How long do you have left of <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/OpenSUSE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSUSE</span></a> ? You should give <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/voidlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>voidlinux</span></a> another go when you’re done. I think it works really well as a far more stable version of Arch with some nice changes.</p>

Its great if you love FOSS, it won’t have every possible program available in the main package repos though. I.e. if you want to use an application based on chromium or electron you’ll have to use a flatpack or build from source.</p><p>It uses runit as an init system though which is disgustingly fast. Its super lightweight, its very stable as rolling releases go, and xbps is a super quick package manager.</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/voidlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>voidlinux</span></a></p>

Ste5e<p>I have so much to say about my last couple hours compiling <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/PureData" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PureData</span></a> on <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/VoidLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VoidLinux</span></a> since the stock package doesn't compile with Portaudio. I climbed through the rabbit holes to get this to work, and now I'm ready for bed.</p>

Trommelspeicher<p>My T440s has got a new keyboard, from ISO to ANSI layout. Also a new trackpad, the original one is horrible and a trackpad from a T450 match perfect. And everything for less than 20€. For me a new notebook and in the moment I give <a href="https://social.anoxinon.de/tags/voidlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>voidlinux</span></a> a chance.</p>
Gandalf<p>Today I learned that on <a href="https://noc.social/tags/VoidLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VoidLinux</span></a>, one should not have the elogind service enabled, because many problems can occur.</p><p>In my case, I couldn't start any Incus containers.</p>
Tom<p>On my wife's laptop, when it was on Ubuntu 22.04 on XFCE if the laptop lid was closed to put the laptop to sleep sometimes it wouldn't resume correctly and the mouse would not register clicks and the keyboard wouldn't type unless you did Control-Alt-F1 then back to X with Control-Alt-F8.</p><p>After some more digging I discovered both TLP and ACPI were trying to suspend the laptop when you closed the lid so I disabled the suspend in TLP. Then I think I found either ConsoleKit or Upower was trying the same thing.</p><p>Anyway, her laptop had to get a minor repair (power pin became loose from the board) when it came back I reformatted it, put Void Linux on it with Mate and only the services needed and it never, ever had that suspend/resume buggy input device problem again. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ubuntu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/voidlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>voidlinux</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/xfce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>xfce</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/bugs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bugs</span></a></p>

Gandalf<p>Επανεγκατέστησα το <a href="https://noc.social/tags/VoidLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VoidLinux</span></a> αυτή τη φορά με Wayland και Pipewire. Εκτός απ' το SimpleScreenRecorder που δε δουλεύει σε Wayland (αλλά δουλεύουν άλλα ανταγωνιστικά του προγράμματα) δε βρήκα κάποιο μειονέκτημα με το Wayland, και έχει και πιο ομαλά animations όταν ανοιγοκλείνεις παράθυρα με Intel GPU.</p><p>Οι οδηγίες του Void στο θέμα του PipeWire έχουν βελτιωθεί σημαντικά, θεωρώ (τώρα τα κατάφερα, ενώ παλιότερα είχα αποτύχει).</p>

MauriceElliott🍉<p>Anyone that maintains a linux distro, how did you get into it? What do you do day to day?

I love the distro so much, except the merging of the PRs for the packages.
