Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    I've also got the Linux Basics for Hackers book but it's at home while I'm on vacation.

    I'm just really happy rn yall :) this install took some work, SecureBoot kept getting in the way and I'm not the most savvy person so there was a lot of Googling and trial and error in the way of getting here.

    I love how under most Linux threads there is war and anarchie and many know-it-all, but under this? A New Penguin? Lets Embrace him in the best Community there is.

    Nice Work Man

    Different distros deal with securebot differently. If you try OpenSUSE, secureboot works: you will be asked to enroll your keys after the install reboot. And you will see the ooensuse-secureboot entry in the UEFI boot order list.

    I went back and forth for about six years.

    Then I began using Linux on a home NAS, then using the host GPU for virtualization, then proton... and when proton hit, that was basically.

    Yep! Packing my shit! We're going to penguin land!

    entirity? how? doesn't it run at all?

    [–] kekmacska@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

    only as live system, with limited capabilities. i only run linux in virtual machine for now. don't buy msi gamer laptops

    I've used Linux for 20 years and never picked up a book on it. Not that there's anything wrong with the books, but let's not give the impression that it's necessary.
