The monitor seems to be recommending you use mode 1280x1024. Have you tried that?

Either self-encrypting drives (if you trust the OEM encryption) or auto-unlock with keys in the TPM: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Trusted_Platform_Module#Data-at-rest_encryption_with_LUKS
Same. Well, not forced, but using Linux would just make everything more difficult. I like being able to drop to a shell and use a Linux environment with its useful utilities to manipulate stuff on my Windows PC.
Yeah, I could use mingw, but that is a pain, and I can’t just apt install
stuff.
What do you mean “doesn’t work”? Is there some error message in the log (dmesg, /var/log/messages, on the console, whatever raspbian uses)?
Still can. Only a few years ago, I would cat random things to classmates’ tty devices.
Yeah. I know of ancient AS/400 and slightly less ancient RS/6000 systems still humming along, keeping insurance companies running.
But they probably haven’t seen software updates in decades. Linux 1.0 didn’t even exist when they were new, let alone 6.7.
Is anyone actually running modern Linux on Itanium? I have never in my life even heard of anyone using those chips. I find it hard to imagine anyone still using them that isn’t running something legacy.
Delete the directory, create the file. Docker creates a bind mount as a directory if it doesn’t exist.
Is that an artificial limitation that could be resolved by third-party clients?
I make it green for an ssh session, and red when I’m root. That’s it, nothing fancy.
The data on disk doesn’t get decrypted at any time. Even if they boot it, they would still need to log in somehow.
There are attacks through DMA or extracting the decryption key from RAM, but those are not going to happen by a casual laptop thief.
Delete some of the stuff you installed, and don’t install more stuff than you have space for?
You might be able to fix it by picking the most recent of all the mixed releases and running a dist-upgrade. But this is absolutely not supported or tested. But a complete reinstall is certain to fix it.
It can easily see you’re in a VM. For example, the OVMF UEFI firmware is a dead giveaway. Nobody runs that on physical hardware.
Does Ctrl+Alt+Backspace not kill X any more (assuming you’re using X)?
Does Ctrl+Alt+Delete reboot the system from a graphical desktop? Or is that only from the virtual consoles?
I wonder if locking the session would have stopped it as well. I doubt the Alt+SysRq combos would have been useful since other random input was happening at the same time (unless the next keystroke happened to be an I, U, or B).
Partitioning doesn’t affect backups. Any modern system supports both full images and file-level backups, so even if you take a whole disk image, you can just restore /home if that’s what you want.
I would just use whatever filesystem is the default for your distro. For the root partition, usually that’s ext4. That’s a perfectly good default.
Not always. I’ve seen Linux systems keep running, and open programs work, until they need something from disk, and then either they throw an error or crash.
I’ve been using Alma for a while and been happy with it. Like RHEL types, it’s slightly behind on versioning, but that’s by design.
