Operating Systems and Porting / Re: System cleaning

« on: February 02, 2020, 01:39:56 pm »

now that I see everything I don't think I can recover much space in the end, I need to increase the partition as you say, I just don't know how to do it. Trying from the disk management and doing partition redesign, I tried to set up a larger amount of space but it doesn't make me do it, can you tell me how to proceed without doing damage? Thank you

I understand, so I have to increase the root partition ... I made the automatic installation not practical and therefore I made him do everything I did not know that by default he uses 16 GB and instead need many more ... But apart from this, how do you think I can free up some space in those 16 GB? It's possible?

I rectify the previous message sorry, the directory concerned is that of the photo, "/" I removed the old kernel but I gained little. How free is that directory? Yes, I don't have much experience on Linux. I started a few months ago. I use Fedora with 16 GB of RAM and in this case a 250 GB SSD hard disk. I'll post the photo of the analysis

He talks to me about "root file system" in general almost full file system. In the analyzer I saw that the "USR" Directory is the one in red and therefore the main suspect. On Kernels you are right, in the past I have done the removal, I have to do it again now, but apart from the kernel I wanted to understand what else I can eliminate and how ...

Hello to the whole forum, after a period of use, I think we all have the classic problem of filling the "root file" on Linux and the consequent appearance of the famous message that this file must be freed. What do you recommend to do it best? I have read some guides on the internet but they have not helped me much, apart from the classic cleaning of the browser cache I do not know how to proceed to do the cleaning that the system would like ... Obviously I am not referring only to the root file but in general to the whole system, what should be done to clean everything obviously ... I also tried the "street sweeper" application but it doesn't work ...

Hello everyone, great advice thanks, Tim (mandscientist159) in the end you took the 5700 XT as well, what do you think? I have just withdrawn the new monitor as well, full 4K support, a really nice sight. I'm also testing high definition videos on YouTube. Show! You are right to say that I have to test my high-end system, but I am missing a piece to complete the start of the AE-9 which unfortunately still does not seem to be on Linux ...

VLC works quite well however, of course some discs do not read them in any case, unfortunately, especially the most recent ones, I am always talking about original material and regularly purchased in stores. I hope that updates will gradually come out to improve the situation.

In fact, for that I am cautious at the moment. I want to make sure I don't harm before updating. Let's see what happens in the next few days, in fact at the moment I don't think there is a need to update the Kernel since I have 2 versions that in the end are more advanced than what they have by default. As I said the last version was 5.3.16-ppc64le which still resides in my system, I currently have 2 versions to make the GPU work, which are 5.4 and 5.5 so I think I am ahead of them ... Having said that, do you or somebody else know about the software to connect the Android phone via USB with our Linux Power?

Then the one modified with the patch on a hardisk is this: (5.4.0-2.fc32.ppc64le)
In the other Hardisk I have this: (5.5.0-rc1 + 31)
In the second it does not carry the ppc64le extension. Both are patched to run AMD's Navi 10 GPU in my case the RAdeon 5700 XT 50 th anniversary editon. Usually Fedora does what you say or adds a version of Kernel without touching the previous one and deletes only the older one but after 3 or 4 versions ahead. I just know that there are parts of the Kernel that are in common and I'm afraid that updating I have to change the modified Kernels for that I ask how to behave ... Merklot for example said that you have to carry out that little procedure CONFIG_LOCALVERSION = " amdgpu "but I don't understand what you mean, if you have to do it as a command in the terminal or otherwise ...

Hi Xilinder, you know that command, I actually use 3 hardisks, one with Ubuntu 19.10 and the other 2 with Fedora 31 on both. In one of the two Fedora I have the Kernel 5.4.0.2, downloaded and installed with the changes already made, in the other I have the modified one that I installed through the Wiki procedure and it is the 5.5.0.rc1 +
Now I have seen that Fedora is sending Kernel updates, they update often, they are very efficient in this, the last official Fedora Kernel that I have is 5.3.16 and I don't know if now we go to 5.3.17 in any case c 'and' this update to do and before doing it I would like to know how to not affect the 2 modified Kernels that I currently have in the 2 Fedora ...

As for the Kernel, now having the version with the patch you are talking about,(5.5.0.1 or 5.4.0.2) how should we behave in front of the official updates that for example periodically releases Fedora? Do they affect our patched kernel? If so what should we do?

Hello to the whole forum, now that we have support for the new AMD Navi10 GPUs, I was wondering with which software in particular, in your opinion it is possible to exploit them a little ... I don't know much currently of the most advanced Power software, also in the gaming field, while I know there are games of a certain thickness for Linux X86, I don't know anything about what could be on Power. Of course there won't be all there is on X86 I guess but I think that in any case something interesting will be there for us too ...
