"#Gaming mit #Linux statt #Windows - Wie gut geht das?"
Thomas #Aglassiger
TLDR: Ja, geht!
Aber im Detail manchmal schwierig.
Eine gute Übersicht über den aktuellen Stand mit humorvollen Betrachtungen.
Ich höre so einen komischen und kindischen jubelton aus dem getexte derer heraus, die linux für eine der besten sachen seit erfindung des kompjuters halten. Die wirklichkeit sieht im moment so aus: eine einzige französische behörde, das amt für digitalisierung… ähm… die „interministrielle digitaldirekzjon“ heißt das dort… hat angekündigt, zu linux zu wexeln [archivversjon, der link geht auf eine französischsprachige PResseerklärung]. Mehr ist da (noch) nicht. Und von p’litlügnern in die jornalistenmikrofone gerülpsten absichtserklärungen der regierung erwarte ich erstmal gar nichts.
Trotzdem ist es eine nummer besser, als wenn die heißluft aus dem rest der EU käme, denn in frankreich ist die tendenz zur tiefgebückten USArschkriecherei deutlich geringer als in den anderen EU-staaten.
Ich lege den franzosen aber dringend nahe, sich auch alternativen zu linux anzuschauen. Der pinguin ist schon ein bisschen angerottet.
(Nein, ich kann kein französisch. Es ist durchaus möglich, dass mir ein paar feinheiten des textes entgangen sind.)

Aus der Serie "Auf #Linux Umsteigen" habe ich heute #CachyOS im Angebot, das ich mir auf meinen "neuen" Gaming-Rechner von ca. 2018 gepackt habe, einem i7 mit 12 Kernen, 16 GB RAM und einer Nvidia GTX 1070.
Dieses Video kommt in 4 Teilen, der Einrichtung, dem Gaming, dem Alltagsgebrauch und einem Fazit nach ein paar Monaten im Gebrauch - viel Spaß!

Anyone managed to make #Ventoy boot on a serial console? The very bare bones page https://www.ventoy.net/en/plugin_theme.html is not very explicit. I created the following `ventoy/ventoy.json`:

"serial_param": "--unit=0 --speed=9600",

Mit dem Auslaufen des #Windows 10 Supports und der drastisch gestiegenen Unattraktivität von Windows 11 gewinnt #Linux zunehmend an Bedeutung als #Gaming-#Plattform. Gaming-optimierte #Distributionen wie #Bazzite oder #CachyOS schicken sich an, den Wechsel zu erleichtern.
Der erste Teil des Vortrags beschreibt, wie gut sich Linux aktuell als Gaming-Plattform eignet. Dabei werden gängige Fragen erläutert wie: Welche Spiele funktionieren mit Linux, und welche nicht? Wie ist die Performance im Vergleich zu Windows?
Wie ist die Unterstützung für Grafikkarten der großen Hersteller?
Spiele von welche Online-Läden funktionieren ohne großen Zusatzaufwand (z.B. von #Steam, #GOG, oder Ubistore)? Was ist mit Spielen aus anderen Quellen?
Funktionieren Spiele mit sKopierschutz, (z.B. Denuvo) oder #AntiCheat?
Der zweiten Teil geht auf die Hintergründe ein, wieso Linux-#Gaming .... 🎮🕹🏆

My tiny brain has yet to have been convinced that AI hype is a good thing for the environment, projects it gets foisted upon, creativity, or the human psyche.
I've done extensive research; it's so horrific that if crying about it would revert things I would have cried the Amazone river full.
LLMs as companions are bad news for the human Psyche. I have contact with a few victims of these LLMs who would rather {talk to} send strings to a mathematical model then speak to a real person. Serious pshychiatirc intervention is needed
I am going to find out also why massive projects, massive open source projects seem not to care about:
... for nomal prices, because those critical components have been hijacked by data center underlords who can't even get enough permissions to build all those projects in reality
Part of it we all know, it's the LLM bubble, just like the house bubble in the USA some decades ago. Other part is that those underlords dont want us to owe our hardware anymore, so they can tighten their fascistic lock on the computing population.
Look how they want to force even open source OS to age gate the systems so they can get real ID globally
And I enjoy doing things the hard way
I've always done my projects from the bottom up, Linux when many sources needed to be crosscompiled in the alpha days from DOS, which was fun but tedious.
All current BSD flavours can be done that way too, if you still chose to do so, IIRC
Thank you for your enlightning response

Good to know: Ubuntu studio comes with RaySession, a software that allows to save a soft·hard·ware / midi / anything… patch and load it when you want to find back a precise configuration for your live. It also solves lots of trouble if you work with a web browser as a source, as it autoconnects audio contexts to your preferred destination. Thanks to @QuentinJuhel for finding that. Obviously you can download RaySession even if you don’t use Ubuntu Studio.

Linux ist heute überall. Es ist das Betriebssystem, das man sich wünscht: Vielseitig, anpassbar und deswegen oft unsichtbar.

Ich habe befürchtet das Du das sagst.
Das hat aber nichts mit #Linux zu tun.
Das ist eine Besonderheit der #Suse Distribution.
Auch wenn man die Verwaltung der Programme verschiedene Tools überlasst geht das natürlich mal in die Hose.
Auch verstehe ich nicht das die Verwaltung des Pcs lästig ist.
Per #ssh darauf zugreifen dauert maximal 2 Minuten und geht sogar vom Smartphone aus.
Allerdings hätte ich was stabileres wie #Debian als #Suse genommen.
Europa, schau auf Frankreich!
Frankreich will raus aus der Abhängigkeit von US-Tech-Konzernen. Der Plan ist ambitioniert, konkret – und überfällig. Ein Kommentar.

O.k. ich nutz kein bsd .. aber dafür bin ich ein mindestens genauso eingeschworener #unix und speziell #linux user.
Also dann mal zum spass hier mein desktop: Hardware is eine perfomante AM4 platform mit sinnvoller gpu, die 3 1920x1200px eizo FlexScan EV2456 IPS panels antreibt. Das gibt mir angenehme 5760x1200 px bildschirmfläche, wobei jedes display einzeln 1080p content beinhalten kann..
Betrieben wird das ganze von einem natürlich von hand zurechtgestricktem Gentoo linux (RIP Funtoo .. snueff) ... und als desktop kommt nach wie vor X11 mit LXQt und openbox wm zum einsatz..
Zu sehen sind auf dem desktop vorallem Particle Fleet Emergence (shout out to @globalc ;), das mittlere (2nd screen) display hat primär youtube und darunter noch ein terminal mit IRC (hello #ircnet! ;) und weiter rechts davon dann ein "floating stuff" display mit openhamclock, steam, telegram und gkrellm ;)

Wusstet ihr, dass `curl` dieses Jahr 26 wird? Ein Tool das einfach... funktioniert. Kein Abo, kein "jetzt upgraden", kein dunkles Muster. Einfach HTTP-Request rein, Antwort raus, fertig.

Par contre, si vous passez un #MacBook sous #linux, je vous invite à surveiller les températures (application Psensor notamment) et à installer un gestionnaire de ventilateur (un truc dans le style macfan****, à trouver en cherchant MacBook dans la logitheque). Par défaut, la gestion de la ventilation n'est pas adaptée (ça chauffe beaucoup).
Question to the #mail-admins here who have multiple servers and use #DANE. Let‘s say I have multiple servers and each server creates a wildcard-certificate for the same domain via Let‘s Encrypt. How are those TLSA-records handled? Or do you need a central certificate that gets distributed over all servers with a single TLSA-record? #email #unix #linux #bsd #sysadmin

I always ask similar questions like the following,
There are a lot of folk who are pissed off at Linus Torvalds, for allowing some of his maintainers to use large language models to assist in finding bugs.
The Head Programmer of the fantastic and Beautiful curl also uses a large language model in some form, to hunt for bugs, because both he and Greg from the Linux kernel, saw that the LLM used on GitHub is now suddenly much better at finding those pesky bugs.
Mind you, the only LLM I like is the one that runs locally on my low powered Android phone. That's a micro LLM

My son has Windows 10 on his gaming rig and refuses to go to Windows 11. He wants me to help him get up to speed with Linux on this machine.
He's "just a user" in every stereotypical sense of the computer term so needs help for now. He's away from home for work for five days of the week so I'm hoping I can off-load a lot of the fiddly setup stuff for him.
I'm trying out CachyOS in a VM. The installer looks pretty slick.
I noticed it offers btrfs by default [ ☹️ ] but has zfs as an option [ 😍 ] so let's try that to start. Choosing KDE desktop.
In spite of being a fairly thick 2.8GB install ISO it still seems to download a lot over the wire at install time. Kinda sux on my small, metered, Internet connection.
Would've thought more would be on the media, or get to a first boot scenario before downloading a lot of files. What if install fails after downloading all that stuff over a metered connection?
Installer sits at 19% for a very long time with nothing indicating activity. Looking at the router is showing the traffic.
I'm hoping the rolling release nature of the distro is more "curated" than vanilla Arch.
Zum digital independence day mein kleiner Erfahrungsbericht: seit einem Monat nutze ich nun Linux Mint (statt MacOS) und komme echt gut klar. Ich hatte Hilfe von einem Linux-Helden beim Datenübertrag, seitdem klappt alles prima. Also keinen Angst vorm Wechsel! Just do it 😉

Notes on #KDE
On my ThinkPad T470s laptop with KDE on Artix Linux, ‘tap to click’ feature was not working on the touchpad. I had to ‘press to click’, which was fine for a while, but I missed just being able to use a light tap on the touchpad to ‘click’.
Looked in KDE settings for touchpad and ‘tap to click’ was already selected, but not actually working.
To get it to work, I had to edit this file:
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf
and add the line:
Option "Tapping" "True"
in the input class section for my touchpad.
Logged out and then back in again. Now ‘tap to click’ works.

After reading this Ubuntu blog article, I decided to delete Ubuntu iso files and overwrite a Ubuntu USB live stick. I am going to get rid of filthy stuff. I don't tolerate them at all and I personally am very strict on not having anything affiliated with Nazi stuff or their sympathizers. I will never use Ubuntu. I will never promote Ubuntu.

Linus today on LKML[1]: """Apparently nobody actually runs #linux-next. I knew it didn't get a lot of testing, but apparently it's more like "no testing at all" than "not a lot"."""
Wondering if the problem he and Alexei ran into only triggers in some environments – then the situation might not be as bad as Linus makes it sound.
But at the same time he has a point. One of the reasons why I stay away from using -next regularly: it includes the mm-unstable/mm-nonmm-unstable branches. I often wonder if that is actually violating the rules for -next inclusion, but I'm not sure[2].
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wipMj+0_Wr+LTqYcZ2jzpxTDSMa9Y2HsMp0V22C6jx0hQ@mail.gmail.com/
[2] can't remember where they are written down, but I think it was round about "only push code to -next that you'd send to Linus for mainline inclusion tomorrow it he'd suddenly open the merge window" -- but I might be mistaken…

Dear Fedipeeps, I seek your counsel on buying the right drawing pad. Here are my ideal requirements, though I am willing to compromise (especially on the price, and except the Linux part):
- Something to use with Krita - I am not a sophisticated artist by any margin, I plan to mostly draw naive, aquarelle- and flat-like comics and text-accompanying images.
- I prefer to see what I draw on the surface, so with a screen.
- Price range up to 666€.
- I use Linux, it should fully work on it.
I used some cheap Wacom in the past, it wasn't half-bad but I don't enjoy staring at a different screen. I've seen Huion Kamvas 16 Gen 3 recommended for my requirements, but I have no idea what I'm doing.
Any tips welcome!
Appreciated if you share this toot for visibility!

My new printer stopped working under #LinuxMint the other day. Re-adding it resulted in a general error message.
Finally found the solution:
In the printer's "location" field, I had specified "Mein Büro" ("My office" in German). And Cups does not like umlauts in that field. 😶
After removing the "ü", the printer worked.
Maybe this information will be helpful to someone, at some point. 🙂

Years and years and years ago, when I used DOS and early Windows versions, there was a tool that you could install that would monitor any and every file written to a computer when an application or package was installed. I find it hard to believe that there isn't something useful like that in the Linux world. Yet, I've been unable to find such a package or program. Does anyone know of a tool that would do this?

I've just put out a Linux forensics scenario for you all to play around with. There's a contest. You r submissions are due by 2026-04-15 23:59 UTC.
On Friday I announced a DFIR challenge around a recently drafted Linux forensics scenario. This garnered a lot of interest and even a couple of submissions over the weekend.
After chatting with one potential entrant, I realized to my horror that I had uploaded an incorrect version of the scenario data. I replaced the incorrect version Sunday evening and updated the original blog post. But if you grabbed the scenario data before the change, you don't have everything I intended you to have.
The revised version contains a full memory dump from the system. And note that while the general outline of the scenario remains unchanged, the revised version will have different timestamps for some of the activity.
So grab the revised version and have at it! Thanks for your patience and I hope you enjoy working on it!

I've been running two degraded ZFS arrays for the last few weeks (Debian host).
Yeah, I know. Whatevs.
One of the pools was basically "scratch" backup space and one of the spindles died (breaking the utility of the mirror). Pulled the drive, wiped the remaining, put back in service with minimum fuss as a single drive. I'll throw another spindle at it when drive prices drop again.
The other array had the SSD cache die and it's been chugging along fine ever since. Not a big deal, but from a "experience" point of view it "feels slow" like a working md array.
New SSD arrived in the mail so that'll get sorted sometime today/tomorrow.
So, what's this post about?
Linux peeps, if you are thinking about md arrays, just stop, take the time, and throw 'yer leg over the zfs horse. It's worth it.

I have a PC with Windows 11 on one SSD and I want to install #linux on another SSD. I don't want to touch the current primary SSD at all, just boot from USB, install Linux, set that new SSD as primary boot partition in the #UEFI #BIOS and from then on have the Linux boot manager show up and let me choose which OS I want to boot. I use Linux, but haven't set up #DualBoot in literal decades. Any tips/guides for this specific case?
Why is ausearch broken? This can't just be me. Trying to ausearch using --checkpoint will "randomly" return err 12 even though the audit file is just chugging along in the background with nothing affecting it whatsoever (no rotation, no other process writing in it etc).

New #Linux #kernel #policy: when writing code, humans can be "assisted" by "#AI", but they have to disclose it, and take full responsibility, as contributors.
While this gets celebrated as a "pragmatic stance", it simply delegates responsibilities to individual contributors that no one in good conscience can reasonably take.
Would you be willing to guarantee, legally binding, with all consequences, that your "AI" "assistant" didn't copy-paste code that's under an incompatible license? Or even proprietary, stolen one?
This is a cop out, not a responsible policy. Basically the dirty #subcontractor pattern: Everybody knows that nobody can actually guarantee what they're promising, but hey, wink wink here's their signature, they "promised" it wink wink

Something that I'd love to be able to do, but haven't figured out how, yet:
You can run somecommand 2>&1 > log.txt to get STDOUT and STDERR together, but you won't know which is which.
You can run somecommand 2>err.txt >log.txt to get STDOUT and STDERR separate, but you won't know the timing, or which error messages happened between which STDOUT messages.
I'd like to figure out some way to combine both, so you end up with a file like this:
1: this was a STDOUT message
1: this was a STDOUT message
1: this was a STDOUT message
2: this was a STDERR message
2: this was a STDERR message
1: this was a STDOUT message
2: this was a STDERR message
1: this was a STDOUT message
1: this was a STDOUT message
1: this was a STDOUT message
1: this was a STDOUT message
1: this was a STDOUT message
2: this was a STDERR message
2: this was a STDERR message

„2,5 Mio. Beamte steigen um: Frankreich forciert Open-Source-Wechsel

Frankreich macht Ernst bei der digitalen Souveränität und verabschiedet sich von amerikanischer Software. Ein neuer Fahrplan sieht zudem den schrittweisen Wechsel von Windows zu Linux vor.“

I recently switched to #Linux Mint. I mean, the reasons are obvious so I will save that for a different time. What really struck me was just how easy it was to actually do it. Problems were minor and mainly due to the fact that I have an Nvidia card in my laptop.
Aside from that, I was up and running quickly. Apps I wanted, (including Steam,) were easy to find and install. There were a couple apps that I needed to find replacements for, like Notepad++.
Yesterday, I deleted my #Windows drive.

Just realised that we don't have any Windows machines in the house.
We have one iMac running Apple OSX, 2 Mac laptops running #Linux, a Lenovo laptop running Linux, a mini PC running Linux and a Microsft Surface running Linux.
Every one of these machines running Linux is stable and have no problems. 😀
My ThinkPad T14s shipped with an Intel XMM7560 LTE modem locked behind a Lenovo unlock blob. I replaced it with a ~100-line bash script that does the exact same handshake - and explains, in plain shell, what the "unlock" really is: a SHA-256 over a 4-byte constant. No magic, no blob.
Full credit to Floris Stoica-Marcu for the script.

@ethauvin I have some problems with the last of them, at least when it comes to the #Linux #kernel: https://hachyderm.io/@kernellogger/116374083334503805
Wondering if there are other projects out there where it might be similar for the same or other reasons…
I liked "The #Git Commands I Run Before Reading Any Code" post[1], but during the part that contains "Reverts every couple of weeks means the team doesn’t trust its deploy process. They’re evidence of a deeper issue: […]" something in me yelled: "This is more nuanced, and people will be drawing the wrong conclusions if they believe this blindly".
Because for the #Linux #kernel reverts often are a good thing for two entangled reasons:
* No "deploy process" can prevent all bugs, so some will only be found in the wild. This, sadly, is especially true for the #LinuxKernel, as its mostly drivers which are impossible to test properly in a deploy process; the hardware they support furthermore is messy and full of hidden bugs innocent changes can suddenly expose.
* A quick revert can be the fastest way to ensure that mainline usually remains usable and is tested by people, as "fixing a bug through a follow-up commit" often takes more time than "reverting and reapplying later with the bug fixed"[2].
[1] From Alex Piechowski: https://piechowski.io/post/git-commands-before-reading-code/
[2] Can also be better in case people have to use "git bisect" later for other reasons, as the bug then won't interfere while in the range where it's not yet resolved.

The Discover app looks quite promising. However, when I click to install an app from the apps.kde.org website, it opens the Discover app but I get this error:

I am not sure how to add the KDE apps website to the Discover repositories.
Is this a common error? Or do you think it is Debian or Devuan specific error? I haven't yet tried on my Artix Linux installation, as that is currently in a different location.

"How it all began"
I saw an ad for this CD set at a very low price in a computer magazine. I decided to give it a try, enticed by the low cost and this 'alternative solution to Windows', and in late 1996 I ordered this set.
When it arrived, I was fascinated (having never used a Unix or Unix-like system before) but a bit daunted by the lack of support for the main applications I knew. A few months later, though, I decided to give it another go and from that point, I never looked back. Whether it was Linux, one of the BSDs, or something similar (but Unix or Unix-like), I was not going back to systems like Windows.
My #ThrowbackThursday today is probably one of the most significant in my computing life.

The realisation just hit me that besides my work laptop I no longer use #Windows. I switched to #Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop a while back on my PC and I don't miss it one bit.
The few PC games I play run on #Linux with #Steam just fine but I think the real eye-opener has been how effortless Linux on the desktop is these days. If my sister ever throws out her #Chromebook I will put her on a distro with #KDE.
Oh nice! The developers of Little Snitch have made a version for Linux. Like they say at the start of the post, I never found an alternative I was happy with when I switched from macOS to Linux. Although, with vastly more open-source software in my workflow it was also less necessary.
I'm at work, reading that ham's email about my QRM, on my phone.
Quickly call my spouse.
"Are you working in the home office? Ok. Is Kitty Fooble is next to you? Is he sitting on my laptop keyboard? Ah-ha! That's it!"
Then I explained.
"OMG! My fault, I left laptop keyboard exposed. Our cat is butt-typing the ionosphere via JS8! Hams everywhere complaining! Flip power switch! Unplug this and that!"

Separate from, but related to, my previous question ...
My work machine boots into Ubuntu. I'm trying to get to the BIOS to ask it to try first booting from the USB, but I can't work out how to get to the BIOS.
I've tried various keys while powering on ... ESC, F1, F2, DEL ...
What do you need to know to help me work it out?
I'm going to bed now, but I'll be back in about 9 hours. Let me know how stupid I've been, and what I should be doing.
Or alternatively, let me know what info you need to be able to help me.
Thanks in advance ... and good night.
Ah.
Looking to install Linux Mint Cinnamon on a laptop ... but all the ISOs seem to be 64 bit.
The machine is 32 bit.
So ... suggestions?
wayback is a stub Wayland compositor that hosts a rootful Xwayland server, letting you run your full X11 setup unchanged on top of Wayland. Built from source, wrote a small launch script and dwm came up fine with st.
Still experimental and needs some tweaking but the core concept works — keep your dwm, st and all your suckless tools, just drop Xorg underneath.
If you're a minimalist X11 user not ready to jump to a Wayland WM, keep an eye on this project!

My idea was to turn them into retro gaming systems with Batocera Linux, as the iMac screen is good and they have a full size SD card slot.
Sound would definitely have to work for that application.
Welp, jumped through the BIOS hoops and able to boot and install Linux on the cheap Windows 11 Acer laptop I got a couple years ago and haven't used 30 hours because I hate Windows 11.
Now, do I buy a separate drive to slide in and put the Windows 11 drive in a drawer or format the one that came in it... 🤓 #Windows11 #Linux

😂 A friend of mine (who's been consulting for way longer than me) got hit with a holy-trinity of demands from a potential client this week.
1. They approached her for a website for their business.
2. They won't do down-payments (start for free).
3. They want complete copyright ownership of code from day one and she works on their org's github pushing code (IP ownership before payment).
4. They quoted her last year's currency conversion rates when she said USD.
5. They won't allow her to showcase the final public facing website on her portfolio.
6. No deemed acceptance clause.
That's got to be a record right? 😭
