  5. I have to say there are days in which Linux makes you feel really bad about using Linux.

    Why the hell my Bluetooth adapter stopped working after a kernel update?

    Why is this still happening on 2025…

  6. Does anyone know how to hard disable my motherboards onboard bluetooth radio in linux.

    I'm looking to shutdown ONLY the onboard radio I need the USB radio to function

    No disabling it in the bios doesn't work, no I don't know why.

    Bluetoothctl does not work.
    rfkill does not work.

    I have no idea what I'm doing anymore.

  11. I got a T:Slim X2 last week, then found out the app isn't available in Canada, plus the 'Upload Pump' in Tandem Source doesn't work with Linux. Had my first consult, "Uhhh, I can't get the data off my pump." "Well sucks to be you dude." (she didn't say that, not exactly anyway)

    Sooo, I did a lot of googling figuring someone must have a solution. Nope, or I couldn't find one. I figured it out though. On the command line use:

    sudo chown <username>:<group name, often 'dialout'> /dev/ttyACM0
    chmod 664 /dev/ttyACM0

    after connecting the pump but before clicking on 'Upload Pump' seem to make it work on Google Chrome, on Linux Mint! Yay! You'll have to do this every time after connecting the pump though.

    I know this is likely obvious to most Linux users here, but it wasn't to me. If any other Linux users here have been banging their heads trying to get a connection, try these commands before you try something horrible like using Windows or MacOS.

  16. can someone tell me, how to get #AutoKey (installed appstream://autokey-gtk.desktop) from Discover working in all windows in #Neon #KDE?

    It works in Google Chrome, but not in #Thunderbird (which would be 95% of my usage) or Kate.

  20. When you accidentally firewall the SSH port on your headless server, and the shitty VGA monitor that you usually use for things like this was repurposed a month ago because you definitely wouldn't need it, so you connect a keyboard to it and blindly log in in the hopes that you can turn it off without having a console to look at.

  33. Spent most of the day messing with my security cams/NVR. Still trying to figure out how to view the NVR stream, since the 4way DVI switch I bought got wrecked in shipping. It didn't matter, I also got a long HDMI->DVI cable and the NVR/monitors can't talk to each other. So hard wire is out. Been looking at other systems but most of them use the same app. Maybe the only difference would be those system's cams I could pull the URLs for ZoneMinder, but IDK. *shrug* #LinuxProblems #Garuda

  36. Hours and hours trying to solve why on is not giving me my correct geolocation and it seems that the problem lies with the Mozilla Location Service. Damn.

  40. Mmpf... Jetzt weiss ich, warum ich vor ner Weile ein Backup gemacht habe...
    Na mal sehen, ob das dann auch so funktioniert wie es soll.
    Jetzt erstmal noch kurz was einkaufen gehen.

    Och mennooo...Meeeh... 🙄🙄

  42. I've distro-hopped a thousand times, from Ubuntu to Alpine, never getting very deep with any of them... OpenSUSE would be ideal, but I found it very difficult to setup a VPN.
