Things I Learned: Linux file paths are case-sensitive...Well, that's what I've deduced, anyway.
I installed DOSBox and stumbled upon this realization trying to mount a drive and re-checking my spelling multiple times.
(I'd imagine this is a 'No duh!' moment for many of you. But not so much for a longtime DOS/Windows user.)

This weekend's project:
Replaced my #Postfix #MTA #mailserver with a new one. I had been running a #Ubuntu based one since 2020, and it didn't deal well with an in-place upgrade.
New machine set up on #Debian 12, with a bunch of tips stolen from @mwl 's book Run Your Own Mail Server and from https://workaround.org/ispmail-bookworm/
Update 13.0.9 https://furilabs.com/update-13-0-9/
Includes support for two-way clipboard, new fingerprint, store and flashlight daemon, support for Pipewire camera and V4L2 camera fixes. Firefox fixes and many system and kernel improvements.

Played around with Debian cloud images to find a way to comfortably use them for my Ambient CI system. Got most things working, but ran into a problem where if I boot an image under QEMU and shut it down, then boot the image again without nework, the UEFI implementation doesn't boot the operating system, it drops into a UEFI shell. I'm sure I'd understand this if I was more familiar with the underlying technologies, but I'm a bit stuck.
Another day I will try this again.
If you use the #RaspberryPi and like #Debian, #DidYouKnow that https://raspi.debian.net exists? It provides ready-to-boot vanilla Debian images, for when you want a cleaner base than Raspberry Pi OS.
Btw. it's already in #Debian #experimental.

Debian on three chips - Hackster.io https://www.hackster.io/news/three-chips-should-be-enough-for-anyone-d2be5b1bce83
I started using Linux back in January or February 2020, and my first distro was Elementary OS 5.1. It felt like the right choice from the start.
Since then, I've tried a bunch of other distros like Arch, Fedora, Alpine, Linux Mint, Manjaro, and Paldo. But in the end, I fell in love with Debian stable.
Arch and Fedora didn't really sit with me, but I might give Arch another shot someday. Out of all the ones I tried, my top picks are Debian, Elementary, Mint, Alpine, and Paldo.
Today, I run Elementary alongside Debian on my laptop, and Debian on both my desktops. I love what Elementary does, but for me, Debian is number one, and Elementary is a close second.

Pues lo he hecho. He eliminado Windows de mis dos equipos. No he encontrado las alternativas que buscaba pero ya estoy harta. Lo primero, los requisitos, que ya todes lo sabemos así que me ahorro la explicación. Lo segundo y lo que más me ha molestado, han eliminado la compatibilidad con las gráficas de los procesadores de ambos equipos. Así que ahora sí (espero) adiós, Windows

I asked them to provide the source code or make it explicitly proprietary - they can't have it both ways https://github.com/fusiondirectory/fusiondirectory/issues/90
They want to market it as #FreeSoftware but at the same time make it harder to install without their proprietary packages. Earlier you could get this from #debian, but now they made it a dependency on them but making it very hard for anyone else to provide these packages.
Interesting discussion with developers of #fusiondirectory who stopped providing debian source packages publicly, don't provide another build system or installation instructions but still want people to call it #FreeSoftware.
Basically you have to write a build system / installation documentation yourself if you really have to use that software.

Quick tip! You can actually see the changelog details for Debian/Ubuntu packages, which includes security info, CVEs, package urgency, and a short description. Super helpful for figuring out if you need to patch right away or schedule downtime, especially if you're working with clusters. For example, here is how to see info about the nginx:

Assume you have Windows on your computer (as most of computers bring by default), assume you also have a dual boot with Debian or some other Debian-like OS (Ubuntu, Mint, ...) and you manage it with Grub2. Now, let's assume you install a third OS, like for example Open Suse Tumbleweed. It may happen 1) the new Grub2 you see when starting the computer is the one coming with the 3rd OS (Open Suse...); 2) if you enter in Windows and restart the computer... you find the terrible surprise that there is no more Grub2 and it enters straight to Windows; and 3) update-grub in the 2nd OS (Debian-like) does not detect the 3rd OS (Open Suse)...; and 4) after many attemts you solve neither 2) nor 3).
1/2
So, what to do? First, enter in the 3rd OS (Open SUSE) (before going in Windows!!!) and copy the contents being in /boot/grub/grub.cfg (to use in the 2nd OS, so use some Internet or USB or whatever). Second, in the 2nd OS (Debian-like) paste those contents in a new file /boot/grub/custom.cfg (see https://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?p=781500#p781500, https://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=159094) And 3rd, it is possible you have to replace in that file the entries /boot with entries /@/boot (https://forums.opensuse.org/t/trying-to-dualboot-opensuse-and-linux-mint-by-adding-mint-to-opensuse-grub-but-when-selecting-entry-i-get-error-you-need-to-load-kernel-first/179906).
You can check this in the grub: press c to enter in the command line tool, press ls -l to see the partitions, and for example if (hd0,gpt1) is one of them, 'ls (hd0,gpt1)'+tab will show you the possible paths, being of the form '/boot' or being first '/@' and then '/@/boot'..
Anyway, I got Open SUSE Tumbleweed installed and accessible with Debian Grub2 after all the previous afternoon+evening+night looking for a solution.
2/2
1. As an employee of #SUSE, I need to note that we actually have one completely European enterprise Linux distribution with over thirty [!] years of experience. We are perfectly ready to serve anybody who wants to switch from any US-centric distro.
2. Even if you don’t want to pay for it, I don’t think #Debian (although SPI is American), or #Ubuntu are exactly slaves to US whims (and I don’t even know what is a domicile of #Arch). And, of course, #openSUSE is gratis as well.

Buenos dias.... hoy sigo con mi proyecto de mejora del server de TKZ, que ya que tengo pendiente actualizar sus discos duros y el OS, pues voy a aprovechar para añadirle un poco de seguridad, porque el acceso y la privacidad de los datos para mi es crucial.
Para los que queráis saber más sobre lo que tengo en mente, os cuento un poco:
- La instalación será Debian 12.10 y tendrá el OS instalado en dos discos duros con RAID1, para que en caso de que haya un fallo de disco duro se pueda reemplazar por otro fácilmente con tolerancia a fallos y alcance completo al OS.
- Además de esto, el disco duro salvo la partición /boot irá encriptado con LUKS
- La clave de LUKS estará en un dispositivo externo (Llave USB) junto a la partición /boot
- Initramfs se encargará de montar este USB y coger automáticamente TODO lo necesario.
- Si el USB no está presente el sistema no arrancará.
- Si el USB está presente el sistema arrancará con su EFI de forma trasparente y sin preocupación.
- En caso de que uno de los HDs falle o la RAID 1 no esté operativa, el sistema reconstruirá la RAID 1 en un nuevo disco manteniendo la encriptación.
- La partición de intercambio (SWAP) también estará encriptada.
Todo esto ya lo he replicado con éxito y hecho funcionar en un entorno virtualizado y ahora me falta pasarlo al servidor, cosa que espero hacer a lo largo de hoy.
La idea principal es que sin el USB de arranque los datos no sean accesibles de ninguna manera, incluso extrayendo los discos duros físicamente, debido a la encriptación.
¿Tenéis alguna sugerencia, matíz o apunte sobre este setup? ¿Qué opinais?
¡Gracias!

9to5Linux Weekly Roundup for March 16th, 2025
🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 89 ✨
Oh #PeerTube, you are making me do mental somersaults as I strategize about the best way to self-host my videos.
This newbie wants to ask: how many VPS’s are too many for someone who has little coding experience and has been self-hosting for just 3 months?
Fedi friends, I’m thinking of signing up for a THIRD VPS 😱
Why?
My current setup:
1️⃣ 5€/month Debian VPS with #YunoHost, where I’m self-hosting #GoToSocial (this account), #Friendica, #Pixelfed, #Fail2Ban and #LinkStack.
2️⃣ 5€/month Ubuntu VPS where I am self-hosting my (upcoming) #Ghost blog (this will make me save a ton, compared to my current Ghost Pro plan).
Back to PeerTube: I could easily upgrade my #Debian VPS and install it there - the costs would be minimal and I would double my RAM and storage. But I am afraid of PeerTube’s consumption when it comes to bandwidth. As in: if I upload a video that for some reason becomes really popular, or if a bad actor decides to DDOS my channel, would that take down all my other self-hosted Fediverse instances? Since they are on the same VPS?
I could limit potential issues by having a dedicated VPS just for PeerTube.
What would you do?
And do you have recommendations for Europe-based VPS’s with affordable plans? (aside from Hostinger) I was thinking of #Hetzner…

I am well aware of the challenge on the #Debian side too, having brought up more than a few arm systems there too... but there is no comparison!
In #Guix the initrd has a hard-coded(?) list of modules loaded with insmod... In order... no attempt at dependency resolution at runtime or initrd creation. You can add modules to the list, or specify your own list entirely, which is what did for the #MNTReform this time.
The 90s haunt the 2020s sometimes. :)
Made a #MNTReform kernel for #Guix ... and used my MNT Reform2 rk3588 to build the kernel and successfully booted to #Debian !
With 32GB of ram, 8 moderately fast arm64 cores and an NVMe disk, it seems quite viable to run Guix.
Probably still missing some functionality, but the screen, mouse, keyboard, ethernet all work, at least!
Thanks @josch for organizing those patches so nicely for the reform-debian-packages repository!
Wow, #LibreOffice has gotten a lot of nice features in the past couple years!
(Mainly looking at active row/column highlighting in LO Calc).
Definitely worth running the #Flatpak version on #Debian! <3
@joeyh @job @tuxmain it on #mozilla to get people to agree to the ToS. They have not enforced that either in the source code or the trademark exception given to #Debian. The two things that has effect is Mozilla Public License and the trademark policy exception granted to Debian. If they need anything more, they need to ask Debian / include it in the source code. The expectation mozilla has from Debian in addition to MPL for using Firefox trademark is public, there is no mention of ToS there.

Interesting insight on #AlpineLinux's APK package format used by its eponymous package manager:
https://www.hydrogen18.com/blog/apk-the-strangest-format.html
I think there are some parallels between this and #Debian's .deb files, even in the naming of the subdivisions "control" and "data," but I never really delved much into either topic.
Also: fitting an entire repository in 40GB of space? Amazing what a minimalist distribution can be!

Can anyone using #firefox in #Ubuntu confirm, if you need to click "I agree" to use firefox ? Does it show ToS before you start using firefox ?
Clicking or not clicking "I agree" makes a crucial difference in mozilla getting your permission to use your data. Unlike proprietary software or services, you can get #firefox from a different source without agreeing to this shit. Just the name may be different or they might have made it better for you.
#mozilla #debian #librewolf #ironfox #gnomeweb
@job @tuxmain about:rights page on debian's firefox package don't even mention the TOS. #Debian has not agreed to any other terms with #mozilla than Mozilla Public License. Mozilla does not even ship the ToS with the source code. Please ask mozilla for an official statement, if Firefox ToS applies to Debian's binaries.
@job @tuxmain I think what Mozilla did to Debian packages is an exception to its trademark requirements
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=815006
"More generally, Mozilla trusts the Debian packagers to use their best judgment to achieve the same quality as the official Firefox binaries."
If there are specific issues that needs adding a patch, Debian should be able to do that, and in worst case, resurrect #iceweasel name if mozilla complains again.

It's built-in (at least as of Plasma 5.27, which is what's on the current #Debian stable).
Make sure your "Battery and Brightness" widget is displayed. If it isn't, you can cause it to always be displayed by right-clicking on a blank spot on the systray area, clicking "Configure System Tray...," clicking on "Entries," either searching for or finding "Battery and Brightness" on the list, click on the "Visibility" drop-down and selecting "Always shown."
Once the little battery and/or brightness indicator is shown (depending on whether or not your device has a battery, I guess!), just click on it and click on the little checkbox on the very top that says, "Manually block sleep and screen locking."
Presto!
P.S., all those who say "linux isn't about systray," please give yourself a nice, tight wedgie, just for me. xoxo

In my experience (N=1), #Fedora is significantly easier to set up the way a normal user wants it than #Debian is. However, my last serious use of Debian was in about 2018, so my comments may be out of date.
I do like Debian for its stability and its multi-year support cycle. Fedora's six-monthly upgrades would be less traumatic if I hadn't made the mistake of choosing an #Nvidia graphics card.
I have just discovered #SeaFile https://www.seafile.com/en/home/ and I consider it a valid alternative to #Nextcloud. On #Proxmox, it appears much lighter than Nextcloud, and the #Debian application also seems more streamlined… Are you familiar with it? Any suggestions? Any thoughts?

Come by and say hi! https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/22x/exhibitors?page=1 #debian
and I thought one couldn't improve upon #cat https://github.com/sharkdp/bat (available in #Debian as "bat", which was surprisingly not taken yet!) #riir #rust
@aburka @joeyh these ToS is not included in the source code, so don't apply to people building from source like #librewolf or #ironfox.
It applies to #Ubuntu, which ships official snap binaries, but not to #Debian which builds from source.
It'd at least be very confusing to people that only "some" Firefox is affected. Debian is a special case, as we got an exception from Mozilla for using that trademarked name (it was called #iceweasel for a long time before #mozilla gave this exception).
