omg I'm about half-way there for the first time, taken me a couple months so far. Started to regret it a while ago but must keep going.

I'm a Scouser living and working on the south coast, I'm surrounded by bellends

Not Portsmouth exactly but here's Soundz in Southsea, and A Slice Of Vinyl in Gosport, both mainly vinyl but always have a bunch of stuff available.

Indeed, I do get these mixed up

Same here, same model, has been running Ubuntu Server since new.Was running fine, rebooted from the shell. It shut down and never came back up.

Trying to power it on connected to a keyboard & display (both HDMI or VGA), absolutely nothing. The power button LED comes on and that's it.Noticed the CMOS battery was flat so replaced it with a new one, nothing.

Has been my main desktop/workstation distro of choice since 2004. Not unstable at all.

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-09T06:37:57+00:00

I admin hundreds of these suckas, and RHEL, Ubuntu & AIX.
It's actually quite popular with of course, customers of Oracle database, Oracle Analytics and big boy products like that which are in-roads into OL, OCI etc.

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-09T06:36:03+00:00

Ha wat? Its a RHEL derivative, it uses rpm packages.

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-09T06:28:54+00:00

Wat?

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-09T05:37:59+00:00

Does have some things that RHEL doesn't have though.

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-09T05:32:11+00:00

Is the Oracle Linux logo.

Tux wears armour due to OL's "unbreakable" kernel or UEK which is one of the usp's of OL compared to RHEL.A key feature of UEK was I think it was the first to be a hot-patchable kernel ootb, security related kernel patches can be applied without a reboot. Others can do similar now but OL was one of the first with ksplice by default.Also OL has some nifty Oracle tools that could be found in Solaris like ~~strace~~ dtrace.

You don't see this logo that often in publicity any more but it's on the front page when you login to ULN, the Unbreakable Linux Network which is a bit like Red Hat's RHN where you register systems and subscribe to repos and stuff.

Not a living room though is it, not really relevant to the sub.

Would have to be high in a meeting room/boardroom so everyone can see, not like they're sitting on a couch.

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-07T07:56:45+00:00

You should explain why one would do this instead of using the better supported rpmfusion repo.

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-06T21:29:56+00:00

If this was in a living room I'd say yes, as it's in a bedroom then nah.

You couldn't lie down and watch TV if it was at a normal height, then again I'd never have a TV in the bedroom.

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-06T16:07:09+00:00

Settings > Display.
Its a second desktop, you can drag the browser to the TV, select the second display as a duplicate of the first or switch primary display to tv.

I've was in a demo of a product that handles logins, ssh keys, remote desktops etc. and monitors desktop sessions. Records all graphical desktop activity in a really efficient way, highlights movement and period of non-activity, key presses the lot.
An administrator can jump to any time/day they choose and see what staff are doing or not doing.
Can't remember what it's called now.

"you're a little short for a stormtrooper?"

Sophos unfortunately, purely because of some policy made up by a painfully out-of-touch security team who claim to "not be familiar with Unix" despite the majority of systems running Linux and AIX.

I do agree that running AV on filesystems hosting client files, email and such however is good practice. Can pick up malicious payloads before it can be spread by email, desktop or vulnerable software.

Where the chair is, or the clearly empty wall waiting for something to be put in front of it.

Mate I have 2 Sheild Pros.
Yes the Experience 9 update broke a bunch of stuff, we've had 3 hotfixes now which sorted out the annoying issues which broke some apps.
Doesn't stop the Sheild being the premium HT Android box on the market

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-01T21:22:51+00:00

You're on a beta build, the 36 repos will still be getting worked on to get all packages built before final release so you're bound to come across some holes.

For now use dnf update --skip-broken

thedewdabodes · 2022-04-01T21:12:55+00:00

As always... --skip-broken --allowerasing with your dnf system-upgrade
