I 'm using GREP, and I need to make my REGEX select a block of text. The file is composed of many instances of:

...}, {code: 123abc, lorem: ipsum, boolean: true, dolor: sit}, {code: ...

So... The delimiter could be <}, {>, but CUT doesn't allows more than 1 character as delimiter.
What to do? Using { or } or , isn't an option!

Has anyone noticed how youtube videos are currently loading slow in firefox?

It seems to be adblock plus acting up, since if i try to copy the URL while it's loading i get the URL for the ad.

Thanks, these are always confusing for some reason.

Reposting here as well as the /sqt/.

I've a problem with sound only coming through my right earphone. I'm pretty sure it's a software problem because I noticed exactly when it happened browsing youtube videos. I'm on a laptop running Ubuntu and the headphones were connected by a USB audio adapter because the regular audio input was fucked. I'm pretty sure the problem now is software because I heard this change happen and nothing was bending or moving. Tried unplugging then plugging in again. Tried shutting down and starting up again. Now my pleb brain is out of ideas. Help me /g/. Where do I start?

If you didn't changed anything software side, it's most likely your earphone's fault.

yes, though some menus might be a problem, for these you can usually use vlc.

So it can't use subtitles as well right?
Also the file is in ISO format, is there a way to re-encode the episodes to mkv or something similar?

>>55833629
That might be it tb'h. The jack wasn't bending or anything but the headphones (not earbuds btw, to avoid confusion, I know sometimes people call earbuds earphones) were making a bit of a noise in one side (I can't remember which, but the right has now lost sound) when nothing was playing last night. Like a scratching. Bit of paranoia made me think a bug got in there by the sound but that's not likely. Maybe the headphones have just blown out on one side. There wasn't a bang or anything when it did cut out though. I could always test with another set when I get hold of one.

>>55833687
mpv supports subtitles.
you can do that with ffmpeg if you feel the need to.

This is very weird. I've never had any problems with mpv even when I was using NNEDI, but for some reason, a certain scene in pic related is extremely slow. I'm taking a peak in the manual, but there isn't anything in there that suggests any improvement.

Here's part of the mpv.conf just in case. I've tried it without any subtitle setting as well and there still is a problem.

So my thinkpad has an ExpressCard SD card reader (pic related). It worked for a while, but a couple weeks ago it just stopped mounting SD cards. The reader shows up when I do lspci, but none of my SD cards show up in disks and they don't automount.

I actually have a second ExpressCard card reader (identical to the original) and it does the exact same thing.

What changed? Why can't it see the cards? I am running Fedora 23.

You basically need to download that source you were linking at, compile and stick it at your kernel.

I'll keep that in mind. I just remember even getting games to run in basic wine+winetricks was a pain in the ass, and the few that could usually had worse performance.

>>55835402
Tried both fglrx and radeonsi, and both are okayish? They do different things better than each other. Some things radeonsi is better and others fglrx is better (in general, not just with emulation). Apparently the new AMDGPU driver is much better, but it doesn't work well with older cards currently.

Currently running a fresh Arch install with fglrx and my main frontend, RetroArch, is definitely better with proprietary, but certain settings can still cause slowdown (a lot of shaders, for example). Haven't tried the others yet.

Speaking of which, I have asked already, but how's AMDGPU on emulators? I'm tempted to just ditching Nvidia altogether due to headaches with their proprietary drivers and kernel upgrades. The performance isn't that great on games with AMDGPU, but I can live with that.

>>55835529
I'm just curious, speculating that it might be more of a pain to use NVIDIA drivers on Arch or Gentoo since they're bleeding edge and he mentioned headaches with them and kernel upgrades

In Debian Testing/Sid I haven't gotten issues with that, it's all very smooth. They're not so far on the bleeding edge so you don't get headaches like that

I'm just speculating though, I really dont know if that's what he means

>>55835645
>>55835602
99% of the time, any bizarre issues you come across have a very well documented reason for happening, and you can fix them easily. They're not just magic

A lot of the time you can diagnose, check symptoms, and in most cases you read the logs and it'll flat out tell you what's wrong.

Most of the time, using Linux is pretty EZ-PZ. Depending on if you have some bizarro hardware there can be a bit of a growing pain, but once you have everything set up it's easy as fuck

Submit a bug report

I've never used Linux before but want to try it out because it looks a lot cleaner and nicer overall. If I like it, I will eventually dual boot win8.1 or 10 for games and Linux for everything else. Is Mint any good? It looks aesthetically pleasing. I basically know nothing about Linux.

>>55835674
In danger of asking the obvious: you installed them this way, right?

https://linuxconfig.org/nvidia-geforce-driver-installation-on-debian-jessie-linux-8-64bit

You didn't just install the driver from the manufacturer right?

>>55835699
Mint is okay to get your feet wet, but it usually advised to use it aside from that. It compromises security for stability because they have their own spaghetti code derived from Ubuntu, which is in turn derived from Debian

I'd say a good beginner distro would be any of the Ubuntus, or if you're feeling like going straight to the grandpa and learn a bit more, Debian.

>>55835726
>>55835699
*usually advised against using it aside from that
Sorry, typo

Also, you can make any distro look just like any other, so the aesthetics shouldn't really be a heavy part of your decision. Think of the distro as the engine of your car and your DE (Desktop Environment) as the paint.

>>55835699
if this anon is any indication, you might be able to run a lot of your games on Linux too, my man >>55832374

>>55835496
Yeah, I have. But I'm also going off of a year or two ago since at the time, I pretty much decided against trying again. The last one I tried was Fallout 2 with the HiRes patch a few months back, and for some reason that ran at like half-speed even with or without compositing.

Again, though, things are improving. Speed and performance, in both the proprietary and open source drivers, are much better than when I built this PC a few years back. And from what I've read, the new AMDGPU driver is much better than both of them, so maybe it's just a matter of me needing a new GPU at this point to see the improvements.

>>55835726
I had a bad experience installing the driver that way very early, just about when I switched to GNU/Linux about 6 or so months ago. There was a problem similar to what I had right now back then. I grab them from Nvidia now since 352.79 is pretty old. I don't like it either anon.

>>55835726
>>55835747
So if I wanted to learn Linux and generally have a good time, I should try Debian? I'm just running things in VirtualBox for now.

>>55835821
Debian isn't friendly at all to new users. Go *buntu or Mint and then move to anything else if you really want to.Try Debian, but have a wiki at hand if you must.

>>55835821
If you are not afraid to get your hands a bit dirty, Debian is a good choice. A trusty wiki and browser page open on your phone or another computer while you install things should see you through it

If it sounds a bit intimidating, you should just use some Ubuntu flavor, like Ubuntu GNOME, or Lubuntu.

how to make these non-KDE icons smaller and monochrome?

I'm trying to set up mpd to autostart in plasma 5 but it's starting as user 'mpd'. In the autostart settings I have it set to ownership 'myname' and user - run as a different user - 'myname'.
It's not starting as me though.

>>55835817
Here's what I recommend

>Switch to Integrated Graphics temporarily
>Purge propietary nvidia drivers you have installed
>Install them the Debian way like in that link

At least that way you won't have to fumble around with fucking kernel upgrades and all that sort of spaghetti stuff

>>55835901

systemctl disable mpd
systemctl --user enable mpd

>>55835661
Do you get to see your login screen?

>>55835817
>>55835908
And THEN if you still get problems after doing it like that now, file a bug report. I once dealt with one of the NVIDIA package curators when I found a bug about 6 months ago too, he solved it quick for me. Nice dude.

>>55835929

>>55836088
Stable is for servers, Testing is for desktops, Sid is for people who want to submit bug reports and help with development.

Rolling release distros are much better suited if you want bleeding edge packages.

>>55836106
You can. Use your favorite search engine and type in 'change luks password' to see how.

>>55836122
Testing and Sid are technically rolling release. Doesn't mean they're on the very tippy top of bleeding edge though, but they're still rolling. You never have to install new versions and that's what rolling means

Sid is a good choice for bleeding edge (but not hemorrhaging) while still having stability

Not true at all. It depends on the maintainer.

Try an older version of Ubuntu, like 14.* if you can't resolve it. I remember trying to use Debian's testing installer and having some fuckups. At the time, Ubuntu 15.* was the newest version and I ran into the same problems. Stable install was crisp, you can then upgrade from there. I'm sorry you had to go through this anon, this is a reason why many are turned off by ganoo slash leenoox.

How can I run Mint from a USB? Currently using Windows 8.1. I found these two links:

Will either one work? What's the difference?

>>55836416
pastebin.com/5SpDqg3k

>>55836486
You're gonna need a LiveISO.
I don't know if Mint offers one. If it does, just burn that to any USB using Rufus.

If it doesn't, try an Ubuntu LiveISO

>>55836486
are you trying to make a mint installer? or install mint to the usb drive?

>>55836524
I want to be able to boot into Mint from my USB drive. I want to use it just to test out Mint.

>>55836486
You shouldn't run Mint in the first place. It's insecure (blocks updates) to be stable.

>>55836595
Then what should I use? I don't know anything about Linux, really, and I'm just trying to get into it. Mint just looked nice.

>>55836486
grab the iso that fits your system from https://www.linuxmint.com/download.php

get rufus (a usb disk imager) or https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ this and write the iso to your flash drive (this will delete everything on it so put the data you want to keep elswhere for now)

when thats done reboot your computer and hold f12 and f2 to get into your uefi settings. go to the boot tab, make sure all usb ports are above your hdd and you windows boot manager, then turn off secure boot.

turn off computer, insert usb, boot up. and if you did it correctly start installing linux.

>>55836611
The best babby linux is alway Ubuntu. Canonical has a shitty philosphy, but it's the easiest around. Go with Ubuntu. If you want Mint's Cinnamon desktop install Cinnamon on Ubuntu. (All distros are basically the same, only package management differs).

i'm new. which ubuntu should i try first?

>>55836618
For me, I just press F12 when it boots up and I can select to boot into the USB from there, but what is "secure boot" and why would I turn it off?

>>55836647
How is Mint any less easy than Ubuntu?

>>55836647
>Canonical has a shitty philosphy
here we go again

>>55836573
just for testing, making an installer is enough
just write the mint iso to the usb drive with win32diskimager

>>55836672
It isn't less easy, the problem with Mint is that it blocks updates for several programs, inclusive ther kernel. So, when there's a new security hole in any of the blocked programs, you're pretty much fucked. Here's a list of the blocked programs: https://community.linuxmint.com/software/view/mintupdate

>>55836690
Fuck off Satya.

>>55836669
it prevents malicous programs from making changes to your OS on boot. you may not need to turn it off but it can prevent you from installing linux. try without first. if your gonna try a different distro just go get the .iso from its respective website. you dont ha e to do mint.

>>55836732
>it prevents malicous programs from making changes to your OS on boot

Try without changing the Secure Boot setting, or try without it on (it being off)?

>>55836767
>Secure boot is cancer
How?

>>55836787
Secure boot is yet another of MS to play monopoly, disguised as "security feature" only Windows users need, since Linux got enough protection out of the box.

>>55836815
You clearly have no idea what Secure Boot does.

Yes, MS's attempt to lock out anything but Windows from using SB is cancerous, but SB itself is a good security feature that applies to Linux just as much as to Windows.

If your company gives the password to anyone who asks (and doesn't void warranty but only charges a fee for fixing user related software problems) maybe. But you are selling it, the user owns the thing, he should be able to do whatever the fuck he wants with it as long as it doesn't harm others.

you want to provide a manufacturers root password on your hardware so that "normies" wouldn't fuck up their system.

>What is Stallmanism?

Stallmanism is an organized religion, a set of stories, symbols, beliefs and practices that give meaning to the practitioner's experiences of life through reference to an ultimate power or reality.

>What do Stallmanists believe in?

Generally, Stallmanists believe that the GPL - version 3 or (at your option) any later version - is a sacred text and that Richard Stallman is the Prophet who brought this text to us.

>So Stallmanists believe in God?

Yes, but not as a type of imaginary cosmic telepathic friend. Stallmanism teaches us that God is Us, God is the Community. In this respect, Stallmanism has roots in the Humanist philosophies.

>How does one become a Stallmanist?

To discover one's Stallmanism requires an individual journey of meditation, observation, participation, and understanding. The destination of this journey is Enlightenment, the point at which an individual realizes his or her Stallmanism, joins the Community, and becomes one with God.

I'm just up an ubuntu server for torrenting on my netbook with WLAN as the sole option to connect to the internet. So far, the

iwconfig

and

ifconfig

commands yield pic related.

I've googled ofc and seems like there is no way to get the driver (if any) other than using apt-get which requires a connection.

The wireless chip in my netbook is the Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 rev01 which worked flawlessly to download things during the install process. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I wish'd people who hate RMS, FSF, GPLv3, etc, would take the time and actually watch some of RMS' speeches to fully understand him.

Sure, if everything you know about Stallman and the Free Software movent is that he likes eating shit from his foot and /g/ interjections, there's no wonder for meme posts like yours.

>>55837741
Is it possible to be productive on just a window manager?

>>55837803
No it is not. That's why so many people use them...

Oh dear.
Get an ethernet cord.

>>55837830
Not just for shitposting on /g/ and watching Chinese cartoons.

Actual work.

more productive, less lag, no need to point your mouse around.
awesomewm is all keyboard unless you really want to use your mouse

>>55837850
The real question is can one be productive on a point & click DE?

>>55837720
Not good enough for our standards

What an idiot.

do people actual hate the dude? i mean besides proprietary shills.

>>55837832
It's not going to be used for intensive applications as I said only for torrenting which I imagine shouldn't be too intense, plus there is no ethernet port so I'm screwed on that front. Its a Dell Inspiron 1090 and I thought I might be able to do something with it.

This is probably a stupid question, but are there lists of software that are known to be more/less stable in certain distros?

What should or shouldn't I install in Arch? I don't unstable shit.

>>55837486
Then you may have to add kernel boot parameters as said in the comments of this bug report : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1308264

Don't use the AUR
Use the LTS kernel

>>55836292
Thanks dude

>>55837913
you don't need a driver, the interface is right there up and running, just connect it to something

>>55837989
granted

---> >>55838033

>>55837931
>>55838016
Dont do anything listed here.
Use the aur, it has alot of packages, people shitposting about it use obsure software or cant make a PKGBUID themselves
Use anything else if you want lts, as lts will conflict as things update, futher putting your system in the past
There is NO open drivers that arent balls.ATI has always been shit , and even the blob ones are shit. Noveau wont be fully functional on aything released this decade.Nvidia has no problems at all. Even if you have shitty old hardware, there is a freeze package for you, without gimping the rest of your system with an LTS kernel.
Everything in the offical repo, is released from upstream, if upstream fucks up, of course downstream will have issues.Despite this, packages are held in testing repo prior to be pushed main.
