Well GO FIGURE. Before I forget. Im running an Asrock B550 mobo w 32 gb ram cl16 @ 3600, Ryzen 7 5700X, Radeon RX 6600 GPU, 1 1tb inland m.2 gen4, 1 1tb (name I forget) gen4 m.2. Intel AX200 wifi card, Kernal 5.19.0 64bit Kubuntu. I spun up the "LIVE" thumb drive and clicked on "Try", clicked on...

Hi all. Kind of a newbie here. I Flashed Kubuntu to a thumb drive and boot up an hour ago. I usually like to connect to wifi and then do the install. When I look for wifi it does not show any networks to connect to. I have 2 different wifi's, a 2.4 and a 5g and neither show up. In fact there are...

I have dabbling w linux distros for a bit now. Tried quite a few. Did some VM installs as well but really hav'nt learned much about really managing my system. Its Open Source man. freedom to do as you choose with your stuff. With that said, I would really like to learn how to use the Terminal...

if the key strokes for your password don't show up try typing them anyway and hit enter.

You are absolutely right, and I did. I went with Manjaro. Debian 10 works fine and has a wifi step in setup that works fine. Debian 11 is not there yet.

Some of us do pay attention to that man behind the curtain. :cool:

That is the firmware I had downloaded from Intels sight but couldnt copy it anywhere. Permission denied. I never read anything about a blob. I had the same problem trying to install Debian 11.0 The Debian installer said I was missing a list of wifi firmwares like and including -46.ucode and...

Yes. I could be wrong but I think its been right in front of me the whole time. The kernal in Q4OS is 4.19 and when I go to Intels web site for the Linux drivers my AX200 wifi card need at least 5.4 or something like that. My wifi card isnt supported in Q4OS. Bummer. I must say though that the...

I ran a live usb of Q4OS and liked it so i installed it. I cant find a setting that detects my wireless choices at all. I had to connect to my cell phone hotspot to get internet and of course it was "dial up" slow. As I speak I am on Kubuntu (like it!) which i am running along side windows 10. I...

Just installed Q4OS in my VM. Looks pretty good so far. I think I might like this one quite a bit.

I feel stupid now. "Sudo rm recup_dir*" done. After several different combo's of this command failed.

I recently used Photorec Testdisk to recover some files from a 5 TB portable drive. It left several hundred recup_dir files in my home directory and I cant get rid of them no matter how hard I try i just get "access denied" in some way or other. I was able to copy them to another drive. I no...

I'm sure you have seen this question many times b4. Its a newbie question and I'm a Newbie( to linux ). I'm running Mint 20 and an AMD based system and everything is working quite smoothly except when I try to get root in the terminal. Anytime it asks for my password (the same one I use to log...

I second "Condobloke". Im new to linux and installed Mint alongside Win 10 , on WI-Fi and it works right out the gate. I am running some fairly new software as well, no problems. Every time I boot to Mint i just say Ahhhhhh. The freedom my friend. I will keep my widows OS as well. I can backup...

OK. I pulled the drive out and installed Solus on the second drive. For fun I put my main M.2 drive in an external enclosure that looks like a jumbo USB drive with a cable for Type C and a cable for USB 3.2 . Keep in mind that Linux Mint was installed after Windows but modified in the efi...

Good idea opening my box but... I would have to remove the Graphics Card to get to main M.2, pull it, put back grahics card, boot and then repeat the process putting things back the way they were (yawn), but ill get to it soon.

So I looked into efibootmgr. Installed it to Mint ( which shows up in my Bios boot options as Ubuntu TWICE ) and Thanx to a "linuxbabe" link in google search I also learned how to change the boot order. That was quite interesting. Now it boots directly to Windows and my "F11" will give me the...

Ill start w saying I am quite new to linux and, on the side trying to learn more about it while studying for Comptia A+. I have been building windows PC's for about 15 years or so. You dont know how much you dont know until you start to study and see how much you dont know. (lol) I recently...

A fun find. After doing a fresh install of Win 10 on another drive I was able to go into the bad drive and retrieve all my stuff. I then did a long format of that drive and cloned the current drive back to my original drive. I then installed Mint on the same drive w windows (this I really like)...
