I legitimately want to run Linux as my desktop OS, please tell me how to meet my requirements.
  • I think the key is you need to find FOSS software that works for you before migrating your OS. Most FOSS software will run on windows and sometimes MAC.

    1-2 and 3 will be hard. You can find many tools that do something similar but it won’t be perfect. There are a few different music managers, and for office libreoffice is the go to.

    1. try digikam, it supports all OSes

    2. googling “Fujitsu snap scanner Linux” yielded a few blog articles on the matter. Seems it should be supported.

  • RPM to APT distros correspondence
  • What’s your goal? Is it safe to match is a very open ended question.

    Take RHEL, it’s meant to be a paid distro for enterprise, something Debian isn’t. But you could draw similarities too.

    What’s are you trying to learn?

  • Self Host Intranet Email

    Hi all, I am in the process of setting up authentik and had the thought of setting up an intranet email for it.

    The idea is that I could set up a very simple email server and client that would only work on my home network to manage email notifications, passwords, etc from all my self hosted applications (proxmox, gitea, etc). It wouldn’t need to communicate with the outside world, only users of my intranet.

    Have you done something like this? Any particular tools or advice?

    I know about other options like the proton SMTP bridge but this seemed more fun!

  • Proxmox is meant to be an appliance. Meaning, you shouldn’t mess with the base OS .

    If you want a desktop it might be better to make a dedicated VM in proxmox for it.

  • Packman repository usage best practices on Opensuse Tumbleweed?
  • I’ve found it best to avoid the pacman repo. It can leave my system in such a weird inbetween state. Seeing as you mostly want codecs I tend to prefer flatpaks for VLC, Firefox, etc.

    If you insist on pacman, just wait. If you try to dup and have a conflict it means that either pacman or suse repos aren’t all updated so hold on a few days and you should be able to dup with no issues.
