Hello!

I recently moved, bringing both my laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad X131e running Debian) and my desctop (msi A320m pro motherboard, amd ryzen 5 cpu, running Arch).

My desktop didn't have a wifi card (I'd removed it to add a graphic card, my mobo didn't fit them both), it uses ethernet, but it turns out my new place has wifi included, but no ethernet. I'll grab my wifi card where I left it in two weeks, but in the meantime I wanted to connect my computer to my laptop so I could still use it with internet sometimes.

I followed this guide to accomplish it: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Internet_sharing Regarding the parts where there are several options:

-For step 2.3.1 (Enable Nat) I used nftables, since that's what I had installed

-For step 2.4 I chose to manually add an IP

After that, the ethernet indicator at the bottom of my screen (I use i3) shows the address I added in green, so it should work... Alas, when I try updating or pinging any site, I get the "Temporary failure i

I tried and the installer encounters an unexpected error as it reaches 100%. This removes all the files from the Program Files folder.

If I rename the folder before clicking the continue button I can keep all the binaries installed, but the application won't run saying it's missing a core dll.

Has anyone tried and succeeded?

Hello,

I have a desktop PC which I'll be running Kubuntu 24.04 LTS as my main OS. No Windows dualboot or anything.

I have 2 hard drives.

• My main one is a 1TB SSD NVME disk which will contain my Linux OS on a single BTRFS partition.
• My second one is a 1TB HDD NTFS formatted disk which contains only my data files (Pictures, Documents, Downloads, Desktop, Music, Videos, etc. Symlinked in my /home/user directory to replace the folders of the same name)

Since I'll be using BTRFS, I'll be performing snapshots (daily, weekly, monthly) with a certain retention for each.

But I want to also take snapshots of my whole system on a monthly basis or so on an external 8TB external backup drive (one of those big ones as big as a book that's permanently hooked up to my PC) for safety's sake.

My external USB backup HDD is exFAT formatted (out of the box).

Doing an rsync from from my NTFS data drive to my external drive won't be a problem. But I can't do an rsync from my BTRFS SDD to my externa

I am trying to create an entry in nvram to boot an os of my choice. I have the xxxxxxxxx.efi file for it ready and placed in the second partition that is 32 bit FAT formatted for EFI and also contains my Windows and other OS loaders.

I have understood the syntax for referring to a HDD and its partitions as sda1, sda2 etc. so that I can type /dev/sda2 for eg. But with nvme I am not sure.

I have a single such nvme sdd in the only M2 slot on motherboard. How to address the second partition in it for efibootmgr command?

In both Fedora and PCLinuxOS Debian edition which I have installed recently it seems I need to add the only user to sudoers list to perform certain actions.

How to do this?

Fedora KDE version does not seem to have all packages available through Discover.

How can I see all software from Fedora repos?
