Bootc and OSTree: modernizing Linux system deployment

Bootc and OSTree represent a new way of thinking about Linux system deployment and management. Building on container and versioning concepts, they offer robust and modern solutions to meet the current needs of administrators and developers.

Kernel programming lore

Orientating myself in the kernel lore

I haven't looked at the linux kernel source in too long a time. I just grabbed a section that was on top and started reading and learning

Source code is nice to read IMHO

TIL about adw-gtk3 an unofficial GTK3 port of libadwaita.

It's a theme usuable for many DE and can make your GIMP look very nice too

To this day, the personal server that I use and depend on in my daily life runs a LAMP stack on #Fedora #Linux from primarily secondhand hardware. No Kubernetes, Ansible, etc, etc. Just old school bash automations via cron, and it's been going for well over a decade now like that. I manually upgrade the Fedora version twice a year, which usually requires me running two commands. Most everything else is automated with plain old bash.

GIMP uses GEGL. I will briefly quote; I want you to seek GEGL data yourself at their site. It's a wonderful architecture

Quote

GEGL (Generic Graphics Library) is a data flow based image processing framework, providing floating point processing and non-destructive image processing capabilities to GNU Image Manipulation Program and other projects (imgflo, GNOME Photos, iconographer, …)

GIMP site also has interviews with the programmers. Go and seek

Keyboard shortcuts power in UI control

I've had consistent good keyboard experiences with keyboard shortcuts in both closed source and Open Source programs
The program suite by AutoDesk ACAD which I know from version 10.0, was run on a single tasking 286 CPU with a seperate 287 math coprocessor installed. That computer was in URC, the computer lab of my University in SR/SA.
In that period of multitasking dark ages on x86 not even the coprocessor could be integrated on the CPU die. Of course my Amiga multitasked all it's programs in the same period, but that's for another toot ;)
ACAD10 and others have a set of nice functions which I still know by heart, because I can make nice 3D images with them

Sequence

• o (ortho)
• s (snap)
• l (line) from point to point indicated by digitizer
• layer (define layers and colours for objects)
• a (arc from {end of} axis to nice random point)
• the object snap function is at work here
• create different arcs in different layers
• setvar
• SURFTAB1 (value as large as the math coprocessor can handle)
• SURFTAB2 (same as above)
• revsurf (revolution of surfaces) rotate the arcs around axis
• a gorgeous multilayered / multi coloured object is created
• the SURFTAB valuse will be important in the next step
• shade
• autoshade() creates a magnifique shaded object within a number of seconds to a minute

The 3D objects look gorgeous!

I can create them in seconds on simple hardware, and can play by making them for hours

GIMP v3.04

It was this early morning, when I tried to fire up GIMP, I noticed that I had forgotten to install this magnificent gfx tool kit.

I ran apt install gimp immediately

I've been using GIMP ever since it came out, decades ago (spawn 1995). Even though the UI was totally different from what I was used to, adaptation was fast and my fluency in use of GIMP increased fast. I like working in GIMP

The GIMP is 31 years old

Quote

In 1995, Spencer Kimball and Peter Mattis began developing GIMP as a semester project at University of California, Berkeley for the eXperimental Computing Facility.[8] The software was originally named the General Image Manipulation Program

GIMP v0.54 was first released in 1996

Over the decades I've seen a lot of users emitting futile complaints about the GUI, the use of many windows / viewports, while I can easily transition from closed source software on client's machines, to the GIMP, just by switching the mindset regarding the UI. The logic behind UI decisions is easily traceable.

GIMP has so many functions, I know of nobody who knows how to use all of them.

You should learn what you need to do, get fluent into those tasks, and learn more when you need more. This mind set also works in VIM, which has a massive ammount of functions and commands to make not only your programming in different languages more pleasant, it also has subtle assist functions which makes your source entries even more enjoyable.

GIMP always gives me consistent performance and I can rely on the keyboard shortcuts without having to use the mouse to select functions brushes, et all.
GIMP is for me a must have in my photo correction work flow. I've never relied on closed source software for those tasks, GIMP always has similar functions, many working even more efficient with your computer's CPU / GPU resources.

For the Love of GIMP

next section moved to seperate toot

Note:
I've always known that Open Source programs can be trusted better than closed source equivalents, something you all know when it comes down to the big photo manupilation suite, which enshittifies everything for its paying users.

GIMP shall always have its users back

You can trust GIMP

Mit dem aktuellen Fedora Kernel 6.18.13-200.fc43 gibt es momentan Ärger mit dem USB-Subsystem: Nach ein paar Minuten verliert der Thinkpad T14s G1 den Kontakt zu seiner Dockingstation, die per USB angeschlossen ist, was bei mir externe Tastatur, Maus und Netzwerk betrifft 😕

Der Kernel-Boot-Parameter "usbcore.autosuspend=-1" scheint aber Abhilfe zu schaffen.

They can make Microsoft implement it, they can make Apple implement it, but the very nature of Linux (being open source) makes it impossible to force onto #Linux.

If you haven't already it may be time to take #tux the Linux mascot for a spin.

If anyone reading this is interested in switching to Linux and needs help from someone who did it 25 years ago, just let me know... and if you are in #Calgary I'll even help in person.

For anybody wondering why I prefer #NetBSD over #Linux, compare the code for a small tool like whois(1):

NetBSD:
https://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/usr.bin/whois/whois.c?annotate=HEAD

372 lines, easy to read

Linux:
https://github.com/rfc1036/whois/blob/next/whois.c

1617 lines in the main program; unchecked malloc(3), misc buffer overflow opportunities, magic numbers, "/* This function has multiple memory leaks.*/", mixed spaces and tabs, another 2K of glue code, ...

KISS, man, KISS.

I got Mint reinstalled.

Installed Steam after I got Vivaldi browser up and running and synced.

And, kids....if you want to install Steam in Mint or Ubuntu, don't use the software manager. Open a command prompt and use the following:

sudo apt install steam-installer

From the Reddit comment I found on this:

"steam-installer is a meta package (collection of packages) that includes a handful of recommended dependencies in an Ubuntu/Mint environment.

It includes the steam-installer script that is responsible for downloading the latest steam client on first execution and setup up the environment, steam-libs, steam-libs-i386, debconf, lsof, and zenity (a tool for displaying graphical dialog boxes from shell scripts), and any dependencies required for those packages (like steam-devices for example). It basically does everything needed and recommended for Steam to work except add the i386 architecture, which Mint already has enabled."

My first test of Steam, post-install, was to install Skyrim. It ran BEAUTIFULLY in high graphics mode.

Next up, Elder Scrolls Online..which has been downloading FOREVER...

On another note, this has me wanting to do more stuff in command line. 😁 ⌨️

La commande magique ? La voilà : $ grep -a -C 2000 "global_objects\.add" /dev/sda2 | tee recovered_data Oui, c'est juste grep. La magie de Gnunux : pas besoin d'installer un logiciel de récupération de données complexe et chiant à utiliser, c'est juste une bête commande disponible partout. Explications : grep, vous connaissez sans doute, ça va tout simplement chercher une chaîne de caractères dans un fichier, et vous la renvoyer avec plus ou moins de lignes de contexte ; -a est une option qui signifie qu'on veut traiter les fichiers binaires « comme si » c'était des fichiers textes : normalement la commande ne marche que sur du texte, mais si vous voulez chercher une chaîne de caractère dans les octets qui composent une image JPG, libre à vous ; -C 2000, « C » pour contexte : si la chaîne de caractères est trouvée, je veux que grep me renvoie les 2000 lignes qui « entourent » la ligne où la chaîne apparaît. Comme mon script faisait dans les 1000 lignes, j'ai tapé large. Vous pouvez aussi jouer avec -B (pour before) et -A (pour after) pour avoir un contexte non-symmétrique ; "global_objects\.add" : une chaîne de caractères dont je me rappelais qu'elle était présente dans le script en question. Si vous avez perdu un texte, essayez de vous rappeler d'un titre ou d'une séquence de mots spécifique. Pour ma part, je me souvenais qu'à un moment, je remplissais un set nommé global_objects ; /dev/sda2 : le truc magique, c'est que grep peut tourner sur une part

I thought it would be easier to have #Linux up and running on my daughter’s #Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 laptop.
#Ubuntu and #LinuxMint work perfectly out of the box. Even the touch screen! But Ubuntu bricks completely after a couple of days of connecting and disconnecting an external display. And Mint crashes on every display manipulation, like changing the resolution or connecting an external one.

I’ll surely jump into this hole of troubleshooting. There’s no way I’ll bring back #Windows on it.

So I tried a lot of solutions from various forums. I also tried different window managers, graphic managers, drivers, desktop managers, and whatever managers there are in #Linux.

#Mint, #Ubuntu and #Fedora has the same issues. Crash on HDMI connected and on waking from sleep. The root cause is the same, I assume.

Then I installed #Debian. Guess what? Everything works just fine. Sleep, awake, external displays...

I installed both #Gnome and #KDE for my daughter to choose.

Observation. Although it wasn't the case with older versions of #Debian, or perhaps older versions of #XZ, creating archives with xz on Debian, whether thru tar or xz directly, now uses all CPU cores instead of just one like it did before.

​Eine Aufnahme eines schwarzen Lenovo ThinkPad Laptops, der aufgeklappt auf einem hellen Holztisch steht. ​Bildschirm: Das Display zeigt den Installationsbildschirm für das Linux-Betriebssystem Pop!_OS 24.04 LTS. In der Mitte ist ein Menü geöffnet, in dem der Nutzer aufgefordert wird, eine Sprache auszuwählen („Select a Language“), wobei „English“ aktuell markiert ist. Links im Installationsfenster ist ein kleines Roboter-Maskottchen zu sehen. Am unteren Bildschirmrand befindet sich ein Dock mit verschiedenen App-Icons. ​Hardware: An der linken Seite des Geräts ist ein weißer USB-Stick (mit einem Adapter) angeschlossen, der offensichtlich als Installationsmedium dient. Die Tastatur hat neben dem klassischen roten TrackPoint in der Mitte zweisprachig bedruckte Tasten (Englisch und Arabisch). Auf der linken Handballenauflage klebt ein Badge für einen AMD Ryzen 7 PRO Prozessor.

Der Digitale Exitus: Warum Europa jetzt die Ketten sprengen muss

Ein Manifest für die Souveränität

Wir stehen am Abgrund einer technologischen Leibeigenschaft. Während wir uns einbilden, in einer freien Demokratie zu leben, haben wir die Schlüssel zu unserem Haus, unseren Gedanken und unserer Wirtschaft längst an eine Handvoll Milliardäre im Silicon Valley übergeben. Wir sind keine Nutzer mehr. Wir sind Datensätze. Wir sind digitale Leibeigene in einem feudalen System, das keine Grenzen kennt und keine Moral. Es ist Zeit, die rosarote Brille abzusetzen. Es ist Zeit, das Betriebssystem unserer Gesellschaft neu zu installieren. [Mehr lesen...]

Standalone builds are compiled versions you can run without installing any dependencies (neither #Python). No more venv, pip install etc.

Rivalcfg is now simpler to use than ever! 😁

Good news! Finally heard back from the dealer about my broken audio interface today. They are sending me a new one via overnight shipping.

I've had two other #Focusrite interfaces for years without problems so I'm a little surprised this one was so problematic.

Originally, I was planning on selling my current one (Scarlett 18i20 2nd gen) but since there is a #Linux driver available, I am really curious to see how well it performs. Linux recognizes my first gen Scarlett 2i4 natively with #ALSA. #FreeBSD recognizes it but I am not able to get meaningful sound out of it, just some weird clicks and pops. Not sure what the issue is because it's class compliant.

Friendly heads up: If you do come across a first gen 2i4, highly recommended you scoop it up. Being USB-powered, small, and having excellent components, it's an inexpensive way to dramatically increase audio quality on your Linux box.

@rl_dane Unfortunately you are correct. #UserInterface Design, of course, isn't limited to #computers. There aren't too many new #vehicles these days that do *not* have a #touchscreen #infotainment #center. They are a distraction.

<tangent>
Same goes for #synthesizers. Many #digital #synths have gorgeous touchscreens but few #tactile #controls. Menu diving has always been an issue on these devices but it's definitely worsened. A lot of my time architecting new sounds is spend navigating an OS with my fingertips.

On the flip side, these instruments are ridiculously powerful. Multiple SoCs and running #Linux!
</tangent>

The customer requested specifically Linux Mint 21.3, not the latest Linux Mint. He said that he's using that on another computer and wants to stay on that version for a while.

Anybody heard of that before?

I think he mentioned that he's seen it recommended on forums to stay on that version, but I haven't asked him details or reasons yet.

Looking to see if QubesOS will install nicely on my XPS 13. For more info on what QubesOS is, check it out here: https://doc.qubes-os.org/en/latest/introduction/intro.html

There are reports that it kinda works on my device, and it would be really awesome if it did, as I could then use my laptop as a daily driver again.

If not, then I get to pick a Linux distro to put on it, and then go from there. Once I've got a good, functional device, I can look to rebuilding my office PC with qubes and a small windows partition for games.

For now: Backups.

I gotta make sure the laptop is backed up correctly before nuking. Ain't no way I'm getting burned this time!

#Mastodon tip: There is a way to use only part of a word as a hashtag!

For example, you might want to say the word “toots”, but use the hashtag “toot”.

To do this, place a U+2060 WORD JOINER before the “s” in “toots”. Example: #toot⁠s.

If you're using #X11 or #Wayland (i.e. #Linux or #BSD desktop), you can add the following line to ~/.XCompose to give yourself a keyboard shortcut:

<Multi_key> <w> <j> : "⁠" U2060 # WORD JOINER

Then just type Compose, then W, then J.

""[…] We have a new major number purely because I'm easily confused and not good with big numbers.

We haven't done releases based on features (or on "stable vs unstable") for a long long time now. So that new major number does *not* mean that we have some big new exciting feature, or that we're somehow leaving old interfaces behind. It's the usual "solid progress" marker, nothing more.

With our normal release schedule of 5-6 releases per year and my antipathy to big version numbers, you should basically expect us to bump the major number roughly every 3.5 years.

And yeah, I don't have a solid plan for when the major number itself gets big. But doing the math - by that time, I expect that we'll have somebody more competent in charge who isn't afraid of numbers past the teens. So I'm not going to worry about it. […]

Cette décision, portée par le ministère danois des Affaires numériques, s'inscrit dans une volonté de souveraineté numérique, de réduction des coûts et d'indépendance technologique.

Y'know what? As an #opensource #advocate and #tech enthusiast, it's genuinely awesome to see increased mainstream coverage of #Linux and #FreeBSD. Unfortunately, a lot of these articles are riddled with mistakes, misinformation, clickbait, and overall low quality. A few minutes ago, while catching up on tech news I came across one #ZDNet author's frequent posts on Linux and FreeBSD.

To emphasize my point, I am only going to focus on one article titled, "After decades on Linux, FreeBSD finally gave me a reason to switch operating systems."

The following passages stuck out like sore thumb:

1.) "FreeBSD is more challenging than Linux."

-But is it really? Subjective, particularly if coming from a GUI-driven Linux distribution. Frankly I find FreeBSD easier because of the excellent documentation and coherent design.

2.) "FreeBSD is Unix-like" but further down he states, "Essentially, FreeBSD is Unix, where Linux is based on Unix."

-Contradictory, incorrect, and confusing for newcomers. FreeBSD is Unix. Linux (neither the kernel nor OS) is based on Unix.

3.) "Think of FreeBSD as a more challenging version of Linux. This operating system doesn't hold your hand, so you might learn a thing or two as you install it and the software you require. Even for a seasoned Linux veteran like me, FreeBSD can often be a head-scratcher."

-Challenging because it's *different than Linux*? FreeBSD doesn't hold your hand? What about #Debian, #Gentoo, #Arch, heck even #RHEL? Since the author didn't mention it, I'm going to assume he did not check the FreeBSD Handbook and his "seasoned Linux" experience has been using a Linux desktop for a couple years. Also, head-scratcher?! Being an experienced Debian user, I'd be scratching my head too if I just decided to use Gentoo on a whim. The trauma of hand-configuring the xorg.conf file was real.

Finally, contrary to the article's title, the author ended up not switching to FreeBSD.

-Clickbait.

I am all for more people exploring FreeBSD and Linux. They are great OSes but it is critical the information being reported is both accurate and consistent. For reference the article is linked below.

Linus Torvalds — Talks about AI Hype, GPU Power, and Linux’s Future

Here Linus Torvalds Speaks on a calm and relaxed energy level, on the LLM hype how it affects kernel development and open source. The mothods how recent Linux kernel hardware like GPUs and APUs from different companies like AMD has modified the Linux's kernel role.

Die viel besungene, angeblich riesige Software Biosphäre für Windows besteht in den meisten Sparten aus dem monopolistischen Branchenprimus - zugegeben, der ist oft überlegen, voller Features (von denen man aber als Konsument nur 2-3% nutzt) und für den Privateinsatz vollkommen überteuert. Und wenn überhaupt, gibt es noch genau einen schwächeren kommerzillen Mitbewerber. Andere Alternativen sind dann plattformübergreifend und opensource, zählen also eigtl. nicht.

@AlienJay Ja, mir ist es auch zu viel. Ich bin jetzt seit 10 oder was Jahren mit #SailfishOS unterwegs, immer auf subpar hardware. Nie eine akzeptable Kamera auf dem Handy, das schmerzt. Dafür #Linux, was ich nicht missen will. Das #Jolla2 sieht endlich nach einem guten Phone aus, das ist es mir dann doch wert.

The removal of TrueNAS legacy (CORE) leaves space for a tenth button.

What would you like?

The button need not be FreeBSD-specific. Discussions frequently attract users of other systems.

The sidebar of r/freebsd is crowded (very tall), and this cluster of buttons is relatively far down, so I doubt that it will gain much attention. Still, cafe community thoughts are welcome.

Three screenshots:

1. an overview of <https://www.reddit.com/r/freebsd/top/?sort=top&t=day> before removal of the TrueNAS button

2. the entire sidebar as represented at <https://sh.reddit.com/r/freebsd/about/>

3. focus on the other sub shortlist, and the other shortlist, within the sidebar.

Thanks.

Building Linux kernel 6.19.3 on Slackware using Patrick's official SlackBuilds, starting from my 6.18.13 config as a base.

-> 6.19 brings some nice ext4 improvements that caught my attention:

• Support for block sizes larger than page size (can improve buffered write performance in some workloads)
• Faster online defragmentation using folios instead of legacy buffer heads
• Smarter POSIX ACL caching, avoiding redundant permission checks on files without ACLs

Let's see how it goes! 🤞

What was your first Linux distro, and why did you pick it?

For me it was Fedora. I knew basically nothing about Linux at the time, but the logo just clicked 😁 It also felt more up to date and actively worked on, so I figured it was a good place to start.

What about you? 🙄

Mein Blog dasnetzundich.de ist kein Konkurrenzprojekt zu den großen Tech-Seiten – sondern einfach mein (und hoffentlich bald unser) digitales Wohnzimmer sein, in dem wir über IT, KI, Selbsthosting und den ganzen anderen Kram quatschen, der uns begeistert.
Pro Woche 2, 3 Artikel reicht erst einmal. Den Blog selber gibt es seit 2015. Hab bisher alles allein geschrieben.

Was ich suche:

- Autor:innen, die ab und zu Lust haben, was beizutragen (kein Stress, kein „Du musst jetzt jede Woche liefern!“).

- Themen? Alles, was euch bewegt: Linux-Tipps, KI-Experimente, Hardware-Basteleien, „Warum macht mein Server DAS?“-Geschichten oder einfach nur persönliche Erfahrungen aus der digitalen Welt.

- Keine Profis nötig! Hauptsache, du hast Bock, dein Wissen zu teilen – ob für Laien oder Fortgeschrittene.

Einfach melden unter:

- Per Matrix (#dasnetzundich:matrix.org)
- Per Mail
- Per PN hier

Der Blog soll und wird ein Hobby bleiben, dafür liebe ich meinen eigentlichen Beruf zu sehr. Mal sehen was kommt.

Der Blog selber ist im Fediverse vertreten @lars@dasnetzundich.de

"This Week in Plasma" brings the news that...

Plasma 6.6 is here (duh!), we fixed those widgets the new release broke 😬, we made the close buttons on the "Thumbnails" task switcher more legible, and the “Terminate this frozen window” dialog got a spinner, among many more tasty things.

The image shows Plasma showing the Thumbnails task switcher and how the close button on the active app is more prominent than in prior versions.

Here is this week's #Linux and #OpenSource news video!

In this one, we have #GNOME 50 getting a massive beta, more progress on GNOME OS, the release of #KDE Plasma 6.6, and KDE debunking some FUD around their use of SystemD, the EU taking aim at infinite scrolling, and a lot more!

A pixelated character resembling Kirby is displayed with the quote: Steady movement is more important than speed, much of the time.

A terminal window displays a generated random cow ASCII art and a the quote: I used to live in a house by the freeway. When I went anywhere, I had to be going 65 MPH by the end of my driveway. I replaced the headlights in my car with strobe lights. Now it looks like I'm the only one moving. I was pulled over for speeding today. The officer said, "Don't you know the speed limit is 55 miles an hour?" And I said, "Yes, but I wasn't going to be out that long." I put a new engine in my car, but didn't take the old one out. Now my car goes 500 miles an hour. -- Steven Wright
