  • Unless your company's IT department specifically setup the drives on the local network to be accessible from other OS's then Windows, you won't be able to connect to them, without setting up Samba/CIFS.

    As others have status, if you are allowed to use Linux as a company device, ask your IT department how to access the company stuff. If you are not really allowed and are just doing, you probably won't have access to much that is not a webapp.

  • General Fedora feedback: the discover update app feels lacking here. As a new user, I expect more of a description about what each application/service is as well as a clickable link to read more about the app and the update.

    That's because Discover handles 3 types of updates.

    1. Applications from a "Store". These are the ones you are expecting with descriptions and such.
    2. Packages from the repository of the distro. These are the ones you have listed. They are "technical" package names, not limited to applications. Can also be libraries, dependencies and system stuff.
    3. Firmware. If you have enabled the Linux Firmware option in Discover, you will get presented with special firmware packages.
  • I simply just use the ppd, but my laptop is low power no dgpu anyway.

  • Pretty sure Vivaldi has all of that. And they where on Linux from the start.

  • Best you can do for the battery is turning down the screen brightness to the lowest setting where you can still see what's on the screen. Mine is ususally at 20-30% brightness.

  • Everything still needs to be set in configuration.yaml. right? I see nothing that inidcates that it's possible to set up from the UI yet.

  • It is an Intel NIC, but I don't run debian.

  • Hm. The PSU is the one delivered with the system. And the system is rated to handle this and more. I really hope it's not a bad PSU.

  • I actually have an issue that is similar. My server goes unresponsive/freezes after N hours of uptime. N is a variable, so far meassured between 6 and 72 hours. I tried working around it, by auto-rebooting the server each night. But it still sometimes happen before the 24 hour mark.

    Nothing in logs, so my best option is to auto-reboot at this time. 😆

  • I noticed you left Windows Vista and 8 off the list. :) That's okay, most people want to forget they ever existed.

  • If it only presents SMART information and temperature and such, you don't need that software. Tools like smartctl and lm_sensors provides this.

  • I heard someone did on a toothbrush.

  • I'm usually not a ranting person. But it does happen from time to time. 😉

  • So this is a "don't move my cheese" post?

    I understand the need the vent from time to time, but most people have/create blogs for such things. Maybe it's just time to look for another xmpp client.

  • You also need to make sure all the dependencies are installed. Those are usually listed in a requirements.txt file and can be installed with pip.

  • wall of text crits you for 400 damage

  • Before doing so, though, I wanted to ask if there was any formal policy or rule for the community that could help cut down on thr spam, and if so, what would be most useful for me to do when I see a spam post? That I’d, is the Report button the right tool, is there some other way to let moderators know?

    Rule 7 as stated in the sidebar of this community: "No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports."

    So yes. Use the report tool and downvote it to oblivion.
