/fglt/ - Friendly GNU/Linux Thread

I'm trying to figure out how to use umatrix
so far so good but I can't save files from sites, even whitelisted ones
what should I do?

>>56179662
Click the icon, make every item red. Then make the items green again till the site works.

/fglt/ approved Linux distributions

Void Linux

Exherbo

Funtoo

Devuan

Debian and Gentoo are ok if you want to use systemd.

Manjaro and Ubuntu are the best beginner distributions.

>>56179567
With KDE I used to have a shortcut binding Ctrl+F11 to removing the border, but at some point I inadvertently removed that keyboard shortcut. Problem is, I have entirely forgotten how I managed to do it in the first place.
Can anyone help?

Have you considered the possibility that your computer is haunted?
And just to confirm, you can save the files just fine without uMatrix enabled?

>>56179310
Do you think I'd be able to go down to 512 MB RAM with Lubuntu? The program I'm running only needs about 130 MB so 1 GB is kinda overkill.

>>56180064

Yeah, I can save without umatrix.

I'm thinking of switching from mint to arch. I have a dual boot at the moment. I was wondering if I installed arch over mint if I'd have to reinstall my bootloader or if I could keep it.

>>56180360
If you are not dualbooting then yes, you have to install bootloader. I think you should install Antergos first

anyone have any experience with using sfill to securely delete data?

What CPU governor do you fags use?

That's your first noob mistake then, not using Ubuntu as the babbies first. When Antergos has raped you and stolen your wallet, you'll come back to thank me ;)

How do I add special character support to the terminal? My locale is created correctly but when I try to add special characters, such as "─╼" to the ncmpcpp config, they do not appear at all. Nano completely ignores the characters and turns them into question marks. Can anyone help?

So I just installed a 3rd party theme manually. Basically what I did is:

cd /usr/share/themes/ && sudo git clone https://github.com/manjaro/artwork-vertex-maia.git && sudo chown 777 -R vertex-*

what is the go to way of install vanilla arch now?

can follow the guide, not the first time installing it, but would rather just try out one of those helpers to get it up and running faster.

>>56180924
What the fuck dude use rufus/SUSE image writer or, preferably, dd

>>56180954
Architect or your favourite installer

>>56180864

No, your locales aren't set correctly.

>en_CA.UTF-8
>locale -a shows only en_US.UTF-8, POSIX and C

You need to uncomment en_CA in your locale creation file and run locale-gen.
Which distribution are you using? Let me guess, you're using Arch. You started "ricing" your l33t hacker music player without even finishing the essential parts or understanding them.

>>56180954
All the time you waste on finding an alternative way you could have put into installing it already.

What CPU governor do you guys use?

>>56180954

Kill yourself, poser.
If you actually needed Arch and had used it before, you'd know that installing it takes 5 minutes (not counting download times).

>>56180979
yeah heard of this, even tried it before i think, but i'll give it another shot.

I just started using i3 and it's pretty neat. Have only ever used "normal" desktop environments in the past. But so far, I like it a lot.

However, I have noticed that when the screen blanks due to inactivity, it has issues when I am active on it again. I am using a dual monitor setup (one laptop one standalone), and for whatever reason, the laptop monitor will stay blacked out until I reboot the computer. The standalone monitor works fine, though.

Even when I unplug the standalone monitor, the laptop monitor stays blacked out. Any ideas on what's causing this?

I'm using Debian stable (Jessie).

>>56181002
>>56180619

>>56180990
I did the essentials. I am using arch and everything is working as intended.

Anyways, I uncommented and it worked. Originally, I had en_US.UTF-8 uncommented and thought that is all I needed. Would it be fine to have both en_US and en_CA uncommented?

>>56181066
Thanks but I was just curious if people are actually bothering to switch out ondemand for something else.
Sidepoint: I just tried to switch to powersave by adding a file to /etc/defaults/cpuwhatever but Ubuntu switched it back to ondemand. Gonna find out what caused that.

>>56179784
Does literally no one use KDE here?

How is it that when I run this

echo -e -n "\a"

to produce the bell character, in urxvt I get a different sound than when I run the same command from a tty (in a tty the sound is a bit higher pitched)?
Also, if I run this script in xterm

#!/bin/bash
for i in `seq 1 30`;
do
    echo -e -n "\a"  
    sleep 0.1
done

the pause between beeps is much longer than when it is executed in urxvt or in a tty, but the script execution still lasts 3 seconds although the number of beeps is reduced to 20 or so. It sounds the same in urxvt and in xterm.
Also, if I execute the script in dmenu, the sound is the same as in a tty.
The speed in a tty, urxvt and dmenu is the same, only xterm lags.

I have to say, this perplexes me.

>>56181115
Why exactly do you want to manipulate CPU load?

>>56181101

You obviously didn't do the essentials. Reading the few sentences in the Beginner's Guide which explain how to set the locale are essentials and you missed that. It wasn't working as intended.

As the guide stated: you can uncomment and generate as many locales as you want/use.

how do I uninstall something without breaking everything? When i'm going to uninstall something it suggest getting rid of a bunch of other packages, am I supposed to just trust that those packages aren't needed or what?

Asking because a year ago my linux install broke completely after I uninstalled something (I think it was wine), I pressed y and something critical about the DE was lost, couldn't even connect to the internet. Didn't lose anything and was only a few minutes to reinstall but still a pain, I literally haven't uninstalled a single thing since then. Using debian btw.

debian with the mate DE, was using apt.

>>56181392
I'm using KDE and I uninstall most of my bloat using discover. If I can't, then I use pacman -R and then the package name. It usually works and is smart enough not to remove a dependency.

>>56181270
not really, but just about

apt is fine, ignore the Arch memers.

Archfags, not knowing the fact that debian's retarded repo doesn't have -meta tags, were claiming that removing transmission removes desktop. The rest was butthurt shitposting

Today some anon states removing WINE removed his desktop and network. Archfags went turbo on debianfags' ass ITT.

how to apply numix icons to the xfce whisker menu program entries?

works everywhere else, just not there.
Anything I can maybe put in the .gtkrc-2.0 config entry of the whisker menu for this?

>>56182164
Also, I suggest using PC-BSD.

It has a better dep handling since it puts package files in a single directory

Hello, /fglt/.

So basically at the top picture, there is an X, a minimize and a maximize button built right into the firefox browser. The bottom picture is my current setup with openbox and the same firefox theme.

I was wondering if this can be done since I want to reduce the amount of screenspace that openbox takes and move the minimize, maximize and close buttons into the browser.

I am dual-booting arch with windows and I have seen this done on windows, just not on arch. Firefox setup is exactly the same between both OS'es.

Im confused as fuck.

Using Qbittorrent, installed it earlier today on a new linux mint install.

When I go to usr/bin and double click on Qbittorent, it opens 1 version of Qbittorent

When I try to open a magnet link from firefox, it opens a second version. Its clearly different, the theme is different it has no downloads in it.

I told firefox to use the /usr/bin qbittorent file, and its still running the wrong one.

Anyone know what the hell is going on?
My VPN software was acting all fucky too. I only installed mint on it this morning

Oh I get it now.

I've looked everywhere and I can't seem to figure out how to make a transparent terminal.

I am running urxvt and xcompmgr.

I am using KDE + Openbox.

My Xdefaults file contains:
URxvt.tintColor: white
URxvt.transparent: true
URxvt.shading: 20

If anyone is running a similar setup and can help me that would be great.

>>56183863

URxvt*.background: [80]#000000

that's 80% transparent black

ok im pretty new to linux but ive been having a problem with my mouse cursor corrupting and its usually only one 1 screen of my dual monitor setup but other times it remains corrupt on both monitors

It just randomly becomes lines or dots usually when opening a menu or clicking on something. and once in a while it will just fix it self

Running opensuse 42.1 with KDE


also anyway to get spotify to actually work on this version

Ok so my entire GUI just died after I installed a custom font from AUR (yaourt Gohufont to be precise).

Now my display is stucked to some grey unicolor background and blinks if I start messing with keys. CTRL+ALT+T doesn't call the terminal but blinks a dialog box instead, then disappear.

tl;dr my GUI is fucked, how do I get it back to normal?

how do I safely install a new kernel? I'm on ubuntu 16.04 with a 4.4 generic kernel but just started doing music production and want to move to a low latency kernel.

What is the best binary distribution for someone who is experienced with Gentoo?

I've installed compton and I've been tweaking with the config. As I expected, window transparency on the terminal still doesn't work. Should I be adding something to the config file to allow it?

>>56184555
who cares, they're just wifi passwords

>>56184547
Okay so I figured it out by using these two in my Xdefaults:
urxvt*depth: 32
urxvt*background: rgba:0000/0000/0200/c800

The problem is that I don't know how to control the transparency value or the color since hex colors are used in the terminal. Would you know how to change the color and transparency?

>>56184555
It does store WiFi passwords in plain text

Also, you can connect to wifi like this and the terminal won't hide passwords:
nmcli wifi connect <<SSID>> password <<plain text password>>

Question is, is encrypting password really necessary?

How can I reload the settings in /etc/modprobe.d without restarting the computer?

>>56184547
Actually you know what ignore what I said I figured out the transparency using the original command that you posted.

The reason it wasn't working was because I had a different line in my config setting the background color and that took place instead.

Thanks for your help anon.

>>56184589
try to replace

rgba:0000/0000/0200/c800

with

[80]#000000

now
you can change the 80 to what ever you like to control transparency and it's usually easier to deal with hexadecimal colors like #000000 (because they're more widely used)

What distro should I switch to? I do basic python development and a bit of rails dev. Currently on Ubuntu 16.04 It's pretty nice but I do not like all the bloody bloatware on it, like the software center and a bunch of things being pre installed. I do really like how easy it is to spilt windows (just drag a window to the edge and it will automatically take up half the screen) Can I use the same WE or DE with other Distros?

I was thinking of either using Manjaro since apparently it's lightweight or maybe just using Debian because Ubuntu is based off it so it should be lighter? I just want a distro with a terminal and a web browser set up without allot of bolatware.

Arch sounds tempting but I have work on Monday so I can't spend 2 weeks setting things up.
