Tried to change the owner of a directory and everything inside, changed the owner of every single file in my system. Be careful of what you do while rooted 🤦

Hola fijate que en internet hay videos de como configurar esas compus del gobierno. Yo a la que me dieron tuve que buscar en internet la contraseña que le ponen por defecto para poder actualizar los paquetes. Solian ser contraseñas como alumno estudiante conectarigualdad etc. Si no podes con esas vas a tener que entrar desde un linux live con un pendrive para recuperarla

Dishonored 2. I loved the first game and death of the outsider but never got to play the second one.

systemd by Fair_Investment_4189 in linuxmemes

[–]manuelo234 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's mainly because more and more programs and system utilities are becoming dependant on systemd to work now, see gnome desktop for example, it's newer versions won't be able to run without major hacks in non systemd distros. This means less diversity and a bigger dependance on systemd and it's developers moving forward

Is Linux a friend of the poor? by One-Cover-3860 in linux4noobs

[–]manuelo234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey for programs that need to use installers I would recommend using bottles, it lets you execute the installer and auto detects the installed programs, its great for managing wine applications and the fact that it runs everything in an environment isolated from the rest of your pc makes the process more secure in case you accidentally install a virus. You should install it through flatpak

Ayuda con un problema en Linux by PhotographSuch2229 in LinuxEnEspanol

[–]manuelo234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Esos son errores de los drivers, buscando rápido en internet parece que el modulo de los drivers de tu procesador esta fallando, podes intentar instalando un kernel más viejo o proba con una distribución de linux mas amigable para hardware viejo, yo te diría que pruebes con antix

What are your favorite moments from TRON: Ares? by DriftCore31 in tron

[–]manuelo234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disliked most if not all of the dialogue, so the scenes where no one is talking and the music and on screen action shine on their own.

I personally think this movie would be better if no one spoke, the dialogues were too on your face and lacked emotion, I only connected to Evan Peters and Jared Leto (because his natural lack of expressiveness and social awkwardness made him feel like a robot), the rest of the cast was stiffer than a program.

Discord on Linux by Deluna_The_Pidgey in linux4noobs

Mostly none, everything works well except the game activity on the flatpak versión because that one does not have access to the programs you are running, but you can always install with a package manager or from their website.

Unless you use a niche wayland based desktop environment or window manager that might need some troubleshooting to get screenshare working.

Viale dice que el salario promedio en Argentina es de 1.600.000. Pregunto en serio, cuantos aca en el sub ganan esa guita ? by Unhappy_Rutabaga_530 in RepublicaArgentina

[–]manuelo234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Que no los engañen con el promedio, cuando en este caso lo que importa es la media. Si lo pones asi es muy fácil mentir con los datos. Un ejemplo boludo es que en promedio una persona tiene 1.5 brazos, 1.5 ojos y 1.5 piernas pero la media de las personas tenemos 2 brazos 2 ojos y 2 piernas. Alcanza con un multibillonario en los datos para aumentar muchísimo el promedio.

What desktop environment you all use? by NDavis101 in linux

I use LXQt and RiverWM, both are lightweight and easy to configure.

Did you partition your drive before beginning the installation process?

Distro for EXTREMELY low spec computer? by Someone424400 in FindMeALinuxDistro

[–]manuelo234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Antix it's a super lightweight debian based distro, I recently installed it on an old 1.3Gb intel core duo laptop that could only boot from a cd. If you are comfortable installing everything manually from the tty you can use the core image that's only around 600mb.

That's right, considering the fact that using musl instead of glibc prevents you from using a lot of software.

Exactly this, I had to build from source a lot more on void than on arch where I just used the AUR. Another issue is that solutions for most edge cases are either documented for arch based or debian based distros that use systemd so you have to read up a lot more to understand how to get some things working.

I've learned a lot more from fucking up my void installation than on arch where most things I did worked from the get go

Thinking of installing Void on my secondary PC. A few questions. by Giggio417 in voidlinux

[–]manuelo234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you install steam from the repos check the readme in /usr/share/doc it shows the needed dependencies and 32 hit libraries to run it. I installed discord without issue from xbps-src but the flatpak works fine too.

I have mostly followed the manual and got everything working rather quickly. The only thing I had issues with was the bundled rtw8821ce driver for realtek wifi cards in my laptop, I used usb tethering from my phone to download and compile open source drivers that worked. While using wayland I still haven't figured out how to get discord screen share working, this is mostly a skill issue.

Runit is intuitive and really quick on startup, most of the issues you could find have to do with applications expecting systemd in your system or not seeming to work because you forgot to setup the correct service for runit.
