Why not both? This blog post (https://ubuntu.com/blog/ubuntu-20-04-eol-for-devicesional) reminded Leo he needed to make a decision. Ubuntu Pro (https://ubuntu.com/pro) could let him kick the can a little. Upgrades generally go well (https://documentation.ubuntu.com/server/how-to/software/upgrade-your-release/index.html) unless you have a bunch of 3rd party repos. Always have a backup (https://rescuezilla.com) before any major changes.

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. Greetings and welcome to Hacker Public Radio. My name is Peter Paterson, also known as SolusSpider. In my spare time I like to watch scifi shows and movies, including those about superheroes. I am so looking forward to the new Superman movie by DC, with James Gunn as showrunner. In that film the actor Nathan Fillion plays a Green Lantern named Guy Gardner. Recently I remembered that I owned a Green Lantern Blu-ray animated movie with Nathan Fillion as the voice of Hal Jordan. That movie is named Emerald Knights. These days when I purchase a Blu-ray it normally comes with a digital code for Movies Anywhere . Therefore I often never play the physical disk at all. This particular disk did not have that option. I searched the streaming services for where to watch Green Lantern: Emerald Knights. Seems it is only available for rent or purchase. Obviously since I own the disk I am not going to do that. Therefore, I tried once again to try to play the disk directly on my Linux system. We do have dedicated Blu-ray players in the house. One is a Samsung unit in our living room, but that is where my Dragon-in-Law Eva lives. The other is a Playstation 3 in our bedroom. There is also the factor that I wanted to watch while doing other computer projects in my own room. My main computer system is a System76 Thelio desktop running PCLinuxOS as the operating system. Connected via USB is an Asus External Blu-Ray BW-16D1H-U player . Rather than go into detail with all that did not work, I shall instead focus on informing you what worked well on my own system. Many of the forums lead you down strange paths. It all came down to installing all I needed from Flatpak via Flathub.org Here is all that I installed: VLC : org.videolan.VLC MakeMKV : com.makemkv.MakeMKV Blu-ray java plugin : org.videolan.VLC.Plugin.bdj FDK-AAC encoding plugin : org.videolan.VLC.Plugin.fdkaac MakeMKV plugin for VLC : org.videolan.VLC.Plugin.makemkv Detailed program names are in the shownotes. To install these direct from terminal type: flatpak install (name of program) These instructions assume that you already have Flatpak installed on your Linux system. If you do not, then the Flathub website will give you guidance for your particular distro. I did have to uninstall VLC first from PCLinuxOS, which had been installed from the repo. This enabled all the relevant library files to be accessible across Flatpak. MakeMKV is a format converter, or transcoder, that converts the files on a physical disk to MKV files. Many use this program to copy their Blu-Rays to a storage medium for their own home-streaming purposes. I have yet to go down that road, as I just wanted to play the disk. Plus I don't have that much storage. I originally purchased MakeMKV for $50 in 2020. Yes, paid. It is a proprietary program, but then again so is the Blu-Ray disk encryption. These days it costs $60 for a lifetime licence. That said, MakeMKV is beta software that is free to use, and they supply a licence key that is good for a month. The only downside is that you have to visit their forum page every month to obtain the updated key code. Once all this was installed, I opened VLC, clicked on 'Open Disk...' from Media, selected Blu-ray from Disk Selection, then clicked on Play. For me it just worked! Hope it shall do for you also. It's so great to be able to directly play Blu-rays on my Linux system again. Remember the Green Lantern oath: "In brightest day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight. Let those who worship evil's might beware my power… Green Lantern's light!" Thank you so much for listening to my latest topic of interest. Please leave me a comment on the HPR show page. I look forward to hearing from you. Now go forth, take care of yourself, also your fellow neighbours, and record your own HPR show! Provide feedback on this episode.

video: https://youtu.be/qAHxogc8QTc Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have a brand new version of the Linux kernel to talk about. Well, maybe. Technically, the 6.13 release is not until this Sunday, and I'm recording this before Sunday, so we're just going to roll the dice, and hopefully it doesn't get delayed. Also, we have some distro news this week to talk about with a new release from Linux Mint, MX Linux, and OpenSUSE. We also have some security news related to the rsync project, as well as a big flaw that was found in the Linux kernel. We're gonna talk about all of this and so much more on This Week in Linux, your weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and Open Source world.

This week we talk browsers, with coverage of the Servo updates and the new Supporters of Chromium group in the Linux Foundation. The Raspberry Pi has a 16Gb model of the Pi 5, and not everyone is happy about it. KDE Plasma 6.3 has a public beta, Flatpack has released version 1.16, and Mint is on the cusp of releasing version 22.1. For tips we have kshift for quick or automated KDE re-theming, php -S for local php site testing, a quick tar howto, and pipewire-pulse for more pipewire and oulse audio fun.

It's kind of absurd. In fact, it's so much, I had to skip a few things. I have enough for two episodes this week, and more, actually, there's a little more than that. So it was kind of hard to pick what to cover. Maybe I'll make some follow-up content this coming week with some stuff to cover that we didn't have a chance to put in the episode. But this week, we have many new releases to talk about, like the Cinnamon Desktop. NixOS has a new version out. And we got an update for the fourth alpha of the System76's COSMIC Desktop.

Als Desktop-Linux für alle war Ubuntu im Oktober 2004 mit Ubuntu 4.10 mit dem Spitznamen Warty Warthog gestartet. Ubuntu trat als einsteigerfreundliche Linux-Distribution an, als die es sich schnell einen Namen machte. Dafür gab es mehrere Gründe, beispielsweise den Installationsassistenten, der nicht allzu viele Fragen stellt und ein alltagstaugliches Linux-System auf der Festplatte installiert. Ubuntu 4.10 passte zudem auf eine einzige CD und ließ sich so auch leichter verteilen. Von da an erschien zwanzig Jahre lang zweimal im Jahr eine neue Ausgabe und das bis auf eine einzige Ausnahme auch immer recht pünktlich. Und es gibt keinen Grund anzunehmen, dass sich das in nächster Zeit ändern könnte. Im Laufe seiner Entwicklung ging Canonicals Distribution so manches Mal eigene Wege, die sich nicht immer durchsetzen konnten. Die aktuellste Ubuntu-Version ist die im Oktober erschienene Jubiläumsausgabe 24.10 „Oracular Oriole“. In diesem c't uplink skizzieren wir die Entwicklung von Ubuntu mit wichtigen Meilensteinen und ergründen, wo Ubuntu heutzutage erfolgreich ist und wo nicht. Anlässlich des Jubiläums führte c't-Redakteure ein Interview mit Ubuntu-Gründer und -Geldgeber Mark Shuttleworth und befragten diesen zu vergangenen Entwicklungen und Plänen für die Zukunft. Ihre Eindrücke schildern sie ebenfalls in dieser Podcastausgabe.

Hace poco os conté los problemas que me estaba dando Fedora 40 con los certificados digitales y aplicaciones de firma y ¡hay novedades! He instalado la distribución de linux Lliurex 23 Escritorio y, hoy por hoy, puedo afirmar que podría ser mi único sistema operativo en el PC de mi escritorio. En el capítulo de hoy os cuento porqué me he decidido por Lliurex 23 Desktop, que ha venido a desbancar a Fedora por muchos motivos ventajosos para mí y que os voy a ir desgranando tanto en el audio como en estas notas. Además, os voy a dejar un completo manual de instalación de Lliurex 23 para equipos con UEFI y sin él, ya que es perfectamente usable en equipos más antiguos. Lliurex es una distribución Linux desarrollada por el equipo informático de la Generalitat Valenciana y que está presente en miles de ordenadores destinados al uso corporativo en centros educativos, hospitales, bibliotecas, etc. Para mí, la gran ventaja de usar esta distribución es que incorpora Plasma KDE como entorno de escritorio, prescinde de Snap en favor de Flatpak y usa la paquetería .deb de Ubuntu Jammy (si la activamos desde Repoman). Todo ello hace de Lliurex 23 una combinación ganadora para mí. Os dejo una completa documentación de instalación y personalización de Lliurex 23 así que, no dejéis de consultarla en el siguiente enlace - ⁠https://telegra.ph/190-Instalaci%C3%B3n-Lliurex-23-Desktop-07-21 Los comentarios siempre son bienvenidos y estimulantes.

We're trying out Rhino Linux—a unique take on rolling Ubuntu with AUR-like powers and other surprises.

We get the inside scoop on SouthEast LinuxFest, and share a few stories from the early days of the Linux community. Special Guest: Noah Chelliah.

Ubuntu gets serious about the immutable desktop, red flags from Red Hat, and the little tricks Apple used to patch Wine.

Why Fedora 38 might Sway you to try it; and how it runs on the MacBook M1 Max.

Ubuntu makes its anti-Flatpak stance official, while KDE and GNOME team up to turn Flathub into a universal Linux app store. Plus, we try the Intel Arc GPU. Could this new hardware make Linux bulletproof?
