>Used debian
>still no closer to becoming a cute lesbian girl

I never used Linux but I decided to go full-gentoo right away. So I am now emerging the whole gnome-desktop profile. How long would it take more or less with an old SSD (160 mb /s write), an i5 and 8 gb ram? Its running since 2 hours now

Hello I installed arch linux and am having a gpu/screen rendering problem. When I launch a openbox-session it makes my screen flicker like in gif related. If i unplug one of my screens this goes away but none of my programs launch they just seem to forever load. Im using the amdgpu drivers like a anon in the other thread said but can't get this os to work properly. It's making me really sad plz help.

My virtual linux and win 7 can't communicate with eachother but they can with my main OS. I wanted to setup samba between the two virtual machines, they are both using NAT and host only. What do?

Is rtorrent still the best?

What would be a good laptop to put linux on hassle-free?

I'm running linux right now, but I'll probably replace it at some near point in the future and want to know what brands have the least amount of fuck-ups.

Even my one still fucks up after a year of usage(namely due to screenhanging) and stamping out bugs so I just want to avoid unnecessary hassle and just do stuff.

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.

I'm trying to install Debian from a USB drive, and it's prompting for firmware. I have the firmware on another drive, but it's not reading it. If I plug the bootable USB drive in, it's read-only and I can't put the firmware on it. How do I add the firmware on to the bootable USB?

>>60057320
Just consider: the GNU Project starts developing an operating system, and years later Linus Torvalds adds one important piece. The GNU Project says, “Please give our project equal mention,” but Linus says, “Don't give them a share of the credit; call the whole thing after my name alone!” Now envision the mindset of a person who can look at these events and accuse the GNU Project of egotism.

Login to the tty and troubleshoot from there. I dont know exactly what to tell you, its harder to figure out someone elses issues from vague thigns like this than to figure out your own. Id look at xorgs logs first.
If your autism level isnt high enough to figure it out, there is always saving all your config files and data then reinstalling.
I have heard systemd is hell when it doesnt just werk.
Theres just not enough information here to just give you an answer.

you come into this thread that's supposed to be friendly, you spam your help request even when there have been multiple answers already, keep on insisting there has to be a "better" answer than the one's you've gotten and you write like you're 13.

Is it possible that Arch is too much for you? Reinstall your OS with an easier distro and learn a bit about the software you're using, please.

>>60057826
There hasnt been any actual answers though.

>>60057508

alternatively, refrain from installing a real man OS until you have the brain capacity required

what is the use of multiplexers like tmux and screen?

>>60057355
Use a nonfree iso image
Or use the non net installer (full dvd1 I think) and sideload the files on a flash drive via cp to /lib/firmware, or dpkg if you have the deb, then finally reboot.

y'could look up xorg logs and see where they go. Im pretty sure its /var/log on arch too
y'could try reinstalling the graphics drivers, maybe trying to do so would reveal some broken dependency problem
maybe go on archwiki and look at the systemd article, and see how systemd stores logs, then figure something to look through from there
This is sort of a risk if you fail to update arch regularly. Keeping it relatively updated is important.

>>60056301
Debian is no longer the cute lesbian girl distro, it's the ugly SJW landwhale distro.

>>60060478 - Explanation

In the for loop it is determenened if you've used the -F flag (for fullscreen), so that some flags can be changed depending on that later on, see the 3 places that start with

$([ -z "$fs" ] && echo -n

.
The first two make it so the child feh and mpv are executed in fullscreen if -F is passed.
The last one changes some flags for non fullscreen mode.

The main feh command is executed in thumbnail mode, with some preset values and actions.
You execute an action by hovering over a thumbnail and pressing the coresponding number.
The action that doesn't have a number is the main one and is executed on click.
When the main action is executed, it checks if the image you clicked on ends with .gif and if so, opens it and all the gifs in the file list in a mpv playlist.
If it's not a gif, it opens it in feh, this time in normal mode, with the same actions defined.
If you've used the thumbnail mode, you'd know that you cannot cycle through images by default, so I had to do this to fix that problem besides adding the actions.

The reason why It's mostly just one long command and why I didn't split it into more functions and variables is because feh actions don't see anything defined in the script.
So I had to embed code into feh actions.
You should be able to easily change or remove any line.
Just make sure to end it with a backslash.
Also pay attention to nested quotes and variables in quotes that need to be escaped in order to be interpreted later.

I highly suggest that you read through the feh man page, especially the part about actions.

When executing it, you can pass all the arguments that you'd normally pass to feh, including flags, files and directories.
You can overwrite a flag that's in the script on the command line.
You can also add more actions on the command line.

>>60060692
I don't have too much experience with scripting, this is the first serious one for me and it gave me such a hard time because of all the quotes.
It took a few days until it was perfected, you can see that I've sought input from you anons a couple of times in the previous threads.

Slackware has a kind of unique feel thanks to its tools. The community package manager slackpkg is pretty cool too.

The most original experience I had came with Source Mage. The only caveat is that is mostly source based, but the amount of configuration and the things you can do can certainly make fall in love to many.

(some of the options here are unused this time, i just edit this to suit)
most of the time i just change qmin/qmax to adjust the quality/size, 5/40 is typical "good enough" quality, ~5/20 for good quality, and ~5/10 for high quality
i had to bump it to 5/43 here because it was just a touch over 3M with my defaults

feh is just made for command line only users and I never saw it utilized fully for that purpose.
Most people just use it to set backgrounds, which is really a shame.
The purpose of that script is exclusively to make living on the command line easier.

I guess feh is literally the only program that can DE independently set a wallpaper properly.
Everything else draws on the root window, which is usually already covered by a compositor.

>>60061813
I implore you to read the man page.

Here's one example of using actions.
Let's say you want to move some of the images you've downloaded into different folders.
You can do this

fehwrap -F --action1 'mv %F ~/images/anime' --action2 'mv %F ~/images/4chan/'

That will override the actions in the script (you don't need them anyway).
Now you can just press 1 or 2 when you hover over a thumbnail to move it wherever you'd like.
Not using ';' as you see in the script makes feh cross out the images that the actions were performed on.

>>60061813
Also, copy the contents from /usr/share/doc/feh/examples/ into your ~/.config/feh
You can change any keybinds and mouse binds you'd like.

Also, I have to add, the non fullscreen window will stretch to be as long as the screen heigth.
I had to limit it in my i3 config because setting geometry in feh will open the tumbnail mode in the middle (you'd need to scroll up to the start).
This is what I used to limit the window heigth in i3

for_window [title="(?i)fehwrap-nofs"] floating enable move down 100px
for_window [title="(?i)fehwrap-nofs"] resize shrink height 900px
for_window [title="(?i)fehwrap-nofs"] resize grow height 400px;

is it possible to, instead of manually running programs with optirun or primus, or using bumblebee, to just switch GPUs (with Nvidia optimus), for the entire session, and then restart x/log in again, or reboot to switch GPU? i basically only ever use my nvidia gpu on power, and it's much less convenient to use optirun than to reboot IMO.

Ranger has only single image preview.
You can't use it to sort through large ammounts of images with stupid filenames and perform actions on them based on the thumbnails efficiently (unlike feh).
That was the only reason I used graphical file managers until I learned feh.

This should be reposted on the next thread, it needs a better formatting and visibility.

The most important question is :
what's its name ? Do we have a logo ? Can it be improved ?

>>60062610
it looks like it still allows you to use the now largely deprecated consolekit instead (this is mostly replaced by systemd-logind because it isn't maintained or actively developed any more). I think Mate will probably never depend on systemd because of its development philosophy. KDE can integrate with logind but it's totally unnecessary, and will probably never actually need systemd, because of its close relationship and common use with BSDs. Maybe cinnamon too. Even DEs that depend on systemd/logind don't actually need it, because the GuixSD developers separated logind to become elogind, which works on all distros. Void and Gentoo have elogind instead and GNOME works fine (in fact, Void got 3.24 before arch, basically as soon as gnome released it.)

>>60060478

If you mean the code, I've done as best as I could.
I've made it so you can easily just remove or replace entire lines if you don't like the options.
Just be sure to end each line with \.

is it possible to display images/video in tty at all? I heard that with libcaca you can actually play video without x or wayland, I think it was using mpv.

When I have more time, I'll try to implement that.
Maybe I can use ffmpegthumbnailer to generate thumbnails for videos (put them in /tmp or something and add them to the file list) and make the main action open the corresponding file in mpv.
It shouldn't be that hard, maybe some of you anons can do that?
