    VNC into Ubuntu from Windowz

    I have no problem VNCing into my laptop near TV from my Arch Linux using Reminna. On Windows 7 I tried a whole bunch of programs with no luck, it says that security level is too high, try to lower it on your linux machine. Which, I have no clue how to do in Gnome. But anyway, I need a program...

    LD_LIBRARY_PATH is empty

    Strange things are happening. While I was doing stuff around house and waiting for response here, the problem fixed itself. Now stuff is starting correctly in crossover. I have no clue why it happened.

    LD_LIBRARY_PATH is empty

    Boy, I'm not understanding something. I have problem where crossover (which worked fine by the way) not starting because it can't find some libraries, which are located in their appropriate 32 and 64 bit directories as standard on Arch. Now I do have some files in LD config directory, but even...

    Black screen after plymouth

    Yea so, Arch with optimus-switch, system working perfectly. I have dm-crypt encrypted /home, thus is the reason why I want a plymouth so I get a nice password prompt. I mean, it's fine without plymouth, but nicer with it. Here is the problem: I installed plymouth as per arch wiki, and when I...

    Tell me about full disk encryption in Linux

    How does full disk encryption is setup in Linux? Do you absolutely have to set it up during installation? Or can it be setup after installation? If you need distros, I'm looking at arch and gentoo as my final distro choices. How about dual booting with Windows? For exxample, what if you...

    linux mint lagging.. keeps lagging.

    Distro hop. You have an older celeron with only 4 gig ram. Order more ram used from ebay or aliexpress. For you ideal would be xubuntu 18 lts. Xfce with lightdm is perfect.. Also, I’m assuming you have garbage rescue laptop, check your hdd, preferably with windows.

    Why doesn't ACPI report voltage?

    You don’t understand my delema. Same exact laptop, Fedora shows battery voltage, Ubuntu does not. As a matter of fact if I run sensors detect in Fedora I get same exact output, but xfce sensors app shows battery voltage.... So I don’t know what gives.

    Why doesn't ACPI report voltage?

    Sorry, it's a link to nowhere. I did read that article. Perhaps I missed something? I did run sensors detect and answered YES to everything and config file was written. But all it did detect is cores, as shown in my previous post.

    Why doesn't ACPI report voltage?

    Point me to the right direction. I used to have Fedora with XFCE and it showed voltage in sensors plugin. Now I switched distros to Ubuntu, and sensors plugin does not show voltage. I even tried to compile a brand new version from github and nothing special about it, didn't fix the problem...

    How do I run a windows program in Linux

    Sounds to me, vic, you are trying to recreate windows. That will lead you to failure. Linux is many things, from ordinary desktop to cyber weapon. If you want to learn things around, not sure about your distro, it should be manjaro or ubuntu. Further more, fastest way to linux is hacking...

    Suggest a distro plz

    I gave Manjaro a go. Let me tell you. It it wasn’t for CUDA I would stay on it. It’s amazing and officially I say this— Fedora is nothing but a buggy old testing ground and whoever is using it haven’t seen anything else. Manjaro is the cheese. However. My hardware wants clang 4 and llvm 4...
