What is the status of AMD integer scaling on Linux? I wonder when can we expect it to land in Kernel.

ElementaryOS Network Bridge foro KVM

Hi All.

I'm using a new install of ElementaryOS and want to use KVM for a home lab. Only problem is networking and configuring a bridge.

My network connection works fine, until I set the bridge in /etc/network/interfaces like so:

\#interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and if down(8)

auto lo

iface lo inet loopback

auto br0

iface br0 inet static

address [192.168.1.12](https://192.168.1.12)

netmask [255.255.255.0](https://255.255.255.0)

network [192.168.1.0](https://192.168.1.0)

broadcast [192.168.1.255](https://192.168.1.255)

gateway [192.168.1.1](https://192.168.1.1)

dns-nameservers [192.168.1.1](https://192.168.1.1)

bridge\_ports enp4s0

bridge\_stp off

bridge\_maxwait 0

As soon as I save and restart network manager the network disconnects and doesn't come back.

What am I doing wrong?

​

Thanks in advance

[Recommendations] Movies, Documentaries, Speeches about FOSS

I watched Revolution OS (2001), it's totally worth it especially the last bit of Richard Stallman

"**The** **whole** **GNU** **project** **is** a **really** **one** **big** **hack**. It's **one** **big** **act** **of** **subversive** **playful** **cleverness**, **to** **change** society for the better, because I'm only interested in changing it for the better, but in a clever way."

Please feel free to share anything about FOSS which inspired, I really wanted to discover more. Long live FOSS!

Which book is best for command line and shell noscripting?

I've been confused which one to read “The Linux Command Line, 2nd edition” for William Shotts or “Linux Command Line and Shell Scripting Bible, 3rd edition” for Richard Blum, so I would be grateful if anyone can help which one to read or if there is a better one.

P.S.

I have just finished “How Does Linux Work?” for Brian Ward

OTPClient v2.0.0 is out!

After quite some development, OTPClient 2.0.0 has been released and is ready for you to use it :D

Changes compared to v1.5:

* add plain text import/export for andOTP
* add lock and auto-lock feature
* add CLI (currently supports list and show commands)
* support import/export of encrypted andOTP backups generated with version >=0.6.3
* this means that **from now on only versions 0.6.3 and greater** of andOTP will be supported for importing and exporting encrypted backups
* main view can now be sorted by account and/or issuer by just clicking on the column header
* QR code can now be added from clipboard too (supports both gnome and kde)

If you have any doubts, remember to read the wiki: [https://github.com/paolostivanin/OTPClient/wiki](https://github.com/paolostivanin/OTPClient/wiki)

And here the release page: [https://github.com/paolostivanin/OTPClient/releases/tag/v2.0.0](https://github.com/paolostivanin/OTPClient/releases/tag/v2.0.0)

openSUSE already has the update in the repo and the flatpak version will be updated in the next hours.

Enjoy it and, as always, remember to open an issue on github in case you should face problems or have questions or whatever :)
