You may have heard of Proxmox Virtual Environment (VE), or may even know what it is or have used it. For those who haven't heard of it, barely used it , or just want to know more, here are a series of articles to cover Proxmox VE in more detail. Proxmox is an open-source substitute for VMware, which is offered as a free version. Proxmox Basics As I stated, Proxmox is open-source and is a free solution for virtualization. Of course, there is a subscription-based version that allows... https://www.linux.org/threads/proxmox-ve-series-part-1-the-basics.58546/

We can now continue with the Entry Object for Python. Hopefully, you have gone over Part 1 before continuing on here. Font Since we can change the colors, why not the font as well? You need to make sure that any font you use exists on the system where the Python code is being executed. On my system, I am running Ubuntu, so I have a font named ‘ubuntu’. In the example, the label will have the text ‘Example Entry’ with the font being ‘ubuntu’: Code: e1 = Entry(font='ubuntu')... https://www.linux.org/threads/python-series-part-22-tkinter-entry-widgets-part-2.58547/

The Orange Pi RV2 is a Single Board Computer (SBC) that differs from the SBCs that have an ARM processor. This board uses a RISC-V (pronounced 'Risk-Five') processor, but we can get into that soon. Before I get into the differences between RISC-V and ARM, we need to look at the specs of the SBC itself. Orange Pi RV2 Specifications The specs are for the RV2 board and consist of the following specifications: Ky X1 8-core 64-bit RISC-V (RV64GCVB) @ 1.6 GHz GPU... https://www.linux.org/threads/orange-pi-rv2-setting-up-a-risc-v-media-server-with-ubuntu.58545/

In some situations, there may be a need for multiple mice on a system. For example, at a conference when using a system to discuss details relating to the company. The speaker may need a mouse to point things out, while others can use another mouse to point out other things. There is also a way to include the keyboard as well, but this is not part of the BASH script I wrote. You can always add in a keyboard if needed. And yes, if you have open two word processor apps, one keyboard can type... https://www.linux.org/threads/using-multiple-mice-simultaneously-on-linux-with-xinput.58544/

There are quite a few people still using Windows yet, and some that want to switch to Linux. People are comfortable with the look of Windows and dislike the Linux desktops. Now, there is Winux that looks exactly like Windows 11. NOTE: Winux 11 looks like Windows 11 or Windows 10, whichever style you choose. Winux Requirements Winux has more relaxed requirements than Windows for hardware. The Operating System requires: 3 GB of RAM (4 GB is preferred) Intel or... https://www.linux.org/threads/winux-11-a-linux-distribution-designed-for-windows-users.58122/

Most times, an updated kernel can make a system more stable by including updates and fixes to previous kernel builds. For some, you may have software or device drivers that work, or are part of your kernel, only with specific kernels, but usually this is not the case. So, to help improve stability and possibly performance, you should regularly check for updates to your kernel. In this article, I will go over installing a newer kernel, if it exists, for the following distros: ... https://www.linux.org/threads/updating-your-linux-kernel-ubuntu-centos-fedora-and-arch.58121/

When programming, sometimes you will want to let the user enter or change text. You can use the Entry widget just for that purpose. Keep in mind that only one line of text can be in the Entry object. For most programs, this can be a very important widget to use. Before we get to changing the 'look' of the entry box and its contents, we need to understand the methods used to manage the information in the Entry object. Creating an Entry Creating an Entry object is the same as... https://www.linux.org/threads/python-series-part-21-tkinter-entry-widgets-part-1.58120/

In 2024, Orange Pi released a new Single Board Computer (SBC). This is a system with an ARM processor. The specs are: Rockchip RK3588 8-core 64-bit ARM processor with 4 Cortex-A76 (2.4GHz), 4 Cortex-A55 (1.8GHz) and independent NEON coprocessor NEON coprocessor - a Single Instruction, Multiple Data (SIMD) allows the same instruction to be used on multiple elements Mali-G610 GPU Built-in 3-D GPU Compatible with OpenGL ES1.1/2.0/3.2, OpenCL 2.2... https://www.linux.org/threads/installing-ubuntu-on-the-orange-pi-5-max-with-emmc-and-nvme.58119/
