Blog about some various Linux stuff (sfalken.tech) en
Just wanted to drop there here, in case anybody finds it useful. I started doing some blogging, mostly with the intention of archiving how in the hell I've done things on Linux, in the past, so I know where to find them the next time I need to do them. There will probably be other stuff there, with time, some of it not linux...

The Maintainer Of The NVIDIA Open-Source "Nouveau" Linux Kernel Driver Resigns (phoronix.com) en
Hours after posting a large patch series for enabling the Nouveau kernel driver to use NVIDIA's GSP for improving the support for RTX 20/30 series hardware and finally enabling accelerated graphics support on RTX 40 'Ada Lovelace' GPUs, the Red Hat maintainer has resigned from his duties.
OpenSUSE seeks a Leap replacement, but will distro community rise to the challenge? (zdnet.com) en
Will it be Slowroll or Linarite -- or nothing at all? Programmers are conflicted about where the venerable Linux distro should go from here.

Stupid Beginner Question: What Linux Desktop Environment works well or has an output mode for NTSC/PAL resolution? (kbin.social) en
Yes I am thinking of using my little TV (composite AV input only (from an HDMI-to-composite dongle)) as my second display. Going command line-only would be ok if I don't have a choice, but then I watch miniDV and VCD footages sometimes. My Mint machine was broken so i didn't have a chance to test that. So not sure if it could go...
A distro and desktop environment recommendation for an old laptop (Read all of it, please.) (kbin.social) en
'sup? So, I am a beginner that has an old Samsung laptop from 2013 with an i3 4005U, a GeForce 710M, 500GB HDD (I will probably upgrade it to an SSD, but not for now.), 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3L RAM (the same for the HDD, will probably upgrade to 8GB some time.). It currently has Windows 10 Home but Linux is probably lighter (right?)...
Is Nobara tied in with all the Redhat Drama? (kbin.social) en
Hello Everyone, I was planning to get a hard drive to install Linux in to use for daily driving. I was looking at Nobara for a bit but after the RedHat drama, should I still be using it? or should I look at something else for the time being? Thank you.

Open source developers - have the recent moves by RedHat changed your opinion of using non-GPL licenses? (kbin.social) en
The new license terms for RHEL are structured to stop subscribers from exercising their rights under the GPL. For now they are still providing source code albeit in a less convenient form, but technically they only need to do this for GPL licenses packages and they could remove code for BSD /MIT / Apache licensed packages....
Reminder that RedHat makes A LOT of money already. The results of the 2019 fiscal year show that RedHat spends twice as much money on ads and sales people than on developers. (businesswire.com) en
Our subscriptions mostly pay for the salesmen and the ads. They sell ads first, IT second. So I'm not gonna cry for RedHat. The image of the poor developers working in a cave, struggling to make money is only in our mind. They had a perfectly functional model but decided to sabotage some of it to try to squeeze even more money....

CentOS Stream for HPC work? (kbin.social) en
I've been running an HPC system for a science group for a while now and have built a couple of different systems based on common HPC infrastructures (ROCKS or Open HPC). These have been built on top of the rebuilt RHEL distros (mostly CentOS), but I don't really need the level of stability that these provide and would actually...
