    I finally did it. Windows in the trash!

    If your PC isn't super duper Debian might as well be good choice. But it also depends on DE (Desktop Environment) which you install, some consume less resources some more.

    I finally did it. Windows in the trash!

    I'm using VSCode for Linux every day and I would not change it for any other code editor, it's unmatched.

    In need of help for configuring DNS server in Nobara

    I suggest the following DNS servers (both in Switzerland) https://github.com/DigitaleGesellschaft/DNS-Resolver https://www.quad9.net/support/faq/ Respectively: 185.95.218.42 9.9.9.9 In addition you might want to configure encrypted DNS with unbound software, both of those support DNS over TLS.

    @new_vintage According to your output in your post #6 pulseaudio service is disabled. So you might want to enabled it with: systemctl --user enable pulseaudio #Make sure it was enabled with systemctl --user status pulseaudio # If not run and check again sudo systemctl enable pulseaudio And...

    I finally did it. Windows in the trash!

    lol no, you don't miss any games, 90% of Windows games run on Linux just fine. That was my main obstacle not to switch to Linux but things have changed, you can run Windows games in Lutris. (not all but most of them) some require adjusting settings, only few of them don't work at all.

    @f33dm3bits Don't you have to bring connection\interface down prior changing settings?

    I finally did it. Windows in the trash!

    @Freepoorman Congrats on dumping Windows, make sure nostalgia for Windows doesn't make you change your mind. I had nostalgia for the first 2 weeks or so, I believe every Windows convert suffers from same problem after switch. But after some time you realize Linux is the best, you just start to...

    lvdisplay showing wrong size after increasing size of VM disk

    I was talking about root not boot partition. if it's root, and according to your code it is then the only way to do it is from live USB. Also note if your disk is encrypted them my steps won't work, the procedure is different for encrypted LVM's.

    Linux (I use MINT) Browsers and VPNs

    Browsers based on chromium are all from mainstream companies like google, yandex, microsoft etc. I'm not sure about brave. So I'd suggest firefox. And the best VPN is no VPN at all, Tor is safer.

    What next.

    Connecting to internet entirely from command line is fun thing to practice. You'll need to be proficient with ip tool and nmcli tool. And you also want to learn about NetworkManger, systemd-networkd and networking services. You might also want to learn where are networking configuration files...

    Careful using GitHub

    Another way how you could get infected from GitHub (or any other code sharing platform) is by downloading (or cloning) a repo that contains executable files or scripts etc. (I've seen several of such repos so far btw. nothing new) Those executables are not always easy to spot and even in you do...

    Sorry I can't help with password authentication, I always do it with SSH keys for security reasons and the procedure is already known to me unlike other methods.

    Unable to ssh OL 7.8 login

    Btw Yes, you need a SSH key set up on your local system from which you wish to connect to server, do you have one set up? If not I'll give you procedure to make one.

    Unable to ssh OL 7.8 login

    OK, the re are several things you need to check on your server. AuthorizedKeysFile which is .ssh/authorized_keys file should contain public key of your local host from which you connect to server, if the file is empty or if it contains public key not form the host from which you connect to...

    Unable to ssh OL 7.8 login

    Then we can conclude firewall is not interfering with connection and connectivity works, so the error must be somewhere either in your /etc/sshd_config on the server or in ssh_config on your local host. It would be useful if you can post contents of that file from the server if possible? And...

    Unable to ssh OL 7.8 login

    can you ping the server IP and does it respond? If, not, can you ping the switch IP and does it respond? otherwise if server responds with ICMP, please install hping3 to test TCP syn test as follows (I assume your host is debian based) # install the tool sudo apt install hping3 # perform...

    Unable to ssh OL 7.8 login

    any service files when edited require service restart to take effect, did you do this? Indicates connection error probably caused by firewall. in rescue mode firewall might be off and that's why it works. Which firewall do you use?
