This article is about Mobifree https://f-droid.org/en/2024/05/24/mobifree.html As far as I can see F-Droid mentions that it will be a contributing partner :
For more than 14 years, F-Droid has been developing solutions which act as pieces of the alternative mobile ecosystem puzzle. So it was a natural fit for F-Droid to become a contributing partner in the broader Mobifree project.
F-Droid playing a role :
F-Droid will play a major role in this project, tasked with creating a decentralized distribution system for developers to deliver apps to Android users.
Help to create the NGI funded project Mobifree :
F-Droid is one participating organization who has joined forces to help create this new mobile ecosystem. However, additional input, expertise, inspiration and work will be needed in order to break the traditional framework established by Big Tech. From community outreach to legal support, from developers, to researchers and end users, we welcome all forms of support.
I don't read that F-droid will force ads on F-Droid on users any time soon. I can imagine F-Droid will continue to exist as it is but I could be wrong.
Windows does have a fallback mode called safe mode and thatโs exactly whatโs being used to fix this utter mess.
The other fix was reboot your Windows computer at least 15 times.
Package management isnโt going to save you from this as it didnโt save the Linux systems affected last time. It didnโt stop Arch Linux from failing to boot after a Grub update either.
Not everyone was affected though :
How come not everyone was impacted?
Prior to the most recent version, grub only registered the fwsetup if detected support. If your machine detected support, you would have had the fwsetup command registered and the failure wouldnโt occur.
Big fan of Cantata here :)
It was forked this year and the new developer kept using the original name.
Would using a blue-tooth keyboard make sense ?
That looks neat and useful. It is an Android wrapper around rclone not rsync. Thanks for sharing.
EDIT: I kinda forgot to actually mention my problem. When booting nornall, I get stuck at a lonely white blinking cursor on a black screen, so startx seems to make some problems. I enter a TTY and run startx and this is what I get when running startx:
output of startx
What was the output ? It is not visible for me here.
Huge news ๐ Thanks OP for sharing.
It feels like a relief after reading earlier Lemmy comments in other posts about btrfs vs ext4 and having read this Wikipedia page paragraph :
In 2008, the principal developer of the ext3 and ext4 file systems, Theodore Ts'o, stated that although ext4 has improved features, it is not a major advance, it uses old technology, and is a stop-gap. Ts'o believes that Btrfs is the better direction because "it offers improvements in scalability, reliability, and ease of management".[29] Btrfs also has "a number of the same design ideas that reiser3/4 had".[30] ๐ข
Oh no, wait a minute, I overlooked the next sentence last time ๐ :
However, ext4 has continued to gain new features such as file encryption and metadata checksums.
Is this a desktop computer ? Two hard disks can make things more difficult. How about taking the power cord temporarily off from the larger disk, then install, and if it's successful then turn it off and give the 2nd disk power again, and add that 2nd disk manually to the fstab as e.g. /opt/ as mount point.
