I'm in need of some #linuxhelp again:

I have two computers running #Manjaro, both being on the same wifi network and I am able to send single files with #KDE Connect between them.

But I would like to move whole directories with tens of thousands of files. In Dolphin, both computers appear on the other under "Devices", but when I click on them, both show the error "target has no Remote Filesystem plugin" and show no files.

I can't find a single page describing this error.

Alright, I feel I am at a loss with no idea how to proceed.

New notebooks appear to be only able to boot from USB sticks formatted in fat32.

All the Linux tools for creating a bootable USB drive only seem to make the sticks formatted in iso9660.

Is there anything I can do to install Linux on a notebook? I never had this issue with any of my old notebooks before.

A little #linux help? Trying to install Phototonic 3.1 but getting a qmake error. Anyone know of source to save me building it? For some reason the #debian family only has version 2.1 available, and there's no DEB file, appimage or Flatpack out there.

[SOLVED]

I'm configuring a static IPv6 address on a device (withing the CIDR range known by my router).

The device itself shows me its IPv6 address as the one I configure, plus another one given by the router (on the same LAN interface).

The device can ping other IPv6 on my network and public IPv6.

But I can't ping this device with the static IPv6 from my network: "no route to host".

Do I have to configure something else so the IPv6 is visible and pingable from others? Like, something to make systemd-networkd say to the router "I am this IPv6 by the way"?

It's on Debian 13 and I use systemd-networkd.

Any help is welcome (except to tell me to use something else)!

Looking to solve a workflow problem. Boosts welcome.

I want to be able to edit text files on my laptop and on my phone, seamlessly. Currently, I use Dropbox, and it works great for this on my Windows laptop and my Android phone. I tried migrating away from Dropbox a couple of years ago, when they started putting in "AI" features, but I couldn't find anything else that had the features I use *all the time*.

Will evtl. ein neues Gerät von Lenovo erwerben, gleich ohne Windows drauf. Also solls ein #Linux werden, bevorzugt was auf Ubuntu Basis.

Das ist allerdings ne große Ausgabe für mich und unerlässlich ist, dass die Eingabe über den Stift funktioniert, Nutzung zum digitalen Zeichnen mit #Krita o.Ä. Es ist ein 2 in 1 convertible: Yoga 7 2in1 Gen 10, 14"

Wie ist da so der allgemeine Stand? Als ich mich vor Jahren das letzte Mal schlau gemacht habe, sah das nicht so rosig aus...

Can any desktop #Linux users offer recommendations for a low- to mid-grade image editing program? I'm looking to replace Paint.NET when I migrate from Windows. I want something with multi-layer capability, effects, etc., but let's face it, I'm not a professional artist; I'll mostly be using it to stitch together memes.

I know of That Program Whose Name Is a Slur. I'm dubious about it partly because of that, and also bc I've heard its UI is awful. There are better options, right?
