↑↑↑ I get a 404.

I have no idea why that is.

empty the cache, remove all cokies, sometimes it works, then it doesn't work again 

I don't know where this upload script is located in Boron, which I activate by right-clicking.

Both work fine for me.  No issues on my end of things.

Re: Distro-hoppers anonymous

I think it still has to do with imgur.
Here is another attempt from another computer.

Boron, desktop image uploaded directly

Yup the last two work just fine.

Also after closing FF and reopening, it loaded the first two as well.

'/usr/bin/bl-image-upload --auto-upload --file %f'

You can find it in Thunar's "Configure custom actions".

Re: Distro-hoppers anonymous

After one year of use Tumbleweed upgraded from Plasma 5 to Plasma 6. Everything went well with the refresh upgrade.

Okay, a few Plasma 5 things were leftovers watching by zypper pa --unneeded
While i was cleaning leftovers, thought i'd better start over. Firstly, i wanted to use the expert installation, but i don't have the patience buidling complete from scratch. With Debian it seems simpler, while in openSUSE it's a bit more complicated at least to me. Also, i don't have the blood of ten years ago that i spent sleepless nights.

So, i went for NETINST ISO and then Server selection.
Afterwards i installed KDE Plasma/Wayland standalone along with required packages and codes from packman.

Freshy from Yesterday.

I can say that it has been a good year with almost no issues for me Plasma 5.
Tumbleweed is a fine rolling distro. Let see how it will go the new release.

Re: Distro-hoppers anonymous

I have it multibooted on my "testing" laptop and it really flys on a modern pc.  Very fun and interesting to play with.  I dont rely on it for everyday use but it does work very well for a debian based distro in my opinion.

I'm similar. I'd like to have an ultra-lightweight distro for when this machine starts becoming "difficult" (it seems to be struggling with big loads at the moment).

All I've added to it so far are "full fat" Vim and Neovim for text editing, Terminator for terminal duties, and Seamonkey for browsing as I found Badwolf difficult to use; but I'm planning on adding some more small applications soon especially terminal-based ones (Elinks is probably going to be the next one).

People upgrading to KDE Plasma6 take care.

...we highly recommend that you hold off installing any global themes on your Plasma 6 desktop environment

Re: Distro-hoppers anonymous

I've just installed the latest version of Mageia (9). It looks quite retro and its repositories seem smaller than those of the other rpm-based distros, but otherwise it works OK.

I had Mageia 9 installed on my spare laptop at one time and cant say I really had any issues with it.  The only reason I removed it was to install Garuda in its place.

Removed DSL 2024 and install Mageia 9 in its place.  I did a net install of Mageia to get the items I particularly wanted and to avoid others I did not want.  Openbox WM, stock wallpaper and custom conky.

Re: Distro-hoppers anonymous

Attention, backdoor in the xz-utils package of Arch, Debian (testing, sid), Fedora and openSUSE.

Guys, check your installations!

Thanks, this is worth knowing. For the time being I'm going to avoid the distros mentioned (Arch, Debian testing, sid, Fedora and openSUSE), because I don't know enough to get out of trouble if my system gets infected. I'm currently posting this from Slackware.

People with more knowledge than me can doubtless make other decisions.

Re: Distro-hoppers anonymous

Thanks, unklar.

On my Arch system, I saw the news, ran to install the fix, and found that the fix had already been installed in yesterday morning's updates. Those guys are quick!

Re: Distro-hoppers anonymous

https://lists.debian.org/debian-securit … 00057.html

So, on Debian testing, sid or experimental...

sudo apt install --reinstall xz-utils

... will gaurantee that you've upgraded to the fixed package which has the suffix "+really." Verify by running...

apt policy xz-utils

https://packages.debian.org/sid/xz-utils

More info for other distros...
