If you installed the latest #Manjaro stable update and instead of a booting system you now have one getting stuck at
"symbol grub_memcpy not found"
you may want to go into your BIOS and change the boot device order. For me in addition to "Windows Boot Manager" and "UEFI OS" an additional "Manjaro" has shown up. Selecting this instead of UEFI OS to boot from fixed the problem.(Solution found through google and then scrolling through this https://forum.manjaro.org/t/error-symbol-grub-memcpy-not-found-entering-rescue-mode/183487/5 )

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you want to use Gnucash on Ubuntu with a Postgres back-end, and you get stuck when the Data Format option in the Open Dialog contains only "file" and not "postgresql", you should install the libdbd-pgsql Ubuntu package. If you do so, and then restart Gnucash, the postgresql option will be present. You do not need to recompile gnucash from source, nor will it help. #theyearoflinuxonthedesktop -

CW: Linux Rant #2
I'm really trying y'all
I'm trying to make it #theyearoflinuxonthedesktop
I just saw something funny and wanted to clip it, annotate it, and share it
Pretty common, right? What I had in mind would take me maybe 20 seconds on my phone
But on Linux...
I screenshot what I need, no problem there, but I'm not going to open Gimp just to throw some arrows and text on a screenshot
So I search. "Annotator" is popular, cool. Oh, it's $10 on appcenter.elementary.io. I don't want to share this clip that bad.
There's also ksnip. I go to install it. What?? It's already installed??? Great!!!
I open it up, open my clip, and everything is going great. I've got arrows pointing. Now time to add some text.
I switch to the text tool, add a text element and start typing, "W..." and ksnip is gone. Crashed. Adios.
I reopen and try a few more times. I try with other text tools. Crash. Crash. Crash. Instantly too, no explanation, nothing.
I go to run ksnip from the CLI to see if there are any messages I can capture when it's crashing. I'm thinking "maybe I need to install some missing fonts or something"
- ksnip isn't in the path
- because it's a flatpak
- I have no idea where flatpaks are installedd. fuck thisV. I give upVI. I'm going to bed
