Is an Intel HD 530 gpu enough to run KDE 5 on a 4k monitor and play 4k movies? I'm thinking of building a new mini-stx (stx not itx) rig for my 4k monitor so I have a separate linux machine.

Ich möchte nur einmal kurz etwas einwerfen. Was Sie als Linux bezeichnen ist in Wahrheit GNU/Linux, oder wie ich es vor kurzem zu bezeichen begonnen habe, GNU plus Linux. Linux an sich ist kein Betriebssystem, sondern eine weitere freie Komponente eines voll Funktionsfähigen GNU Systems, welches durch die GNU corelibs, shell utilities und andere wichtige System Komponente nützlich gemacht wird und ein Betriebssystem ist, wie es durch das POSIX definiert ist.

Viele Computer Nutzer benutzen eine modifizierte Version des GNU Systems jeden Tag ohne es zu bemerken. Durch eine eigenartige Wendung wird die Version von GNU, die heute weit verbreitet ist, oft Linux genannt und viele der Nutzer sind sich nicht bewusst, dass es eigentlich das GNU System ist, welches von dem GNU Projekt entwickelt wurde.

Es existiert wirklich ein Linux, und diese Leute benutzen es, jedoch handelt es sich dabei nur um einen Teil ihres Systems. Linux ist ein Kernel: das Programm im System welches die durch die Maschine bereitgestellten Ressourcen an andere laufende Programme verteilt. Der Kernel ist ein essentieller Teil eines Betriebssystems, aber ohne den Rest des Systems nutzlos; er kann nur in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Rest des Systems funktionieren. Linux wird für gewöhnlich in Kombination mit dem GNU Betriebssystem verwendet: Das ganze System ist eigentlich GNU mit dem Linux Kernel, oder GNU/Linux. Alle so genannten Linux Distributionen sind in Wahrheit Distributionen von GNU/Linux!

>>57301061
It's not that hard to remove systemd from arch or debian because they are quite modular. However there are many other packages that will pull in systemd or have systemd code. The only way to escape systemd on linux is to install gentoo and set the use flag "-systemd" and blacklist systemd and udev. (Dont set the -udev flag tho because then programs wont be able to use gentoo's udev replacemnt called eudev)

yeah i mean you could at least save your /home partition, it would probably suck to set up but i'm sure you could install a different init system, or roll that part back to a version that didn't and update everything. If its open source you can do it.

No, gentoo is the only way to escape from systemd because many binaries contain systemd code and gentoo is the only distro in which you can remove that code. Also those distros you mention have significant flaws. Devuan hasn't been updated in a year and Slackware has no package manager.

>gentoo needs days to install
Gentoo took me like 4 hours the first time I installed it, but that was because I was installing it on exotic hardware. The second time it took me under an hour. Most of the install process is just copy and pasting commands.
>gentoo needs months to get security updates
Only if your running on stable packages, but thats the same for any other stable distro except debian.
>gentoo needs hours to update
Only once in a while there's a large update that takes an hour to install. But most updates only take 15 minutes because they consist of small packages. Anyway, you can still shitpost on /g/ while its compiling, it doesn't noticeably slow down your computer, especially if you set emerge as a low priority process.

What they did was remove the systemd code from some of the debian packages that had it. But there are probably more packages now that have systemd code, plus I think devuan is still using systemd's udev instead of gentoo's eudev.

It is. They have some packages that are maintained without systemd dependencies as well.

I think, besides the forked-with-no-systemd-dependencies-packages and the blacklisted stuff, it just mirrors the current Debian repositories. But their site is vague and half-finished, so I'm not 100% on that

They're paranoid because, despite being free software, they claim that it's SO large and SO complicated that the developers will secretly add in a backdoor that goes undetected.

They also claim that since Red Hat employs Lennart (the creator/maintainer of systemd), and since Red Hat has worked with the NSA in the past, that the NSA has its hands in systemd.

just that I have absolutely no reason to change my rc scripts, Its one of those things where yes there are good ideas in it, but then it grows to do things it really has no business doing (my two cents), basically i perfer some level of compartmentalization so just in case theres a vulnerability in one service you don't sacrifice the whole OS. Its not truly fair to compare it to a kernel, once you hit user space you should have some options, and its not quite matured enough for me from that standpoint either.

free doesn't mean good, just because its open source doesn't really make it amazing either, it has the ability to be audited but that doesn't justify it being a good idea.

>>57301785
No, the linux kernel is modular, you can remove many parts from the linux kernel and make it as minimal as possible. It's just that most distros ship the kernel with all the modules installed for compatibility. However, systemd does not have this same modularity, systemd will not function without having all of it's components.

you gotta admit though, if your the NSA this is perfect though, because if your able to infect it, you have access to logging, networking, user sessions, and pretty much every service after the kernel. And with browser vulnerabilities, and some of the kernel rootkits you see in the wild, they pretty much have everything.

Why does thunar not automount USBs on its own? It works in other file managers so it's definitely not a system issue.

>>57302205
>you using a non-nvidia card
If you're using Intel graphics, enabling "TearFree" and DRI3 worked for me in Xfce. Enable vsync in Xfce compositor can also eliminate tearing.

>>57302258
Install the thunar-volman package.

>>57302258
You have to enable Volume Management, and, if enabled already, allow it to automount removable media.

It shouldn't be any more risky than sending general ATA commands, unless you use the --force option on an unsupported drive. I don't think it flashes the firmware or anything, just sends SMART ATA commands as per the manual.

Ubuntu suddenly froze up and had to be restarted and has not worked since then. Booting into any kind of live USB ends in a kernel panic, even Windows 10 didn't want to start.

Tried an arch USB and it seemed to fair the best; it managed to get a full stack trace before locking up. Pic related.

thanks senpai, I've learned a lot this thread

>>57303221
The point is the default state a distro comes to you. Changes a user makes doesn't change that. When you check the gentoo wiki etc. you see many recommendations and instructions how to install nonfree software, which is like teaching your kid how to smoke - not acceptable.

mc is good, XFE is nice as well if you want graphical, Gentoo is ugly as balls but pretty functional, Krusader is nice but you have to install all the KDE libs and it's pretty heavy on resources. Thunar is the best if you don't care about double panel and want something more like the default windows file manager, it's also good because it can give you previews on images for easy image picking when posting here.

Nothing comes close to total commander though, it's the one piece of software I miss the most on linux.

My grub never showed the memtest option so I downloaded a bootable iso from
http://www.memtest.org/#downiso
and gave it a shot.

So clearly this is saying there's a big problem (it's at 730K errors as I type this) but I'm a little concerned that it's saying my RAM is 0 MHz DDR3 (it's 3000MHz DDR4). Should I doubt the validity of these results? Memtest86+ doesn't seem to have been updated since 2013, but I can't seem to find a more recent version online.
