Either I need the app to forward any received text message to another phone number. This should be reliable, i.e. not stop when the phone is idle/sleeping....
From past forums reading I remember that a boot loader in Linux can have trouble booting properly when you use two different physical drives (Rather than one drive and different partitions), I think it needs to specifically get to know about both drives. Does this help ?
I downloaded Java, Removed LibreOffice, and installed OpenOffice. I see all the icons, and everything, but when I click on it to open it, NOTHING happens. I just, wont open, I uninstalled, and reinstalled it. and I dont know what to do. Can anyone please help me?
I like using thunderbird to have all my emails in the same place, in a unified inbox. This doesn’t allow me to access my inbox on my phone etc though, so I’m looking for a FOSS way to solve this problem....
Supports several databases like rocksdb, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite
Seems to support connecting to your current logins setup e.g. LDAP or MySQL db
Got funding via NLnet
Supports JMAP
Does not seem to require Docker (which means for me some flexibility network config wise to run it on an existing server where non Docker based services are running).
Encryption at Rest enabled or disabled by user.
Especially the JMAP part I am curious about. I hope to toy with this every now and then, and then report back :)
Ah, yes, you’re right, cheers for that, but I am interested to compare JMAP speed and options with IMAP. And to test Stalwart I would not mind using the first and the last three in that Clients list.
Hello, currently I use qksms but its very problematic and lacks basic fetures. One of those issues being you cant send videos, and sending and recieving media is pixalated or blurry because of a commpresion issue. I’ve already tried adjusting the compresion options in settings to find out it doesn’t work....
Tinkering is all fun and games, until it’s 4 am, your vision is blurry, and thinking straight becomes a non-option, or perhaps you just get overly confident, type something and press enter before considering the consequences of the command you’re about to execute… And then all you have is a kernel panic and one thought...
I have an oldish Dell Latitude 7480 which doesn’t meet the requirements for upgrade to Windows 11 so I thought I’d take the opportunity to install Linux on it as I only really need it for day to day web stuff / studying / media and light gaming....
Where my curiosity lies is this, from my understanding Linux Mint is based on underlying Ubuntu as is Pop_OS, so how come both Pop_OS and Ubuntu recognise the wi-fi card out of the box so to speak but Mint doesn’t.
Different releases of Linux distributions come with different kernel versions (e.g. 4.x vs 5.x vs 6.x). And in the past sometimes for some devices (Like Android smart phones for mtp file transfer, or security keys) additional udev rules had to be added to make the Linux system recognize the device properly. Then there is firmware (closed source binary blobs) as well.
I remember a friend having issues with the WiFi card, with an old LTS version of Ubuntu, whereas a brand new Ubuntu version worked fine with the WiFi card. Glad to hear it all works for you, and welcome on board @ Planet Linux.
I often do like these posts, because it usually shows their past suffering, and the new freedom they enjoy. It is also an opportunity to share the common community feeling with them.
After all, to me many years ago when I saw Linux booting for the very first time (no GUI, just lots of text from the kernel) that was one thing about Linux that I liked : names of human beings visible. If you look at software by Microsoft or Apple on computer installations you will normally see zero names, it is all very formal.
Social interaction between Linux users, starting with solving Linux questions, has been there for years in forums. I like seeing people help other people and move forward together.
Same with newcomer posts. I think if the posters get redirected to the correct sub
Thinking about this I think that a lot of consumers who buy their new laptops will have ChromeOS, Microsoft Windows or Apple Mac OS pre-installed, and when they have problems with it, most of them might go back to the shop to get help, or even buy just another new computer. Another good feature of Linux is that it does not necessarily force you into hardware upgrades every few years, and it can even run on all kind of devices., making Linux flexible and sustainable.
I've always felt guilty by taking for granted the rare breed of virtuous humans that provide free excellent software without relying on advertising. Let's change that and pay, how much would I “lose” anyway?
Your storing in password protected zip file is better than storing it plain text in a file on your computer but the password encryption of zip is probably not that strong. A friend of mine insists on using a disk encrypted pen drive with an office document having his passwords. I hope he has a backup drive :)
Yes :( Unfortunately Chromebooks are really cheap here, and countless people are hooked already to Google products because of their Android phones already, so the choice is easy for them I figure.
I’ve been using FreedomBox with a few friends for about two months now, and it’s been wonderful. I set up a little server for friends and family, and I love that it lets people like me who don’t have as much self-hosting experience to get started quickly....

TL;DR: I wonder why we always have the same 2 posts as top posts of the day. They appear a bit unnecessary and mildly annoying to me....
