#ubuntu 24.04

[netscapenavigator-official]

So I have a Linux problem, and I'm just gonna post it here. I dunno if I have the reach for this, but if you know a potential fix, I will gladly accept it:

Basically, I run Zorin OS 17.2 Core on my Mid-2017 MacBook Pro (Two Thunderbolt Ports). This computer has been hell to make work, but after years of fiddling and finding drivers and terminal commands, it works almost like OEM.

My last problem with this machine, and the only thing that does not function like it's OEM, is the Sleep/Wake function. This is a known issue with 2016 and newer MacBooks on Linux; However, there are workarounds.

Namely, I found a kernel parameter that prevents Deep sleep and only allows the computer to go into s2idle when the lid is shut. This isn't great because it means the dies quickly and gets hot when the lid is shut, but I can't really do anything about it. This did, however, fix an issue I was having where the audio would just stop working if I ever shut the lid.

The final issue was getting the computer to wake up on its own. Every time I start the computer up (not waking it up; only powering it up from a complete shutdown) I have go into terminal and run this:

sudo bash -c 'echo "0" > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:01\:00.0/d3cold_allowed'

I don't know what this command does, but without it, the machine will just never wake up. If you close the lid without running this at initial startup, it cannot be woken back up until it is rebooted.

That's not really a problem, since it's only once per reboot, and I don't reboot my laptop very frequently.

You know what would really make this even more seamless, though? If I could run this command using Ubuntu's startup applications menu. That way, I wouldn't have to manually open terminal every boot just to run this command. It would just run automatically, and I'd never have to worry about it. It would work like OEM! (Minus the less efficient sleep state.)

However, I can't do that. I've tried that. In fact, I have that exact command in my Startup Applications app, as we speak.

Any time I start the computer up and DON'T manually run the command, if I shut the lid, the computer sleeps. It will, however, wakeup (unlike if the command had never been input). HOWEVER. Unlike running the command in terminal, when it finally wakes up, the cursor photo changes into a gray square, my Night Light settings are reset, my wallpaper changes to black, my system accent color is changed to default, and any time I click inside the password box to login, the field immediately becomes inactive again. It doesn't stay active long enough for me to even get two letters typed. All this happens while "Authentication Error" rapidly and randomly flashes below the password box.

Eventually, if I don't force shut down the machine, it'll crash. It'll throw me into terminal mode, and it'll infinitely repeat an error claiming it could not write to some 'systemd jounral' thing because the operating system is in read-only mode. After that it'll either repeat that error over and over, creating endless lines in terminal mode, or it'll just freeze, and I have to restart the laptop either way. So, my question is:

WHY.

Why does running this command in terminal and running it via Startup Application have different results, and is there any way to fix it??

In the process of switching to Linux so I can't use photoshop and I was wondering why Krita is such a well kept secret? Maybe it's just come a long way over the years, but its kind of the tits?

It's really streamlined and super powerful, not to mention it's open source, free, and wicked easy to install. If yall are sick of Photoshop training it's dumbass AI, I think Krita is worth considering as an alternative. It's dynamic and focused on artists, and the workspace is easy to get used to.

It's rough out there for artists rn, but the Open Source community seems to have our asses covered

Now that the release of Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is official with Ubuntu dropping news of the release today of both the new Desktop and Server, it’s time to start updating some automation in the home lab.

You don't have to live like this.

Linux is right there.

Mint or Ubuntu install even easier than windows and can run on a potato computer from 15 years ago.

Between that, and the right firefox extensions, I haven't seen an advertisement on my computer in years.

Come to the open-source side, we have no ads, no data-harvesting spyware, no impossible-to-uninstall bloatware, infinite customization, and support for more than you think.

Most steam games run out of the box on linux now that they've made their Proton compatibility tool. You usually don't have to configure anything, just check the box to enable it.

I promise, if you can follow written instructions no more complex than driving directions to the next town, you too can run a linux desktop.

I'm going to sound very old and very tired here for a second, but iIt is so dystopian to me to have ads on my computer.

Ads used to be on the internet. And that's that. The things that were installed on my computer did not show me ads.

And that goes even beyond the questionable practice that free versions of programs such as Avira now show you lil ads in the corner of your screen like once a day.

You used to have free games on your computer.

I was in the mood to play a game again, a very rare mood for me, and I opened the game center for the... first time since I had this version of Windows (as I said; very rare mood).

And there's ads. You play the "free" games that live on your computer and there are ads left and right and beneath it and between levels there is just a 20 second ad break.

You can go premium to no longer have ads.

That's dystopian to me.

When things that used to be fully free and just part of something are now riddled with ads and to get the ad free experience that, again, used to just be the experience, you have to pay.

And it's not even a one-time-payment.

Back in the day, you used to pay for something and then you owned it. You used to pay for a program or a game, and you owned a physical CD that you put in your computer to install the thing and it was just yours. It belonged to you, because you paid for it.

Now everything is a per month subscription, which is just so sinister because many look like oh, that's not that much money! Sure, I'll pay 1,99€/month to play games ad free. Every single month sums up, and it sums to a lot over the years though, for something that used to be free. (And I've complained about subscriptions before, in the context of Adobe, which isn't just dystopian anymore, it's actually plain evil to demand 25,99€/month to use a singular program, that you can now no longer buy to actually own.)

And I know - I know - you can find free games online to download or play in browser (already did that for mahjong) - but I'm talking about the principle here. The principle of getting ads on your computer, directly, and to have to pay to no longer have ads and use something that had been a part of the Windows experience since... forever.

Okay, so, I'm confused. Therefore, I'm turning to the Linux community of Tumblr for advice.

I'm trying to install the latest dev version of Wine.

WineHQ allows you to add Repositories based on your kernel version.

I'm running Zorin OS 17.2, which, according to the dev blog post, is based on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble).

However.

When using this command:

cat \etc\os-release

(Note: I had to use backwards slashes on Tumblr. Typing out c(slash)o results in this: c/o. I'm using the proper slashes irl.)

As WineHQ tells me too, and the terminal reports that

VERSION_CODENAME=jammy

Jammy is the codename for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (what Zorin OS 17.0 was based on.)

So now I'm confused. I know this distro is supposed to be running Noble's kernel, but it's reporting that it's running on Jammy. Now I don't know whether to install the Jammy or Noble version of Wine, and I need help knowing which one to choose. Did the Zorin Devs forget to relabel the codename when they diverted from 22.04 in Zorin OS 17.1? Is something else going on that means this is actually still 22.04? Is there something else going on??

Idk, and I need help because idk what version of Wine to install.

So the actual reason half my Ubuntu desktop environment no longer worked as I expected is because Ubuntu updated to a new version of GNOME Shell, and that custom functionality was all done by GNOME Shell Extensions, and one quarter of the extensions haven't been updated to work with GNOME Shell 46, and the other quarter were disabled somehow.

Also the version of KDE that is bundled in Ubuntu 24.04 doesn't have support for per-monitor scaling, which is unfortunate.

Maybe I should switch back to something stable, like XFCE.
