here's my current thinking put fedora on a usb with persistent storage, install all the software I use to make sure it works and test all my hardware works fine - if it does backup all my files and install fedora, is this a good plan?

>>57897570
whoops ,for >>57897558

>>57897577
hes a retard who doesn't understand the concept of software auditing
fedora has a MAC (mandatory access control, look it up) which was initially created by the nsa

>>57897570
you can intentionally write bad open source code that allows escalation

>using a security tool made by an agency which main goal is breaking security

>>57897607
ok so I read it and this just basically means the admin account has control of all the other accounts? or am I misunderstanding?

>>57897621
which selinux doesn't allow for as far as i know.
feel free to prove me wrong though, show me how it's bad and how it can allow for privelige escalation.
i'm willing to bet my genitals on you not even being able to comprehend what the source code does, even the basics
it's also made by an agency which requires the best security on this planet.
>>57897633
not really. you could think of it as a system which has more strict permissions than the standard linux minus gnu user system.
i believe it's automatically configured in fedora so you don't have to fuck around with it that much

>>57897662
so it's nothing to actually worry about it's just an anon shitposting because it was made by the NSA

>>57897689
yeah. these retards are either too stupid to grasp the concept of software auditing or they're just shitposting retards. either way, just ignore them and do you own research.
selinux has been audited a fuck ton of times precisely because people distrust the nsa, rightly so. nothing bad has been found until proven otherwise.

>>57897703
why taking the risk in using fedora with nsa software out of the box when there are distros without nsa software around?

>>57897757
why speaking english like a retard and not knowing about software auditing which implies there are no risks if the audit hasn't shown anything malicious

>>57897773
y-you too

>>57897757
>take the risk
if its been extensively audited and nothing found like he says, there is essentially no more risk than using anything not coded by the NSA
The NSA Uses redhat, im pretty sure. And they want to have as strong security as possible. Why would they slip backdoors into their own fucking software, for some other intelligence agency to find and fuck them up with? Not every involvement the U.S government has with software is compromising it to spy on its users, they need their own shit too.

>>57897837
l-learn b-basic e-english or gtfo, bruh

>>57897846
The NSA using software X is a reason for using it yourself, not against.
Avoid like the plague software they don't use.

>>57897859
y-you t-t-t-2-t-too

>>57897860
it isn't a reason for using it. it's simply a neutral statement about it not being riskier than literally anything else.
i'm sure there is some small piece of unauditied software on your system right now. it is technically more riskier than using selinux.

if you need/want it - use it.
if you don't need it/dont want it - don't use it.

>>57897859

why are you trying to be be other posters?

Not sure if i should post here but was hoping someone could help me.

>>57897505
related to that pic: anyone got good documentation on installing GNU/Linux on the Lemote Yeelong?

The repos for the Debian install on it by default are broken. Switching to official Debian repos gives errors about missing PGP keys. Adding them doesn't work. Was just planning to do a wipe and reinstall, but it's difficult to find guides on this thing, and you have to do a bit more than you usually do with installing GNU/Linux on something.

-USE flags allows great customization of software
-CLFAGS optimize software for your PC, enabling advanced features of your CPU resulting in potential speed increase
-great for developers and cross-compiling
-multiple versions of software are available to install, a lot of programs (especially development programs and libraries) support having multiple versions installed simultaneously.

And if yast fails, you are lost.

Ok so I have been distro hopping for like two weeks since my KDE Neon installation started crashing.
I need something relatively stable, easy to install/setup, good looking and something with new software.
Today I managed to install Debian testing with KDE just before work but havent played around with it yet, but does anyone now does it have new software or am I stuck with old versions of Firefox and other things?
Or should I just ditch all that and install Fedora? Never used it or any other rpm distro so I dont know what to expect but it seems to be perfect for me from what I've read.

tl;dr Debian Testing or Fedora for a good up-to-date system?

>>57899765
Debian unstable, testing is frozen for becoming the next stable.

exactly the same thing as when you upgrade firefox normally, extensions are updated or disabled (if incompatible with the new version of firefox) automatically

>>57899765

If you're using proprietary GPU drivers Ubuntu LTS is a good choice as well.

What distros should I put on my USB?

I already installed Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Debian stable, CentOS, Fedora, ElementaryOS, Zorin, Crunchbang, ophcrack, and Hiren's boot CD(technically not Linux but has system rescue CD on it so it kinda counts)

I don't think I need anything else, but I'm willing to put literally anything on my USB (it's ntfs formated and 64 gigabytes)

>>57899867
He's right.

If you're going to use Debian (which by itself is a pretty good distro that fits extremely wide variety of use cases) you ought to use the Stable branch.

>>57899765
iirc Fedora only freezes glibc and has a partial freeze on the kernel
I like RPM's much more than .deb packages but they can be a bit slower to update
I would recommend enabling the RPMFusion repos to get all the non free stuff
and I personaly enable updates-testing on my fedora installs, and I have not had a issue since
I started using updates-testing

I have a text file consisting of data as below:

txt txt2 txt3
asd1 asd2 asd3
fff1 fff2 fff3

How can I, from the console, generate formatted text from this? Say I have the following string

INSERT INTO flgt VALUES(first, second, third);

or similar. How can I take the data from the text file, insert it into the string, replacing first, second, third with the actual data?

I'm testing out a database, and need to fill it with randomly generated content for testing purposes.

Help me go full meme /fglt/. I just installed a chink msata SSD in my T430 and I intend to install linux on it.

A few months ago I fucked up while installing Ubuntu on a partition on my main drive and it fucked the Windows bootloader, and I wasn't able to fix it and had to reinstall windows.

I need to be spoonfed regarding installing a linux distro on the new SSD. I was thinking of elementaryOS or ZorinOS for a smooth transition from Windows to linux. I'm open to suggestions and I also want to know how to install it to the new SSD without touching the Windows installation.

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.

SELinux works as advertised except it is incredibly complex, so 99.99% of the time it's disabled on production servers (unless you pay for RHEL).

Speaking of RHEL, if Fedora guy here is interested you can get RHEL 7 w/all dev tools free now through their 'developer program'. It's a pretty good system if you pay nothing for it.

>>57900232
>I was thinking of elementaryOS or ZorinOS

Fedora is the most secure out of all the major linux distros by default install. They actually sandbox shit, pay attention to the firewall ruleset, have competent repositories with (usually) timely security patches ect.

Of course you can make any linux distro 'secure' with grsec patches or setting up your own SELinux sandboxes but that requires work and maintenance. It's like the difference between Net/FreeBSD and OpenBSD. One by default has all the protections enabled and the others you have to do it yourself

There's Ubuntu Mate, Xubuntu and about a dozen other versions. You can always after installing generic unity change everything you want.

>no es bueno, same result
working here

are you trying to connect to a windows 7 machine, by chance?

Will wayland ever become widespread? Will it ever replace X? Will people avoid it like systemd and create non-wayland distro forks?

Some day some anon will join /fglt/, ask a question about any distro and will get a non-meme, well-informed answer. Let's just wait.

>>57900725
Fedora 25 uses Wayland by default

>>57900734
Who cares about Fedora

>>57900725
It still lacks basic features like gamma adjustment nad has no powerful features like remote desktop. X server is actually the systemd in this case, and they are getting rid of it.

It's actually some dodgy chink single-HDD NAS running god knows what OS.

I can access it via Thunar. without any credentials.

I think I fucked something else though. Tried to connect to my BB Q10 via SMB and the connection does require proper credentials. Despite using correct user/password/domain it still results in the same error.
I compiled mc with samba support and libsmbclient is installed.

What could be wrong?

I love:
- gnu
- linux
- gnu/linux
- systemd
- arch linux

>>57900725
systemd is really the only choice now due to maintenance, even obscure distros like Exherbo thats what they're mainly going with. Linux is now muh cloud/container OS and desktop is being abandoned for devops shit like NixOS, CoreOS, KVM headless containers running proprietary apps.

Future of desktop is a dumb terminal like Chromebook that connects to cloud junk through webassembly proprietary binaries. Apple, MS, they're all going this route too

Since I want to install Ubuntu onto a new SSD, can I just physically remove my HDD with Windows on it and then install Ubuntu to the new SSD, and then once its installed, put the HDD back in?

I'm doing this to avoid fucking up the bootloader.

>>57901078
This is what a bios is for, just rearrange the disk start priority to your SSD instead and install jewbuntu

I'm confused. Wouldn't the Ubuntu installer detect the windows HDD, meaning I'll be able to fuck it up?

>>57901139
Sweet. So after Ubuntu is installed, I can simply chose the drive to boot from from BIOS whenever I start my laptop? This is what I wanted.

>>57901187
>Sweet. So after Ubuntu is installed, I can simply chose the drive to boot from from BIOS whenever I start my laptop? This is what I wanted.
yes

you can also update your grub config so it shows windows in the list as well, and just boot from that disk

>>57901203
>you can also update your grub config so it shows windows in the list as well, and just boot from that disk
I'll do this after I've installed Ubuntu. Last time, when I fucked up the windows bootloader, I got the option of win10 in grub but it wouldn't boot it and would return to the grub screen.

Use something easy to remember, like a common name that you use for yourself. Forgetting your name is kind of weird.

To fix this, log in as root. ls /home/ and see what name is there. There, you have your name. Now as root you can also change the password by typing passwd yourname. Don't literally type yourname, but the name that you found in /home/

Ok guys I just installed Ubuntu and then reinserted my HDD. Everything seems to be in order.

Now, how do I add a win10 option to grub?

>>57902507
I like CWM from OpenBSD. It has a GNU/Linux port available. It SHOULD be in the ubuntu repos, but I don't use it so I'm not sure. It's a different kind of wm. It's floating without any decorations. You can configure borders and their colors if you want in .cwmrc. Windows are moved around and resized with alt + hjkl/alt + ctrl hjkl, or by pressing alt and using the mouse to drag, middle mouse to resize. It uses very little memory. With just a terminal open uses about 200MB of ram. I rarely go above 600MB ram with many tabs open in firefox!

I noticed a lot of people using i3 are using it like a floating manager. Which is very strange, because it's shit for that. Just use CWM which was designed for that and looks basically the same (but no bar).

If it's not available in a repo, just go to github https://github.com/chneukirchen/cwm
and $make #make install

>>57902774
Alright, thanks. I really liked I3 when I had it, was snappy and didn't have to use my mouse very much.

I'll give it a shot.

>>57902707

Why can't I get GRUB to work? I've tried to install arch and Windows 10 still boots so I figured maybe I did something wrong let me try an automated distro but the same thing happened with Ubuntu. It's like Windows 10 doesn't give a fuck and is just taking the MBR back or something.

It's a desktop skylake system with 3 drives, win10 is on one of the drives and the linux installs were on another one.

>>57903761
Ubuntu asks where you want to install the GRUB boot loader. If you installed it to the drive you installed Ubuntu on, then the BIOS/UEFI will still link to wherever it is linked to. In this case Windows.
Hit F11 during startup and select the disk with Ubuntu. You can permanently set it in BIOS settings.

>>57903630
You might want to check the ownership of the files.
They should be root:root

No software is going to come out of your computer screen or ports, and fucking slash your god damn throat. No sane adult would think this.

RMS is basically a homeless loser who hasn't made any real contributions in the last 20 years. He is still super butthurt that Linux beet HURD (but hey, HURD just got basic sound support in 2016!) and basically tries to claim Linux because Linus used GCC and the GNU coreutils. He survives on the charity of others and speaking engagements where he spouts his insane, paranoid, philosophy. Basically he won't be happy until all the programmers are homeless hackers like him and all the companies are shut down. How people are supposed to support themselves and their families in that scenario aren't things he has to deal with because he is basically a permanent grad student. He does make some good points about privacy, but for him, there is no middle ground. Anything that may reduce your privacy even the slightest bit (like movie recommendations on Netflix) is evil according to him, and must be destroyed. In a lot of ways he show classic signs of mental splitting, which is a classic symptom of mental illness. To top it off, when he does write code, he does so in the style of the awful GNU style guide which is a crime against humanity IMHO.

Woah woah buddy stop sperging, he actually uses free as in freedom Thinkpad with an Atheros WLAN card that has fully free as in freedom drivers and a reflashed BIOS for Libreboot that removes Intel DRM engine necessary to initialize the CPU (IME).

You can actually buy one from FSF-approved vendor, albeit it's retardedly expensive for what it is (almost decade old laptop)

And firmware for devices like storage devices and motherboard components save for bios are transparent to the user.

Previously he used a chink-designed and chink-made Lemote Yeelong netbook with authored Loongson MIPS cpu running entirely on free software.

Salt

>Good thing,another would have taken its place
More salt

>As linus has stated various times,publicly, if there was no gnu he would have use another project avalible at the time, gnu is nothing special.
But GNU was there so he picked the superior option

>You act as if there was only ONE PROJECT avalible at the time, there were many
Please don't get me started with your bsd and their cucklicense.

But when you type "sudo apt install firefox" or "sudo apt-get install firefox" into the terminal, the same thing still happens, right?

“Free software” means software that respects users' freedom and community. Roughly, it means that the users have the freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software. Thus, “free software” is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should think of “free” as in “free speech,” not as in “free beer”. We sometimes call it “libre software,” borrowing the French or Spanish word for “free” as in freedom, to show we do not mean the software is gratis.

We campaign for these freedoms because everyone deserves them. With these freedoms, the users (both individually and collectively) control the program and what it does for them. When users don't control the program, we call it a “nonfree” or “proprietary” program. The nonfree program controls the users, and the developer controls the program; this makes the program an instrument of unjust power.

The four essential freedoms

A program is free software if the program's users have the four essential freedoms:

The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).
The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.

A program is free software if it gives users adequately all of these freedoms. Otherwise, it is nonfree. While we can distinguish various nonfree distribution schemes in terms of how far they fall short of being free, we consider them all equally unethical.

Yes.

From the apt manpage
>All features of apt(8) are available in dedicated APT tools like apt-
>get(8) and apt-cache(8) as well. apt(8) just changes the default value
>of some options (see apt.conf(5) and specifically the Binary scope).

In any given scenario, these freedoms must apply to whatever code we plan to make use of, or lead others to make use of. For instance, consider a program A which automatically launches a program B to handle some cases. If we plan to distribute A as it stands, that implies users will need B, so we need to judge whether both A and B are free. However, if we plan to modify A so that it doesn't use B, only A needs to be free; B is not pertinent to that plan.

“Free software” does not mean “noncommercial”. A free program must be available for commercial use, commercial development, and commercial distribution. Commercial development of free software is no longer unusual; such free commercial software is very important. You may have paid money to get copies of free software, or you may have obtained copies at no charge. But regardless of how you got your copies, you always have the freedom to copy and change the software, even to sell copies.

But not everyone will want to change or improve the code becauz not everyone is a fucking programmer.

"But not everyone will want to use their constitutional right to freedom of speech because not everyone is a fucking free thinker"

Great argument there you dumb nigger.

>>57905794
Why should i give up 10 million lines of code and 5 years of my life, just so im "labeled" by some arbitrary "foundation" as being "proper"?

>>57905879
You tell me bub.

>>57905894
I don't :^)

>>57905902
That was easy wasn't it?

>>57905635
Of course not. That's ridiculous. Why would you even do that.
I know of people who have done it. One friend did it so he could not possibly think of anything different than his work at the moment he uses it. Since there's nothing to look at.

Today marks the beginning of my quest to seek out an answer to the question which will forever determine what kind of man I'll inevitably grow into:
Whether or not I agree with Richard Stallman.

Much research, hard philosophical questions, and self discovery lay before me. Wish me luck.

Even if you don't you still benefit indirectly.
If the program developers add some features that invade your privacy, privacy minded individuals can fork it without these features.This also creates disincentive to profit in that way and to pressure others to add such malicious features.
