  • clang-15.0.7 seems to break binaries when used with -O2 flag
    1 project | /r/voidlinux | 5 Dec 2023
    In general, Void assumes familiarity with the principles of Linux and UNIX system. Basic questions about configuring or running a Linux system can frequently be answered with a Google search. The Internet grew up with UNIX, and Linux grew up on the Internet; you are encouraged to avail yourself of the extensive body of knowledge already out there. Some particulars of Void administration are described in the handbook; consult this document before asking common questions about configuring Void systems.

  • installing void for a11y

    I know for sure that these images work with espeakup, and espeakup can be enabled at boot by adding live.screenreader to the command line as described here
  • What's the difference between the BASE and XFCE version ?
    1 project | /r/voidlinux | 8 Jun 2023
    You might look at https://docs.voidlinux.org/, which provides a good overview of Void. The package manager, xbps is [my opinion] better that apt [I have to use the latter in AntiX Linux].
  • Arch, void or something else entirely?
    4 projects | /r/linuxmasterrace | 11 May 2023
    the final criticism i have for void is the way they have decided to host their docs; as this void-docs. This bottlenecks the possible amount of expertise you'd receive from your doc writers by ensuring that only those who want to learn git are able to contribute to your docs. this, to me, is very inadequate if your intent is to have documentation written by those who are very good at docwriting but not necessarily maneuvering in version control systems like git. i'm not sure what the impetus was to move away from the traditional wiki model, but this from my perspective is a failure.
  • I am switching to void. would like to ask a few questions (i am new to linux)
    1 project | /r/voidlinux | 1 May 2023
    Follow the guide on the void website and you will be fine. Come here for support, we love helping others out and it's a great community, on par with the OpenBSD community as far as being helpful and encouraging you to learn the OS. If you find there's a package you need that hasn't been added to xbps yet, you can use a Flatpak or AppImage (easy way) or build the package yourself using xbps-src (advanced way, worth learning down the line).
  • How do I reinstall the xbps package?
    1 project | /r/voidlinux | 30 Apr 2023
    I just made a PR on their github to add this.
  • Is there anyway to extract the first page of an epub as image so I can use it in lf previewer
    5 projects | /r/commandline | 27 Apr 2023
    Perl has traditionally been my language of choice for this sort of stuff (e.g. this script for converting mdBook to LaTeX), but more recently i've been focusing on POSIX shell scripts as a personal challenge and learning exercise.

  • First time on Void, any tips I should know about?
    1 project | /r/voidlinux | 4 Apr 2023
    Understanding how runit manages services is critical. Also, there are certain "restricted" packages that xbps can manage but not download. The handbook does a good job covering both topics.

  • Penguin, Chicken or Duck? (Eros, OC, Microsoft Bing AI Generated)
    1 project | /r/MildFemboys | 9 Dec 2023
    Arch is a popular Linux distribution(basically an os). Him saying that he uses arch is basically a joke that arch Linux users will always mention that they use the distro. (Also a penguin is also the Linux mascot)
  • Arch Linux bugtracker migration to Gitlab completed
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 8 Dec 2023
    Arch sends distribution news every week or so, usually in one or two paragraphs.

    https://archlinux.org/

    I've followed the gitlab migration and every package and distribution change that warranted community notification for more than a decade.

    It's such an empowering feeling to have tracked all the changes to the distribution over a decade. The Arch maintainer culture has managed to provide consistent high quality communication and documentation.

    Most of the news doesn't require action on my part regarding a subsystem or package I don't use. But they use the news channel sparingly and the distribution is minimal and clean. So news arrives only every other week or so and is succinctly written in one or two paragraphs.

    It's a distribution for those who love precision and professionalism.

  • Moving from Mint to Arch
    2 projects | /r/archlinux | 7 Dec 2023
    When searching for something just add Arch Linux to the and follow official archlinux.org and use duckduckgo.com for better results. You will get amazed how good arch wiki explained everything and how aur has very large apps.
  • Can't "sudo pacman -Syu" (jdk-openjdk and jre-openjdk are in conflict)
    1 project | /r/archlinux | 11 Nov 2023
    I wonder how many people got frustrated with the solution posted on the front page of https://archlinux.org/, as it seems to not have been fixed for 5 days already.

  • Thinking of learning Linux for a potential IT career, is it worth it?
    1 project | /r/linuxquestions | 7 Sep 2023
    Since you want to use Linux in your job function, I would suggest you start with Arch Linux OS. https://archlinux.org/ Arch linux and arch based linux's like Manjaro, start you off in teaching you linux by making you install it and do everything from the command line. Nothing gets installed unless you want to install it. They have an extensive Arch Wiki that will walk you through anything you might need to learn.
