier to work with and actively working on the project, your fork will get more attention.

Sounds exactly like what I want from software.

Linux is handled by many people though

No on is working on Xorg, the Xlibre guy was basically the only one. The Xorg folx reverted two years of work just to remove the Xlibre guy's work. So not only is Xorg not progressing, it's regressing.

Just use Wayland.
