somethingsomethingidk@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•fcitx5 not working in distrobox and flatpak apps.2·1 month agohttps://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Fcitx5#Integration
You may have an uphill battle here. What DE are you using?
i3 is configured to use the program dmenu by default. A common replacement for that is rofi. I use wofi on sway. Rofi has more features, wofi is pretty simple but you can customize with css.
Sway will read the i3 config you already have if you put it in the sway config folder. Then just download dmenu if you want that same behavior. Some things like mod+enter is binded to i3-sensible-terminal, so if you don’t have i3 installed on the box it won’t find a terminal to open. The fix is to change the binding to your preferred terminal emulator.
All in all the transition is pretty painless.
Well, how do you think the milk gets in there?
A lot of times you will see the format string for the fedora version in the .repo file. This means its probably looking for f41. Since fedora updates fast, third party repos are usually slow to move to the next version and this repo probably doesnt exist causing dnf to fail. You can try and change the format string to the last available version. It usually works without issue, and updates aren’t disabled as long as the vendor updates that version
somethingsomethingidk@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•How do you manage your Toolbx on system upgrade?5·7 months agoSo this isn’t really an answer on how to migrate but this solution has worked well for me.
I define the toolboxes config with it, and if it gets destroyed, recreating it is as simple as creating a new one with the same name. You could upgrade or downgrade by just creating a new toolbox with the version you want.
somethingsomethingidk@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•It'sFOSS's tips to understanding the man pages and CLI4·8 months agoFor me, setting up colored man pages is essential. I was hoping to see that in this article, because my methods aren’t ideal.
I’m either holding
most
back a couple versions, using a personal version of gentoos man pager that relies on texinfo and breaks on fedora, or using vim which is not my favorite.
I found this. I didn’t look at the code at all but the Readme mentions another project that might help.

What makes you say that?
Show us the output of things like

to give us a fuller picture

/var/local/movies
etc. to keep the root standard and uncluttered.Of course it’s just personal preference

Seriously, the only thing I can find for drive & calander are repos that were archived in 2021
I think that it’s definitely a good case for overlaying with
install
. They say to use it sparingly because it increases the chances of something breaking, but that doesn’t mean it will. Something like a VPN usually needs liw level access that container isolation makes difficult.I’ve only had 1 issue on silverblue years ago where I couldn’t update because I had vim overlayed and they fixed it within a day or two.

somethingsomethingidk@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Can I remove a git repo without resorting to `rm -rf` ?6·11 months agoIf you’re making backups of things you care about and not running
sudo rm -rf
the command isn’t really dangerous.But +1 for having it in /tmp I have a bash function I call tempd that is basically
cd $(mktemp -d)
I use it so much for stuff I dont really care to keep.
Tailscale keeps the private keys locally, . It just facillitates setting up wireguard. They could steal your private keys, as could any program you install with root access. But it would comepletely destroy their business, and it’s open source. I really dont think they have anything to gain by tricking everyone
somethingsomethingidk@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•[HELP] I can't login nor elevate permissions in dm/de2·1 year agoThat’s really weird. I set up a test system and I couldnt reproduce. The only thing I noticed errors flooding dmesg about elogind already running when I enabled it following the docs. I guess sddm is already starting it?
I dont see how that would cause your issue though. I would probably just reinstall lol

What you want is an OEM install. Ubuntu and mint have them. Note sure what others do.
