Thanks a lot! I am looking forward to continue this Sunday. ❤️

Of course I heard German many times. I am just unable to pronounce any of it because I never had the need to even attempt. I hope this makes sense. I just felt silly if I mispronounced his name.

Yep, you are correct. I have already discussed this with OpenMandriva developers and they agree that it is worth improving the UI for the next new user.

What do you do if something only has a .deb package? Manually adjust the files to fit in?

Also I would try for myself to use Cinnamon DE since I don't like KDE (I have used KDE on SteamOS on steamdeck, SteamOS is not really good for programming so I replaced with Linux Mint 22)

Also got main laptop on Linux Mint 21.3, but open to replacing the boot with OpenMandriva

@@averdadeeumaso4003 I haven't encountered something I couldn't find a .rpm or it wasn't in the repos.

@@averdadeeumaso4003 I tried Cinnamon couldn't get the "spin" I found to boot and installing it from the repos I couldn't load the DE. I prefer Cinnamon also. I imagine with this wave of interest we'll see a lot move in the coming days.

Thanks a lot! That's ... a fourth way to do it, if my count checks-out.

❤️

You're welcome!

Thank you very much for tuning in!

That kinda fits with what I said, doesn't it? If you agree with his worldviews then you can easily follow his teachings. For me ... I don't give a crap about his current political activism. Not that it's bad, it's just that he constantly addresses American citizens exclusively. That is none of my concern so I don't follow along. But his teachings on software freedom - that's the activism that I very much agree with and I will be sad if nobody will carry that torch after he is gone. Free Software is inconvenient enough that it is very easy for big tech to infiltrate our communities. They are in Linux kernel, they are in Gnome, they are in everything now to a varying degree and because they cannot infiltrate GNU they are slowly pushing it out and trying to cancel Free Software Foundation. Richard does not have infinite energy to fight alone and I have never heard of a person who is capable of replacing him.

That's ok. I bet he didn't try to get people who don't share his views fired from their jobs and cancelled. The leftists even tried to cancel him.

OpenMandriva ROCK 6.0 will release very soon so I will check that one out as well after it releases. Why no one talks about OM I don’t know. I am surprised that it is actually good.

Glad you liked it! Please share if you can 🙏

That’s very accurate 😏

I believe that you are correct. I also don’t recollect seeing people talking about it in years. Mainstream talk gets more clicks, I guess? I mean Arch is cool, but I can inject content diversity into this channel 🫡

Lundyke done a video about the distro Rome kde 3 days a go mentioned that it's got good review😊

🫡

I really appreciate your comment. Especially as I worked the entire week to make it. Being testing, streaming, talking to developers, collecting facts, reporting bugs. I think this 35-minute video is the longest ever that I have created, in terms of time investment. As for DNF5, just wait for ROCK 6 to be released and then do your ROME update. As I understand it - OM devs are timing DNF5 to be released at the same time on both.

Thank you kindly! 🙏

Good

This comment is only visible if/when I sort by newest, for some reason. But yeah, a bigger font helps :)

@@LinuxRenaissance Yeah, YT likes often to do that to my comments 🤷‍♂ Thing is, I like my vt(1) console (pre startx) to look the same as my Konsole and Xterm, so I have same color palette (RGB values) for ANSI16 and the same font in all three of them. Some folks are ricing their desktops, I don't have to - I use KDE (just few changes needed to be perfect for me), but I'm spending ridiculous amount of time ricing and unifying looks of console and terminals and syntax highlighters and on colorizing CLI 🤦‍♂ Oh, don’t let me start on use of italic fonts for \e[3m 🤣 Only thing that I'm jealous of that Linux has and we don’t is proper frame buffer in console, yet I don't see many Linux people care for their cons? 🤔

@vmisev when stuff “just works” people tend to not notice what they have 😆 and prefer to focus on the negatives

Yeah, I reinstall stuff often 💀

While Mac OS and Windows are just "tools" for "users", Linux comes in multiple hundreds of different variations which offer a whole range of ways to be "just a user" or a "full-on developer/programmer" who will add to the whole Linux ecosystem. It's the nature of Free Software (freedom, not gratis). It is an interesting world for me. Started in 1997 😆

I am glad you found it good. Thank you very much.

Why, what's the time?

😏

Do I need to make that a separate video? It’s easy, you simply go to manual partitioning and you chose NOT to format the /home partition.

There will be. Thank you.

It felt a bit sluggish, TBH. But, a part of this might have been due to default settings which intentionally delay window focusing when I move my mouse. The rest felt okay, but I did not give it too much thought as I want to keep my opinion as uninfluenced as possible towards the actual v1.0 release. System76 seems determined to ship a "proper" v1.0 to their customers so I will reserve my opinion for the version which they will label as "finished product".

It is a difficult topic indeed. I grew up poor just as Torvalds did and we both approached the topic of software from the money perspective, at first, while Stallman has had a completely different idea which partially aligned with the issue of being poor and not being able to afford software. Nowadays when I fully understand GPL and the whole idea behind four freedoms I definitely agree with it, but it is very challenging to implement this in our actual lives as completely as Stallman does it. I believe that he is THE only person in the entire world who is FreeSoftware absolutist. Everyone else may be a supporter of the FreeSoftware movement, but nobody is really able to reject proprietary software 100% from their lives.

I don’t know what “SoMe” is and what “BMC” is, but I understood the general sentiment. Thank you 🙏

@@LinuxRenaissance SoMe is acronyme for "social media" (I have now googled it, and seems that it is not commonly used outside of Norway "my home contry". My bad not checking it sooner.), and BMC is the acronyme for "business modell canvas". Used not only by businesses as the name applyes, but also to help define the purpose of a project or product, and what value it gives the targeted "customer", or audiens in your case 😊

@@NordyLeif I am a bit sucky with professional English language. I can use it fairly well in casual talk, but every week I learn something new.

@@LinuxRenaissance You are doing great :D

Well, that’s not a bad feedback actually. The general idea is Stallmans’ and judging by your reaction I am beginning to believe that these “four freedoms” (that make up Free Software) are having difficulty aging. Especially because barely anyone wants to learn programming nowadays. Made me think 🤔

@@LinuxRenaissance What I wanted to say: I blame smartphones - no one casually uses computers any more, and kids are clueless about files and folders - if not tagged it doesn’t exist. Back in early ‘90s I used to give lessons on comp use to people who never used it before but needed it for a job - I never allowed “students” to write anything down because I was explaining concepts to understand and not steps to take - getting help on command or figuring how to do something is easy to do on your own when you understand your environment well. I’m terrified of how smartphones/tablets OSes and UI are having dumbfound and confound effect on human psyche and mind. But there is a hope, I see a lot of kidos in the retro world and my new fav Linux KZbinr @BreadOnPenguins is also giving me hope for humanity. Pls give her a shout in some future video on Linux 😎

@ she is actually amazing.

@@LinuxRenaissance Seed freedom is a powerful food-related analoge. Without it, farmers can't save seed, adapt it to local (and rapidly changing) growing conditions and share the results with their peers. But instead are forced to submit to a handful of mega-corps who's priority is not to provide food, but grab ever more land and money for the owners. Not everyone can, want or should be a full time farmer, but we all depend on those who are.
