Sekai (世界) is the kanji for “the world”. That’s a great word because of the scale that it designates.
One can use xrandr to adjust screen brightness. However, the factor (default to 1.0) is relative to the current brightness. How to enable the brightness adjust keys / on the keyboard under Xubuntu 18.04?
Toz’s post on Ubuntu Forum works like a charm. The default value
for GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX is an empty string. Changing it to
acpi_backlight=vendor and updating the GRUB has solved the
problem since the next boot.
I correctly set up the system configuration file manager GNU Stow and the version control system (VCS) Git on my Fujitsu Lifebook so that the former can automatically install system configuration files like modules, whereas the later can track the code in those files.
What I mean for correctly is that in the ssh folder of the remote
dotfiles repo, there is neither SSH key files nor entries
representing SSH keys in the gitignore file. You may view
Jan Uhlik’s dotfiles on GitLab as an example.
My Linux Mint 18.3 installed on Clevo N240GU was a long-term support (LTS) version. Although the official page didn’t recommend an upgrade for its own sake, I still performed it as a result of my conversation with a technician in a computer store. He thought that the display problem in the current version would be fixed in this upgraded version.
The old version of Linux Mint couldn’t detect the onboard Intel
graphics card. Therefore, sensors reported a higher CPU temperature
and the display resolution couldn’t be correctly configured.
Two months ago, the Win* 10 installed on my old laptop crashed with
blue screen on startup. Two weeks ago, I created a Xubuntu 18.04
LTS 64-bit Live USB and set up the dualboot. However, the fan
was still giving out consideralbe noise and heat under Xubuntu 18.04
(installed in /dev/sda7).
They’ll simply buy a new PC. This had given rise to industrial parks in Guiyu (貴嶼), one of the world’s largest e-waste village. I’m so shocked to see that Hong Kong appears on the top of the linked article.
[Read More]Easy Linux tips project recommends users to enable their firewall. However, this blocks all incoming traffic by default. If one wants to test the site on mobile devices, one will need to add a few rules to UFW.

After using Win 7 & 10 for six years on my Fujitsu LH532 , Windows 10 often falls into blue screen. Sometimes, it won’t even start up.
Hoping to give a second life to my old , I’ve decided to try this popular lightweight distro.
I followed the instructions from Danatela’s question, including
the optional setup of separate /var and /tmp partition.

Hello World! This is my new GitLab page powered by Hugo. I’m setting up this blog to practise my math, foreign languages and IT skills.
My original goal is to set up a personal blog for posting math.
I used to work with Octopress, but resolving the dependencies and other technical issues had actually took much more time and effort than expected. As a result, I digressed a lot from my studies to look into those problems.
