I just watched this Lennart Poettering talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyMLi8QF6sw
and I've gotta say, systemd is actually a pretty awesome thing.

I understand that it tries to be so much more than a simple init, but it handles things so much better and makes life much easier than ever before.
Every role it takes, it does so much better. So what if it goes against the unix philosophy, if it's for the grater good?

There are absolutely no rational arguments for using an inferior init system.
Face it, systemd was the future a long time ago and that future is now.

>>56798143
Everyone who matters has already accepted it. I don't think there's a single major distro which still uses sysv init

Only purists and the uninformed think that the alternative is better. Both of which are objectively wrong.

>>56798143
We know it already

grab the rss link and use a podcatcher.

there are a few available, gpodder has a nice gui, but with my feeds, it starts crawling to halt at update and the like. not sure why, but antennapod on my phone works better.

I plugged my earphones into my laptop that runs fedora and there's a constant static noise playing. When I turn the volume down it gets quieter and when I turn it off it stops, what the hell is causing this?

>install mint on msata ssd on thinkpad

I have this problem where if I set the SSD as the default boot device it won't boot from that. It just sits at a black screen.

But if I boot from linux installed on the HDD it will go into the bootloader and let me select the linux installed on the SSD and boot from that SSD installed linux it.

What causes this/how do I fix it?

>>56798475
if you mute the mic does it still have static

>>56798475
shit's fucked

throw it out a small window

>>56798529
there is no mic they're earbuds, all of the mics in the sound settings are turned to off now and it's still doing it

>>56798475
that sounds like trouble with the soundcard itself
did you try it on any other OS?

I'm getting the same with my desktop's front audio jack, no matter what operating system or driver I use, simply because the jack is shit and there's tons of electrical interference, which you perceive as static noise.

>>56798599
do you dual boot? If I restart from windows then go to linux I get a white noise. But if I shutdown then power on and choose linux I don't.

could be a ton of things desu

I need your advice, /g/.
I think it would be useful to keep my /usr/local on a separate partition from /
(if I change/reinstall distro, it would be nice to keep all my compiled programs)
I already have /home on a separate partition.
I was thinking of moving my /usr/local on the /home partition next to my home dir and symlinking it to /usr/local on the / partition.
If that's not a bad practice, I'd also do the same with /opt and /var (I have a 500GB hdd and I keep most of my media on an external drive, so I have plenty of room to grow my pacman cache in case of emergency).
Should I do this?

When do we get a new version of ubuntu?

I made a folder on Ubuntu of guitar videos and sheet music some time ago, and have been adding to it for the last 3 months

well, this is on an external hard drive. I plugged it into a Windows 10 PC, and every folder except this one, the one I'm trying to access, is able to read.

I can't access the folder on Windows 10, but I can on both my desktop and thinkpad with Ubuntu.

What gives?

I'm using Compiz here and it keeps animating Qt context menus when they appear. Apparently, it considers them to be "Normal type" windows so it plays the Open animation I assigned to normal windows.

>>56798732
Reusing binaries is bad because you'll end up mixing different libraries and perhaps even different C libraries. Unless you plan on reinstalling the exact same version of the exact same distro, chances are it's not gonna work. A much better idea would be never compiling stuff manually (just make a package for your distro if it isn't available), then keeping a list of the installed packages around. It's not going to be the same names between different package managers, but it's going to be way easier to adapt.

What is the best GNU/Linux bistro?

>>56800046
You can, if you extract it into your root, but you really shouldn't. It's going to be untracked, which means that pacman won't be aware that you installed it, won't be able to remove it, won't treat it as installed for the purposes of dependences, won't update it, etc. Is the package not available in the AUR? And if so, is there any special reason why you can't push it to the AUR yourself?

From the last thread, how can I properly install dolphin on mate and/or xfce, and make it the default file manager? On mate I could install it, but trying to make it default became a little mess, with some stuff (specially from the start menu) opening with caja and some opening with dolphin. On xfce, I installed, and it became the default with no problems, but it wasn't showing icons. On ubuntu mate with xfce desktop it kinda worked tho.

It's not really hard, that page is just awful, as ubuntu docs tend to be, and I got lazy. Just edit ~/.local/share/applications/defaults.list and append the following two lines:

inode/directory=dolphin.desktop
x-directory/normal=dolphin.desktop

(the correct name might not actually be dolphin.desktop, I'm just guessing. if this fails, take a look at /usr/share/applications for some .desktop file that contains dolphin somewhere in its name).

>>56800407
Yep. I should have noted that the password it asked for was the root password, not your user's password. If you typed your own, try again, but use the root pw instead.

You really installed a bare-bones debian, didn't you? Even my minimal install came with sudo and aptitude...

Anyway.

su -c "apt-get install packagename"

>>56800449
Should be valid for any Linux distribution that uses xdg-utils (aka pretty much any linux distribution released over the past 5 years).

>>56800451
Try apt-get instead of aptitude. (aptitude is just a more easy version of apt).

Also don't give up too soon. You're like 3 steps away from your working Desktop.

>>56800481
When you set a root password during install, you don't get sudo. When you don't set up a root password, you get sudo automatically.

thanks for all the help man

>>56800541
tested here with apt-cache search:
xfce4 - Meta-package for the Xfce Lightweight Desktop Environment

seems the name is just xfce

>>56800530
No idea, to be honest. I had a similar issue before with pcmanfm, and it turns out that I didn't have any icon sets installed. But I don't use dolphin myself, so I wouldn't know. It's kind of a long shot, but try installing some sort of kde icon theme, and check in the dolphin preferences for any icon theme options.

>>56800554
Yeah, xfce4 is the base DE, task-xfce-desktop comes with some extra goodies. I guess you don't have tasksel either, which leads to the lack of the ^task-.* packages. xfce4 should give you a DE. Though I'm not sure iwhether t comes with a display manager.

I've been using normal Ubuntu for a while, but randomly it stopped working with my printer, and kept running into errors whenever I tried to get it to recognize it.

So I tried installing Lubuntu, just to see what would happen. The good news, is it recognizes my printer but now I have a bunch of other problems.

1) I have no sound. I google'd this and followed some steps that included downloading pulseaudio volume control. When I open this it shows that
>Port: Line Out (plugged in)
Which should be my speakers, but I get nothing.

2) None of my media keys work. I tried following this:
>http://askubuntu.com/questions/585523/add-support-for-media-keys-play-stop-previous-and-next-buttons-in-lubuntu
But I don't understand the instructions.
>Modify ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml
I already don't know what that means.

3) I have screen tearing when I scroll pages on the internet.

Turns out you don't have a web browser after all. There's ways to get out of this situation, but the two I can think of (download on another PC and copy packages over USB, or use telnet to manually write a POST request to the wifi login page) are pretty difficult to pull off and I'm not confident I can direct you over the internet. So I sadly have to recommend downloading a more complete easier to use system, and installing from scratch. Ubuntu and Mint are both good choices, as they have easy to use graphical network managers. Sorry for not being of much help.

It would be quicker to try it. Of course it is supported though, slackware is one or the oldest distro around.
The real answer, true to slackware form, would be download the script and look over the code and check yourself to see if it is supported.

>>56801787
No, they don't.

>>56800157
Duel-boot it. Or if you're not going to half-ass it just backup what you need to and install it.

Linux runs on anything, so it will run on your desktop. You shouldn't need more than 50GB for Linux and all its packages.

Failing is the only way to learn, Nick. You'll get there eventually.

>>56801838
OK

whatever files are actually part of "linux" shouldn't take up more than 50GB.

>>56801826
I guess that's something the whole GNU/Linux community needs to deal with, not just Debian. Freedom attracts all sorts of scum with mental problems. Just see the recent libreboot drama.

>>56801757
If you do screenfetch --help (or in the man pages) it gives you a list of supported distros.

why the fug

>>56801826
Here's a quote from an article linked on that page:

>Accept Your Privilege
>Once you have a basic grasp on the system of privilege, the next step is one simple self-realization: you are privileged. Chances are, your reading that has made you feel defensive. While it’s a perfectly natural, and common, reaction, don’t let it get in your way of actually thinking about what the statement means. What you need to realize is that we all have privilege to some degree: white privilege, male privilege, heterosexual privilege, etc. The hardest thing is to do is to get over your instinct to fight and say, “But I’m not like that!” If you can do it, you’ve completed the first step towards being a pro-equality in reality rather than simply saying and believing that you are.

>>56802070
Read them and find out, that's the reason they exist.

>>56802082
What utter retarded doublespeak bullshit.

>>56802082
This makes me so angry. Don't they see that they make "privileged" people by calling them "privileged" actually "non privileged"? Nowadays it's a privilege to be a women, trans or whatever special specialness else. because everyone needs to shut up or het gets harrassed and life ruined by loud screaming hords of justice warriors, maybe because he accidently referred to "her" as "him". Jesus fucking christ. Never post this bullshit again, not even ironically.

Hi guys, any idea how to have better font rendering in Fedora 24? Just came from Ubuntu btw.

>>56802310
I'd recommend to learn 2 fontconfig, but if you are lazy: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Infinality

>>56801787
Well played.

I made a live USB of fedora 24, but I can't get it to install.
If I boot from usb without uefi, I get
>FATAL: No or empty root= argument
>Refusing to continue
>System halted

Then with uefi,
>[sdc] No caching mode page found
>[sdc] Assuming drive cache: write through
It then does nothing.

Why won't it just werk?

>>56802321
Isn't that for arch linux? I did "sudo dnf install infinality-bundle" and there was no such package.

>>56802539
Did you verify the image hash?

>>56802296
>>56802082
>>56801826
I don't agree with most of what is written there, but do any of you have actual arguments? No /pol/ memes. No, they just want attention thing.

Just being angry doesn't help.

>>56802669
So find the instructions for your distro, also it's not even in the default Arch repo, see how you have to add custom ones?

>>56802816
i think it's fair to not use something because you disagree with the principles behind it
even if the sjw shit doesn't affect the distro at all, i can understand why people wouldn't want to be involved with it

>>56802843
>i think it's fair to not use something because you disagree with the principles behind it
Me too. I'm just asking why they don't agree, if they have any actual arguments. It might give you clear vision of bigger problems in society.

>>56802310
Just fucking search "fedora font rendering". It's as simple as enabling a repo or installing a package.

I didn't, but I just tried now and get

Whats causing this am I running out of ram or something?

>>56803934
in a way

arch by default puts /tmp on a ramdisk, and yaourt by default puts AUR build files under /tmp, so your /tmp could run out of space with a combination of too small a /tmp (based on how much ram you have) and too large an AUR package

you can configure it to use another folder, or for a one-off, just use "yaourt --tmp /somewhere/else ..."

I'm setting up my first server on an old laptop, just to use as a Vpn and as a cloud service using seafile.

First line: no idea. Nothing you should really worry about, thought.

Second line: It's fsck checking a partition, everything is good. I'm not sure, but I think it only runs if you mess something up, like force shutdown by yanking the battery.

>>56805422
Because i honestly thought Linux was proper RT until I started trying to do full duplex audio through ALSA.

you can't have "lowest latency" and "highest bandwidth" at the same time, normal kernels are a balance of both, server-oriented kernels lean more towards high bandwidth, and RT kernels lean more towards lower latency

I've a question about our friend "rm". How does /fglt/ deal with it? Do you use a protecting function, aliases or third party tools like safe-rm, trash-cli etc? Or do you live on the edge and just yolo-use rm?

So I have a pc at home running Ubuntu and a Nexus 5 with CM.
I've set both devices up so that I can ssh into the pc when the phone is in the same LAN, which is nice for remotely controlling ncmpcpp but doesn't help me when I'm on the go.
1) How do I get ssh access to my pc from anywhere with an internet connection? Someone mentioned setting up a VPN; can that server run on the pc I'm trying to ssh into or so I meed a dedicated device for that?
2) I can copy files from the phone to the pc via scp / ssh; does that work the other way around as well? i.e.

scp ~/localfolder/local.file anon@sshhost:/remotefolder/remote.file

copies a file from my phone to the pc; can I simply do

scp anon@sshhost:/remotefolder/remote.file ~/localfolder/local.file

to copy something from the pc to my phone?

I need an advice from you linux people.
So basically i have this small home ubuntu server and i have the following problem
i have two users on the server: me and mom
i have an user group which grants access to a bunch of directories like movies or porn, i am a memeber of that user group
i need to give the user mom access to only the movies directory so that she can't look at my gross porn fetishes in the porn folder
how can i achieve this? i don't want to create a new usergroup just for her to give her access to that one folder, that would be very bloaty

>>56805564
>>56805534
While I'm using the same alias myself, I don't recommend it. You may use a system one day without such an alias and then hell is on earth.

I guess something like:
alias delete='rm -I'
is the better idea.

Or a solution with mv:

alias trash='mv -vit "${HOME}/.local/share/Trash/files/"'

>>56807011
yes.
though there is still the fourth column of special permissions.
if you really want to fuck over your security and give every security expert looking at your system a stroke, set the permissions to 7777.
that will set the setuid, setgid and the sticky bit. allowing the file to set its own user id to root, if executed.

Just call wine with

No matter what I do to the boot order, windows comes first. On the windows disk manager, the windows partition is marked as boot and I can't change this; the "mark partition as active" option is grey.
diskpart gives me the following objection "The selected disk is not a fixed MBR disk."
But it's UEFI so why would I change from GPT? How else can it become bootable?
I can boot into arch but this involves booting into windows first and then restarting and fuck that.

>try installing the drivers
where do I find "ELAN I2C Filter Driver"?

strangely enough I no longer have audio coming from anything (mpv and browsers in particular) bar mpd.

speaker-test -c 2

also works, so I think I've set the right default card on .asoundrc
Any idea on what might have happened? I'm using pulseaudio (and need to).

>>56809022
sorry I don't know much about uefi to help on it, try searching for the problem over at the arch wiki and bbs

drivers usually have a different name with different operating system (i.e. windows and linux) check for your device on arch
try out the touchpad synaptics and see if they work

#  pacman -Syu xf86-input-synaptics

What GNU plus Linux distro would you recommend for an 11 inch 32 GB laptop? This is my first time.

This is just for fun, I've replaced the laptop.

>>56809217
Arch if you're ready to get your hands dirty and actually interested in doing so.
Ubuntu otherwise.

>11 inch 32 GB laptop
What is it?

>>56798107
My laptop keeps freezing since I installed Linux Mint on it. How do I unfreeze it without restarting it?

Serious question, how good is widowmaker? I'm using a tiny acer aspire and wanna get maximum battery life out of it. So far I've been using lxde but widowmaker has a nice aesthetic desu.

>>56809186
ok, I'll have a look. I may have found a solution for my touchpad problem on the bbs but we'll see.

Arch newbie here. Is there a way to prevent / block certain packages from being installed on pacman?Something like pinning packages with negative priority on apt.

>>56809392
Why would you want that? It's either a dependency or it's not going to be installed.

>>56809478
So I won't be able to install a package that depends on it by mistake.

I take it this is impossible on pacman?

>>56808126
Real men like thicc distro's

>>56809608
>So I won't be able to install a package that depends on it by mistake.
I know it's a dumb solution, but just use your eyes. I bet you don't install enough packages and don't need to avoid enough packages to warrant such systematic approach.

Feel free to write a patch and send it upstream.

>>56809133
pulseaudio -k

>>56809217
Ubuntu for learning, Debian for living.

so in samba i have to use separate username and password? i thought i could just use my linux credentials

>>56809298
Mint is crap, get rid of it.

>>56809392
you can edit the

/etc/pacman.conf

to include the packages you want ignored. when you try to install the said packages it will ask you if you're sure you want to install them

>>56809774
No other distros work. It has proprietary graphics, so I can't even install stuff without drivers.

Wait, is it not possible for a file to be owned by multiple user groups? Like if i want to have two user groups, one with RW and another with just R for that folder is that not possible? Because if i do ls -l there is clearly no space for multiple owner groups in the column

>>56800726
Hibernation, that's about it

>>56809757
unfortunately that nor kill fixes the problem

>>56809325
Pls respond

>>56798107
God fucking damn it. I spent one whole week trying to install gitlab on my home server And nothing is fucking working.

How do you guys relax after being increasingly frustrated with Linux?

>>56809969
By installing gentoo

>>56809969
Post your problems, then. Doesn't sound like a really hard task.

>>56809980
nice meme. do you mind if I save it?

How much different is Debian from Arch in a daily use ?
I'm thinking about trying it out, but if I have to spend as much time in the wikis as I did during my first weeks on arch I'd rather try it out in a VM first...

>>56809998
If you had installed gentoo you probably wouldn't be suffering such silly problems, memes aside.

I fixed a lot of issues, but another one just popped up and now I have to troubleshoot that one too

So, the way that gitlab works is that it comes prepackaged with nginx to just set up and install. But I already have nginx, so I had to turn off the nginx for gitlab and use configs I got online for it.

After I did all of that, I got

 502 Whoops, GitLab is taking too much time to respond. 

So obviously I checked out

 sudo gitlab-ctl tail 

. And now what it's saying is

2016-09-27_19:04:10.54887 2016/09/27 15:04:10 error: badgateway: GET "/git" failed after 0.000s: dial unix /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/sockets/gitlab.socket: connect: connection refused

And just for fun,

 du --human-readable --summarize /var/log/gitlab 

gives me

58M    /var/log/gitlab

So there's no way I'll post all of that shit. Or even going through it. At least not today

 ls -la /var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/sockets 

gives me

drwxr-x--- 2 git gitlab-www 4096 Sep 27 13:08 .
drwxr-xr-x 9 git root       4096 Sep 27 14:37 ..
srwxrwxrwx 1 git git           0 Sep 27 13:08 gitlab.socket

www-data is a member of both git and gitlab-www. So it's definitely not a permissions issue.

People come and go in these threads. Sometimes it's full of wizards, and sometimes it's full of trolls and memelords.

Anyway, I've had troubles sharing drives between Windows and GNU/Linux.

GNU/Linux is open and flexible, so it never has trouble reading/writing/detecting drives, but Windows almost always has trouble and finds things "corrupted" or "read-only" or some other nonsense.

Using "chkdsk /f DRIVE_LETTER_HERE:" in the command line usually fixes the issue for me.

>I don't think there's a single major distro which still uses sysv init
Gentoo, the basis of Android and ChromeOS, the most prolific Linux variants by far, are not onboard. Save yourself the embarrassment of riding the redhat ship into oblivion. Redhat is hemorrhaging funds to make this happen and when it fails they're done.

>>56810000
Arch is cancer, don't fall for it. It comes with all kernel modules enabled, bloated packages and no freedom to choose only free packages. In return you get no installer and need to fix stupid defaults.

>>56810000
How do you expect distros to differ in your daily use?
Your DE/WM of choice won't be magically different on a different distro. Same for browser and other things.

>>56810466

ebin!
but I guess that's the only thing you ever learn on Arch. Everything else will be shoved up your ass thanks to the AUR.

Arch is Noobuntu for the cool kids.

Let's end this thread before it's too late.

If you think Google's next gen. OS is going to be using systemDicks to promote Redhat's failure then you are mistaken. Linux is being pulled in two diffirent directions. One by the bloviating asshats at Redhat and the other by actual money making virtuoso programmers at Google. The latter is clearly going to win and it's not even debatable. This desperate attempt by Redhat to assert themselves as gatekeepers between Google and Linux is a joke and nobody is taking it seriously besides career autists like Lennart who think their grand plans are anything but a footnote in history.
