linuxusers.in is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
#lisp #commonlisp #lispworks #linux #wayland
With LispWorks 8.1 (here on ARM64 / Linux) it runs without X11 (xlsclients then does not list it as a client) using Gtk+ 3 and calling (capi:screen-display-type) returns :WAYLAND .
This maybe harsh but I personally hate gray themes to death

I’m not finding any information online other than that it’s difficult

I’m trying a new CPU in my PC (Ryzen 5600) and I’m seeing:
ps
didn’t work anymore. 😅Funny thing is, other than that the system runs fine (when it boots, that is).
Switched back to my old CPU (that’s the only change in the machine) and all of these things stopped.
That CPU that’s doing that is defective, correct? Just double-checking I’m not missing anything else.
I’ve reset BIOS between CPU swaps and left it at defaults. Could default settings cause a CPU to act like this?
I installed an additional SSD on my pc. Everything works ok, except I need to unlock it with my root password on every session so that it mounts.
I’ve tried formatting it to change the ‘owner’, tried adding it to the user group, and I can’t find any other solutions. Any ideas?
This happens irrelevant of DE (happens on KDE and hyprland). I’m running tumbleweed, though this looks like a config problem rather than a distro problem.
I already knew that the PrtScr key captures a screenshot of the full screen on Linux but only today I learned that Alt+PrtScr captures the current window. I discovered it while reading about the origin of the SysRq key.

> imagine namespaces as boxes for processes containing some abstracted global system resources, one good thing with these boxes is that you can add and remove stuff from one box and it will not affect the content of the other boxes. Or, if a process A in a box (set of namespaces) goes crazy and decides to delete the whole filesystem or the network stack in that box, it will not affect the abstraction of these resources provided for another process B placed in a different box. Moreover, namespaces can provide even fine-grained isolation, allowing process A and B to share some system resources (e.g. sharing a mount point or a network stack). Namespaces are often used when untrusted code has to be executed on a given machine without compromising the host OS.
> kernel assigns each process a symbolic link per namespace kind in /proc/<pid>/ns/. The inode number pointed to by this symlink is the same for each process in this namespace. This uniquely identifies each namespace by the inode number pointed to by one of its symlinks.
Reading the symlink via readlink returns a string containing the namespace kind name and the inode number of the namespace.

My sister just texted me a photo of HP Z420 Workstation and asked how she can get rid of it.. I said "Bring it over!"
I don't have it yet but it looks like it's pretty old (2011 maybe?) but has room for 3 internal drives... Maybe I can get TrueNAS running on it and experiment with ZFS?
It's probably a power hungry machine since it's a giant tower that's old, but might be worth a try to get it running.
