Elive 3
In a bout of insomnia, I booted my laptop with Elive and discovered that it had been updated with a feature to notify me if my HD has a problem. Wow! Plus, this live wallpaper is simply gorgeous! The Elive signature live wallpaper changes depending on the time of the day. I hope I don't have to be up at 1AM to be able to see it, hehe.
OpenMandriva Lx
After installing OpenMandriva Lx 4 Beta (and accidentally erasing my home partition in the process), I decided to re-install OpenMandriva Lx 3.03. The process took some time because of the updates, but it was worth it.
PCLinuxOS and iBus
I discovered yesterday that PCLinuxOS can now use iBus as the IME. That was great because I had been using SCIM so far and it is complicated to enable. Now I can use iBus for Japanese. Yay!
Mageia 6
My daughter had been sad because, on her desktop, the Steam client running on WINE was not working properly. That was a problem because one of her favorite games is a Windows-only game that could only be played with WINE... Not even Proton could run the game.
Well, I ran the Steam client in WINE and the issue was rectified. Now my daughter can play her game after a long wait.
Fedora 30
I still do not get the reason why the root partition gets full so fast... I need t keep looking.
A blog to compile what I have learned (and what I am learning) about Mandriva (and GNU/Linux in general) since 2009, when I migrated. Current distros I'm using: OpenMandriva Lx ROME 5.0, Mageia 9, MX 19, Manjaro 23.1, and Elive 3.

About the partition problem, I remember once my MEPIS box got something similar due to a bug that produced lots of temporary files.
ResponderEliminarMaybe it is the same. OR maybe it's the update duplicates... Anyway, happy belated anniversary!!
