I have not has any problem, it was pretty straight forward. I have Raspbian (Debian base) on Respberry Pi and there isn't any problem tho. When I first start Linux for the first time. first Distro I used is Redhat 7 (code name: Guinness - release 2000). That how I stick with RedHat family. I also do like Gentoo but too long to build lol.

I did tried to play Doom on it, the screen kept flicker. Wayland is just early, it runs fast tho.

But now that I'm thinking of it, I'm interesting hearing about container platforms and cloud platforms under Linux, and anything that is has to do with Linux where the IT world is going to cloud and container based solutions and automation and configuration management etc. And also Ubuntu/Debian, and CentOS/RHEL, and Linux security etc. And reading some about power shell under Linux would be nice too, and am interested in bash shell scripting and python scripting, does that help?

I heard of wayland, but will be sticking to xorg for now since all my video card are nvida cards. If there is no nvidia support I won't be able to play games under Linux with wayland. Let us know once you test wayland with gaming under Linux will be interesting to hear your experiences.

Thanks for posting! I stepped away from fedora a few years back because during upgrades stuff kept breaking. Ran on Scientific Linux for a while, but running Ubuntu and Debian now, never had any problems with upgrading since.

Hey anyweb, This is feedmebits here, new looks of the forums look nice! I'm willing to help out when I can and when I have time. Not sure yet what I would like to read, I mostly like reading topics where people have a question, problem or need advice, and like to learn stuff from others as well I usually get my news sources from other sites, what are you ideas to starting over? btw I sent an email to your hotmail acount did you ever receive it, chances are it might have arrived in your spam folder. Cheers, inittux/feedmebits

Upgrading Fedora 28 Workstation to Fedora 29 Using the command line This method is the recommended and supported way to upgrade from Fedora 28to Fedora 29. Using this plugin will make your upgrade to Fedora 29 simple and easy. 1. Update software and back up your system Before you do anything, you will want to make sure you have the latest software for Fedora 28 before beginning the upgrade process. To update your software, use GNOME Software or enter the following command in a terminal. sudo dnf upgrade --refresh Additionally, make sure you back up your system before proceeding. 2. Install the DNF plugin sudo dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade 3. Start the update with DNF Now that your system is up-to-date, backed up, and you have the DNF plugin installed, you can begin the upgrade by using the following command in a terminal: sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=29 This command will begin downloading all of the upgrades for your machine locally to prepare for the upgrade. If you have issues when upgrading because of packages without updates, broken dependencies, or retired packages, add the ‐‐allowerasing flag when typing the above command. This will allow DNF to remove packages that may be blocking your system upgrade. 4. Reboot and upgrade Once the previous command finishes downloading all of the upgrades, your system will be ready for rebooting. To boot your system into the upgrade process, type the following command in a terminal: sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot Your system will restart after this. Many releases ago, the fedup tool would create a new option on the kernel selection / boot screen. With the dnf-plugin-system-upgrade package, your system reboots into the current kernel installed for Fedora 29; this is normal. Shortly after the kernel selection screen, your system begins the upgrade process. Now might be a good time for a coffee break! Once it finishes, your system will restart and you’ll be able to log in to your newly upgraded Fedora 29 system.

Well, it's true, I've neglected this site for years, for various reasons including work, my Microsoft MVP commitments, and of course the sister site windows-noob.com. You could say I've practically ignored linux-noob.com and done as little as possible to help it survive other than the bare minimum which is to keep the domain name alive and make sure the data in the site itself was protected, but the time has come to re-resurrect the site, breath new life and start afresh. So, today I've updated the site license, and will with the help of the web server admin plan to upgrade the site to the latest and greatest version of Invision Power Board and once that is complete, start to re-energize this site and get people coming back. Please help ! But before doing that, I need you to help me understand what exactly you want to read about on linux-noob, what should this site be about going forward ? Do you want a complete re-birth or just move forward and start-over ? I'd love to read your comments and look forward to the next stages ! cheers niall

You can install RetroPie on Raspberry Pi or on Debian/Ubuntu on a PC What RetroPie? RetroPie allows you to turn your Raspberry Pi, ODroid C1/C2, or PC into a retro-gaming machine. It builds upon Raspbian, EmulationStation, RetroArch and many other projects to enable you to play your favourite Arcade, home-console, and classic PC games with the minimum set-up. For power users it also provides a large variety of configuration tools to customise the system as you want. RetroPie sits on top of a full OS, you can install it on an existing Raspbian, or start with the RetroPie image and add additional software later. It's up to you.

Can't decided which Distro to choose. Don't worry! there is plenty of choices. You can always try out those popular Linux such as, Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, SUSE. More list of Distros Step 1 MultiBootUSB is a free and open source cross-platform application which allows you to create a USB drive with multiple Linux distributions. It also supports uninstalling any distribution at any point in time, so you can reclaim space on your drive for another one. Step 2 The recommended filesystem is FAT32, so make sure to format your USB drive before creating a multi-boot USB stick.Step 3 Download the ISO images of Linux distributions you want to install. Step 4 Once you have everything, start MultiBootUSB. The home screen asks you to select the USB disk and the image file for the Linux distribution which you want to put on your USB. MultiBootUSB supports persistence for Ubuntu, Fedora and Debian distros, which means that changes made to the live version of the Linux distributions are saved to the USB disk. You can select the persistence size by dragging the slider under MultiBootUSB tab. Persistence gives you an option to save changes to the USB drive in runtime. Step 5 Click on Install distro option and proceed with the installation. It will take some time to complete before showing a successful installation message. You can now see the distribution in the installed section. For another OS, repeat the process. This is what it looks like when I installed a copy of Ubuntu and Fedora. Step 6 Next time I boot through the USB, I get the option of choosing either of the distributions. You can add as many distros as you want and your USB storage allows. For removing a distro, select it from the list and click on Uninstall Distro. Final WordsMultiBootUSB really looks handy for installing multiple Linux distribution on a USB stick. With just a few clicks.

Getting started with the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)
Oroshi replied to anyweb's topic in Linux News
lol i posted this link and mention about WSL in your post under PowerShell. I personally have not test it yet.. i wonder if it is stable? let me know -
Introduction The Windows Subsystem for Linux lets developers run Linux environments, including most command-line tools, utilities, and applications directly on Windows, unmodified, without the overhead of a virtual machine. You can... Choose your favorite Linux distributions from the Windows Store. Run common command-line utilities such as grep, sed, awk, etc. Run Bash shell scripts and Linux command-line applications including: Tools: vim, emacs, tmux Languages: Javascript/node.js, Ruby, Python, C/C++, C# & F#, Rust, Go, etc. Services: sshd, MySQL, Apache, lighttpd Install additional Linux tools using the distribution's built in package manager (apt-get, for example). Invoke Windows applications from the Linux console. Invoke Linux applications on Windows. So let's see how this works, for this guide I tested this on a Windows 10 Insider Preview build version 10.0.17661.1001, however all you need to test this is any version of Windows 10 from Fall Creators Update (or later), and that means any version after Windows 10 1703. Step 1. Add the WSL feature In Windows Control Panel, select Programs and Features, select Turn Windows features on or off. Scroll down to Windows Subsystem for Linux, and enable it. Reboot when prompted. Step 2. Open the Microsoft Store and search for Linux Step 3. Select a Linux Distro in the Apps list Select a Linux Distro in the apps list or click on Show All to see all available Step 4. After selecting a Linux Distro, click on Get Step 5. Pin to start or Launch After it is installed, you'll get a toast notification stating it's installed and ask you to Launch or Pin to Start. If you choose Pin to Start the Distro will be listed in your start menu. Step 6. Launch the Distro On first launch you'll see the Distro is installing If you get "Installation Failed! Error: 0x8007019e", then make sure you've completed Step 1. After installing the Distro, you'll be prompted to enter a username and password and it's done ! it even has vi !

Hello Folks, They may be possible to replace the Wayland from Xorg. Fedora already start using Wayland. more information can be found on: https://wayland.freedesktop.org I am currently runs Fedora 28. I find Wayland is much faster than xorg and much smoother, only downside that you may not be able to install driver such as nVidia etc.. In the future they may bring out the driver for it. I have not test any gaming with Wayland yet due to lack of time lol. When I get around with it, I can give the update.
