General Linux Chat and Small Questions v. I broke my Arch Install - Hardware & Software

[QUOTE=danharibo;43370355]GNU plus Linux.[/QUOTE] I really can't be arsed to say that. That name is way too long for me to pronounce.

[QUOTE=danharibo;43370355]What I was referring to as Linux is in fact GNU/Linux or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. My mistake.[/QUOTE] I wasn't talking about the userland (which is another can of worms for POSIX compliance), I was specifically separating the ideas of "Linux as a kernel" and "Linux as one of a myriad of distributions which use Linux as a kernel". Usually conflating the two is useful and harmless, but when you say "Linux which is POSIX-compliant" you bring up the distinction; the kernel, userland and entire OS need to be POSIX compliant: which part do you mean to imply is complaint? I'm not sure any one distribution is entirely compliant, certainly not if they use an old enough kernel. [editline]31st December 2013[/editline] As for saying "GNU/Linux" why not identify all other aspects of the userland in the classification? Am I running: Arch Linux Arch GNU/Linux Arch vim/GNU/Linux Arch XOrg/vim/GNU/Linux Arch i3/XOrg/vim/GNU/Linux Arch i3/XOrg/vim/GNU/Linux Arch ... ??? In the most general sense I'd prefer to say I'm using "Arch". This covers all cases, regardless of what I've decided to install. The default userland in Arch includes the Linux kernel (although distributions of Arch exist which use alternatives) and a lot of GNU crap (all of which is fairly readily replaced), so why waste the time to say "Arch GNU/Linux"?

I prefer to call it Arch

If I call it 'GNU' nobody knows what I'm talking about, but if I call it 'Linux' I feel like I'm talking about a kernel. FOSS world problems.

when talking about linux, I usually just refer to the distro being used

I just say Gentoo, and then get laughed at because people think I'm invoking the "install gentoo" meme

I want to run a home server of sorts. Maybe some media, storing files on it, running external programs on it, whatever. Wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction since some results aren't sounding too coherent. Kind of planning to run Fedora on it. No clue where to start. Question's here because of it being Linux oriented.

Question's here because of it being Linux oriented.[/QUOTE] Do you plan to have a monitor hooked up to the server? If not, Fedora might not be the best option since it targets desktop usage (at least last I checked). I'd recommend a distribution which doesn't include a full desktop and associated apps (i.e. you probably won't need XOrg, Qt, KDE, etc.). You can take your pick (and even use Fedora if you feel most comfortable with it or plan to use it partly as a desktop), but Debian/Ubuntu and their derivatives generally offer a server-oriented image. I'd plug Arch here but if you just want a home server to host media and run daemons it's probably not worth the setup. Come back with you're results and any other questions. Having a common server in your home makes some really convenient options a lot easier; to name a few: • Host your own git repos to share amongst local machines (even try [URL="http://gitlab.org/"]gitlab[/URL]) • Host your music using [url=http://www.musicpd.org/]MPD[/url] which can be controlled by any machine or even stream music over HTTP. • Avoid installing printer drivers on every machine in your home and instead let your server run one instance of [url=http://www.cups.org/]CUPSd[/url] and get a slick web interface for free. • Run an instance of [url=http://owncloud.org/]OwnCloud[/url] so you know where your cloud files are and have full control. It has a lot of nice features, like cloud contact/calander syncing, music streaming, search/sort, versioning, plugins for collaborative editing, etc. • Run backups which aren't tied to each client machine. These are just a few of the things I use my "server" for.

I know Ubuntu has a server image, but for some reason it comes across as something more intended for big business servers rather than small personal servers. I'll give the Ubuntu server a shot. Or would I be better off with trying to use the desktop image and try to control it via remote desktop? I'm approaching this with zero knowledge and am doing this for practice/learning.

Usually you will learn more if you use the command-line interface, and this is generally easier to secure. As for sync, I didn't actually use this client myself, but OwnCloud offers a [url=http://owncloud.org/sync-clients/]desktop client[/url] for popular Linux distributions as well as Mac and Windows. This is probably the best solution; my experience with Samba has been hit-or-miss with recent versions of Windows. OwnCloud also offers a (payed) Android client. [editline]2nd January 2014[/editline] From OwnCloud's page [quote] The ownCloud Sync Client is a desktop program you install on your computer. Specify one or more directories on the local machine to sync your ownCloud server, and always have your latest files wherever you are. Make a change to the files on one computer, it will flow across the others using these desktop sync clients. Find the latest version for your OS below, and read the Changelog here. [/quote]

Saved my laptop once with it when it wouldn't boot. Why? Fedora. It installs three separate partitions and LVM. Fixed the MBR, recovered my laptop to out-of-box state (since they don't bother including a Windows 7 disc), and went back to an Ubuntu-like since their installer is much easier to use.
