What IDE / tool do you use for programming?

>>60532641

What is the best way to create a shortcut in whisker menu

>>60532641
Sublime Text Editor 3 for casual programming

>>60532641
Vim and the language's compiler or interpreter. Bigger projects I would switch to sublime text as I prefer the way it handles folders and separate files.

i want to get Fedora but I don't see an .iso download anywhere on their page. what the hell is "fedoraMediaWriter.exe" ?

>>60532712
>>60532733
Sublime looks pretty good. I'm too used to Visual Studio so Vim doesn't appeal to me, I need all those fancy features.

>>60532800

how can I customise my Linux a bit more?
(xubuntu btw)

>>60532712
Also, you say casual programming, are you just a hobbyist or do you use something else for work?

>>60532889
I like to learn programming in my spare time, so I just Sublime. I don't actual program for work or anything, but I'm not saying one shouldn't use Sublime for serious work either.

well i think as a guy said last thread im going to go with openbox + tint2, but id like to ask why use it over i3 or awesome? I like that openbox is floating but a lot of people are passionate about using tiling window managers. Aso, Am i correct in thinking a DE is really just software bundle which restricts the user moreso?

>>60532800
it creates boot media iirc

>>60532916
Oh okay, same here. I'm just curious about what the popular IDEs are here, I recently came from Windows. Sublime seems to be popular. I'm gonna go so more googling and see what's out there.

How do I Linux without becoming an autist?

How do I setup a printer in xfce?
I've been using Linux for only a couple of months with kde and switched to xfce yesterday.
Kde has an easy to use gui for setting up a printer in the settings menu. Apparently xfce has nothing to help with printers built in.
I tried system-config printer so far but I can't get it working.

I'm using Arch with xfce and lightdm.

>>60533107
1. install CUPS
2. install extra CUPS "drivers" as needed (gutenprint, hplip etc)
3. start CUPS
4. http://localhost:631/

if you use a hp printer, install the hplip GUI and set up your printer with that.

>gtk3 Select File window doesn't even have the side preview
what do

>>60533508
install qt

>>60532951
You use it because you prefer it. Openbox is great as I like the very minimal way it handles everything. If you like hot keys and shortcuts Openbox can be configured to enable that, but it doesn't have that out of the box like i3. For me personally I use a config of dmenu and tint2 to get it just how I like it.

>>60533543

Is there a Distro that dosent suck ?
I tried Xubuntu on my x220 today and even with compton the tearing was unbearable

>>60534017

>>60533570
what is dmenu? im trying to figure it out, it says its an app launcher and menu, but that doesnt make sense. i like that open box can be highly customised but the learning curve is sure there

>>60534056
Is it trolling?

>>60534056
dmenu is a program that launches other programs. When you exec dmenu, a black bar appears at the top of your screen where it prompts you to enter the name of the program to be launched

>>60534081
just noobish and trying to figure out rice. if desktop threads were still a thing ala 2012 id ask there

How would I spawn one floating terminal in bspwm?

I thought I was on to something with "bspc rule -a urxvt ---one-shot --floating" then spawn a terminal, but apparently not.

Quick Question:

If I have set module option in /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf for the iwlwifi drivers, how do I know if they are actually working? Is there a way I can check?

>>60534292
Mother fucker. I figured it out. Window class was wrong.

Linux has several problems. Chief among them is a community full of social misfits and nerds who aren't helpful and can be rude. I was using Solydx the other day. New install and noticed my Ethernet wasn't working. Wi-Fi was fine though. The GUI didn't connect either. So off I went to the forums and I found a answer but it was full of the usual unhelpful crap.

>>60532641
I've used Atom for a while. Although even on Linux is a bit slow on startup has all the fanciness you want.

What's a good itjustworks.jpg distro that isn't too bloated by default?

Should I just go for a Debian net install with a full DE setup?

Is it possible to just install a DE without all the associated crap like toolbars/mail clients/browsers and stuff?

>>60534715

Are you sure you're not just trolling yourself?

I just started using xfce and have 2 stupid questions.

What is the shortcut to open the search dialog (application finder) ?

How do I get it to stop restoring my previous session at login.

>>60534727
Hmm, Atom looks good too.

>>60536103

You don't know about Stallman's comments on whites? They've been posted on /g/ before.

>>60536116
The pot needs to be stirred to point out how yid infested open source is. Kikes like (((stallman))) want whites to work for free as communism and marxism infest white minds. Whites cannot flourish as long as degenerate pro jew ideologies like (((GPL))) exist.

>>60536108

I must say, OPs with commie pictures is actual master trolling. They can get away with it and people must bump the thread until it dies. Theres no way to escape.

That said, it's sad that there are people who have fun with destroying something good. ;_;

(((Linus Torvalds))) is a race traitor who supports (((GPL))) over white alternatives. Linux might need a complete rewriting before it's unpozzed.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Google, is in fact, NSA/Google, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, NSA plus Google. Google is not an evil corporation unto itself, but rather another corporate component of a fully functioning NSA system made useful by the NSA PRISM project, Boundless Informant, and vital Bullrun backdoors comprising a full Ministry of Truth as exposed by Snowden.

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

There really is a Google, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Google is the search engine, etc: the web apps in the system that direct the user's attention. The search engine is an essential part of an espionage system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete espionage system. Google is normally used in combination with the NSA espionage system: the whole system is basically NSA with Google added, or NSA/Google. All the so-called “Google” website is really the data collection frontend of NSA/Google.

Communism is great on paper, not in practice. It requires a species that's not greedy at all and is always willing to help other people for survival's sake, and we're not that species, we used to be maybe; but we can't return to that primitive lifestyle nor we should.

That doesn't mean capitalism is perfect (1%) but rather the best we can do; at least for now.

>>60536331
There are many forms of communism.
The one that the Russians chose was one that enforced compulsory atheism and that pissed off a lot of people in the west.
A form of communism that allows for multiple belief systems should have few problems.
The rulers of communist Russia were academics with no appreciation for human frailty. They wanted to rule absolutely. They were set against the prevailing orthodoxy, not unlike the French Commune. As a result it was necessary for millions of resisters and/or non-conformists to die.

Not your only option, there are games that run in WINE/POL. And a windoze VM can run any game with GPU passthrough.

So on my void install sound is suddenly gone.

I never put much thought into it because it just werked, and I had the widget in the panel and my laptop's hardware volume keys worked out of the box and everything worked well. Suddenly the widget is gone, hardware buttons don't work, and there is no sound. And I absolutely don't remeber what it was using before, thought it wasn't pulseaudio.

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.

>>60537117
First off, Linux hasn't been free since 1996. There is nonfree software shipped with it (called blobs).
Second, the GPL doesn't say that you have to
>work for free
Selling software is actually encouraged: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.en.html

Linus Torvalds is a retard if he thinks we should refer to an entire OS by the name of an exchangeable kernel. The truth is that Linus NEEDS it to be called Linux. When the Tech CEOs of Apple and Google and IBM, and others hear about "Linux", they assume they are talking about the OS and not just the kernel. They then dump billions into developing "Linux" with the intent of improving the OS, but in actuality much of that money goes to over-developing the kernel (and thus the Linux Foundation gets a big chunk of that money under false pretenses). Basically, Linus wants everyone to call the GNU POSIX operating systems "Linux" so that his rent gets paid. He'd call your Android and Router and your parent's smartTV "Linux" too if he could get away with it. Linus Torvalds is a piece of shit.

>>60537251
First of all, it's fake. Second of all, the Linux kernel is indeed become bloated.

>>60537206
>GNU tools

GNU tools are available from the GNU project, but GNU is an operating system. It was created in 1983 when Linux, the kernel wasn't even an idea.

>>60537285
>forgets about embedded Linux

>>60537294
It's still Linux, retard.

People call it Linux because they are mislead by the media, which is sponsored by companies who obviously dislike to speak in terms of freedom, so they avoid "GNU" and "Free Software" and instead shill "Open Source" and "Linux".
If you call it Linux, you play for their team and help them censoring thoughts about freedom, which is the source the community was built on. This is the main problem, not the nitpicking about correct terminology.

No. It's GNU/Linux. Stallman said so and he is right as always. Calling it only GNU would be the same like what Linus does: Not giving credit and claiming everything is Linux.

Why does nobody call it *nix? This encompasses Linux, GNU/Linux, Busybox/Linux, Android/Linux, *BSD, and macOS. Sure, in some cases the BSDs shouldn't be included, but in most cases they're similar enough that it doesn't matter that much.

Here is how to get sound on a minimal install without the insanity of pulseaudio:

FIrst, you need to erase .asounrc in your home and asound.conf in /etc, after that purge pulseaudio. And when I mean purge, I mean purge.

Then, you need to identify your available devices in /proc/asound/modules, just

cat /proc/asound/modules

Here is my /proc/asound/modules

0 snd_usb_audio
1 snd_hda_intel

Now put them in order in the file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, by assign an index from -2 to 2, making the preferred output the lowest number. As I know I have two devices I want the one that says usb because that is my headphone, so in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf I put

options snd_usb_audio enable=1 index=0
options snd_hda_intel index=1

Notice the index.

Restart the computer and you have perfect sound, as well in the browser.

What is Alpine then? Just Linux? But Linux is a kernel, not an OS, and if you're using "Just Linux" you're almost certainly on an embedded device. Alpine on the other hand can be used as an actual full-featured desktop OS.

So it's clearly not Just Linux, it's not GNU/Linux because it has no GNU software, what is it then?

Mail me at "[email protected]" if you have any questions.

Sadly, a kernel by itself gets you nowhere. To get a working system you
need a shell, compilers, a library etc. These are separate parts and may
be under a stricter (or even looser) copyright. Most of the tools used
with linux are GNU software and are under the GNU copyleft. These tools
aren't in the distribution - ask me (or GNU) for more info.

Right. So NamelessOS then?

Seriously, this is retardation. Busybox is not an OS, but the Busybox utils with the Linux kernel make an OS together. You can add a GNU compiler (or a non-GNU one), you can add any DE, but the defining feature is the use of Busybox, so I believe Busybox/Linux is as good a name as any.

Linux is used by itself, or with small other programs, in some appliances. These small software systems are a far cry from the GNU/Linux system. Users do not install them on PCs, for instance, and would find them rather disappointing.
