I have two arch linux installs, both with GNOME and there is not a single video on tutorial on how to connect them both. I just realized that gnome comes with the desktop share thingy and i was using X11 forwarding... Why do linux users hate themselves?

Nice Video, thinking of Upgrading my old iPod Classic 6th Gen with some new spare parts. At least it needs a new Battery.

I love my modded 5th gen iPod! I have found myself having to use iTunes on a Windows VM for syncing sadly. I couldn't find anyway to get Rhythmbox to sync the album art I have painstakingly embedded into the metadata of my whole library. If anyone knows how to get that to work, I would love to sync it natively on my linux machine instead

I was thinking of buying a Chromebook and installing Deepin Distro but after watching this, nah! Not worth it. I'll just install it in a Virtualbox.

I will switch from classic Mint the moment they add Driver Manager to LMDE

How about Chip's Challenge/Tile World/Lexy's Labyrinth with vim keys?

you're everything I grew up to in 80's and 90's, oh gosh, was that R.E.M out of time :D

I hate when people change the meaning of the word open source. Open source means the source is available to the public, but it does not mean you can feed off other people's work for free and be mad. Don't add extra meaning to a word just because you want to! Open-source projects always had a license. It doesn't matter what the license is, it's still open source. If an open-source project doesn't have a license, that doesn't mean you can do anything with it.

I decided that my inherited Lenovo C540 All In One (not Windows 11 up-gradable) needed to switch to Linux. So I blanked the hard drive and installed MXLinux on it. It works great. However on an older computer I had installed an LXLE distribution. I like LXLE MUCH better, but as you probably know, it is no longer being developed and is based on Ubuntu. Long ago, I was having issues with LXLE being unable to access Ubuntu repositories without a lot of intervention by me (before this problem, it was by far the easiest Linux updating I had ever come across). Seeing that Linux Mint has been Ubuntu based, and that LMDE was only just starting development, pushed me to MXLinux. I now may revisit that decision and install LMDE. However, I do really miss the simplicity and familiarity of LXLE.

@VeronicaExplains I'm a fairly advanced Linux user (starting with Slackware in 1994) so most of your videos cover topics I'm already versed in, but I still enjoy watching them for the presentation style. You're a sort of Mister Rogers of the Linux community, simultaneously teaching a topic to the "little ones" while serving as an example to us "big kids" on how to explain things clearly, concisely, and with doses of gentle humor. Well done!

Does the KDE Plasma version of LMDE support Flatpaks?

Is that cubase DAW opened in the desktop at background and a vst on another?

You definitely know what you are talking about Veronica. I personally prefer LMDE over other distros, Ubuntu based or not. Did you ever try Open Mandriva?

why do we add our user to libvirt & kvm groups? Why don't we add to the libvirt-qemu group? I notice that that's who owns the /var/lib/libvirt/qemu directory, which is empty after installing & running Windows 10 just to boot it & get the internet working. Is the reason we don't add us to that group becuz it only exists since libvirt-qemu is also a user & users all get their own named group? So unlike whatever purpose those other two groups serve, it is not relevant? I also notice groups libvirt & kvm have no one in them according to 'getent group', tho 'groups libvirt-qemu' tells me that that user is in group kvm, so maybe 'getent group' doesn't really tell you who is in a given group.

29:08 You earned a like with this statement. Negativity gets entirely too much traction.

that's something to go on internet when the computer does not have enough ram to load one single picture or even a plain html file

Thank you Veronica❤ Wish I found this video first, well then I did learn a lot messing with Virtual Box failures. Great job with your entertaining🍿 educational🗽 way of Explains❗ I'm a DOS🙄 fan from way back, so finally now got FreeDOS👍 running in a KVM, in Debian Linux, in a former Windows 7 computer😮

"Remember that episode of Star Trek Voyager, 'a Year in Hell'"? Entire Linux Community: "Have you actually forgotten who we are?!"

*takes a year to respond to video, distracted by Bop-It vibes* This is a spectacular video. I've saved it to send to anyone who's considering Mastodon but is overwhelmed about how to use it. I love your emphasis on the fact that social media shouldn't make us more anxious. That has been lost by ... so many people. Thanks for making this. I think, coming to y'all live from the everything-is-going-great period of August 2024, that the Great Mastodon Migration that the tech press predicted never happened because regular users of Twitter and Facebook use Twitter and Facebook because of network effects. There was no inclination to move to something new where your community wasn't, especially when too many Mastodon devs and instance admins disclaimed any responsibility for community building or ease of use. Emphasis on building hyper-local- or affinity group-focused Mastodon instances makes a lot more sense. I wonder if you've seen more of those pop up in the last year? After watching your video, I'd still like to spin up my own single-user Mastodon server, but more just to see if I can do it and to use it as a backup or connecting hub for my presence on other Mastodon or Fediverse servers. I'm still not sure I understand what happens to all my content if I don't have my own server and decide I don't like the server I'm on. I've been using Bluesky for about a month, and I like it, but at the end of the day, it just feels like 2007 Twitter with a few modern features (and lacking several features that I'm surprised it doesn't have, like some sort of way for me to see post metrics). It's great, and clearly a lot of people need and love the experience it provides, but it feels small, and I'm not really sure where it's going. It's not the kind of small that's local; it's the kind of small that's a small group of very enthusiastic people having a party in a huge abandoned warehouse. Often, I feel like I'm shouting into a clique-y void. Something about using it just feels ... off.

Started watching because I wanted opinions on Graphene. Kept watching because it was validating to see someone else who didn't like how Android works.

I'm old school which ain't so old. I won't have a computer without a DVD/CD drive. I also use USB but not going to quit CD and DVD. My vehicle must have a CD player. I may not play too many CDs but it's nice to know I have it when I want to play CDs.. I also have a floppy drive I can plug in when I need it. I learned to program a computer on punch cards and that was when computers were fun. I'm hoping Linux will bring back the fun. Anyone can flop in a program or now days an app. But just running a program ain't fun anymore. Basic was fun, cobol and Fortran was fun. Since Fortran did not have display options back then you could use cobol and run Fortran subroutines that was fun. Basic was fun when you wrote your own programs no licenses needed. 73

A well known downside of van's at least virtual box, was their lack of support for advanced graphic modes. Tell us about it Please 🥺

It's seems like it's Ubuntu running cinnimon instead of gnome

would love to see you nerd out on virsh lol

1:43 Veronica you've cursed us

Gemini 1.5 Pro: The video is about how to set up a Kernel-Based Virtual Machine (KVM) on a Linux machine. The speaker, Veronica, first explains what a hypervisor is and why virtual machines are useful. Then, she dives into the steps to set up KVM on a Linux machine. Here are the steps in detail: 1. Make sure your system has enabled all of the virtualization tools needed in the firmware. You can check this by running the `egrep` command. If the number displayed by the command is more than zero, you’re good to go. If it’s zero, you’ll need to go into your BIOS and enable virtualization. 2. Install the necessary packages. The specific packages you need will vary depending on your distro, but Veronica recommends installing the following packages on Ubuntu-based systems: * `qemu-kvm` * `qemu-utils` * `libvirt-daemon` * `bridge-utils` * `virt-manager` 3. After installing the packages, you’ll need to add your user to the kvm and libvirt group. You can usually do this by running the following command: * `sudo usermod -a -G kvm libvirt <username>` 4. Next, you’ll need to start the libvirt daemon and enable it to start on boot. You can do this by running the following commands: * `sudo systemctl start libvirtd` * `sudo systemctl enable libvirtd` 5. Now you’re ready to create a virtual machine. Veronica recommends using Virtual Machine Manager (virt-manager) for this. 6. In virt-manager, you’ll need to create a storage pool for your ISO files. A storage pool is just an area of storage that you’ve set aside for your VMs and disk images. 7. Once you’ve created a storage pool, you can browse to the ISO file that you want to install. virt-manager will automatically detect the operating system from the ISO name and apply some sane defaults. 8. The next step is to allocate memory and CPU cores to your VM. Veronica recommends giving the VM 4 GB of memory if you have 32 GB on your machine, and 2 GB of memory if you have 8 GB on your machine. You can also specify the number of CPU cores that you want the VM to use. 9. In the storage section, you can specify the amount of storage that you want to allocate to your VM. Veronica recommends creating a separate pool for your VM storage on a separate SSD if you have one. 10. The last step is to name your virtual machine and review your configuration. Once you’re happy with everything, hit finish and virt-manager will create your VM. Veronica also talks about two of her favorite features of KVM: snapshots and USB redirection. Snapshots allow you to roll back your virtual machine to an earlier state. This can be very useful if you’re a sysadmin or developer and you need to roll back some changes. USB redirection allows you to use a USB device from your host computer inside your virtual machine. Overall, the video is a great introduction to KVM for beginners. Veronica does a good job of explaining the concepts in a clear and concise way, and she provides step-by-step instructions for setting up KVM on a Linux machine.

Using Ubuntu Server with KDE. Best of all worlds.. 🙂

Imagine waiting for an update for two years

Great, Thank You! I'm running a dell 3100 (GRABBITER) I had already set up a mint 22 flash drive with etcher before you got me past the WP so I tried it anyway. everything seems to be good. Thanks again!

It took me a moment, but I am thoroughly amused by the irony of your broken windows wallpaper on the Windows machine. 😁

...1080 snowboarding joke...?

❤❤

Great and for me imformative video, i learn something new, that now know. Thank you. Great work on video and correct describing under video with usable links etc. = like and subcribe. Now i go to your video about C64 my first computer that i get in 1985.

old veronica

Pulling the black funky sticky thing was the right decision, it made your iPod look more like a Gameboy Advanced Translucent-Purplish thing! Very nice!!

As an old fart who started his ill-fated life with computers using RSTS/E on a PDP-11/70 via a VT-52 terminals, I've always wanted to have a play with old school terminal, but the main thing is that if you aren't in the right place and time, they are as expensive as a whole computer these days. As I've sometimes put it, I've never hung around the right dumpsters.

I just did this yesterday to four chromebooks donated to a shelter my wife and I volunteer at. They (except one) only have 16g drives in them. There are 20 more for me to work with. But I need a linux so small I could put the shelter's required Chrome browser on it and still have room for things to work well. At this moment I'm typing on a Chromebook I bought for $5 at a yard sale and also turned into a Linux laptop. It has 16g ssd and about 80% of it is full running Mint Cinnamon's latest version.

Love your video but the lint on the display triggers my ocd

For those who can't stand the yacking. Like so many Ytubers do. God thank you. There are tutorials that releaves of the pain to go back and forth in these crummy show.

how did you download itunes?

I know I'm late because mint 22 is out. Thanks 73

Yay Ga nome that's how I pronounce it and here is another one x fice for XFCE . And ma tay for Mate' now that we touched on pronunciation. Thanks I like mint but never thought about a Steve Jobs laptop not this new junk they make today . 73

93 was when I first tried linux and it was slackware for me. ran it for years. found gentoo....that amused me and worked with my interests. along came debian about 20 years ago and no matter how many other distros I flirt with, I always return. Just today I paved my desktop and gave endeavor a whirl. Their i3 defaults are nice but I'm really just not that into arch btw. So as I type this, deb stable with backports gets installed. We are funny creatures of habit :)

How to destroy a Sharpie 101.

I use arch btw

its amazing how easy and educational veronica explains, english is not my mother language yet i can easily learn in your videos, thanks!

I would like to see that test with audio and video on fedora kde plasma :)

@ Veronica Explains : another snag i just hit. I followed the ssh-copy-id command and it copied the public key to my debian 12 server..but when I try to ssh into my debian 12 server it is asking for the server password and not the passphase. I rebooted the server just in case, but same result still asking for the server password. Not sure what went awry. Also trying to setup Remmina to do the ssh into the server, it's asking for the passphrase when I use Remmina but it doesn't connect. With Remmina I get : "Could not start ssh session. Socket error: disconnected" SMH I rebooted my local client machine and Logged into the Mint 21.3 cinnamon rather than under ICEWM and now logging into Debian 12 server under Remmina works.

@ Veronica Explains : what do you do when you try to do the "sudo systemctl enable sshd" and it comes back with error : "Failed to enable unit: Refusing to operate on alias name or linked unit file: sshd.service" so this command gave an error when trying to follow your video. I have Debian 12 Standard installed on my Tiny Lenovo M710q. How to correct this? Edit : hmm okay, I rebooted my Deb 12 server, and the ssh daemon service started on reboot when checking the sshd status. Not sure if I needed to do that "sudo systemctl enable sshd" step.
