/fglt/ - Friendly GNU/Linux Thread:

have a nice evening anons

we should get this thread off to a good start. can we have no distrowars tonight please

>>57488144
it's still morning where I live god d*mn it :(

Great, LinuxLive USB Creator 2.9.4 fucked my pendrive. It shows inside Windows 7 devices and disk tools, but I can't format it anymore.
What to do now?
Fucking Solus! Never used I but how I already regret.
Already tried Generic USB Format tool and get this error: "There is no media in the specified device".
I'm afraid its dead forever.

does this friendly thread have any security pastas for someone who is almost completely illiterate in this subject?

>>57488205
I believe in security through isolation. Due to the current state of technology you cannot avoid using dangerous closed source software and habits. However It's upto you how seriously you are going to take your security.
Although Privacy and Security are correlated, are completely different priority. Sometimes you actually want your privacy to be breached to a certain extent to be secure from malicious attackers.
Here are my security advices:

Install GNU/Linux. Have MAC or RBAC enabled. Don't log in as a root.
Only install the softwares from your distro's secure repo
Use the Grsec kernel with PaX patches.
Use uBlock origin. HTTPS everywhere, Disconnect and Decentraleyes.
Use a Secure DNS.
Never keep yourself logged into anything.
If you want to compromise your privacy, enable two phase log in, However please do not link your email IDs as "referential IDs". Just make sure one email ID does not trace back to the other one you got.
Use a password manager. Best way is to maintain own encrypted spreadsheet.
Never use flash.
Install and keep firewall enabled at startup.
Keep bluetooth and printer service disabled by default.
Never give your windows VM any network access.
Do not bank or shop online unless you really have to. NEVER INSTALL YOUR BANK'S APP IN YOUR PHONE.
Randomly change all your 16 digit passwords. Use your spreadsheet to keep track of it.
Analyse your data traffic to check for network tapping.
Always keep a mirror backup of your data. Create your own cloud storage if you are really serious.
Lastly, only visit trusted websites

Reminder that there are malwares can exploit your host file system. Bidirectional file and clipboard sharing should be handled with caution.

>Protip:
You cannot "download" or "install" security

I'll say it again. The deb you are trying to install was designed for ubuntu which has the package it is asking for split in to an individual package. Debian has it packaged differently do you will need to install the package which it comes with in debian.

Why?

>>57488453
It defeats the security model that's been in place for years. Applications are meant to be run with non-administrative security (or as mere mortals) so you have to elevate their privileges to modify the underlying system. For example you wouldn't want that recent crash of Rhythmbox to wipe out your entire $HOME/Music directory due to a bug. Or that vulnerability that was just posted in ProFTPD to allow an attacker to gain a ROOT shell.

Its just good practice on any operating system to run your applications on a user level and leave administrative tasks to the root user, and only on a per-need basis.

>>57488453
It allows misbehaving (or even malicious) software that you execute (say, any proprietary software), to run with the same privilege as you, giving it full system access. You should use pax/grsec hardening and use different users/group to manage privilege (or extended attributes).

I always tend to think these questions are either trolls or made by distro shills so they can use their favourite distro by preference

>>57488739
you're fueling his reasons

I made a big mistake and bought a pre-built a few months ago for vidya.

I've tried installing all the major distros (Ubuntu, Manjaro, Fedora, Antergos, Solus, etc.), DVD, USB, netinst, etc. None of them work. Of course, the machine runs Windows 10 just fine.

When I try to boot into CLI, I just get a stream of text that's impossible to read (something about "print" .. I imagine it's graphics related). When I try to boot into GUI my cursor is stuck in the upper left corner and doesn't move. I can't alt-tab through any of the GUI installers, there's always a place where alt-tabbing doesn't work.

I feel like it's kind of a lost cause at this point. Googled a few solutions but found nothing. Should I start looking at building or buying a cheap refurbed prebuilt with good a Linux track record?

Please avoid using the term “google” as a verb, meaning to search for something on the internet. “Google” is just the name of one particular search engine among others. We suggest to use the term “search the web” or (in some contexts) just “search”. Try to use a search engine that respects your privacy;

Any reason to move from Fedora to Antergos? I'll be installing it on my laptop. I use GNOME3 and I love it. Mainly wondering if pacman is that much better than yum/dnf.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

linux mint is absolute meme when it comes to security.
Not only it's maintaners are absolute fucking dogshit at protecting it (the famous .isos on the main page being malwared) but also they purposefully took Ubuntu and dumbed down it's security measures (no apparmor profile)

I don't even use Fedora (well not anymore, I threw a tantrum recently and switched, Fuck fedora, the only thing neat about it is development. Sucks for everything else, especially for daily use)

But cvedetails lists fedora as the distro with the least amount of vulnerabilities, far less than any other OS (be it from the Windows or *nix family)
Fedora maintainers (from the critical branch) are obliged to use hardware verification keys on top of the usual security measures.
Fedora doesn't allow any non-free software save for binary kernel drivers in it's default repositories.
By default it's locked down as fuck

And most importantly - security through obscurity. It's kept up to date, meaning less chance for a critical vulnerability to stay for long.

Turns out alcohol is a 0/10 pain killer. I'd never use it again in any circumstance. I drank just enough to get the pain to manageable levels and I ended up puking my guts out.

Still drunk, though. Suggest a distro.

I've been using it since f19.
It's the small things, that usually get ironed out after some time or I can manage to find a way around it.

But a recent update completely fucked up my ability to use my samba network while firewalld is running and it was the last straw that broke the camel's back, I'm not going to arse myself to fix it manually, it's their fucking job.

Despite that I still am convinced that there's nothing that is able to compete with development for fedora and fedora-based stuff.
rpmbuild and it's SPEC files are cum inducing and a bliss to work with.

Really? I think it's legal here, might give it a try. Right now I have to physically stimulate my heart to not enter a sleep state or worse (as in puking myself to death) It's terrible. Alcohol as pain meds is 100% a movie concepts, there's no way it has ever worked for anyone in real life.

How do I change my init system to systemd? I'm using Gentoo Linux if it matters.

Any good ways of learning how to use a distro soley from the command line. Ive used these interactive ones that I found via google but they only teach basics

>>57489982
Yeah really, especially useful for chronic (non psychological) pain and long term pain patients. I don't smoke so i can not suggest specifics.

>>57490063
you're using gentoo linux and have no clue how do use the gentoo handbook?

ask the person who installed gentoo linux for you to replace openrc with systemd

some man pages are good, but some are utter garbage, if you want to learn solely from the terminal '--help' usually can be helpful for basic commands, but man it's your only way to get a complete guide.

Just make a quick search for what you want to do.

You can type in commands, read outputs or anything, use tui programs and cli ones.

>>57490544
You don't need the hardened profile to use stuff like SELinux and GRsecurity or PAX.

If you need someone to hold your hand figuring that shit out you aren't going to get it.

>>57490548
What are some good examples of cli programs? Is there one that allows me to browse the web?

>>57490596
that would be w3m, for a tui webbrowser try lynx. Another nice one is cmus or moc.

>that's gonna break my machine!!! i don't want that!!!
Gentoo doesn't have this problem. You can check right now:
find -type f -mtime +30 -exec mv {} /dev/null \;

It will literally check if your Gentoo will break or not

When you install compton now it sets up a default config. where does it go?

without havin got create your own compton.conf?

i get a screen tear on top when i create my own.

back in day inf you installed compton it did nothing till conf file

You guys say not to use root profile to install. What does that mean/do? How do I know which profile I'm using? How do I change profiles? How do I make a new profile?

The default configuration is available in /etc/xdg/compton.conf. For modifications, it can be copied to ~/.config/compton.conf, or to ~/.compton.conf.
To use a custom configuration file with compton during a session, use the following command:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Compton

>>57490818
Fool, it's a gentoo specefic command. Just like
cd ~; for x in `ls`; do sudo mv -f $x $y; y=$x; done

>>57489485
No. Because you are plugging your monitor into both cards, the card used by Linux and the card used for Windows. This means that if you have a 144Hz monitor it'll run at 144Hz perfectly when using the monitor as long as the graphics card is connected through DP or DVI-D.

However if you are using a 144Hz monitor and a internal GPU for the host (Linux), that means that the Linux distro won't run your monitor in 144Hz because the Intel internal GPUs don't support 144Hz believe it or not. However you'll be gaming in 144Hz on the VM completely as normal so no, you won't have any latency issues or input lag whatsoever.

>>57490825

Long story short I spilled beer on my laptop, shorted out the hard drive :/. So I have two options: get a new hard drive, or buy a new small laptop. Taking into accout that I just use my laptop for watching videos, surfing the web and editing documents (no gaming, no video editing, etc.), and would have a barebones Arch with i3 and no DE, should I get a new hard drive (would probably be ssd), which would be cheaper, or a new mini-lap/netbook that would be a little more expensive, but much more portable? If SSD, what size?
