Are there any up to date hardware monitoring softwares like Cpu-Zv, Gpu-Z or Hwinfo64 for Linux ? Desperately nzed help.

EDIT : Probably didn't make it clear I would like a soft with a gui.

I've tried all I could find. Cpu-G, I-Nex, other shady softwares. Everything has something that makes them unusable.



Cpu-G : is installable from ubuntu softwares but doesn't work at all. No gui, nothing shows up even if I see it in activity monitor taking up a load of resources. Then ir crashes.

I-Nex : I've tried any PPA I could find, download, dozens of links expmaining the set up. There are all very old and I"m pretty sure this software is not supported anymore since 2017.

I've really went far in research but found nothing. I don't know what to do anymore and I find impossible to believe there are no 2019 up to date software for that on Linux. And that's why I'm coming to you now as a last resort.

I think the actual reason is because every people wanting that is skilled enough to do it in command line, but I'm not yet, and this still would be pretty useful as a background task in gui for quick checked when running lengthy and intense computations (deep learning).

What I would love is like a small add-on that would enable displaying on the top bar (like some add-on do for activity monitor) as many hardware info as possible like temps, clockage for each components, RPM for fans, etc....

Thanks a lot in advance.

Is Kdenlive really the best there is?

I'm running Debian 9 stable and I'm looking for a video editor with the same (more-or-less) abilities as Sony Vegas Pro, which I used to use when I was on Windows.

People seem to praise Kdenlive for how amazing it is, but I've had nothing but problems. It crashes whenever I try to use one of its 'advanced' features. The kicker: I have 20 GB of RAM. Plus the video cropping in Kdenlive is buggy as all hell.

Da Vinci doesn't like my Intel graphics card/driver, and Lightworks doesn't like Debian 9. Do I really need a whole new OS for this?

Stable Distro(s) With AMD Zen Architecture

Are there any stable distros for the AMD Zen arch? I have been through Mint, Clear, and openSuse Tumbleweed so far and even w/the grub cmd line changes, such as pcie\_aspm=off (reduced, but not eliminated), I get the AER/BadDLLP errors. I'm not apposed to any distro that properly supports the arch.

I have held off on going Gentoo because of the time investment and not knowing if it's going to solve this. I know that the issue is probably relatively benign, but due to the sheer volume of errors (on Mint I was getting approx 6/sec) it is causing hangs.

How to install Unity3d (Tutorial)

**Introduction:**
Hello, my name is Eitan. I am new to linux but i am learning rapidly.
I want to contribute to the community by writing a tutorials for things that might sound easy and unnecessary but for some it might help a lot. if you see that i wrote something wrong please be sure that your write in the comments so i will fix myself.


>!(This tutorial was tested on debian based oses)
!<

**Step 1: Installing Unity3d**
**To install UnityHub go to this** [link](https://forum.unity.com/threads/unity-hub-v2-0-beta-is-now-available-for-download.650455/)

Scroll down to download the latest version.

after downloading right-click on the file and go to properties and then permissions and then make executable.
now just run it and use it.

You may need to install this additional dependency:

sudo apt install libgconf-2-4

**To install Unity3d without UnityHub go to this** [link](https://forum.unity.com/threads/unity-on-linux-release-notes-and-known-issues.350256/page-2)
Scroll down to download the latest version.

after downloading right-click on the file and go to properties and then permissions and then make executable.
now just run it and use it.

You may need to install this additional dependency:

sudo apt install libgconf-2-4

&#x200B;

**Step 2: Installing Visual studio Code (VSCODE)**

**To install VSCode go to this** [link](https://code.visualstudio.com/)

after installing

go to mono project and install mono for VSCode in this [link](https://www.mono-project.com/download/vs/)

sudo apt install mono-devel
sudo apt install mono-xsp4
sudo apt install ca-certificates-mono
sudo apt install referenceassemblies-pcl
sudo apt install mono-complete
sudo apt install mono-dbg

this will fix not auto-completing in unity.

&#x200B;

**Step 2: Adding unity3D addons in Vscode**

First downlad dotnet addon in this [link](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download)

Second open VSCode and add these extensions that mentioned [here](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/other/unity)

Debugger for Unity, Unity Tools, Unity Code Snippets, Unity Snippets

&#x200B;

**Step 3: Connect Unity3D Editor to VSCode.**

open unity and go to file -> preferences and change external noscript editor to Browse and then go to
/usr/bin/code or /usr/bin/vscode

&#x200B;

if you got any problems with that try

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/code /usr/bin/vscode in the terminal

&#x200B;

**Step 4: Enjoy**

Now you are ready to use Unity3d without any problems :D

GnuCash vs kmymoney - or any other alternatives, especially with accrual --> cash report capability?

What the noscript says: which one is better? Also, re: kmymoney, what's the difference between 5.X and 4.X? Is there binary support (Windows cross platform capabilities) for 5.X?

Made my first guide for installing Ubuntu on the Lenovo Thinkpad E585. [Ryzen]

Made my first guide for installing Ubuntu on the Lenovo Thinkpad E585 on GitHub. Manjaro Gnome is also coming up. I'm new to GitHub and figuring out how to make a nice guide for these kind of things.

I hope that this clears things up.
