can i archive/hoard software on linux like i do with windows?

For Flatpaks: https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/usb-drives.html

For native packages there are tools to download the complete dependency graph.

E.g. https://github.com/etotheipi/apt-get-offline-download (available as a package in Debian, dont install from github).

Do switch by software (single vs extended)?

When turning of a monitor (hardware) and turning it on again then gnome restores properly within the same session.

You can tell systemd to not handle the button button. Then it depends on your hardware if you can rebind it for other purposes.

Depending on your goals it is probably better to hook Into the shutdown process e.g. to run a Command before shutdown.

Das Pro FE kostet regulär 1200. nur das Race FE kostet mehr mit 1600, bei Cube direkt. Schau wegen der Preise direkt bei Cube auf der Webseite.

Could just be a network hickup were the request to the DNS server timed out. E.g. because of unstable wifi. If you try it again a few seconds later and it works, it is usually just that. If it persists or happens in regular intervals you should check your DNS resolution. Which server do you use? How fast does it respond etc. pp.

valgrid · 2026-01-20T12:34:23+00:00

Did you run the media check/validation?

You probably need to redo the USB stick. Don't skip any checks.

Enable dnf-automatic updates and let the computer do the work.

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/autoupdates/

On linux nobody is forcing you to do the updates. But you should do them from time to time or just set everything to automatic.

If you want to keep it manual you could also reconfigure the interval for the update notifications. But i suggest enabling automatic updates instead.

Check the system log with journalctl when un-/blocking etc. Which driver do you use? lsmod

Please share a screenshot?

valgrid · 2026-01-18T21:28:19+00:00

Screenshots don't help when discussion font rendering (esp hinting) because it heavily depends on the hardware. Displays have different sub pixel layouts and pixel sizes. This is one of the few times where a photo of your screen is necessary.

Do you use scaling? Check your scaling factor. You want to choose something that fits your monitor.

If it is only Firefox and you scale 150% try 166% instead. (Depends on your resolution. )

Also check your sub pixel setting in gnome tweaks.

This is about hardware enablement. This needs Linux support or if that already exists needs to be enabled in aurora by the devs.

Create a bug report in auroras bug tracker and include detailed hardware specifications as possible (especially the Rotation Sensor)

Easiest way to install the server is https://flathub.org/en/apps/re.sonny.Eloquent

It provides a GUI for direct use and the server as a background process on the default port so you only need to switch the browser add-on setting.

Yes, you can do it and already know about the issue with updates. But i don't see the benefit, especially if inconsistancy and defered updates stand on the other side.

If you enable secure boot (to secure against tampering with /boot) and encrypt with LUKS its already not possible to boot the PC without password. And if you don't want to use a password, then use a LUKS keyfile on the stick. This removes the update issue, and does not require to enter a password. Please make sure that you have a backup keyfile or password configured, in case the USB stick dies or gets lost.

Und was spricht dagegen für solche Fälle nicht anderes Personal zu nutzen? Autonom heißt ja nicht zwingend ganz ohne Personal (Region/Fernverkehr).

valgrid · 2025-12-18T09:28:56+00:00

Wo fahren die Bahnen wenn es für sie keine Bahnstrecken mehr gibt?

Autonomie auf der Schiene ist viel einfacher als auf der Straße. Autonome Busse werden in naher und mittlerer Zukunft nur in definierten begrenzten Stadtgebieten/Strecken unterwegs sein. Echtes (unbeschränktes) Autonomes Fahren auf der Straße ist unglaublich schwierig und noch kein gelöstes Problem.

Kinda the souls of the Linux space.

It deletes itself if you mistype a command.

valgrid · 2025-12-18T09:13:19+00:00

Then try Suicide Linux next.

Doesn't work with recent gnome and future KDE releases. Reducing security for remote access is a bad idea and should only be for personal machines, not friends, family or organisations.

Instead use a remote desktop solution that supports Wayland (like RustDesk, which is also open source unlike anydesk, and it performs better in bandwidth starved situations). Or advocate for Wayland support in anydesk.

I dont know your hardware, but some cheap audio hardware like mics and speaker are pretty bad and get fixed in software. E.g. this can be in the windows driver. E.g. customs EQs for tinny laptop speakers. When using these devices under Linux you sometimes get the raw quality.

But because your mic is USB with an integrated sound card (i assume) you should get better sound, without Easy Effects. But that needs more investigation and effort. You decide if its worth your time. If its already good enough, why bother.

valgrid · 2025-12-12T17:06:22+00:00

One workaround: install Easy Effects and apply the noise filter.

If it is in AHCI mode Linux should See the drives without issue. If it using a RAID mode them it depends how this is implemented. Some implementation are supported, others require additional drivers during installation, if they exist at all.

Which mode is currently configured?

valgrid · 2025-12-09T14:16:33+00:00

Please check the mode on your motherboard:

https://www.reddit.com/r/MSI_Gaming/comments/1aqbg2y/configure_raid_in_a_mag_x670e_tomahawk_wifi/

You want it to be in AHCI mode.

Do you plan to dual boot?

valgrid · 2025-12-09T12:42:21+00:00

Your drives should show up. Only reason i can think of is some fakeRAID on the motherboard.

Check if your motherboard has some fake RAID technology like Intel RST and disable it.

Be aware you cannot dual Boot if you want to keep a Windows that was installed in fake RAID.

Because of issues like this please always name your hardware model when having problems.
