What are Flatpaks? | How to install & permissions
Просмотров 27 тыс.3 года назад
Flatpaks have many great advantages. They can be sandboxed to protect your system. They usually carry newer versions of software than repos. And they are distro independent, which means they run as they should on any distro that supports Flatpaks. In this video I'll go over how they work, how to install them, and how to change what permissions they have. Flathub : www.flathub.org Consider suppo...

Using FOSS in Linux (or not)
Просмотров 6 тыс.3 года назад
I see too often people getting talked down to for not using FOSS, or for using blobs/proprietary software, bloat, a certain desktop environment or distro. This toxicity needs to stop. But most importantly, if you're one of the people who have been treated this way, you've done NOTHING wrong. Other than breaking actual laws, you can do anything you want with your system. It's YOUR system, so don...

Yes of course. Just needed a break
thankyou
You are the absolute best, you have really helped me out here
I appreciate that!
@@Doriandotslash I have one issue though, I recovered my data in my internal hard drive, but when I am trying to back it up using an external hard drive I get the following message: "error while copying, input/output error" and the process of backing up the files never completes. Is there another way to backup the data so I don't lose it again? Thanks again.
This maybe the most important linux related video on youtube. Full stop.
amazing tutorial :o now I feel more alive :D
Dorian Sir Linux roc's ubuntu focal fossa
AppImages are not installed into a "loose file system". They are attached to the Linux file system, no installing needed.
This is probably a function of my age (80). I'm seriously thinking of abandoning Windows and move to Linux. However, after listening this comprehensive description of the Linux structure, fear is setting in. Probably the only software I'd be installing would be LibreOffice to replace MS Office, an email handler to replace MS Office Outlook, and then Firefox as my browser. Where would my various LibreOffice program segments be stored?
Thank you!
Hi, I had a 2 TB internal HDD with a SINGLE partition for just data whose master file table (MFT) got corrupted for reasons unknown. After a while, of connecting and disconnecting, the drive formatted into probably two FAT/FAT32 partitions of just 500+ MB and 500+ MB. Later, whenever I tried to re-connect this drive, I used to get BSOD "Unexpected kernel mode trap" error in any Windows OS on HDD or USB like HBCD PE. I logged in using a Linux distro and deleted (formatted?) all the partitions using G-Parted. Is it possible to get back the SINGLE partition the disk had before these new two FAT partitions? I tried with MiniTools, but did not get the partition size that matches near 2 TB, as disk was almost full with just 20 GB free space.
Linux nerds would argue over what a folder named "etc" stands for.
If you're moving from Windows (with its A, B, C, D, etc partition assignments you really DO need to watch this. This is just one reason that linux is so great. You can install a distro to ANYWHERE.. not just the C:\ drive! And yeah /home/you or /home/somebodyElse can be confusing at first but its so incredibly elegant that you'll quickly wonder WHY Windows doesn't use a gigantic "tree" like linux! You know to be honest I don't even know where some of my partitions are physically located. But I do know where all my DATA is (well maybe NOT the actual physical location but I don't need to know as long as I can back it up to where I KNOW the backup physically is!). Yeah I back my data to removable hot swappable drives. BTW.. Do NOT install / (root) or /home to SSD. You can install /backup or whatever there but NOT your major directories. Yeah always assign those partitions to HDD, okay? Lastly yeah I know.. this kinda incredible customizable stuff can breed confusion to the linux newbie but after awhile you'll realize it becomes second nature. An example is that linux has more than one file manager.. dolphin, nautilus, nemo are all file managers and you can generally use them all in a specific distro. however ubuntu uses nautilus by default while mint uses nemo... stuff like that can become confusing as well. Finally there's a a whole slew of screen grabs... shutter, spectacle, screenshot to name a few. I sometimes use two of them to grab stuff by copying one from another! Yeah Windows has just ONE and the last time I saw a friend using it I told him that thing really sucks! I mean you couldn't even copy a menu or the mousepointer with it!
great instructional
Use Arch if you want to work with Linux. Avoid it if you want Linux to (do) work.
and when you DO want to start using the terminal, I have found that a program like Nala is a lot easier to read and work with than apt.

Best testdisk tutorial I found on youtube. Nice work.
I can't install systemback please help
Thank you. Exactly what i was looking for
Best comprhensive guide , helped me alot
This is not Linux; it's "Userland", modified 1970s Unix code commands. RTFM!
I would be interested to see how this operating system works with wine for windows applications. ❤ I subscribed to your channel because of this video.
Dorian. If you are still monitoring this, it seems this is still a valid solution for me. If you still use this process, of if not but remember what you did, did you create the directory structure on the 1tb drive or did the download of the packages create that structure. If you manually did so, what steps did/do you take to create this structure. Later
Nevermind. I see it creates the directory structure once downloads begin....
Best guide video in whole RUclips.. 😇
It's really unnecessary. More than half of these directories/partitions are both superfluous and ambiguous. 5 abstractions of bin/sbin and you'll have to read the conf to find out where anything actually went. It's a symptom of a fundamental design and standards issue and literally one of the biggest draws to BSD tbqh. I'd sooner go back to DOS than subject myself to present day linux.
So , 1- Appimages go anywhere. 2- Anything installed using package manager yay,aur go in separate folders. 3- Anything from disciver, flathub or discover gets separate folders. 4- Libraries are haywire. ( flathub will be in Libraries folders and applications inside it ,and same with others.) Or they end up in home filder. Who made this ?
Hope you're doing well bro, your guides are brilliant.
i got bored and changed my operating system to ubuntu on a whim. Was confusing but was easily picked up as i thrown myself into the deepend and HAD to after wiping my hard drive. It's complicated at a glance but I can promise you with the right mindset it is very easy to pick up !!!!
Amen. Wish we coud do a distro and make it even simpler... like MAc os classic 9
7 years late, but, is it possible to do this with linux arch as well?
I'm from 2024, and we now have a package manager app that exits the config for us. So I gause the best way to explain it is a happy union between arch's rolling release nature and debian's stability. With a bit of gentoo DNA.
No es que importe lo que yo opine, pero excelente video. Muchas gracias por tu tiempo
