Did you get it working, if your boot is encrypted (I think) then I think you may have a hard time. Its been about 7 years since I did it. But you can have fstab and crypttab setup to pass the password.

Cryptab should help.

Alice: destroy the whole system they are here. Bob: Are you sure, that doesn’t sound correct? Alice: Apologies, my mistake. Ask me something else.

If it is a one time transfer, plug them both into a PC ,set USB as file transfer then copy the folders over

Nice

Does this count ARMv6 256MB RAM running OpenMediaVault…hmm I have to fix my clock. LOL

That’s an odd one. I never had that on OpenSUSE, did have static once though, but I think polling speed or something fixed it.

Something like fslint might be what you want. Scan folders, lists duplicates, you set how you want to deal with them. Its more manual, but I think it is what you are actually trying to achieve.

The fear is because China is known to be a spy advesary, where as google and apple (operating from the USA) would really not need to spy on it’s own government. It is really no different than the Russian maintainers being kicked off the Linux kernel dev team as a security measure.

To me the issue is tik-tok could be used to sideload data gathering for China, such as government officials camera or microphone use, beyond the worry of poisoning our society with propaganda. There have already been binary apps with malicious backdoors. Compared to a weather app that may harvest location, contacts, etc, but most likely verifiable content.

But that’s why I don’t install garbage apps, run GrapheneOS and Linux to try to minimize data gleaning.

Yeah, I meant amazing that he created all that while struggling with schizophrenia, I can only imageline the accomplishments if he was well.

It is too bad his mental health overtook him, with proper medicine that guy could have been such a much more amazing computer science dude. Although maybe the meds would have taken away his inner insight. It amazing that singled handedly he built his own OS. It is a wacky system, but still amazing

I seem to recall a Linux show where DasGeek was having a similar issue, If I’m recalling correctly it involved editing a polling value in a file.

The other commentor mentioned theirs broke after update. So it is probably that. Reason I ask about USBC to A adapter is yubikey fits either way in the adapter A side. And I have had it upside down in the adapter and not realized it.

I will have to stop manually typing ascending tricons. LOL. I have used them often in correspondence and documents. It was a technique taught in English class.

• Has it ever worked on that PC?
• Do you have pcscd installed?
• Are you using a USB-A yubikey with a USB-C adapter?

There are some. COCKPIT would probably suit most people. OpenSUSE has a GUI Services tool built into YAST
