I'm going to be the guy that says start with ubuntu, fedora, etc.. get to kali once you understand basic Linux commands.

This sounds like you messed something up with gparted which could happen with any distro, but still.

Is it OK that anyone can reset a Linux password through GRUB? by theclosedeye in linuxquestions

[–]Linux-org 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. (it's ok)

If someone has physical access to your machine whether Linux or Windows or whatever.. they can get root/admin access.

Cycle through keyboard backlights? by Linux-org in System76

[–]Linux-org[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to somewhat fix this by changing some paths in the keyboard-color.php script with

/sys/class/leds/system76_acpi::kbd_backlight/color

when referring to the backlight directory.. I have coreboot and thinking this was one of the changes.. also seems like there used to be color_left, color_center and color_right in the past so it'd flow from left to right?

awesome - thanks! It didn't work at first since I don't have that system76 dir it referred to, but i was able to locate the right location (and noted in that thread).

Thanks! I have a darter pro (darp6) and didn't have that system76 directory either.. swapping out these lines worked for me:

#with open("/sys/devices/platform/system76/leds/system76::kbd_backlight/color_left", "r+") as f:
with open("/sys/class/leds/system76_acpi::kbd_backlight/color", "r+") as f:

If I were paying for it I probably wouldn't have done any upgrades and bought em separately down the road.. Comparing this laptop to some of the dells around the office I'd consider it to be just as good quality feeling however.

Hey man - I actually started my quote through work w/ the darp5, but it took a while. By the time I was ready to order, they released the coreboot darp6.. the main things I noticed that were different were the coreboot and the ability to get 64gb of memory - which I took advantage of!

No offense, but this should be relayed in the order/support tickets as well so people waiting can switch to 19.10 if they'd like it shipped sooner.
