#Voidlinux introduces itself as 'based on the Linux Monolithic Kernel', as if people know what kernels are, and understand monolithic vs micro, but just needed an introduction to Linux in particular.
Supercharge your business' computing infrastructure with Void Linux: Enterprise Edition!
Ho deciso di passare a #voidlinux e ne sono al momento pienamente soddisfatto. Ci devo ancora lavorare, ma la trovo un ottima distribuzione.
Ho fatto alcuno test veloci con #steam e #lutris
quest' ultimo sono riuscito a farlo funzionare solo installandolo da #flatpak
Comunque #finalfantasyxiv gira decisamente bene.
Will using Void Linux turn me into a furry
hmmm. maybe I am to stupid. I created a vfat /boot/efi partition, but #voidlinux won't boot
@thelinuxcast how longs it been now? How long do you have left of #OpenSUSE ? You should give #voidlinux another go when you’re done. I think it works really well as a far more stable version of Arch with some nice changes.
@inlovewithpda I use it as my daily driver at the moment. 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.
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.
@itsfoss
at the moment #voidlinux
@thomholwerda I'm sure it goes without saying, but #Voidlinux still has my vote as your replacement for Fedora.
I think it's about time I ditched Arch Linux for Gentoo. Arch has gotten easier and I've gotten bored with it. Once I've settled to Gentoo, I'd have Void Linux scratch my "Arch Linux" itch
I mean, I've already explored Linux distros with different inits. I don't think anything can stop me when I have Arch, Gentoo, and Artix wiki handy
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.
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.
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.
Anyone that maintains a linux distro, how did you get into it? What do you do day to day? And how many hours a week would you say you spend on it?
I’m really enjoying void and would love to contribute but have no idea how to go about it.
@joel I have exactly the same experience with Void Linux. I love the distro so much, except the merging of the PRs for the packages. Or well, the lack of merging of PRs to be frank. #void #voidlinux
anyone know a good screenshot tool that’s available via xbps, and works with sway?
So.. apparently LibreWolf isn't available in #voidlinux thanks to their policy:
"Browser forks, including those based on Chromium and Firefox, are generally not accepted. Such forks require heavy patching, maintenance and hours of build time."
I really hope 802.11ac/ax shows up in the FreeBSD 802.11 stack soon for my Intel AX201. I originally stuck Void on here because I wanted a laptop I could play Steam/WINE games on and at the time FreeBSD didn't support my Intel Iris Xe chipset and I didn't want to have to deal with the enshittification of systemd so I went with Void, but if FreeBSD ran all that I need and support Wireless properly, I would switch in a heartbeat.
Void Linux users... buckle up
**xbps-tui**: A TUI for the xbps package manager.
Supports search, filter, package info & more!

@midtsveen Probably #NixOS but #VoidLinux would also be a strong contender
