I wish some autistic user would make a gtk2/gtk3 with similar appearance. I liked the old blocky style of win2k era UIs.

I just discovered that GNOME is already working on GTK4.
Can someone bitchslap these retards.
Elijah Baker
they surely will fix the filepicker in v4
Dominic Ross
Well one thing for sure GTK3 won't get the icon preview.
GTK 3.22 is the last GTK3 version and is now considered "on life support".

that's /Doktor/ shill to you, asswipe

Don't let me call the cops.
Hunter Ortiz
Yes. The enormously important question is - how inconsistent is it with GTK3 applications.
Jaxson Williams
>Don't let me Okay. I forbid you from calling the cops.
Ayden Mitchell
that shit doesn't even run, kek checked, this
Caleb Walker
Since GTK3 won't update anymore it's now viable to make a patch that will introduce such feature, similar to what happened with GTK2
Jack Gray
;_; touché.

You'd also need to maintain that thing, adding a new logo isn't enough.

I have a problem with the nouveau drivers freezing (within, at most, a few minutes) when using KDE, but I want to install openSUSE with KDE. Does this method seem sound to you?
>install using text-based installer >deselect the nouveau driver during the installation and only install the vesa driver >install nvidia driver according to en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers after completing the installation
I think this should work, but my concern is that the vesa driver might not work with my hardware for whatever reason. Does anyone know if there's a list of cards out there which is works with?
Jaxson Thomas
that I can't tell you, since I never bothered learning which of my applications use GTK2, GTK3, or something else.
Nothing I use looks out of place though. That screenshot is from Debian stable but I have testing on my laptop, the only thing that broke was that terminal windows (and nothing else) don't use the correct scrollbar. I haven't bothered looking into that since I'm gonna reinstall that machine when stretch gets officially released.
James Wright
adding a license to stuff you post online isn't a bad idea btw everything you post without a free license is automatically copyrighted and legally nobody is allowed to use it
Alexander Hughes
I guess I'll wait for the release of stretch too and then GTK themes won't matter since I'm going to switch from Xfeces to LXQt anyways.

That's how copyright works, user. Look it up.

Everything you post is property of the website you are posting it on, they own what you post on their site,dosent mean its illegal
Christian Jackson
serious question. how are you supposed to know if someone violated the GPL if the source is closed?
Asher Campbell
you're forgetting the part where copyrights are only enforced if one party wants to sue the other party and can prove that it owns the copyright, that the other party infringed on that copyright, etc. which basically means you have to have at least twice as much money to spend on laywers as the other guy on top of a certain minimum time and resources it would take to even start the process
Nolan Reed
Well if nobody checks, then you don't. But if someone investigates, it can be given away by object code and function names that are identical to whats in the GPL software. That's easily looked at in a debugger.

Anyone had to deal with something like this before? Is this something I have to change in the DE (xfce) or something I have to change in my touchpad configuration file (70-synaptics)? If it's the touchpad configuration, how do I change it?
Dylan Ward
Can you be more vague?
Tyler Cruz
There are multiple ways, from checking the way the application makes API calls to actually reverse engineering to get variable names and such. There are of course methods of obfuscating all of this some are more effective other don't make a difference (cause the profile of execution would stay the same).
But you have to ask yourself. As a developer, if you're going to go through all the loops and hoops to steal a piece of GPL code, why not fucking write it yourself especially when you consider that in many years ahead someone by pure accident might discover what you've done and rain FSF lawyers on your head.
And no, noone's going to sue you for copying a function.
Taking a GPL application, changing the name and making it proprietary doesn't make a lot of sense does it? Who's going to pay you if there's a free as in beer (and free as in freedom) version of the thing you're trying to sell with exactly the same features?
Chinks are known for license violations but to these people the concept of law apparently doesn't exist, so why would software licensing be any different.
Cisco however learned the bad way about it and had to pay up.
Jason Nguyen
cisco only paid so stinky stallman would stop picketing their main hq
Its no more then a slap on the wrist and no one really cares about your puny little letter
Jaxon Edwards
butthurt cisco shill or I don't know what. The desired effect was achieved. Cisco stopped violating the GPL. No idea what did you expect. Stallman putting their employees in gas chambers?
Bentley Myers
The Archwiki was helpful. amixer -D pulse sset Master toggle does the job.
Jayden Brown
>stopped violating the GPL No,they just do it better so they dont get caught,much like any other company
GPL is a joke,and only favors users raping devs, it dosent protect the devs at all, and no one should use gpl for anything serious
Alexander Gonzalez
I will as soon as they release version 1.0
Ethan Hernandez
Right.

Doubt it's a Sup Forumsedditor. More probably the guy that comes here and shills for the BSD license every now and then.

I hope you setup DNSSEC and DNSCRYPT while you were playing with it

GPL was never designed to protect the devs, it was designed to protect the users.

Exactly, its a shitty license

What does it even mean for a piece of software to be version 1.0?
Isn't it all relative? Don't they all have different conventions regarding that?
Maybe one program's version increases by 0.5 while another's by 0.01 after an equivalent amount of develpment. By the time program1's at v3.5, program2'd be at v0.07 but they would have equivalently developed features.
How can you compare the extent to which programs are developed by version number?
Nathan Evans
Version 1 is entirely up to the developers goals and standards.
Benjamin Rogers
installing gentoo
Carson Gutierrez
Look up Semantic Versioning.
Not everyone follows it, but it's fairly widespread nowadays
Luis Jenkins
But does it even mean anything?
Adrian Parker
Zypper is probably the best package management tool, I don't even use openSUSE
Thomas Lee
It means the developer has worked on the product to a point where he sees it to be fit for publication.
Juan Gonzalez
Anyone using systemd-boot/bootctl? Is efibootmgr required?
Carter Anderson
I always thought that at least 1.0 was standard to mean it's "ready". Everything lower than 1.0 is like beta or alpha. That was just my understanding though.
Gavin Rivera
But I do.
Hudson Garcia
bash question. I have a script to load certain iptable rules from the "rulefile"list: while read rule; do iptables $rule done < $rulefile
everything works perfectly except for hex string matching rules, for example if the rule in rulefile is: -A CHAIN ... --hex-string '|096c6f63616c686f7374|'
iptables will use this string: '|27096c6f63616c686f737427|'
why?
Michael Reyes
1.0 is the first release. Anything before 1.0 is alpha/beta/whatever
Can someone who does this explain why? What are the benefits? The vanilla kernel is working just fine for me.
Caleb Cruz
>The vanilla kernel is working just fine for me. Then why the fuck are you asking?
A simple google would clear all your doubts
Adrian Edwards
If you are using a vanilla kernel, you compiled it yourself.
Hudson Lee
Use plain efibootmgr and EFISTUB kernel. No systemdboot required :^)
Josiah Russell
Slackware jumped from version 4 to version 7 because Red Hat was pumping out versions really fast back then and they didn't want to seem outdated. They also had a 13.37 release some years ago. Once TeX hit version 3, Knuth started adding digits of pi with every release (3 -> 3.1 -> 3.14 -> 3.141...), with the intention of making pi the actual "official" version number (and probably break all package managers in the process) once TeX has reached the point where no further changes will ever need to be made to it. But yeah, anything before version 1 means the developer does not consider it a finished product suitable for distribution and production use.
Carson Baker
wut? please explain, sounds interesting, how do you boot without bootloader?
Angel Hughes
he could be using Slackware :^) ┙
Connor Carter
oh well, I just googled

How can I make changes to grub? I can't get permission to save it when I open it using GUI stuff. Also, what's the #grub# file? I think it's from when I tried doing: sudo emacs /etc/default/grub
But, I'm not sure. I dont' want to get crazy and start deleting stuff.
Adrian Jenkins
sudo guieditor /etc/default/grub
Mason Green
while read -r rule; do iptables "$rule" done < "$rulefile"
Logan Carter
>serious question. how are you supposed to know if someone violated the GPL if the source is closed?
bit of a late reply since I had the page cached, it can be anything from the dev ripping off the code not changing it at all to parts decompiling or debugging identically to gpl code; you'll find examples of android programs ripping off stuff from github and it's blatantly obvious when everything, including the menus, is exactly the same as the programs on github
the issue is proving someone ripped off code in court, it's basically impossible, if this is a concern for you then using an open source licence isn't the solution
>As a developer, if you're going to go through all the loops and hoops to steal a piece of GPL code, why not fucking write it yourself
because developers and code monkeys are lazy, note all the people who are against the gpl on github projects because they now can't use the software in whatever their work is developing
>GPL was never designed to protect the devs, it was designed to protect the users.
to be fair the gpl does a lot for devs, as linus put it, gpl is great for projects you care about
if anyone makes a fork they're now developing for and contributing to your code base, you get all of that back
>Slackware jumped from version 4 to version 7 because Red Hat was pumping out versions really fast back then and they didn't want to seem outdated.
firefox did this when chrome went to hopping up a major release every few weeks
>If you are using a vanilla kernel, you compiled it yourself.
