Can't install manjaro kde plasma, just keeps looping install.

im running kde plasma in virtualbox on an acer aspire 5, and when i install it, it reboots and starts the installation process again. I tried rebooting with proprietary drivers and nothing, still on the user used for install.

I decided to unbox and install a copy of Debian 2.1 from 1999, and let's just say that Linux has come a long way, and VA Linux's box sets were not what I want to call good. I almost dread to know what the Loki Games Myth II demo disk will require to run ...

PSA: Vanilla Chromium ending some of Google's API access such as syncing and spelling check starting on March 15, 2021 - This will effect the chromium-browser package in many repos.

https://blog.chromium.org/2021/01/limiting-private-api-availability-in.html

Anyone like me who uses the chromium-browser package from your distro and relies on syncing to normal Google Chrome may want to consider moving to the full Google Chrome, or switching to another browser such as Firefox or Edge with their own Sync Support.

why is there so much hate on ubuntu?

I have no idea why is there so much hate on ubuntu. but I have seen many comments on the os saying that is bad or that this os is way better than ubuntu. why? is there like some evil back story behind the os like ubuntu betrayed all of the linux users all around the world or something? the most common arguments are them saying that linux mint is better or try something else rather than ubuntu? ive been a windows user for 4 years but when i switched to ubuntu it was so easy to understand. its a good os but i need an answer on why this is happening

I made an installer for Artix Linux

Hi everyone! I made a little project. I called it Startix and it is an installer for Artix Linux. At this point it works and probably I will develop it further more. Tho I don't promise that this will become a big thing. This is actually my first real project and I just don't know how things will go. You can try it out and tell me for every problems you will face. I hope you like it!

Linux-ing with a 14 year old

My niece turned 14 last month and she is very keen to learn "coding" (she means using a computer, but that's her slang).

We have an old laptop at home which is struggling with Windows.
I think it would be great to show her how to install an OS, make directories and files, and maybe a couple of good games (Steam) and a bit of DosBox (Skyroads, Dangerous Dave and Jazz Jackrabbit).

I am NOT a computer scientist, but used Linux because I was too cheap to buy MS software when similar products were available for free, since I was a student until last year.

I plan to sit with her for 20 minutes everyday and learn Python together.

What resources would you recommend to help me with this task? A bit of Linux, a bit of Python? I know there are MANY tutorials out there, but anyone you would recommend?

Above all else, if I can drive the fear of the command terminal out early, I would consider it a genuine victory. Heavens know how reluctant I am to use it.

Should I dual-boot or buy a separate build for learning linux?

I have a new PC build that is running great with Windows 10.
I've always wanted to learn Linux, so I figured that this would be a good computer to do this on.

I have an additional NVMe harddrive with nothing on it installed, and I figured I could use that to run Linux. (Windows is installed on the SSD that currently holds everything).

I don't want to mess up what is already working great on my system, so I thought I'd ask here before I start the dual-boot set-up.

I could easily get a cheap rebuilt computer w/i5 from Free Geek for like $100-$150 that runs Linux, but I would prefer to use it on my machine that has AMD, Nvidia, etc...

I'm open to suggestions and advice. Cheers!

We are a small team that are here to make a change!

Hey all!

We are a new community launching our own Community-powered Enterprise Linux called "Navy Linux" with focus on minimum hardware requirements.

The focus is enterprise servers for all running CentOS 7 or up today and willing to change when the EOL hits.

&#x200B;

Currently we are in search of new contributors to our team of 51+

What we are currently in need of:

\-RPM package builders & testers

&#x200B;

The build has come a long way, we have infrastructure and first Beta release on the way!

Hope to see you on the team!
