I am currently using OpenMandriva Lx ROME and I love it. It boots and loads really fast on my AMD Ryzen laptop. Unfortunately, KDE's brightness control is not working and I have to use xrandr to control the brightness manually. The Simple Solution After reading random forums about this not-really-uncommon issue, I've successfully solved the issue by these following simple steps: Using your favourite text editor, edit /etc/default/grub In GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT remove acpi_backlight=vendor then, add amdgpu.backlight=0 Update grub: sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg Reboot the system. Now, the KDE's brightness control should work properly.

Persepolis is a powerful download manager for Linux. It isn't just a GUI frontend for aria2. Based on my experience, Persepolis performs faster than aria2. Also, of course, it is a lot more easier to use than a command line download manager. Major Linux distributions like Debian, Ubuntu & Fedora, have already included Persepolis in their official repository so you can install it easily. Unfortunately, other Linux distro, haven't included persepolis yet in their repository, OpenMandriva for example. Luckily, you are still able to install persepolis on your OpenMandriva directly using git. And it is pretty easy as well. The Steps It is quite simple to install Persepolis on OpenMandriva: Firstly, install the dependency: sudo dnf install aria2 ffmpeg youtube-dl git Then, clone from git and execute the installer: git clone "https://github.com/persepolisdm/persepolis.git"  sudo python3 setup.py install Preference Setup You might find the default Persepolis appearance  l...

Without doubt, Mozilla Firefox is the most popular web browser in Linux. It is the default web browser installed in almost all major Linux distributions currently exist. There are many ways to install Firefox on your Linux distribution. The easiest way is by using your default Linux distribution's repository. Unfortunately, Ubuntu has decided to switch to Snap to install Firefox in its official repository, and many users aren't happy with that decision. Many users then choose to find a third party repository, and or download the official Firefox binary from the official Mozilla Firefox website. However, you might find an error message when trying to run Firefox binary. You might find this following error message XPCOMGlueLoas error for file libxul.so . The Simple Solution Libxul.so exists in Mozilla Firefox folder, but it fails to load because there is a missing dependency in your Linux system: libdbus-glib-1-2. So, to solve the issue is by simply installing the package: sudo a...

What a beautiful day to live. KDE 5.27.2 has finally arrived on Kubuntu 22.04 LTS. This is indeed a really big news, because for dependency reason, Kubuntu 22.04 LTS was stuck with KDE 5.25.x. Experimental Kubuntu PPA Apparently, there is a very nice team who created what's called experimental Kubuntu PPA with a simple purpose, to backport latest KDE branch to current active Ubuntu version. Just like the tittle, it is an experimental PPA, means there is no guarantee about stability and is not recommended to install into a daily, production machine. Let's Give It a Try KDE 5.27.2 itself is a stable version released by KDE developer, means, it is supposed to run stable enough on your Linux machine. Without hesitation, I just simply install it on my Kubuntu 22.04 LTS laptop: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/experimental sudo apt update sudo apt dist-upgrade Result It is pretty stable and I don't find any major issue, or crash. I am happy with it. But the result may vary...
