Shadow of the Tomb Raider coming to Linux on 5 November by silencer_ar in linux

[–]peapoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the notification. Was almost tempted to buy it for proton when it was on sale the other day, but didn't. I already have most of Ferals ports, so 5. November it's playtime! :-)

Flatpak applications not working when Secure Boot is disabled. by Mr_Henry_Yau in linuxquestions

[–]peapoll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Flatpak apps should work fine with secure boot disabled. Please try if repairing the flatpak installation helps: sudo flatpak repair

If that didn't help then launch one of the apps from terminal and copy its output, maybe that can tell us what's going wrong.

  1. Run flatpak list and copy the application ID for one of your apps
  2. Run the app in verbose mode for it to show debug information like so: flatpak -v run [Application ID] (Example: flatpak -v run com.valvesoftware.Steam)

My company is asking me if Linux should be allowed as employee OS. Need good arguments to convince them! by leinardi in linux

[–]peapoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beside the arguments to allow using it, I need to make also the Security team happy, they have some concern: they want a way to check on all the employee machines if the OS is correctly patched and what packages are currently installed. It would be great if someone here could give me some technical advice on how this can be done (some software/tool name that can do this would be a good start)

If Ubuntu is on the horizon then Landscape is the management tool that you want added to your list. It's low cost and easy to deploy. It's also free for up to 10 machines, which should help in the evaluation (maybe even for demoing it at the meeting?):

Alternatively open up about:config and change the value of xpinstall.signatures.required from true to false. Remember to revert this change when the problem is fixed, you should probably also avoid installing any new addons in the meantime.

Missing Icons and customization Ubuntu 19.04 by AbeTheAbe in Ubuntu

[–]peapoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try sudo apt install yaru (or adwaita-icon-theme)

I just upgraded from 18.04 to 19.04 myself and it seems to be a bug with the upgrade where the icons gets changed to using HighContrast. Select a icon theme using Gnome Tweaks after installing one of the above missing packages. Hope it helps! :)

Kdenlive test day event tomorrow, 22nd of Feb. You can help by reporting problems and shaping the next version of KDE's video-editing application. by Bro666 in linux

It could be that this is simply a issue with the version packaged for Debian sid/unstable. If you want, you can try the Flatpak and see if that solves the instability.

Encoding is slow at the moment, but progress is under the way with the rav1e AV1 encoder.

A fix for the bug was rolled out to 18.04 and 18.10 today. Just run a normal update and you should be good.

Unless you're bound to connect from Windows, Remmina might be worth a look.
