It has been a while since I updated my wife's #linux laptop. Good day to install the latest #mxlinux.

Okay, I have never in all my years seen a piece of consumer hardware that advertised #Linux support on the front of the box. Yes, I've seen it in small text on the back or side of the box, or in the instruction manual, or somewhere else out of the way, but this is unambiguously "we support linux!". Wild.

I think, I am done with distro-hopping. From now on, I’ll be distro-bopping. #linux

A small tweak for the Windows 11 box. I don't want to click start and then the power option and then shutdown. I want something similar to my #linux machines.
I created a shortcut and made a shortcut on the taskbar. Simple icon change too.
Command was shutdown /s /t 0. That does an immediate shutdown. Not the prettiest, but it works.

I was watching a game via streaming on my browser, and my CPU was running at 78–80 °C (it's an old laptop).
If you inspect the page in Firefox and select the "Network" tab, you can find the video's URL. All you have to do is open that URL in mpv, and your computer will run much more smoothly and, in my case, with a CPU temperature 12 degrees lower.

So you read about #CopyFail, and are like… owww, shit. But then you see that it was responsibly disclosed after being fixed in main, we had releases since, they went stable in #Gentoo (over other #security fixes), so we should be good, right?
Except that it turns out that after it has been fixed in mainline, nobody bothered actually backporting the fix to all the LTS branches. And it doesn't apply cleanly (#Gentoo #Linux

I'll be getting my main laptop back soon, on which—for reasons that aren't relevant here—I've had to temporarily install Windows.
Now I'm faced with the dilemma of choosing a distro. Since my ThinkPad runs Arch Linux, I'm wondering if it's time to reinstall Fedora.
What I do know for sure is that it's time to give Wayland and Hyprland a try, after years of using i3wm.

What are #linux users using instead of #neofetch these days? Or do people overall still prefer that 5 year old utility? Only asking since my system has neofetch but I'm wondering if I should consider something different.

Does someone have any pointers for a crashing system?
I suspect that it is related to the GPU, especially under heavy load.
It is an Intel Xe GPU in a Dell Latitude 7450 notebook.
Unfortunately nothing shows up in the journal.
I have to wait for the diagnostic LED code again. Looking at the manual, it seems I remembered it wrong.

LinuxBoot is the concept of using a Linux kernel and initramfs as a bootloader. The linuxboot repository contains a build system implementing LinuxBoot primarily targeting servers and PCs, which started as NERF in January 2017 at Google. Why? Improves boot reliability by replacing lightly-tested firmware drivers with hardened Linux drivers. Improves boot time by removing unnecessary code. Typically makes boot 20 times faster. Allows customization of the initrd runtime to support site-specific…

Remedy: I switched to `lightdm`, which has `dm-tool` (which lets you switch to the greeter).

Ich nutze nun Linux seit 2 jahren richtig intensiv und hab mich auf Linux Mint festgelegt. Läuft auch alles soweit super, ok bis auf ein paar Probleme, die aber nicht mit Linux Mint selbst zutun haben.
Nur eine kleine Sache, wo ich echt Probleme hab, das ist Desktopverknüpfungen bei Programmen, k.a was ich da falsch mache. Wenn ich eine normale verknüpftung mach, die aus dem Dateimanager erstelle, dann funtzt das nicht.

Speaking of which: I’ve been back on Debian for a few days now. In the meantime, there have been a few updates—maybe they fixed the keyboard issue? I don’t know. But in any case, it’s working fine now without any problems or keys getting stuck.

RE: #Linux machine to #Kubuntu

If it wasn't enough that we have to keep building new kernels every day and backport vulnerability fixes to older LTS branches, now we also have to deal with upstream doing random backports that are completely broken and never bothering to actually even check if they build.

I've finally finished pushing the latest update for #Gentoo Distribution Kernels, and requested their stabilization. This includes upstream releases 7.0.9, 6.18.32, 6.12.90 and 6.6.140; and Gentoo patch bumps 6.1.173_p1, 5.15.207_p1 and 5.10.256_p1.
All of these contain the v5 #Fragnesia patch. And yes, while the exploit is in the wild, upstream still hasn't merged a fix to the mainline kernel, let alone all the LTS branches. Of course, the patch keeps covering more holes, but it would really be preferable to do that as a followup instead of leaving people vulnerable and forcing us to keep rebasing it.
They also include a few reverts in 6.18 and 6.6 for broken PowerPC backports that upstream didn't apparently test. 🤷
We're doing our best, but I'd still recommend running the latest 7.0.x kernel, or LTS 6.18.x, because upstream is far from reliable with the backports.
