#Linux users I'm begging you, if someone brand new to the ecosystem comes asking where to start, please don't start listing desktop environments and packaging formats. They don't care about that shit. Just recommend a good user-friendly distro like Mint, and let them come to you if they have more questions. Otherwise you're just going to overwhelm and/or irritate them.

J'ai retrouvé un vieux Pixel 3A XL ! Inutilisable aujourd'hui car plus aucun patch de sécurité depuis 3 ans, je suis en train de le faire revive en installant Ubuntu Touch dessus comme un gros crasseux, on croise les doigts ça s'installe là 🤌

#Ubuntu #Linux #Mobile

It's 2025 and #Linux still doesn't have SIGINFO. I am sad.

Finalement, ce qui va me manquer le plus dès que je vais passer mon dernier PC à #linux , c'est #indesign . Tout le reste, je me suis fait une raison, mais alors ce logiciel, je sens que ça va être dur dur dur (je le pratique depuis 10 ans, c'est mon dernier pansement à arracher)... Scribus me terrifie, et là, pour créer du matos de com' au groupe Bloquons Tout de ma région, j'ai besoin d'être efficace...
Résultat, PUISKE je suis chiante et radicale (je ne supporterai pas un dual boot Windaube-Linux), bah je retarde la migration de mon PC jusqu'à la dernière minute.
Si qqn·e a des cours intéressants de prise en main #scribus quand on vient d'Indesign, et aussi des mots encourageants pour s'emparer de ce logiciel malgré tout, je prends !

After some failure, I eventually succeeded in getting an 80x25 text #console in #Linux! Even with correct #DOS fonts. Good enough to dial into a BBS and get ANSI artwork. On a UEFI system with a framebuffer console, even.

Here is the strange saga, starting with how a pixel isn't what you think it is in VGA land, and going on through the layers of CP437-Unicode mapping that we have these days, and winding up with a useful, modern, and authentic text console on a CRT!

Working on research for a HPC storage cluster, one of my architecture doc sections quote this information from the wonderful group at Klara:

> OpenZFS In the Wild
>
> .. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) undertook porting ZFS to Linux, to form the backbone of their Lustre distributed filesystem. They noted that OpenZFS facilitated building a storage system that could support 1 terabyte per second of data transfer at less than half the cost of any alternative filesystem.
>
> Based on the success seen at LLNL, Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) started using ZFS as well.
>
> In the latest example, just a few months ago the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory announced it had built Frontier, the world’s first exascale supercomputing system and currently the fastest computer in the world, backed by Orion, the massive 700 Petabyte ZFS based file system that supports it. This impressive system contains nearly 48,000 hard drives and 5,400 NVMe devices for primary storage, and another 480 NVMe just for metadata.

So I just rebuilt my personal #python venv in my home directory on my #linux daily driver laptop. I did pip freeze > requirements.txt to capture all the packages I had installed. Then I took away all the ==a,b.c versioning so I'd install the latest compatible version.

Then I ran uv pip install -r requirements.txt. This blew me way:

Interesting article from The Register on Friday about alternative kernels. As per the article, the topic of other kernels surface again after #Linux developers continue to clash over certain tech like Rust, SystemD, and bcachefs.

The three kernels discussed are Managarm, Asterinas, and Xous. Until stumbling across this article today, I've not heard of any of them. I guess I have some reading ahead of me. The article also mentioned the idea of disgruntled devs possibly forking the Linux kernel - a fascinating and probably confusing experience for a lot of people.

Would certainly be an interesting thought experiment, now giving a valid reason to explicitly list the userland and kernel with which OS you happen to be using, ie Debian GNU/Fork-this, openSUSE GNU/Linux, Gentoo GNU/Asterinas, or whatever.

It also might just be easier and more straightfoward to use #FreeBSD instead. 🤷‍♂️

I have finally moved over to Linux as my primary platform. In many ways it is like coming home, as I loved working on UNIX machines in the past. Of course, I have been using Linux as a secondary OS for a long time, but I finally made the switch. Microsoft cancelling Windows 10 and the direction Windows 11 is going was just too much for me.

@ruario helped the transition, by making it easy for me to work with multiple concurrent @Vivaldi installs.
That is a must for me as I test a lot of builds at the same time.

I've finally been brainwashed by GNOME after all these years and got rid of my system tray extension- relying on apps that support background services and keeping those that don't in another workspace.

Great, now that Red Hat is being consumed by IBM...It leaves me in a rough spot, because, I just installed Fedora again after a long time of being on Ubuntu.

I don't have that many alternatives that really work for me aside from potentially Linux Mint (if the sound issues are resolved) or Ubuntu which always works no matter what.

No, I won't use anything Arch based because I love myself enough not to be dealing with any arcane issues on my daily driver. It's sad because I really love the pace that Fedora goes at in terms of updates. It's a nice middle ground between Arch and Ubuntu.

Thankfully, the decision can be put off a bit further, as nothing dire will happen immediately. However, eventually, shit is going to hit the fan with Fedora because IBM is a deeply idiotic corporation that will fuck up everything it touches. An unthinking corporate beast that just consumes and doesn't understand why.

🙅 Goodbye Forever OPNsense 🙅

It displeases me to finally and heartily say GTFO to OPNsense; to abandon a solid decade of use.

I've had it on everything from embedded arm64 experiments to baremetal with ranges of 10, 25, 40, and 100GbE NICs. I've used all of the core features, built complex global service meshes, H/A systems, etc. I used to love it. I used to pay for it.

OPNsense was great, until it wasn't (starting around the time they axed their use of HardenedBSD), and with each release it gets more convoluted, out of date, tedious to debug, and generally a source of disappointment. The command line controls are anemic, inconsistent, and the lack of unified and useful system state tracking is a source of sailor level obscenities. Also, dear gods get rid of XML configs, no one can parse it without going blind! What is this, SOAP and XML-RPC era nonsense, really? 😠

I do not have time to waste, and I do not say that lightly.

I am never debugging OPNsense ever again, especially not for four hours on a (yesterday) Saturday, and especially not putting off updates in a colo for TWO YEARS because their team decided to break admin group SSH controls, hamper CARP flapping controls, breaking IPMI fencing, and the list goes on. I am done.

What now? Three realistic options.

1) BSD Router Project: I've built custom BSD-RP releases with Poudriere, loved just about everything it offers.
2) VyOS: configurable via CLI in a fraction of the time that was wasted on debugging OPNsense. Solid product, enjoying it more every day.
3) OpenWRT: I build custom releases for NanoPi and Meraki rooted WAPs and SOHO boxes, it's fun, though it's not running my 100G infra.

Cher fédiverse,

Petite question dont je suis sûr tu auras la réponse: comment on organise une #installparty #Linux?

Je pense pouvoir trouver un lieu et des partenaires (Fablab, IUT, Médiathèque, assoc. locale etc.), mais je me demande :
* Quel matériel préparer? Une clef de boot de démo? Un pc de démo? Des disques de sauvegarde? Combien?
* Quelles activités peut-on faire pour faciliter la prise en main?
* Qu’est-ce qu’on présente aux gens? On leur fait un petit topo? Quelles sont les questions récurrentes?
* Combien de personnes par participant environ?

Je vais pas poser la question qui fâche de la distro, ça serait du #Fedora KDE (Xfce ptêtre) ou #Mint, mais c’est pas très grave.

J'aimerais ficeler ça parce que ça me trotte dans la tête depuis un moment.

@datordzeks at least this one says (see image's ALT).

I found Machinarium, but not much info, or at least I don't know to read it:

Girl, Puffy, Beastie, Fred, Daemon, Pocket Daemon, Penguin and Glenda are having a tea party outside on the backdrop of a destroyed city and a corpse hanging in the wind. Everyone is cheerful. Even the Sun.

Learned about apt-get distclean which is handy for complete package cleanup (esp. in Dockerfiles).

What #video cutting tool do I want to use for #Linux? I don't need fancy stuff, just grabbing footage from action cameras, making a few transitions, maybe an intro text or subtitle now and then.

I haven't played in some 20 years. Some 2 weeks ago I saw #Machinarium for free in #EpicGames's store and went and picked it up, it looks gorgeous. I also bit because it said 'windows #Linux etc'.

Now I'm trying to run it and find out that what I downloaded was a Windows EG launcher. I tried #Wine and some frontends but nothing seemed to work.

Then I tried #Lutris, through which I found there seems to be a Linux version! https://lutris.net/games/machinarium/ But I can't get it from EGS?

Help from #games!

C'est incroyable quand on y pense (enfin pas tant que ça):
quand je suis sur le même pc avec #windows il rame mais alors comme si c'était une galère à 20 rames et que je ramais tout seul, alors que quand je suis sous #linux mon ordi pète le feu

Un projet à garder à l'oeil : ATL (Android Translation Layer).
En gros, ATL est à Android ce que Wine/Proton est à Windows.
Cela devrait aider à faire tourner directement les applications Android sous Linux, sans avoir à mettre un système Android entier dans une VM.

Il y a eu des "install party" partout en France au mois d'août ou quoi ? Non parce que là, passer de 4.56% à 11.64% d'un mois à l'autre, ça fait beaucoup d'un coup quand même...

"that escalated quickly..."

in willing deleting some nix user (why nix create so many user?) he have delete all user but 5 ....
broke pacman (pacman need alpm user for sandboxing) and so sddm but hypr was still working when launched on tty.

i did do some quick linux magic (involving google, using help and reading configuration file) and now it's seems to be working.

but i think he will find other way to break linux. kudo to the arch team : with almost no user, the laptop still workish !

stay tuned for more news!

Comment augmenter l'autonomie d'un #PC #portable #Linux en moins de 10 minutes ?

Article de @Korben : Ça vous dirait d’augmenter fortement l’autonomie de votre PC sous Linux ? Ça tombe bien, car je viens de lire un article intéressant écrit par Hayden James qui présente l’optimisation de la durée de vie de la batterie sur les ordinateurs portables Linux grâce à #TLP. Avec sa config aux petits oignons, Hayden a donc réussi à augmenter l’autonomie de son #ThinkPad de 6-8h à plus de 10h et en suivant ses explications vous allez pouvoir en faire de même.

""We recently ran across a strange higgs-bugson that manifested itself in a critical system […] A higgs-bugson is a bug that is reported in practice but difficult to reproduce, […]

The Linux kernel does not actually implement this cache as suggested by the RFC, so I wrote a kernel patch to add this functionality and mailed it off upstream. I also learned that the FreeBSD kernel actually already implements this, so this is new-to-Linux but not new-to-NFS.

[…]

Both of these patches are now upstream and will be available in Linux 6.16.""

I got back to #WebIDAMd, a #systemd-userdbd-based system for using #OAuth / #OIDC / #REST identity providers for #Linux system authentication.

And I can now show off a first demo (no #PAM authentication yet, but user and group listing):

https://asciinema.org/a/728567

In contrast to #sssd's recent OIDC module, WebIDAMd is fully provider-agnostic and integrates transparently with userdbd, the current/upcoming standard in most Linux distributions instead of requiring a full separate software stack.

Some Linux users might be interested, reading about this (Subscriber link, that bypasses the Paywall, since I find this information important to spread for awareness):

https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/1029767/0a550f0972703141/

„Linux users who have Secure Boot enabled on their systems knowingly or unknowingly rely on a key from Microsoft that is set to expire in September. After that point, Microsoft will no longer use that key to sign the shim first-stage UEFI bootloader that is used by Linux distributions to boot the kernel with Secure Boot. But the replacement key, which has been available since 2023, may not be installed on many systems; worse yet, it may require the hardware vendor to issue an update for the system firmware, which may or may not happen.“

#linux #secureboot #microsoft #security #servicetweet

Highlights from the main #NFSd merge for #Linux 6.17[1]:

""NFSD is finally able to offer write delegations to clients that open files with O_WRONLY, thanks to patches from Dai Ngo. We're expecting this to accelerate a few interesting corner cases.

The cap on the number of operations per NFSv4 COMPOUND has been lifted.[…]

This release re-enables the ability for NFSD to perform NFSv4.2 COPY operations asynchronously. […]""
