    I moved from a Ryzen 2600 + Nvidia 1030 GT config to a Ryzen 5600G. It was a pure-CPU-only swap. I kept the same RAM and same motherboard (Asus B450 Strix). The 5600G was $120 at the time. 40% CPU...

    Re: Which ports to involve with firewall?

    For high security, block everything coming in and everything going out. Then open outbound ports in the firewall that are needed for the specific things you do.

    For example, do you want to...

    That is how professionals manage all their servers around the world.

  7. Re: Which tools can I use in place of wmctrl and xdotool in Wayland? Revived

    cnee/xnee doesn't care about the app - or even if there is an app under it. It can be a browser or not. Sounds just like AutoKey.

    As for scripts - WMs almost always have a capability of...

    Well, perhaps you need a better hypervisor then?

  9. Re: Which tools can I use in place of wmctrl and xdotool in Wayland? Revived

    ydotool does many things that xdotool did, but not all of them.
    KDE has some specific capabilities that Gnome-based DEs don't provide, but the ones in KDE are impressive.

    I've never used AutoKey....

  14. Re: I can't figure out how to get full screen. Please help!

    Resolutions are limited to what will fit inside the window. If you don't run the VM in full-screen mode, it won't show 1920x1080 as possible. That's step one, then it should be possible to select...

    Are you sure you need to use the -d sat option? Sometimes it isn't needed with USB.

  16. Re: I can't figure out how to get full screen. Please help!

    Not really a Linux question. Mostly a VMware question. I haven't used VMware Workstation since the 1990s, but almost all of the GUI-based hypervisors like it work the same way.

    This is a terrible idea and you are likely to break your computer.
