does anyone knows what's the root cause of this issue/bug ? I've had the exact same problems and I suspect it's because of my wi-fi card drivers / 6.4 kernels and onwards

basically: frequent wifi disconnects, complete unrecoverable system crashes during high network activity, and no sysrq responses afterwards. logs say nothing

Wifi stops working followed by whole system freeze

This seems similar to a situation I encountered that I had attributed to a failing wifi adapter and solved by replacing the adapter. About the time kernel 6.4 was released I began getting periodic and intermittent freezes followed by a crash and reboot. I discovered that I was having a cpu going into deadlock that was the symptom of the freeze and crash. Eventually over some time I traced it down to the wifi repeatedly disconnecting and reconnecting but it became apparent that those repeated ...

Got to keep my work laptop and just realised that I'm now free to ditch Windows and install Linux. It's a Thinkpad E14 gen 3 with AMD Ryzen 5, 16 gb ram and a 256 gb ssd. I dabbled with Mint a long time ago but consider myself a somewhat informed newbie, who now has the time to experiment and learn.

So I'm looking for tips and advice about which distro I should check out, what I should take into account and anything that can help me with this project.

Hey anyone running #GarudaLinux - I'm not but two of my friends are, and I have a couple of questions I was hoping could be answered.

  • One of them can't upgrade their system at the moment as librewolf can't resolve the dependency libvpx.so=11-64

  • The Other hasn''t been able use Blender for the last 2 months because Python is incompatible (apparently a function name changed to do with string manipulation)

    • Any advice on how I can help them fix this?

    E: La liste des sources ne peut être lue.

    Je suis pas vraiment un foudre de guerre en bidouillage linux et c’est bien au-delà de mes cométences. Est-ce que qqun.e pourrait m’aider ?

    [Edit: Solved!] I [had] a bizarre-ass #Bash #scripting problem. I'm at my wits' end.

    I have a script that scans a directory and picks a random file from it. This script works just fine if I invoke it manually, from the command line in a terminal window.

    But if I run it from the Linux Mint/Cinnamon menu (start menu, whatever), it hangs when it tries to list the files in the dir. Likewise when run from crontab (which is how I really want to run it most of the time). 🧵 1/4

    Update: I tried to copy the themes to the themes folder (I had to run Nautilus as root to gain the permission to do this) the themes are showing up now, but they are on the wrong dropdown list (icons) and not a separate 4th field. I could not find a .themes folder, so I made one at root, but it doesn't do anything. Attempting to load any of these themes causes the system to immediately reach 100% CPU usage across all CPUs, so they aren't installed correctly. What do I have to do to make the custom theme field show up.
    For reference, I got my themes from here: https://github.com/B00merang-Project/

    Sagt mal wenn ich bei Bottels ein Windoof Programm installiert habe wie bekomm ich das hin, dass ich bei #linux_mint das Programm bei mir im Startmenü finde? Auf die 3 Punkte neben dem Programm hab ich schon geklickt & dort find ich nur was fürn Desktopsymbol & bei Steam hinzufügen. Letzteres hat mich etwas verwirrt aber okay. Jedenfalls tut keins der beiden was ich möchte bzw eigentlich tun die gar nichts zumindest ist mir nichts aufgefallen.Habt ihr da Lösungen? #did #linuxdesktop #linuxhelp

    Seeking help with linux install.

    I am trying to keep Debian installed on my pc but my MSI motherboard keeps removing the boot entry from NVRAM so it doesn't show up when I reboot. So i am forced to boot to windows so that the entry is repopulated on reboot. I heard it's because MSI motherboard removes any entries that are not in the default path (/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi). I tried manually creating this entry with bootctl (systemd-boot) and EFIbootmgr. But this still doesn't stop the boot entries from being removed. And once the boot to windows then reboot only the grub entry to Debian is left and not the systemd boot entry. I am trying to move it to the systemd-boot.

    I want to move of windows eventually but I need the debian install to be consistent first.

    What are the proper commands for bootctl and efimgr to set the correct bootloader so that it persists after each shutdown? I have the debian install on a sata SSD and windows is on the nvme drive.
