KDE is crap

Is it just me or is KDE the most buggy desktop environment out there. Everytime I try installing KDE plasma in a virtual machine. VMware Tools, Open VM Tools, VirtualBox Guest Additions and nothing else works.

KDE looks great but is disfunctional as hell.

That's not all. Plasma constantly crashes. Windows (graphically) sometimes glitch up (that one could be due to it running in a VM though)

Having issues downloading for browser. Secure Connection failed

I recently downloaded a fresh install of Linux Mint 19.3 cinnamon and have been tailoring it to me taste. I am trying to download the tor browser but every time I access the website through Firefox or Chromium I get “secure connection failed error code: ssl error ex record too long” I’ve tried some fixes some people have recommended and still get the same problem. If anyone find or knows of anything that can help out I really appreciate it.

plank dock in openbox and lxde missing features

hey guys, newbie issue with plank. I am missing transparency and icon zoom in openbox and lxde, while in xfce it acts much better.

Am I missing something in openbox or is it simply not supported that much like more robust DE and WM ?

Noob question about dsd audio files in li ux

Hi,

my aim is to build up a linux computer as an audio player for my audio files that are stored on a QNAP NAS. I bought myself a used Lenovo Thinkpad and managed to install Linux Mint onto it. I will use JRiver's Media Center to play my music files. This works fine so far for my HighRes Flac files. The one thing that doesn't work "out of the box", is playing DSD files and I wonder if there is need of some codec files to support DSD files. Maybe some of you can help me out here. Or is there a Linux system out there that is "better" for streaming and playing audio files from a NAS into a DAC via USB? The JRiver Media Center isn't tested for many distributions though and I would like to stick to it.
Thanks for any tipps, as I am quite new to Linux and wouldn't know where to search and look!

What are some useful ls* commands

I'm pretty new to linux, but I've found that the ls* tools (e.g., lsblk, lsusb, lspci, lscpu, lsof, etc.) are supremely useful. It seems like every day I watch some tutorial and learn about another one I hadn't heard of before (just learned about lstopo from a Level1Techs video).

Is there a list somewhere of all the ls* commands? What are some other ones that you know about?

Barrier Download Link?

I have been looking at alternatives to synergy where I can use one keyboard and one mouse and control 2 different computers with two different operating systems, windows and Linux. I’ve looked at some alternatives and the only one I can find is barrier, but I can’t find any download links. Does anyone know where I can find some download links for windows and Linux?

Using Linux Mint Mate

I am a noobie at using Linux. I’ve never done it before and I’ve only heard of using virtual machines and usbs to boot Linux. I know that a disadvantage of USB is that everything that I’ve done will go away after I stop running. Is there any other way of using Linux that makes it local to my computer, just like the current windows OS?
