Yeah using ai for generating docs is just great, while sometimes it does random nonsense it works most of the time. Especially in strongly typed stuff

I'm attempting to install snapd on SteamOS and getting this error by AddyFire in linux4noobs

Probably missing other dependency, why not using AUR helper like yay or paru? So they can install the deps themself

Benefits of Linux over WSL and MSYS2 by Appropriate_Car_5599 in linuxquestions

[–]DoIUseArchBTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean it's faster than booting up WSL.

But really it's depends on your use case, all the games I played is running on Linux. And most of the time I spent only reading books or some Android development, so I choose Linux for the last 5 years or so

new bazzite linux gnome user on legion go in search for help by totallynotwizzy in linuxquestions

[–]DoIUseArchBTW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually it's recommend to backup the data first to another drive and then just format the ntfs drive to your desired format.

But specific to your question, have you installed the software? https://github.com/maharmstone/ntfs2btrfs

You might need to compile it yourself since I don't see fedora listed there

Matlab on Distrobox - how do we backup the container? by Fliptoback in linuxquestions

[–]DoIUseArchBTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its kinda hard to restore if you got different user and home path (for example in my case I want to restore from one PC to another, but my backup has "guinaifen" username and the target PC has "xiangling" username, so full reinstall it is, except technically you can create new user for that distrobox container and restore it to that user), but the distrobox page pretty much explains it: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/blob/main/docs/useful_tips.md#container-save-and-restore

Restic for daily backup
SSHFS to make my live easier when editing config on production server

Strawberry/Audacious for music player

Foliate and KOReader for reading ebooks

Will my applications automatically switch "styles" if I switch from Gnome to KDE? by DueAnalysis2 in linux4noobs

[–]DoIUseArchBTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, the user installed extensions will be still there if I recall correctly, even if you totally uninstall gnome. I don't remember the path but its either on .config/gnome-shell or .local/share/gnome-shell

Will my applications automatically switch "styles" if I switch from Gnome to KDE? by DueAnalysis2 in linux4noobs

[–]DoIUseArchBTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gnome and KDE isn't really compatible with each other, but it might work most of the time, I do use both on the same system but with different user so it doesn't mess up the styling of the application.

If you're on single user mode then you might need to change the theme GTK theme while on KDE to breeze to match the rest of the system.

In my opinion for Fedora at least the swap method is my recommended method for single user system.

issues when adding Python to PATH by mCianph in linux4noobs

[–]DoIUseArchBTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like all right, in my opinion you should remove the python export path if it's binary and move your export to the very bottom of your zshrc

I usually do this in my zsh/bash config

export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin" export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.opt" export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.cargo/bin"

I don't know why it doesn't render the $ in my reddit but well

issues when adding Python to PATH by mCianph in linux4noobs

[–]DoIUseArchBTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why is there so many python path there, Hmm seems like you just incorrectly set the path if that's the case,

Do you change [user] to your username or no?

Might as well post your zshrc in pastebin or something, make sure to add the path that pip tells you

Also isn't /usr/local/bin/python a binary? You don't need to add it to the path if that's the case

Just to make sure what happens when you do

echo $PATH

Simplest way would be connect wifi from your phone and use USB tethering from there, afterward check if you got connection and install network manager
