Just to clarify. In-kernel drivers is not the same as open source firmware. Most bluetooth dongles use the in-kernel driver, but require proprietary firmware to be loaded before they work. Most of that firmware is present in the linux-firmware packages/repository, but the setup would no longer be FOSS only.

If that's the case, then you should answer the OP with how it's set up. OP is specifically asking how to do it with random drives other people hands them, not trusted drives always connected.
What is the disaster that could happen you’re referring to?
Auto mounting random USB sticks has never been wise. No telling what random malware they contain.

You shouldn't just automount external drives. That's a recipe for trouble.
What's wrong with manually mounting them? Pretty sure the desktop environments also require you to push a button (eg, select the drive in file manager) to mount external USB drives.

I can whole-heartedly recommend the Aqara Power Plugs. They are Zigbee, has energy monitoring, works flawlessly with Home Assistant via ZHA and come in US/EU/UK formats. I have about 10 of these and I have not been disappointed in the 5 years I have had them.

Windows might have locked the drive, making it read-only (hybrid power off stuff) or you might just need to mount it with rw permissions.
How did you mount it?

I sometimes see it in the CLI when running apt update/upgrade. I've just tricked my mind to look past it.

Seems it only handles "archived" games. So they need to be archived in a single .zip/rar/gzip/tar file.
Would it be able to handle .ISO files?
Answer: Yes. Found it in their documentation.

I had an experience like that. The droplet was used as a seedbox for Linux ISO torrents (truth, not a cover) and after a couple of months they contacted me, saying they where seeing abnormal activity to and from the droplet and I should investigate and take action within a week, else they would turn the droplet off.
After I explained it to them they replied that using a droplet as a seedbox was not allowed, poinnted to the relevant part of their TOS and I agreed to shut it down.
What the OP is experiencing is a poor way of doing business for them.

PATH is a shell variable that defines where stuff can be executed from without writing their absolute path.
So the export PATH command just adds the scale stuff to the path.

They tend to use different theming engines each major version, so I don't believe they are.

Gimp is likely still using gtk2, which means you need a theme that supports gtk2. That's probably old and un-maintained, since gtk2 has been End-Of-Life for a while now. gimp 3.0 is approaching though.

I don't see any errors, just warnings. And GTK is very verbose about warnings...

I host mine just like you want to do. Ghost running in a docker container on my homelab, with reverse proxy and domain pointing to it.
Haven't had any issues so far.

Pretty sure you didn't break the kernel. Just that the nvidia driver is likely still incompatible with 6.11.
Or maybe you are mixing nvidia drivers for regular linux and lts somewhere. The regular driver seems to have been rebuild for 6.11.

I've had a similar issue with most of the laptops I have owned. The battery just discharges slowly when the device is turned off.
I have no idea what causes it or if it can be fixed.

Sounds like you created a seperate partition for /var. Only way to change that is to redo your partitions or bind mount an external disk as /var.

journalctl lists PIDs, so it might have a corresponding executable name with it.

This seems to be a pretty great release. If they are to be believed: * Federated chat using Nextcloud Talk * Performance optimizations for most things * Circles enhanced to Teams with lots of new features * Assistant 2.0 brings new AI features for productivity I'm most hyped about the performance improvements. 😁

Four years since the launch of the Raspberry Pi 4, the Raspberry Pi 5 has arrived with a performance boost and house silicon that adds support for PCIe 2.0.

Hi all. Happy KDE Plasma user for a long time and I generally love the desktop experience. But I do have one small issue. At work, I have 2x 4K displays. connected through a Dock. But in Plasma it's only able to give me around 1080p resolution on both of them. In contrast, the display manager SDDM and TTY displays 4k on each fine. So am I missing a trick to get the max resolution in Plasma? My install is Arch Linux, kernel 6.4.12, Plasma 5.27, Wayland session. I did install the `displaylink` AUR package, as I thought it might be the dock limiting the video output, but it isn't as TTY and SDDM seems to display it correctly. Happy to hear any thoughts and any ideas. :) EDIT: The screens turn on and work fine with 4K resolutions in a Plasma X11 session.
My work place is a Microsoft shop through and through, so all their stuff is based in Azure, Active Directory, Outlook, O365 and Citrix. And they provide my with a Windows laptop for work, which is really great. The only issue I have with it, is the Windows part. So I took it upon myself to see if I can use a Linux install for work in a Windows environment. So I took my already installed private Linux laptop to work and it seemed to be going alright, expect that it's an old laptop at this point, so the GPU was not good enough to run the screens and the Bluetooth version was to old for the peripherals. So this weekend I took the plunge. I cloned the Windows drive with CloneZilla (in case of emergency, you know) and installed Arch Linux on my work laptop as the only OS. And so far, everything has worked. Except for 1 small detail that I totally forgot about! Printing. Specifically label printing, as we do ship some stuff around the country. The printer in question is a Zebra label printer G420-something and is set up on the internet Windows network at work. I've been at work all day and I haven't been able to setup this printer at all. This is mostly a rant and acknowledgement that running Linux in a Windows work environment is possible, but it's also a small whimper for help to see if anyone has managed to be able to connect to a network Windows printer. I've setup a default Samba and Avahi system, but it won't "probe" for the printer. I don't know the exact name/hostname/IP of the printer either.

tværpostet fra: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/3076577 > I posted [the other day](https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/2896209) that you can clean up your object storage from CSAM using my AI-based tool. Many people expressed the wish to use it on their local file storage-based pict-rs. So I've just extended its functionality to allow exactly that. > > The new `lemmy_safety_local_storage.py` will go through your pict-rs volume in the filesystem and scan each image for CSAM, and delete it. The requirements are > > * A linux account with read-write access to the volume files > * A private key authentication for that account > > As my main instance is using object storage, my testing is limited to my dev instance, and there it all looks OK to me. But do run it with `--dry_run` if you're worried. You can delete `lemmy_safety.db` and rerun to enforce the delete after (method to utilize the --dry_run results coming soon) > > PS: if you were using the object storage cleanup, that script has been renamed to `lemmy_safety_object_storage.py`
