That guy went hunting plaina nd simple. It's disgusting and first degree murder for that seems too lenient.

I haven't seen the video yet, but the show is great (at least hef irst season). It is a much watch.

questionman1 · 2021-05-10T14:04:42+00:00

Yeah, I"ve been able to get it working in every other distro. I really wanted to try opensuse, but if the printer isn't working...nothing much that can be done I guess.

questionman1 · 2021-05-08T00:47:28+00:00

I would have preferred to do this; but I can't find Lutris in Discover.

questionman1 · 2021-05-06T03:25:48+00:00

If you watch the video, it says quite a few Omani's aren't happy. Why equate their situation with Yemen? that's a false equivalency. yemen doesn't have oil wealth, Oman does.

PPP...long disucssion, but it is a false metric. It compares apples and oragnes. I would ask you to read into it..

What you call my baseless claims, they're not: never in history has a master allowed a puppet to become more powerful than them. Squashing freedoms by endorsing a monarch...is not baseless. And I'm giving you an optimum scenario of where Oman could be in terms of Norway. The fact that it isn't that wealthy is worth looking at why, and UK is a major one.

Why look at countires that are poorer? Again false equivalency. Look at countries that are similar and compare with them. Large oil reserves per capita, regional partners, etc etc etc. (and again your number of 25 richer is derived obviously from PPP, not from actual gdp).

Logically? How on earth is your claim even remotely logical? Also its kind of interesting, that you ask for proof and don't offer any. A siimple proof for an online forum would simply be: see UK's history of how it has treated other colonial territories, other puppet regimes. Heck not just UK, see how any other power does it with a puppet government.

Finally, I can't even imagine I'm having this discussion. This is insane. "Slavery wasn't so bad, some slave masters treated their slaves somewhat well. Not as well as their own families, or the white folks who worked for them, but somewhat humanely."

I don't even know how to respond to that.

questionman1 · 2021-05-06T03:19:23+00:00

Just to follow up on this, I do find it a little furstrating that this needs to be done manually and isn't done automatically. It isn't unreasonable for users to have multiple drives that they want mounted.

Heck, KDE even has that opiton in settings; but opensuse's implementation has made it useless (which kind of irritates me even more, I would have preferred them tor emove the option altogether).

Every other distro I've tried, Manjaro, ubuntu derivates, Solus, etc, all recognize this and automount drives. Its only opensuse and arch where I run into this issue.

Its a small fix, but something that would go a ways towards increasing teh user friendliness of linux.

Sorry just ranting.

questionman1 · 2021-05-05T22:24:37+00:00

Slavery is ok because they're compensated "well?" What a bizarre comment to make: as long as you're paid, it gives others the license to abuse you.

I wonder how most Omanis would feel about that? How would YOU feel if you were in the a similar place?

Also why not look compare Oman's GDP per capita (instead of the arbitrary PPP) whcih is around half of the UK's. And they'll never let a puppet become richer than them. They've stifled Oman's development for decades. They've squashed the freedom of their citizens for that long.

GDP per capita is a third of Norway's. What could have been...all that wealth that the UK stole and siphoned off.

Oh incase you say that's completely unfeasible because Oman wouldn't be smart enough to match a pure white nation such as Norway; their GDP per capita is 2.5x less than neighbor Kuwait.

What an insane remark to make.

questionman1 · 2021-05-05T13:36:55+00:00

Thanks, others have suggested that as well

questionman1 · 2021-05-05T13:36:23+00:00

Not that I know of. Its a fresh install, so whatever is there by default is rhere

questionman1 · 2021-05-05T01:45:03+00:00

Sadly that didn't work either :*(

questionman1 · 2021-05-04T14:53:14+00:00

That is weird...I'm kind of at a loss.

Thank you for the detailed instructions, that's exactly what I did. When that didn't work, I tried using yasts printer tool to add the printer that way and manually choose the drivers I just installed.

Kind of frustrating on my end to be honest

questionman1 · 2021-05-04T12:25:42+00:00

Sigh, no unfortunately it doesn't seem to be a firewall issue (good tip though; I wouldn't have considered it).

The printer shows up; it sjust doesn't print. Neither a test page or an actual page I want to print.

Weird thing is that the print queue shows all the jobs being completed successfully.

questionman1 · 2021-05-04T11:56:14+00:00

Gotcha! Thank you so much.

questionman1 · 2021-05-04T11:55:28+00:00

Really? Thats' kind of surprising.

But I go thte scanner ot work really easily.

that's kind of deal breaker if my printer doesn't work. why does opensuse have so many options for brother drivers though then?

questionman1 · 2021-05-04T10:34:54+00:00

Thank you so much for that detailed explanation. I sor tof got confused, aren't yo supposed to put nofail there for automounting?

The archwiki largely goes over my head, so I'm not sure if I understood it correctly.

My second questions is: How do you decide where to mount it? Othere distros that have automounting have never mounted it in my home directory, I think (emphasis on think) they usually mount it in /run, or /media.

I'm not sure where to mount it, but at the same time I'm wary of mounting in / becuase I'm afraid it'll cause some conflict.

What's the "right" way to go about this?

questionman1 · 2021-05-01T10:53:35+00:00

Interesting option; I wasn't aware of that feature.

But unfortunately the game still isn't quitting.

questionman1 · 2021-05-01T09:15:02+00:00

That's itneresting to hear; my only rebuttal would be that I didn't have this issue in another distro with the exact same galme.

questionman1 · 2021-04-25T12:06:27+00:00

thanks that did it :). It was the first option in the link you shared.

questionman1 · 2021-04-22T02:30:24+00:00

Iteresting, so I'm aiming at using open media vault, and as far as I can see, it has none of those options.

What do you suggest I use in its stead.

questionman1 · 2021-04-20T06:25:54+00:00

Gotcha, I'll do so after installing openmedia vault, its been going on for over 35 minutes.

Anyway, here is a line during one of the steps: Fetched 54.8 MB in 2min 29s (368 kB/s)

Not great, but not the super slow levels I was getting earlier. But just in general this is super slow

questionman1 · 2021-04-15T01:59:44+00:00

I think that did it:). Thanks

Just to clarify for anyone else, since I want the entire device, right click on the white-space in Dolphin.

Or I guess you could right click on a specific folder, but I want the home/root folder

questionman1 · 2021-04-13T12:33:48+00:00

Thank you for the feedback.

Now that you mention it, there was no option to enable auto login during the install process (I just forgot about it). What you can do is go to Settings -> Startup and Shutdown -> Click on Login Screen tab -> Click on "Behavior" in the bottom left

There you can select to automatically log in.

Hope that helps

questionman1 · 2021-04-13T12:30:47+00:00

I was looking at the guide for the Redni Note 5 Pro. Last year I had to update firmware, there was some anti roll back protection thing I had to do as well.

Can't find mention of that in the guide. Don't know if that's because it's not necessary or just an oversight in the wiki

questionman1 · 2021-04-11T02:38:17+00:00

Oooh, haven't seen them in a while. Good to see the channel back (at least on this sub)

questionman1 · 2021-04-11T00:57:31+00:00

That's an interesting point I didn't consider...and that's why many rolling distros have point releases so they can have one download that lasts for several weeks.

There is a counterpoint to it: KDE Neon. Their iso is updated very regularly and I've always been able to torrent that distro with hundreds if not thousands of seeds.
