Hey /g/, I just did a fresh minimal netinstall of Debian without a DE, and something is fucked up. I don't have any basic commands like sudo, ifconfig, etc. and I can't connect to wifi. I've used Debian just fine on my laptop before, but I wanted to do a minimal install and just use i3. Does anyone know how to fix this so I can actually use my laptop?

>>55844005
Debian does not come with ifconfig or sudo lol, why would you think that? Use ip and su.

>>55844024
How do I connect to wifi then?

Is USB 3.1 (Gen 2 w/ Thunderbolt) the same thing as Thunderbolt III?

>>55844182
not really a linux question is it

>>55844134
If you don't have wpa supplicant (run wpa_passphrase to check) you'll need to install it through a deb or source package by copying it from another PC, or you could apt-get install wpasupplicant from an ethernet connection.

You can see your adapter name and addresses with ip link and ip addr respectively

Then you'd run

 wpa_passphrase "yourssid" > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf 

Then run wpa_supplicant, see the example, basically copy that swapping in your config file and whichever of the two driver options work, then when it makes a connection, hit ctrl-z, then type bg to fork it to the background and run "dhclient -i(myinterface)" to obtain an IP address and other info automatically assuming you're using standard DHCP.

>>55844197
Forgot to mention, type your network password after you run wpa_passphrase, it will give you blank nothingness and you enter it, it'll save it to your config file and generate a key from it.

Just installed Lubuntu a few days ago to get better performance on Minecraft out of my old laptop.

What is a good browser that is very responsive and has ad blocking?

Firefox is complete fat shit. Chromium is alright, but whenever I come out of Minecraft, it's so fucking slow and not responsive for like 5 minutes.

I tried QuipZilla and it was supa dupa fast, but it doesn't play videos on my fav porn sites or WorldStar. I click play and it just opens up a download prompt.

>>55844314

It's too slow. Like I lick a link in my IRC client and Firefox wouldn't open. I'd click the link like 10 times and then 2 minutes later Firefox opens with all 10 links. I click the link once with Chromium as default browser, and it opens immediately. But Chromium gets all sluggish like Firefox when I'm in a game. I tried QupZilla and it worked perfectly while in game, but I can't play any porn videos on it.

>>55844346
>I'd click the link like 10 times and then 2 minutes later Firefox opens with all 10 links.
Sounds like your hard drive is choking on read speeds to be honest. This should never happen regardless of the program.

>>55844197
Thanks for the reply.

I tried doing the wpa_supplicant command, but I get "sure permission denied" even though I added my user to the group root and edited /etc/pam.d/sure to include the wheel group. How do I fix this? Sorry for the dumb questions, I want to get pro with Debian

>>55844400
> even though I added my user to the group root and edited /etc/pam.d/sure to include the wheel group

The latter is done for for sudo, which is pointless in your case. Reverse your changes, giving your user root privileges is a massive security risk.

Type "su" and enter the root password. It will open a shell instance as root user. Then press control-D or type exit to drop back to the previous instance once you're finished with what you need to do. Personally I don't use sudo at all, but I only run linux as a headless server.

I've been running Debian for a few months and I'm thinking about installing Gentoo. I don't really know much, but I'm eager to learn. Does anyone have any recommended guides/advice?
Or should I not even bother installing Gentoo? My GNU/Linux-fu is pretty weak.

>>55844552
do you just want to fit in with the cool kids?

probably been using linux for so long, since i just want something that werkz on muh machine

>>55844552
Compiling from source (usually) takes longer and is more error prone.
I'd say no if your fu is weak.

>>55844552
Probably not. I personally use gentoo because I'm an aspiring sysadmin and to be knowledgeable in server security, hardening and attack vectors. It's a good distro because you know everything that is going on, and it does its best to give you absolute control.

>>55844615
>Knows everything that's going on
>Used a graphical installer

>>55844634
>>Used a graphical installer

I installed gentoo through a live environment to setup a basic Linux system and to obtain all of the gentoo files through an internet connection and chroot to setup the environment for booting.

>much configurability. very hacker. wow

>>55844735
Absolutely takes longer. More error prone if your fu is weak, less if you know what you're doing. I did mess up my architecture flags and deps a couple of times myself. He's right. And I was telling you you shouldn't install gentoo, not you should.

>>55844755

I used Iceweasel for a long time, but it's no longer being supported so I'm trying out Iridium. It seems ok as long as you disable the google part. I don't know how it behaves with video playback across sites, because I haven't actually tried it yet. Shit is taking forever to install.

>>55844832
Why iceweasel?
Easy Burpsuite config?

>>55844860
because I didn't want to use firefox and it seemed like the best fork at the time. At least for casual browing. It was also more compatible with add-ons than the other forks.

Switched from Windows to Xubuntu yesterday, so far everything seems fine, only thing that bothers me is my download speed, used to be 1,5 MB/s on Windows, now on Linux it's 400-500 KB/s. Any idea what the problem might be?

Greetings, I couldn't find a stupid questions thread, so pardon me if my ignorance wastes your time. I am attempting to install Debian, however it is not liking my graphics card. I will skip past the tale of the past few hours of headaches it has given me as I attempted one approach of installing the drivers, however I have recently found the .run file Nvidia has on their website.

I have been following this piece of documentation: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/367.35/README/installdriver.html and it seems to be that I need to disable the X server before executing the .run file. On stackexchange, they say I can do this by exiting graphic mode with alt+ctrl+F1, however this just turns the screen black and doesn't provide me with a terminal (as they say it should... unless I am misunderstanding). How should I go about installing these drivers? My monitor won't even recognize my resolution settings at the OS's current configuration, forcing me to do all of this from an old projector.

Also, any information regarding blacklisting the "nouveau" kernel after the driver installation would be nice (as I think I messed this up, along with the xorg.conf earlier, causing me to not be able to boot into the OS and prompting me to start the installation over).

Thank you very much.

dear /fglt/,
i'm having some serious trouble installing Mint (to dual-boot with windows 8.1).

After fixing my initial problem of not being able to boot by editing the GRUB options for the USB i originally booted from, i managed to install Mint to a separate, empty partition on a hard drive where some stuff (but not W8) is stored on.
Now when i try to boot from the Hard Drive, almost immediately Windows repair starts. Someone suggested to me that i change boot setting from UEFI to Legacy priority/only Legacy, but that did not change anything.

In any of these steps i could've made a mistake since i am not experienced and sometimes pretty dumb.

What would you suggest for me to do next? Where could i have made a mistake?

>>55844005
Next time don't use a root password in the installer so you have sudo preconfigured. You could have installed nm in the expert installer too. Or used ethernet.

>>55846055
>windows repair starts
>new user
I would recommend you to fix your mbr through windows live but since you are new just backup from a live mint usb and redo the windows and mint install, that takes more time but is easier and will let you fix prior mistakes.

Which ones now /g/?

From a TXT file I saved off some instructions I found online detailing the entire procedure of installing the proprietary nvidia drivers on a debian system:

>1. Download correct drivers for your GFX-card and place the in your own directory (/home/[USERNAME]) for easier access later.

>2. Open the black list module as admin with a terminal:

>gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

>3. Add these lines to your blacklist.conf

blacklist vga16fb
blacklist nouveau
blacklist rivafb
blacklist nvidiafb
blacklist rivatv

>4. Uninstall all previous nVidia drivers and stuff

>sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-*

>5. Now reboot or press CTRL+ALT+F1 (Console mode will appear, login with username and password)

>6. If you pressed the key-combo, you need to stop the desktop manager

>sudo service gdm stop (If GDM is your desktop manager)

>7. If you placed the drivers in your own directory (/home/[USERNAME]), you are ready to go.

>sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-**.**.**.run <- Type just a capital N and press Tab, The console should autocomplete the name for you :D

>8. Follow all instructions and when asked if the install should do an auto-config of the X-settings, select 'Yes'.

>9. Install complete, reboot.

>10. 'You're ready to rock n' roll!'

>Hopefully, this could help you.

I'm not incapable of setting things up myself, I just don't see the point of not using the more time-efficient distro. Thing is, the more time efficient distro is bloated. I remember doing a Lubuntu install once to discover that the software center doesn't even work or have essentials like Libreoffice - still have to do terminal install. Which is fine of course, I don't mind that.

What I am confused about is installing graphics drivers, software compatible with my particular hardware and all that shit, I've always had trouble with that on Linux

You won't find a distro that exactly has what you want/need and only that and nothing more in its standard installation. You either have to go with less and install what's missing or more and live with it or purge it.

the other thing you need is a DVD authoring tool, i personally like mediachance dvdlab

>since the DVD player have USB port what kind of format should I use to have it compatible with?
if it's got DivX support (should see pic related on the front if it does)
then it'll play avi files with mpeg4p2 (divx/xvid, NOT h264) video with mp3 audio, resolution is probably limited to what dvd supports, but that's just a guess, i've never used such a hardware DivX player

>>55849171
>Like what?
ffmpeg has DVD presets, you can also research what DVD supports and stick to that
for example;

ffmpeg -i input.mkv -target pal-dvd output.mpg

will produce a pal dvd complaint mpeg file, you can override anything by adding options after it

i've used dvdlab in wine before, if you don't care about making menus, you could try "dvdauthor"

as for divx options, look up which divx profile your player supports, then look up how that profile is defined, or look for a guide

Hello all. I have to dual boot W10 and some Linux distro [preferably Xubuntu, since I was using that and was comfortable with it]. I need Windows for some work related stuff that I found no adequate replacement in Linux environment[s].

Last night i fell asleep with it on, and woke up and it had turned off due to inactivity of course. But when I go to turn it back on today, it can't seem to find a signal from the desktop, even if I explicitly configure it in nvidia-settings.

Is this most likely to be a softrware issue or a hardware issue?

>>55850827
You decide!

Well if you somehow managed to black out, you probably loosened out a cable.

>>55850853
>if you managed to blackout, you probably loosened a cable
I don't even know how that logic works, like, I was laying down in my bed, TOTALLY FUCKIN AWAKE LIKE 30 RED BULLS AWAKE and then in the process of falling asleep naturally I thrashed so violently as to dislodge an HDMI cable 15 feet away?

Anyhow, it still works in windows so obviously a software issue.

Very new if youre wondering

where do you guys learn stuff about the structure of GNU/Linux? I get that functionalities of single packages and sometimes suites can be looked up on the Arch/Gentoo wiki, but how do you learn about general stuff like how components like Window Manager, Display Manager and so on interact with each other and what their roles are without knowing that window managers are a thing yet?
Do you just pick that up in conversations after a while or are there good resources?

Hey /g/, I used Arch Linux for a good few months before having to ditch it and re-install Windows thanks to a college class that had some dumb proprietary Windows-only embedded systems compiler. Class is over and I'm getting tired of windows again, what distro should I install? Arch again or is there a non-meme distro that's better?

Installed Fedora a few weeks ago (Mainly because we're gonna be using it at uni this year) and it's pretty good so far. I find it interesting that booting into Windows 7 makes my Thinkpad rev up its fans like the thing is ready to take off with minimal effort yet when I'm booted into Fedora it does no such thing until I actually start loading up programs etc.

Insignificant differences. Not only that, but it's a 6 year old article and who knows how they measured it (they don't show all the process running or other things which might interfere with the results).

MATE isn't a distribution. It's a desktop environment. A distribution can look any way you want it. Only an idiot chooses a distribution based on its looks. Fast is a subjective buzzword.

It's not any distribution can be fast even the bloated to all hell ones. Some are fast inherently because they aren't as bloated. Or they re and just don't run every service ever right away on boot.

filing a complaint won't give me a functioning uefi.

They're all decent in their own way.

What's a good distro for somebody just getting into Linux? I put Mint on a USB (just because Mint looked nice) and I'm running it right now but I still have no idea what I'm doing. I'm assuming with any distro, I'll still have no idea what I'm doing.

>>55854681
Years and years of use and growing up with it (windows). I'm wondering if there's a quicker alternative to learning Linux, such as some online guide that teaches the basics, etc.

>>55854712
You learn by experience. There are guides but you probably will forget most of it fast if you have no need for it.

I noticed that programs can take "full control" of a sound device and keep other programs from outputting audio on that channel.

Examples: If I play flash on chromium (runs more smoothly), flash on firefox will not be able to play sound; if I'm in Discord, I get no audio in most Steam games, but they work fine if I quit Discord.

I'm also confused about Pulse and ALSA. I read that Pulse is just an additional layer on top of ALSA. In my utter newness I installed most of those things, including the lib32-alsa-plugins package and more, because the wiki states it's necessary for Steam.
I'd appreciate any help on discerning actually needed shit from stuff that's just shitting up the system.

if you have a little experience with C, then getting some old UNIX programmer's manual can do wonders for getting to know the file system/inner workings of your operating system
also start writing some shells scripts eg. for automatically checking wether your current anime has a new episode today and if it does make it download it right away.

Programming with the stuff is a really good way into Unix, at least if you are familiar with the concept of programming already.

holy shit why can't I get my Japanese porn games running on Wine
I've already created a 32-bit wineprefix and run apps in Wine through a Japanese locale

The 32-bit wineprefix breaks things that worked under a 64-bit wineprefix. Stuff crashes fairly indiscriminately, usually related to gstreamer missing plugin errors which I probably can't fix due to not knowing enough about multilib installations.

I tried setting up a Windows 7 VM in Virtualbox earlier but that was even worse. Godawful performance and things that needed DirectX wouldn't start.

Anyone have experience with this? Eroge/visual novels usually run fairly well under Wine unless they have an installer, which will typically crash without errors or logging info. Anything action-oriented and the majority of RPGMaker titles are unplayable.

One of my favourites was text distortion on the install media. Like what the fuck, how does one corrupt a fucking font pack?

How frustrating I feel like I can't rely on a Linux system.

Did you check the md5sum of the disk image?

>>55857358
Everyday I am more certain than Canonical is doing more harm than good to the community by screwing simple shit up and driving people away.

Just try Debian senpai.

>>55857388
It came out fine, I have no idea why the boot media of all things screwed up. The install didn't screw up in the same way, just the media.

>>55857395

It turns eye raping blues/whites in to light yellows.
Same way you use a red light at night, instead of a normal blaringly bright clear led

I'm installing Gentoo.

This is taking a long cocksucking motherfucking time.

What are you up to?

Teamspeak conflicts with mpd. When I open the client, I can't listen to the mpd audio. Using PulseAudio. What could it be? mpd keeps working, but there is no audio output.

>tfw finally got around to installing gentoo but can't get it to detect my trackpad at all

What am I doing wrong bros?

>>55857744
Have you configured the kernel yet?

>>55857847
n-no uguu~~

How do you decide which distribution to use as a first timer? I don't have any programming knowledge but have no OS currently (not genuine windows), so I want to switch to linux. I'd like something that looks sleek but doesn't require much knowledge that can't be googled.

>>55857877
Install Gentoo

How do I remap Ctrl+leftarrow to home in ubuntu+xfce?

>>55857772
Uninstall gentoo

>>55857930

hello. this is how i connect to wifi with a net install.

use "su" to go supersaiyan

su
vi /etc/network/interfaces
you don't have to use vi you can use nano or whatever

add into the interfaces file

iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid (PUT YOUR NETWORK NAME HERE AND ENCLOSE IT IN PARANTHESESEss IF THERES ANY WHITESPACE)
wpa-psk (PUT YOUR NETWORK PASSWORD HERE)

does that make scents. it is the easiest way.

when you have put that junk in your trunk, run

ifup wlan0

to connect to the internet.

>>55857906
I-I thought that was a meme here

>>55858091
It's a meme but it's true. Gentoo is a wonderful distribution.

If you just want something out of the box then install Ubunto MATE.

should I just go for it and install it as my main OS and just virtualize windows for games or should I dual boot it?

How to autostart Compton with i3?

>>55858198
To autostart shit with i3, put exec <whatever> on the end of your ~/.config/i3/config

exec compton

>>55858182
Dual boot
To get good performance with games on a vm you need to do pci passthrough and that is hard for a newbie

How do I tune font rendering on a standalone window manager?

>>55858198
Read the fucking documentation ffs

>>55858182
If you're a first timer like you said, the former sounds like a very bad idea.

>>55858269
Thanks, I figured it was that command, but didn't know whether to put it in ~/.xinitrc or ~/i3/config.

>>55858303
I did, but it was unclear as to the exact command or where to put it. Also spent some time trying diff things myself to no avail. So I asked here, isn't that what this place is for?

>>55858290
ok thanks. I can leave my windows as is? Or do I have to fresh install both? I'll look up a guide I guess.

>>55858343
noted. Thanks

What is the correct mv command for the following files in an unsorted directory.

mv [Underwater-FFF]* 'new directory' isn't moving the files.

There are other mkvs so *.mkv won't work.

>>55858387
is it mv \[Underwater-FFF\]* 'new directory'

You can leave your windows as is
Most distros have a nice installer that do most of the job for you including configuring the bootloader and shit, so no worries

>>55858387
Escape those [ like this

>>55858423
>\[Underwater-FFF\]*
Yeah that worked.

So all square brackets need a \ before them?

>>55858354
>isn't that what this place is for?
Indeed this palce is for that.
>was unclear as to the exact command or where to put it
This is just bullshit. Is it so hard to find the exec section on the index?

Requesting that picture of Stallman going "NON-FREEEEEEEEEEE" and any other /fglt/ memes you want to post.

>>55858456
only 92% of them :^)

>>55858456
Yes, they're like spaces
You can either escape them with \ or use quotes around the filename

Can someone please explain this to me? Just moved to linux and I'm still trying to understand some commands and how they work.

So I wanted to delete all files with a certain name in my home directory (and all subfolders).

My initial thought was that I would use

 grep -r "filename" | rm -rf 

But that didn't work.
Then I looked it up and the correct way to do it is

 find . -name "filename" -exec rm -f {} \; 

I understand everything up to the -exec. Would really appreciate someone explaining what these modifers mean and what they do.

>>55858509
Read the manpage for find and look for -exec there

>>55858464
>Is it so hard to find the exec section on the index?
Finding it isn't the problem. I wasn't sure of what I was reading and wanted to ask /g/ for clarity.

>>55858632
Thanks, forgot that man pages existed.

Do I need to dick around with USE flags while installing Gentoo?

I am in the process of installing Ubuntu

I booted from a USB and selected the option of Trying Ubuntu before Installing

From there I chose the option to install Ubuntu. The installer opened but I got to a screen that asked about installing third party software and when I hit continue the mouse pointer turned to a loading icon and nothing has happened since then (more than 25 minutes ago).

The computer isn't frozen or anything, I can still use other programs just fine, but the Installer has not progressed at all.

Can you think of a reason this would be happening or does installation just take a very long time?

What's up with this lads?

>>55858865

What's the point of manually confuring my kernel during Gentoo installation? The handbook really doesn't have me doing any optimizations.

Is there a way to switch a window to a second screen on Ubuntu, using a shortcut?
I used Actul multiple monitors on Windows but it seems there's no equivalent?

someone make new thread
