Previously on: Welcome to /fglt/ - Friendly GNU/Linux Thread. Users of all levels are welcome to ask questions about GNU/Linux and share their experiences.
*** Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly GNU/Linux Thread. ***
Before asking for help, please check our list of resources[*].
If you would like to try out GNU/Linux you can do one of the following: 0) Install a GNU/Linux distribution of your choice in a Virtual Machine using VirtualBox or other software made for this puporse for safety purposes. 1) Use the Live ISO (if your distribution of choice has one) to boot directly into the GNU/Linux distribution without installing anything, that way, you can get to experience the GNU/Linux operating system without installing it. 2) Dual boot the GNU/Linux distribution of your choice along with Windows or macOS, this is recommended if you want to know more about the GNU/Linux operating system. 3) Go balls deep and replace everything with GNU/Linux.
hahaha This is the best start to a fglt ive seen in months oh fuck

>top >not htop What is wrong with you arch babby?
Jack Hernandez
Holy fuck, why is it going so fast?
Sebastian Hall
>prefers younger, less used, less tested version of top >hates arch nice brain, debian babby How's that career in QA?
Luke Anderson
>scrot Why? Usless extra package. Use ffmpeg, imagemagick, pleb.
Parker Peterson
Debian users have declared war on Arch users I think. Must be something to do with htop crashing on them.
Bentley Gutierrez
>htop Why? Usless extra package. Use top, ps, pleb.
Jeremiah Foster
Arch shitposter I think it is because windows 10 stops being free now. It was just as fast when it released last year and all the refugees came here.
Aaron Gonzalez
meanwhile no1 posts output for fear of DE bloat being recognized >inb4 photoshopped output
Samuel Ramirez
Guess I have to fall in with my deb-bros.
Brody Hughes
People tend to install programs other people install.
Matthew Collins
that explains all the debian users in here
Leo Edwards
Please avoid using the term “photoshop” as a verb, meaning any kind of photo manipulation or image editing in general. Photoshop is just the name of one particular image editing program, which should be avoided since it is proprietary. There are plenty of free programs for editing images, such as the GIMP.
Caleb Wright
I think it's the other way around.
Camden Sullivan
take a look >
Michael Evans
>actually use debian sid with dwm and posting from surf >not gonna post it to trigger the archfag
Aiden Howard
So if I'm using GIMP I'm gimping my image?
Charles Lopez
Does greasemonkey scripts or css styles work with surf?
Matthew Watson
sorry Mr Stallman. I wrote a paper about you in 5th grade. I see others have not moved on.
Lincoln Lopez
>greasemonkey scripts Didn't that shit die off years ago? Honestly would like to know
Kevin Perez
userscripts definitely died, though, right?
Kevin Carter
I love it when people like you think their jokes are new or original.
Kayden Morales
>blah, blah, arch problem, blah, blah >"Dude, Arch is for advanced users" >"No it's not, there's a noob corner and it only takes thirty minutes to install >what os should I install >"DUDE INSTALL ARCH >is debian good >"FUCK DEBIAN MAN THAT HAS UNITY" >"INSTALL ARCH" >"BY THE WAY DID I MENTION THAT ARCH IS THE BEST DISTRO?" >totally not the same guy samefagging and anti-shilling Debian
What a great thread you got there.
Dominic Smith
I love it when people waste posts on meaningless Sup Forums-style retorts. How about that Arch Linux, though? Good, right?
Ryan Johnson
I only use css modifications, and they work fine (and the save location is nice). But it crashes a lot so maybe I will go back to ff aurora.
Zachary Cox
I'd say about half of those are me. The rest are some other genius. Nice attempt, though. How's unity working for you? Post top/htop output? Whatever you prefer.
Josiah Walker
Dude unity doesn't even work on anything other than buntu, all attempts to make it work on other distros stopped years ago. Stop your bullshit and let this thread in peace.
Luis Wright
Hey guise, looking real friendly in here. Anyone got advice for moving from Debian to Arch? I think they're winning this one but I'm too afraid of the install process to try it.
Owen Sanchez
To war.
Caleb Gonzalez
where's that top output debro don't worry, I'm on your side.
Ian Howard
There's nothing to win.
Gabriel Bailey
Installing arch is easy, the beginner guide is okay. Be aware though, the community is shit and they don't even have separate repos for free/nonfree.
Caleb Howard
That's not advice. Really, please help. I've been stuck on this whole partitioning thing. I didn't have to do anything to get my debian system up, so I'm just feeling really confused. This is supposed to be a friendly thread guise...
Liam Williams
Yeah, that's true. That's part of why I've stuck with debian. They really make it so that I don't have to do anything but copy paste from the first google search. Why isn't arch like that?
What's the simplest load balancer/reverse proxy I can set up on my Linux web server? I don't actually have a significant load, but I want to have web apps from multiple servers (Node.js and Glassfish) available through the same domain on port 80.
Basically I want a user going to mydomain.com/App1 to get sent to a page hosted on Glassfish and a user going to mydomain.com/App2 to get sent to a Node.js-hosted app.
Or is there a better way to do this?
Jaxson Cooper
Ubuntu is derived from Debian. Their differences are marked, but typically people see Debian as a stable, effortless-to-maintain distro, and Ubuntu as a completely user-friendly, even more stable, even more bloated distro. Does that help?
Comes back to the community part I think. It's still a bit slow and you needed a phone number last time I tried, but I am monitoring it as a potential telegram alternative. Vector is there as well but even buggier.
Henry Morris
AWS load-balancers are very friendly for Debian users. All you have to do is click, click clickity click.
Thomas Hughes
>Unless you have opted out, we will also send your keystrokes as a search term to productsearch.ubuntu.com and selected third parties so that we may complement your search results with online search results from such third parties including: Facebook, Twitter, BBC and Amazon. Canonical and these selected third parties will collect your search terms and use them to provide you with search results while using Ubuntu.
It's worse than I thought. I know it's disabled now, but the fact that things like this are installed on a GNU/Linux distro by default...
Oliver Cook
Why OpenSuse is not popular?
Noah Price
Right! Community! That's what I love about Debian. I don't even have to think! Ha! Now can you help me get rid of my dependencies? I don't like them because they make me stop installing runescape, and I'm pretty sure arch doesn't even have a runescape client because I googled it once: fucking cummunity more like over their! hahahahaha
Camden Rodriguez
People don't like the logo.
Anthony Bell
Isn't that only for their EC2? I have my own server at home.
Ryan Sullivan
Yeah you should really switch to debian. EC2 is great for Ubuntu. They have free tier services if you use an ubuntu AMI so I can be homeless and keep sucking dick and using debian all i want! Join me, won't you?
Parker Collins
Lol
Elijah Foster
What lol
Kevin Jenkins
Is this a new meme.
I'm trying out HAProxy at the moment.
Colton Morgan
I thought it was pretty funny too. Man it's late here. I better stop derailing these threads.
Check your home directory for a file called ~/.bash_history, if it's there, you're infected by a keylogger.
Justin Adams

Cheap thinkpad to ssh -x into your real computer or a dell xps 13 dev
Jason Campbell
Not them but sending them resources for making stallmemes seems like a friendly thing to do.
Charles Allen
>dell xps 13 dev really want that one, too bad i'm out of funds.
shit! it's a big file too! looks like it is referenced in this .bashrc file too, better get rid of that one too
Jack Wright
getting real tired of this canned response.
who is going to make /fglt/ great again, so it isn't such a hugbox
Easton Perry
Install 4chanX.
Xavier Watson
Anyone running linux on a Macbook Air atm? if so, what distro?
Tyler Collins
sudo service whoopsie stop Just in case.
Caleb Diaz
So, need some help with KVM. I recently stumbled upon some Pokemon Go Bots and really wanted to try to see how they worked and etc. Since they only work on Windows (console) I decided to create a Windows VM using KVM and everything works fine. Now I wanted to use Nox App Player, but every time I open it it says my Graphic Card is out dated. I noticed the KVM is using a generic graphic card so my question is: How do I use my Host GPU on my Guest?
Benjamin Smith
search the web "gpu passthrough" good luck
Jacob Martin
Do you think that if I used VirtualBox it would be easier to do this?
Dominic Rogers
what is the best distro for a i5 8gb ram laptop?
Camden Murphy
Usually not. Literally any >best The one I am using
Tyler Howard
Nope, I'm not even sure virtualbox supports it.
Nathaniel Diaz
i'm using ubuntu gnome and i'm not entirely happy with it, having performance issues
Aiden Adams
Disable animations in gnome. Should be fine. Otherwise install some more minimal DE or WM. You could switch distros but performance is not a reason for doing that.
Nolan Taylor
Time to kill myself then.
Jose Hill
Try doing it in winecli/wine
Jaxon Ramirez
Well, I guess I could give Wine a try, thanks user.
Tyler Evans
wineconsole
Joseph Turner
No, you're simply editing your photo.
Brody Price
Or manipulating an image.
Ian Young
Fedora has some great fucking wallpapers, had to have a few on my non-Fedora machines.
Ryan Smith
They should be available with a libre licence, just copy them to your other machines.
Isaiah Ross
oh yeah, didn't even check license, copied them already.
