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.

After hearing the new of Apple killing iTunes, I'm really glad I made the switch to Linux 3 years ago.

I was a full blown Mac user for 8 years, and then one time my Macboook Pro was stolen, with all of the music projects/graphic design stuff gone. I was crushed. So when that happened, I went to get a loaner laptop.

There was a local computer refurbishment store where I was living, and they refurbished old laptops and pcs with Linux Mint installed. I was a bit 'meh' at first, but then I tried out Mint and thought "Well, this kind of feels like Windows. I can roll with this for a bit."

Sure enough, I discovered the value of open source software and free software, and the great alternatives to the pricey and popular programs people tend to get tricked into using. One program that caught my attention, **VLC Media player**, changed everything I thought I knew about software and the people who put blood, sweat, and tears into making product, and sharing with the world free of charge.

Linux is the best thing that ever happened to me. I use **Mixxx** for DJing, I've made flyers/posters in **Krita**, **Libre Office** is just as good, if not better than MS Office, and the **'cmatrix'** command in the terminal is fun is want to feel like Neo!

I feel like a lot of people are missing out on what Linux has to offer, but at the end of the day, I'm glad I made the switch.

**'sudo apt-get install gratitude'**

Capt. Broverdose. :D

journal print or online

Hey everyone,
I hope this subreddit is the right place to ask.
So I‘am searching for a journal about Linux, IT-Security/Hacking.
If possible not just news also technical inforamtion and practical examples.
If there is a print journal it should be possible to get it in Germany per post or in store.
Language should be german or english.

Is GNOME shell meant to be a launcher for touch devices?

I recently went back to Linux at work after using Mac OS for years.

I installed Ubuntu and immediately noticed the default GNOME desktop looks and works like an android phone launcher.

Was this originally designed to be used on touchscreens? The app drawer, the animations and the dock don't seem to be made for desktop use.

Are Linux touchscreen devices a thing?

I ended up switching to KDE and I think it's much better for desktop use and for productivity.

Anoterh approach at joystick mapping

Hi I wanted to make my joystick mapping project public.

What is it. I basically have programmed as supporting driver for my rather complex arcade panel an input mapper which allows from mapping from n input devices to m virtual output devices.

My usecase simply was to have 4 sticks several dozends of buttons spinners and a trackball into 2 xbox gamepads a set of keystrokes and a virtual mouse.

Anyway here is the link, it is a first version with a binary build only for x86 linux (although if you build it yourself it might run on any architecture under linux which supports the dependent python libs)

[https://github.com/werpu/input\_pipe](https://github.com/werpu/input_pipe)

So what is the difference in general?

Most mappers usually cover either only one gamepad or limit themselves from keyboard to gamepad simulations or gamepad to keyboard.

There was only one mapper I could find which seemed to be flexible enough to cover a real m:n multiplex situation, Moltengamepad, but I quickly hit a wall with that one was well, thanks to documentation leaks thanks to bugs and its C nature which made it hard to fix.

After months of banging my head against MG I simply decided to write a mapper for my personal needs, which I now have opened for others to check out.

So have fun with it.

​

Just additional info if you are interested:

Here is the hardware I wrote the mapper for:
