It's a shame some of the newer folks haven't faced the wrath of NBSD In the linux thread.

DoomTrainPhD posted:what have you had to build that isn’t in rpm fusion or the stock repos? My prefered video mplayer front end. Baka Mplayer I also had to add snap to get my email client mailspring. Not a manual build though. Microsoft Teams also required me to add Microsoft's repo to my repo list since it was not available in any of the the default ones. Though I guess I could have installed it as a flatpak through flathub, though the default flatpak repo also didn't include it. Nothing like game breaking or anything (though grandma type user would have just been poo poo out of luck on getting these apps). On arch they were all available in the AUR or default repos.

mycophobia posted:have you tried vlc? Yeah, it's fine as well. I just prefer the UI for Baka Mplayer. Both are acceptable. Edit: I'm not making GBS threads on Fedora though. I'm actually liking it. And it's not dropping core dumps on me all the time like arch was. Only app that has crashed (and boy does it love crashing) so far has been DNF Dragora. Though I am using Gnome in Fedora rather than KDE in Manjaro and the other Arch derivatives that I've tried. So part of the problem might have been that. Lamenting the inconvenience of having to add a couple of repos and git clone one app is nothing compared to it not crashing. Nitrousoxide fucked around with this message at 05:02 on Feb 19, 2021 |

Nitrousoxide posted:For me personally, it's the fact that it crashes about 50% of the time it is opened, or fails to pull the package lists from the repos its been assigned. That's absolutely hilarious. All they had to do was write a gtk front end for dnf, and it barely even works. There's some kind of poetry in there.

Oh cool, I got Dracut working in cross-compiled environments. Now I can auto-generate initramfs images for embedded devices without building another filing system dedicated to the initramfs. I need to test the rest of their modules to ensure that they are also cross-compile compatible, cleanup the makefile logic and patches, and submit some of the patches upstream, but it was a fun personal project. https://github.com/retroroot-linux/retroroot/tree/develop/retroroot/package/dracut https://github.com/retroroot-linux/retroroot/tree/develop/retroroot/fs/dracut FlapYoJacks fucked around with this message at 16:20 on Feb 22, 2021 |

it really doesn't matter what you use if you're just learning Linux unless you have a specific goal in mind

Using Mint is dumb though. Everything I've seen from that distro is amateur-hour bullshit. It's also downstream of Ubuntu, which is downstream of Debian, so you get some serious distro centipede bullshit on top. OpenSuse, Fedora, mayyybe Ubuntu if you have a desktop and don't want to deal with dumb stuff all the time. Debian if you want dependable two years of peace and quiet between upheaval, Gentoo if you are a mad person. code:

pretty unclear what "learning linux" even means anymore. at one point you could do like linux from scratch and write all your own init scripts and whatnot, and more or less this work had a direct relationship to what professional sysadmins often needed to know (because these were dark times). now though the professional work is mostly container juggling and while linux has tuning knobs it is ideally an opaque appliance. if anything wsl is kind of representative in that you get a pretuned core (kernel, init, libraries) from the virtualization vendor, and are pretty unlikely want to mess with it much.

I'm sure there's a thread for it, but what's the current state of the art for container juggling anyway? I've been off in an embedded world for ages, where it hasn't been too necessary to track things like that but now and then I come up for air.
