    Apologies for the above post. While most of it stands true. I did learn a lot last night. I discovered iDRAC and how to use it. Then discovered the ipmitool and executed the following ipmitool -I lanplus -H 192.168.1.9 -U user -P password raw 0x30 0x30 0x02 0xff 00x1E Crysis averted and wife...

    If you want Arch but don't wanna deal with CLI installation

    I'm confused. Is $ archinstall complicated? I haven't done a manual install since the archinstall command was implemented. Takes me about 20 seconds after executing archinstall before I'm walking away to grab a cup of coffee or take a leak while it installs everything for me. Included my DE of...

    I'd like to do you a favor before I get started here and simply disclaim that this post is mostly about getting some things off my chest and venting out some frustrations while simultaneously exposing myself to those more experienced than I with subtle hopes some kinds soul may have mercy on me...

    NOTE: Yeahhhhh "figure out how to get obs-studio-browser to work" note has been there forever lol. I used to have it working; but since my last system wipe & reinstall, I've had issues getting ffmpeg-obs to install, thus dependency issues I'm unwilling to troubleshoot at this time.

    I'm not well versed in proxies either. Looks like I got my own homework cut out for me lol! Thankfully I've learned to enjoy the research. Thanks!

    I think my only concern here is that it sounds the schooling table would restrict web access entirely. His curriculum is online based so that wouldn't work unfortunately; though I could put the latter note to use to keep track of his internet habits; kids ugh. He's resourceful, but only as far...

    I know the title gives off shady vibes at first glance, but hear me out. I started homeschooling my kids this year; and my oldest has been difficult in getting him to do his homework ethically. After thinking about the issue, I remembered that as a kid (back when apple had those fruity colored...

    Is there any way to change pacman's colors in the search results?

    You can edit /etc/pacman.conf. # Misc options #UseSyslog #Color I would assume that is all you need change to achieve what you're looking for.

    I looked into it this AM after reading up on this post. Definitely going to check it out for studies sakes for sure though. I admire the fact that it's dedicated to a co-creator as well; very respectable.

    Not being familiar with RHEL systems outside of my studies; I'm intrigued. Is Oracle like the Microsoft of Linux Distro's or something? Sounds like Rocky may be my choice to replace the CentOS i've been using for my course lol

    Here's to hoping! But if you get to know me, you'll come to a point that if you see my Avatar, you'll likely know there's a novel long post involved haha! I've always loved Aussies :P. I'm a bit culturally ignorant, heck I don't even leave my house so I hardly know my own culture lol! But I'm...

    As stated in my OP ;) Truth is as I see it; all distro's are identical barring syntax. So long as you add whatever repository you want, they're all the same. I've used Debian, Ubuntu, Pop!, Manjaro, Garuda, Mint, Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, Kali, Parrot, and in the end they're all pretty much...

    Oh I know lol, but then it wouldn't be authentic lol ;) yeah I planned on getting both as I can. Right. The course I'm taking is focused on CentOS (RHEL fork by RHEL kind of like Fedora, RHEL runs it all). so thankfully by the time I"m done with my course i'll be pretty well versed in...

    Best I can anyway. She'd of wanted me to strive to establish myself in doing what I love. Right up until her last days, she was encouraging me to keep going. So I'ma do just that. Going to push until I don't have to worry about money anymore, and can live out my life doing what I enjoy.

    Gamer Soundoff

    I'm unsure as to how anything I stated may suggest that I'm unable to play games on Linux. Quite the contrary, my Arch Linux system is specifically built to do just that; play video games ;). I play everything from Red Dead online and Halo infinite, to State of Day 2, Days Gone, Horizon Zero...

    I stand with you on this. I go against the grain of the "AMD's been open source longer!". To me, that doesn't matter. I've got both AMD and Nvidia GPU systems and my Nvidia rigs just seem to do better. Then again, I use proprietary drivers. Can't get Wayland, or Open Source drivers to ever work...
