I tried to downgrade nvidia driver to 560.35.03-1 and after finished everything i reboot the system and the resolution is 800x600 so i asked chatgpt and give me some commands to do and reboot the system, i do everything it says i get stuck at a menu that says

/dev/sda2: clean, 295747/1441792 files, 4811098/5767168 blocks

I don't know what to do i tried to reinstall the driver and got the same.

I've installed linux(mint and ubuntu) on my old laptops with dead batteries, which is plugged from power source only, I noticed they both shut down randomly. That didn't happen on their old operating systems which is windows and mac. Does this problem have to do with their dead batteries?

I'm using a thinkpad L470 that has a 240gb ssd, i5-7200U (2-core 4 threads), and 8gbs of ram (plan to upgrade it to 16 dual channel, but I need to budget it first since I'm still a student)

Right now I have windows 11 ltsc installed in it, and it's kinda good, but it isn't snappy. But later on I'd try to do fedora, setup kvm and run windows 11 in it, and run windows-native apps in it.

While running the guest os, I don't plan to do anything on the host.

So would my specs be enough to do these? Would I run into some performance issues?

Hey, I'm writing a little project where I want to print out every process connected to a certain try, is that possible?

I'm looking for something that works well with Wayland in KDE, and has support for adding buttons like CTRL, ALT etc.. maliit is fine but it just doesn't have those buttons, I have been looking for so long, KDE is the perfect DE but it's just the k(eyboard) that's missing.

Hi! I've just received my Google Coral and I'm trying to set it up on my Ubuntu home server running Frigate. However, I'm getting stuck at the second step: the PyCoral lib.

My Ubuntu install has Python 3.10 so I got an error about unmet dependencies. The install guide mentions this, and suggest using pyenv to install 3.9. Which I've done:

$ pyenv versions
system
* 3.9.20 (set by /home/USER/.pyenv/version)

$ python -V
Python 3.9.20

However, I still get the same error when trying to install python3-pycoral, even after a reboot. I'm kind of stuck now since I honestly don't know what to do (and this is also where my Python knowledge/experience starts and ends). I'm hoping anyone here is able to help me out? This is the output I get:

sudo apt install python3-pycoral

Hi,

I know here is no direct answer regarding "correctly" sentence.

I know how to install it with absolutely full control, so I can do anything all the time (I know what I'm doing).

However, I don't know how to install it "safe" way "correctly". For example: laptop which will be used for internet banking and day to day tasks.

Is it correct to create root password when installing system so only commands with sudo / pass will make any changes in to system? Same will happen if installing software or doing anything advanced in GUI, sudo password prompt will be displayed? Is it the very best correct way?

Or do not create root password when installing system? Like in this thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/debian/comments/1doltq6/user_permissions/

To have control as a account user?

Which way best way install system to make system efficient, fully secured from any internet disease, only me as a only one user/owner of laptop, with possibilities of changing anything when needed, assuming extra tasks will be needed (privileges).

Different question now regarding Live image, opposite:

Live image to do some easy tasks on random broken laptops/PCs. Under Mint live image I had always easy tasks because it seems everything worked as a root out of the box, I mean, I could live run image to fix/copy files in laptop/PC without any problems or any additional tasks. However, Debian/Ubuntu live is not that easy, big battle to make files copied between because Dolphin etc is default blocked against any writing DATA in to folders/HDDs etc, no root rights. I'm talking only about live image. Making root rights and reboot not gonna happen because this is live. I've found so far:

sudo chown username /

but it didn't work really, then:

sudo chown username /path_to_HDD

and it worked perfectly fine for exact hard drive. Does anyone knows any simple command to make full root privileges for whole system on live image within seconds, not just for one path?

I am trying to install udisk so that I can have all my drives all mount on boot with endeavourOS gnome. When I run yay -s udisk and select udisk2 Terminal responds "error installing repo packages".

Hi everyone,

I recently ordered a Wacom Intuos CTL-6100 tablet and plan to use it with Ubuntu, which is my primary operating system. I’ve heard that Wacom tablets generally work well on Linux, but I wanted to ask if anyone here has experience using this specific model on Ubuntu or any other Linux distro.

Does it work out of the box, or are there additional drivers or configurations needed? Any tips or advice for setting it up would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance

This would help out many common folks to use linux better (though it could bring in more viruses but to be honest it might be worth it to help grow linux). Its like running an exe but with an extra step that the common folk will never do. If there was a way to allow with administrator upon trying to run the bash script like with an exe file on windows it would help linux numbers better.

AKA Yet another post of mine whining about the vast majority (?) of Wayland compositors having "serious" cursor input lag

Self-explanatory. Pretty much every wayland compositor that exists seems to suffer from one intensely irritating problem: cursor lag, and I'm not quite sure why. I made a post about this a while ago, same thing as this, basically.

They all suck compared to both composited and uncomposited Xorg (xf86-video-intel on my ThinkPad T480 and xf86-video-amdgpu on my A285, NOT modesetting which seems to have cursor latency unto itself, at least in the stable branch from like 3 years ago (they haven't had a new release since), xserver git won't build atm because one guy's messing with it big time), even while they should all (at least KWin and wlroots) support hardware cursors afaik.

Best one (read: least bad, still horrible, can be demonstrated by putting Xorg in another VT and switching between it and the wayland compositor) is, surprisingly, miracle-wm (or I guess Mir-based stuff in general), seems relatively recent but has a Fedora spin for it so that's interesting; though... it's a tiler. I don't really like those, though I could force myself to use one if I had to. And it's missing stuff like the gamma control protocol for night light (has most of everything else, though), so it's not an option for me, at least not yet.

The second best is the Wayland session in Plasma 6.2, seemingly it just got better in terms of how much latency there is when moving the cursor (almost certainly a recent development since the KDE 6.1 that comes with Kubuntu 24.10 is a lot worse, and yes I did install plasma-workspace-wayland so I know I wasn't just testing the X11 session, thankyouverymuch), so at least something is being done, which is reassuring, but also concerning since Wayland has been pitched as a "it's ready today and works for everybody (unless you have an Nvidia GPU; actually afaik this is much less of a problem than it was even a year ago) so just switch to it already" solution for the last ~3-ish years, so having absolutely critical stuff like this only be dealt with now and still not having it be as good as the old solution is... not great. We'll see, though.

Then there's GNOME/mutter which we don't care about because it'd suck even if it did this right, and it has issues like the cursor lagging for a bit when you hover over any shell element anywhere, so we'll ignore it here.

And finally, wlroots (tested Sway throughout most of this, though this is interesting...) It has horrible cursor latency, feels even worse than GNOME Wayland (even if you factor in the aforementioned cursor freeze/lockup thing with the clickable elements). And Hyprland (which has their own thing now) too, that one is awful too.

I know I've posted about this before (multiple times in fact), but I'm actually, genuinely wondering if something is just wrong with hardware's Linux support (both Intel and AMD (and could theoretically test Nvidia too since I have a PC with an old-but-technically-still-supported card of theirs but I just don't care for that machine in general) so that'd be weird), or if I'm just doing something wrong.

Or... it's just that nobody cares. It's entirely possible (though others have complained about it before me (but like 2/5 of the posts (definitely most of the ones from this year) you'll find by looking this up online are from me, on both reddit and the arch forums. lol)), since not everybody gives a fuck about this, but...

Oh, and then there's the fact that I had a laptop (w/ 11th gen Intel CPU+iGPU) where I don't recall noticing it either and daily drove Plasma 5.27 Wayland for months, though it's possible I just didn't notice it yet. Yet another thing to consider.

This is particularly weird because afaik everything I'm testing (except Mir which I'm not sure about but it probably has it too) has support for hardware cursor planes (meaning the compositor shouldn't apply vsync and double/triple buffering to the cursor), so I'm wondering if this is, again, a hardware support issue. As I mentioned, Xorg's modesetting suffers from this too, however this could theoretically explain the fact that I didn't experience this on the aforementioned Intel 11th gen machine since modesetting is the only Xorg driver option there, which might have led me to treat this as just... how cursors behave on Linux in general. Or maybe the display on the thing (some TN thing iirc, knew that when I bought it and knew it when I got rid of it) sucked enough to hide this. Every machine I've mentioned up to this point has (had) a 60Hz panel, though, so...

Sorry for wasting y'all's time with this again, but...

Hi, I'm considering getting a CTL-672 or CTL-472 for my younger sister who sketches very well (on paper) and wants to eventually go pro in some form of product design. She's currently a freshman in med school and is interested in designing consumer facing medicial tech. The thing is she's been using linux since childhood and cannot switch to windows or mac. The tablets that I looked at only mention windows and mac compatibility in their product pages. I have two questions : 1. am I looking at the right products if I want to get her started in this field? If not what would you recommend I get her? 2. Is Krita on Linux a good platform for her to start in? Being linux compatible is very important to her as she has tried to switch but unsuccessfully so (partially my fault since I put her onto it very young, owing to my computer science background)

thank you so much for your input

Note: This question is absolutely massive. I will go into detail about running qemu, the hardware of the device it was made for, the "distro", compiling u-boot, and more. I apologize if this breaks the rules.

Commands entered into the Linux Shell is marked with $, those entered into the u-boot shell with =>.

First, the infodump.

I am trying to run a firmware of a device that was built on linux. The kernel itself is a U-Boot conform kernel, compiled for the armv7a arch, version 4.9.

There is NO EFI partition, just the ext4 partition.

Inside the boot directory, there are several files and folders:

boot.scr.uimg (its a boot script for u-boot)
uImage (the ARMv7a Linux 4.9 Kernel)
stm32mp-txt2.dtb / stm32mp-txt2-rev1.dtb
mmc0_stm32mp-txt2-rev0_extlinux / mmc0_stm32mp-txt2_extlinux
mmc1_stm32mp-txt2-rev0_extlinux / mmc1_stm32mp-txt2_extlinux

So my first step was to compile u-boot like this (assuming the git repo is under u-boot-master):

$ export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf-
$ cd u-boot-master
$ make qemu_arm_defconfig
$ make

This gives me a u-boot.bin file, which is essentially the bios used inside qemu. Going back up one directory, I have my filesystem, which is essentially a .ext4 file, the contents a normal linux partition, with boot, bin, usr, etc.

$ qemu-system-arm -M virt,virtualization=on,secure=off -cpu cortex-a7 u-boot-master/u-boot.bin -drive file=image.ext4,format=raw,media=disk -m 512M

This brings me to the u-boot shell, which also functions pretty much properly. It does not autoboot, instead bringing me the following messages:

Scanning global bootmeth 'efi_mgr':
Cannot persist EFI variables without system partition
Missing TPMv2 device for EFI_TCG_PROTOCOL
Missing RNG device for EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL
  0  efi_mgr      ready   (none)       0  <NULL>                    
** Booting bootflow '<NULL>' with efi_mgr
Loading Boot0000 'virtio 0' failed
EFI boot manager: Cannot load any image
Boot failed (err=-14)
Scanning bootdev 'fw-cfg@9020000.bootdev':
fatal: no kernel available
No USB controllers found
scanning bus for devices...
Scanning bootdev 'virtio-blk#33.bootdev':

Before that, u-boot scans all bootflows, and after that, attempts DHCP boot, which also fails.

So, I attempt to boot it manually, by inputting the following commands:

=> ext4load virtio 0 $kernel_addr_r boot/uImage
6857280 bytes read in 24 ms (272.5 MiB/s)
=> ext4load virtio 0 $fdt_addr boot/stm32mp-txt2.dtb
72825 bytes read in 2 ms (34.7 MiB/s)
=> bootm $kernel_addr_r - $fdt_addr

After entering bootm, it gets stuck on the output above, never doing anything. I have waited several minutes, nothing happens.

NOTE: I also tried it with the rev0 variant, no change in the outcome.

Am I perhaps doing something wrong? How can I actually make it boot inside a VM? Can I perhaps transplant the files onto another system? I am happy for any helpful answers you provide me!

If you need the download links for any of the files, I am fine to provide them, but I am not sure if thats fine.

I mainly stick with CLI tools like file manager, vim, etc. There's usually a function to update the filesystem, e.g. if files were added/or deleted elsewhere, then you would reload in the application to get the updated list.

Why is this necessary and is it relatively resource-intensive to use features like "live update" to automatically do that? I would like think the latter would be a more reasonable default but it's still an opt-in feature in most applications.

I'm also using a terminal (Alacritty) which supports live reload of the config. I assume this uses inotify to detect changes for the file? It's enabled by default--I also assume this is negligible in terms of implementation? I actually prefer if it was disabled in this instance because it's not usually the behavior or applications to live update their configs--it would be more useful if live updates applied to changes to filesystem, as in the first example.

Another example is my status bar. It seems anything that reports total space used involves actually running the du binary periodically (i.e. polling). Or maybe that's just a naive way of doing this (I use status bars that are script-friendly). But I have also never heard of a way where the space remaining on the filesystem can be calculated without polling. Is polling with du the most efficient way?

I guess when it comes to resource and efficiency it's all negligible and it would be more reasonable to consider e.g. impact of battery life of a laptop. I remember when I set polling to 1 second for my few modules and my battery life dropped from ~7h to just ~3h, so it's not like it's a trivial concern. One might ask "why would you need it to update 1 second?", but using other operating systems they at least appear to be reporting stuff in real time (I'm sure events/polling are still involved but from looking at some status bar modules it looks like nearly everything is polled instead of relying on more efficient(?) and accurate events).

Hi, i set backend api server on my old laptop (debian) and everything works fine. What is best way to save power (its connected via power supply - only 45 watts) while nginx is running on this laptop? I don't want it to shut off and i don't need UI and screen running the whole time (it should activate only when i move my mouse). Is there some screensaver mode that i can set or anything else?

First post on reddit; so bear with me.

Brand new Sound Blaster Audigy RX 7.1 with respective RCA break out cables installed on Debian 12 and kernel 6.1.0-28-amd64 .

Problem

speaker-test -Dplug:surround71:Audigy2 -c8 -t wav

produces sound on all 5.1 channels BUT 7.1 channels "Side Left" and "Side Right" stay silent.

Measures taken so far:

• Volume controls turned to 100% on all channels with alsamixer
• Used different cables (which are working on other jacks of same soundcard perfectly)
• Tried speaker-test -Dplughw:Audigy2 -c8 -t wav (different device name!)
  • => also no audio on side channels (but all other channels)
• Deleted /etc/asound.conf
• Pastebin with output of alsa-info.sh available here: https://pastebin.com/pa1N2kYK

Anyone an idea why 5.1 works but not 7.1? Appreciating any help!

I have an Ubuntu (22.04.4 LTS with GNOME 42.9) system on my Oracle Cloud to which I am connecting through NoMachine on two different devices (Win11 and iPad).

As an example, when I enter the following three characters: Shift + 1, Shift + 2, Shift + 3

On the Ubuntu system, in like a web browser, I get:

• when connected through windows: !@£

• when connected through iPad: 1"3

I checked the "xev -event keyboard" results on terminal and this is what I found (left is windows, right is ipad): https://imgur.com/a/weGZfAG

In the above testing, my keyboard layout setting on Ubuntu was unchanged the entire time. So, my observations are:

• When connected through iPad, what is getting typed into the web browser differs from what the XLookUpString from the xev terminal result is showing (except Shift+2)

• For some reason, the mapping for Shift+2 seems to be different when connecting via Windows or iPad despite the keyboard layout setting in Ubuntu not changing

• The timestamp for the KeyPress and KeyRelease events via iPad is the exact same for Press Shift, Press 1, Release 1, Release Shift, but via Windows it is not the same, each event happens a little after the other

What is going on here, and how can I fix this? This is just one example of the issue. As of right now, via iPad I haven't found a way to enter the symbols (like !,@,£,% etc) and also Shift + Alphabet is not capitalizing the alphabet (although again in the XLookUpString result from the xev terminal command, it shows the capital letter). Any help would be appreciated!

Edit: typo

Hello fellow channel dwellers!

I am determined to stick a pinguin sticker to my laptop (yes i am becoming one of those people). I was thinking to myself, where do i buy a sticker or sticker pack that actually would support people or organisations that making linux better instead of ordering one on amazon or ebay?

Os: Arch linux

Kernal: 6.12.1

De: Kde plasma 6.2.4

Cpu: I5-4590

Gpu: Gtx 1050-ti

Driver: Nvidia proprietary 565.57.01-2

Gamescope: 3.15.14-1

I found a tool that make any game run splitscreen that doesn't support natively, The tool requires to make the game run in gamescope,

gamescope -W 1920 -H 540 -- %command%

I tried with lethal company and after i run this argument the game seems to work fine but after a few seconds the game freezes and there's nothing to do except to close the game, Notice that the game without gamescope runs perfectly fine without any issue, I tried to downgrade gamescope version to 3.14.29, 3.14.18 and nothing work.

more specifically how to implement splits (i dont care about session management)

i do know how terminal ansi escape seqances work, and i know that should spawn/manage separate shell processes.

but even knowing that it's unclear to me how do i display that shell processes in separate splits?

any demos and explanations regarding this would be appreciated, thanks.

the best resource i've found so far is this: https://github.com/xmine64/ters but it only implements back scrolling and not window splits

So I know it's a longshot but further to my previous post about people losing use of their WiFi devices after updating to Ubuntu 24.04, I have found Linux generally can connect in the morning but not during the rest of the day, a few times like just now at 14.48 it works but upon a reboot it magically won't connect again, however Windows 10 can connect at anytime. I also find Windows 10 can see another network but Linux cannot see that one. Strange. I am theorising that someone else in the local neighbourhood is turning their WiFi on at some point late-morning onwards and this is somehow clashing the signals but for some reason this only affects Linux. I know it sounds strange but it's the only thing I can imagine happening.

Hi all,

I just got a pair of Bluetooth headphones and am having trouble getting them to stay connected to my laptop. They connect briefly, then a few seconds later they disconnect, before reconnecting again and so on. I am running Fedora 40 KDE (6.11.8-200) on a Lenovo Thinkpad with an AMD processor (Ryzen 7 Pro 5850U).

I did a web search, but didn't see an obvious solution on the posts with the most similar problems. I am hoping someone here can help me troubleshoot further.

Here is what I think is the relevant output from journalctl --follow once I connect the headphones :

Please let me know if any other information would be helpful.

Thank you in advance for any help!

Want to upgrade linux mint to latest version. I haven't started yet but I know you make a system snapshot. Does anyone what size would that be, and would all my files and documents be preserved in it, in case something goes wrong? 500gb SSD is almost full so i don't understand if the snapshot will also have to be 500gb

My PC has an NVMe drive and an SSD. It came with windows installed on the NVMe and I dual booted linux onto the SSD.

I no longer have any need whatsoever for my windows installation and I would like both drives to be available for linux. I would also like to move my linux installation/bootloader etc across to the NVMe.

I'd rather not do a fresh install. I do have lots of data on the SSD but most of it is games. The only data I am precious about are my configs/scripts etc.

Any ideas on the best way to approach this? If it's a fresh install then so be it.

Which one is better i use Fedora right now.

a week ago i messed up with the packages of my OS someway my os couldn't run.. I was partially able to fix it by using a liveusb and, in it with chroot fix the packages. Now i can run the graphical desktop but... it does not detect the sound device, i have no internet, some usb devices dont work (but they'e detected) and it spend lot of time loading the desktop. ah! and i get a "overlayfs: missing 'lowerdir' " message over and over again in the terminal. Any ideas how to fix it? i have Ubuntu Mate 22.04 LTS
