Kazz<p>I remember in the late 90s installing Red Hat <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> for the first time, booting into X, and thinking "OMG I'm in love".</p><p>That feeling has never dissipated.</p><p>I hopped from Red Hat to Mandrake and then to Ubuntu and loved every minute. Then I discovered gaming and, to my regret, I had to use Windows.</p><p>Nowadays, my life is very different - I became more and more disabled over the years - and found myself having to survive on benefits. </p><p>I have 2 machines: a 2014 MacBook Air and an 8 year old PC. The laptop cannot run MacOS and support for Windows10 was being withdrawn. Being on benefits, buying a new machine is out of the question. Money is just too tight. So, once again, I was drawn to Linux.</p><p>I installed <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Xubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Xubuntu</span></a> on the laptop and <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Kubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kubuntu</span></a> on the PC. It has breathed new life into both computers. They run flawlessly and am incredibly grateful for them.</p><p>If and when the time comes where I can afford a new PC, I won't be effing around. Linux will be installed on it.</p><p>M$/Apple are my past.</p>

Kroc Camen<p><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Kubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kubuntu</span></a> hibernate doesn't work out of the box, so this is likely more to do with <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/KDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KDE</span></a> in general. That said, I did find a "solution", or rather an install option that makes hibernate work as advertised. <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Manjaro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Manjaro</span></a> does give an option for "swap with hibernate" during partitioning. Why was this not exposed in Kubutnu?</p><p>Again, my complaint is not that hibernate doesn't work because I didn't RTFM and do the leet hax in the terminal, but that under default options, the hibernate feature is present but does not work when initiated and worse still, does not communicate why nor provide a graphical means of resolving. Even Windows has a GUI for managing the swap file.</p><p>If you've had a machine running <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> for a while and you decide to utilise hibernate at that crucial moment and it doesn't work unless you reinstall your OS or re-partition your drive and rebuild the intramfs / grub, likely requiring a reboot anyway -- why is the feature even presented as available!??</p><p><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/LinuxIsNotReadyYet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxIsNotReadyYet</span></a></p>
Kroc Camen<p>Welcome one and all to the big <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> BS thread! I get that it's necessary to switch to Linux, I'm imploring you to do so, and I don't want to discourage anyone but I need to document the ways in which Linux is just not ready for 600 Million more users and I don't think it's any technical limitation so much as a lack of design self-awareness.</p><p>Case study 1: A basic 1GHz Intel netbook with 4GB RAM. I installed <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Manjaro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Manjaro</span></a>. Keys, touchpad, wifi and screen brightness work, very impressive. I also really like that Manjaro is not dumbed down and I was able to get plenty of information about the hardware.</p><p>But hibernate doesn't work. Clicking the button does nothing -- already a design flaw in that it can't even tell me *why* it isn't working. A quick Internet search lets me know that `systemctl hibernate` is the console command for invoking hibernate and should give me an error message. The swapfile size is not big enough, just 512MB for a machine with 4GB of RAM.</p><p>Can I resize the swapfile, using `dd` and a number of other `systemctl` commands? Yes! Should I have to? No! If I enable hibernation and it can't hibernate because the swapfile is too small then it should TELL ME and provide a GUI to fix it, and that's without considering that it should have set the swapfile size big enough during installation anyway!</p><p>But still, that's not enough. Despite having a hibernate feature, the installation didn't modify `initramfs` &amp; GRUB to handle hibernation! Can I do this manually? Yes! Do / Should I have / want to? Absolutely not!</p><p>Now downloading <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Kubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kubuntu</span></a> in hopes that its own features actually work out-of-the-box :|</p><p><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/KDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KDE</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/LinuxIsNotReadyYet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxIsNotReadyYet</span></a></p>

Remember the bios doesn't see the ssd ones (and I have no idea why! The bios seems very limited, probably due to microsoft pushing their software to the msi folks - it's an msi laptop).</p><p>Please help, as I don't wanna mess this up and my anxiety already rises because I don't know what to do here... 😔</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Kubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kubuntu</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/DareToAsk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DareToAsk</span></a></p>
Guruprasad :kubuntu: :arch:<p>I’m in a dilemma - I run <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Kubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kubuntu</span></a> 24.10 on my laptop with all the Plasma 6.1 <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wayland</span></a> goodness on a <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/btrfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>btrfs</span></a> + LUKS setup and I’ve been meaning to nuke and pave this to a <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ZFS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ZFS</span></a> + native encryption + <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/ZFSBootMenu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ZFSBootMenu</span></a> setup. I’m not very keen on using ZFS on a non-LTS release but can’t get Plasma 6.1 on 24.04. I could also use the vanilla <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a> 24.04 with Wayland on ZFS but I’m not keen on <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/GNOME" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GNOME</span></a> atm, even though work laptops (to be received soon) will have it (no ZFS or btrfs ☹️). 🤔🫤</p>
