Sharing from Linux to macOS

Note: The OS versions I used here are macOS Sonoma 14 Beta 3 and Fedora Workstation 38. On the first try, I was supposed to enable file sharing from macOS and access it on my Fedora machine. But Apple’s Samba did not work. So, I tried the opposite instead. Install and Setup Samba on Fedora 1 2 3 4 5 sudo dnf install samba sudo systemctl enable smb --now firewall-cmd --get-active-zones sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=FedoraWorkstation --add-service=samba sudo firewall-cmd --reload Make sure the user already exists in fedora, in my case lwgmnz@fedora.

Fedora 38 Released

Just installed Fedora 38. So far, no issues found. The default wallpaper sucks though.

Diablo Immortal on Linux

I was able to run Diablo Immortal on Linux, despite only being available on iOS, Android, and Windows. I know for a fact that I needed Wine to be able to run a Windows environment or application in Linux. But, I just found out you need to install Lutris too. For future reference, the steps are below. I am on Fedora. Install Wine 1 sudo dnf install wine Install Lutris 1 sudo dnf install lutris If Lutris won’t start, try installing it via Flatpak.

Familiarizing Linux Again Part 2

So I was able to install Manjaro KDE last night because the new USB drive was delivered yesterday. I tried to install Pop!OS but somehow I was unsuccessful. I’m glad since I really enjoyed Manjaro. The first order of business is upgrading all the packages and then I installed Google Chrome. After which I installed Thunderbird and set up my email iCloud account from Apple. This morning I was able to install Android Studio.

Familiarizing Linux Again

After more than 5 years on macOS, I’m excited that I get the chance to use Linux again. My brother gave me his old Windows laptop. Since I figured it has 1TB of disk space in it, I decided to create a Linux partition. So I asked Silicon Valley’s best for help on which distro to install. There were no clear winners though. I started out my career using Linux and Eclipse IDE for Android development.
