cloned drive using Clonezilla

by Brian E. Lavender

Hey Everyone, I used clonezilla to clone my spinning disk drive with dual boot Windows/Fedora to an SSD. I did disk to disk and had it automatically expand to the larger drive. The steps are fairly straight forward! https://clonezilla.org/show-live-doc-content.php?topic=clonezilla-live/doc/… Brian -- Brian Lavender http://www.brie.com/brian/ "There are two ways of constructing a software design.

Need a KDE and OpenSuSE expert

by ??? ###

Recent update to my Tumbleweed broke KDE. The install is on an HP laptop. I'm worried that this update will also break things on two other computers. Willing to pay reasonable fees to fix and/or advise. Thanks *--* *Let it be known that my mind is as quick, sharp and strong as a steel bear trap,* * and it is in no way my fault that it has been left out in the rain, rusting it beyond* * all practical use.*

spinlocks

by Brian E. Lavender

I was checking the kernel output messages of my Xen VM and I saw the following message. "Preventing Guests from Spinning Around" It made me think of the song "Spin me right round like a record player" Then I found the research paper "Preventing Guests from Spinning Around" https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Thomas_Friebel/publication/200014431_L… The work you have to do to keep from spinning, and spinning, and spinning! These are all entertaining thoughts. Brian -- Brian Lavender http://www.brie.com/brian/ "There are two ways of constructing a software design.

Full stack development with Srping boot and React

by Brian E. Lavender

I think the book a friend told me about was the following. Full Stack Development with Spring Boot and React by Juha Hinkula https://www.packtpub.com/product/full-stack-development-with-spring-boot-an… It appears that there is a new version of this book as well. https://www.packtpub.com/product/full-stack-development-with-spring-boot-3-… I was looking at it and it says to install node js. This is where I think I had the stumbling point. Node JS is packaged in Fedora, yet node is a package manager itsself. I seemed to become a question of getting the correct dependency version. It appears that Node Version manager is the way to go! https://developer.fedoraproject.org/tech/languages/nodejs/nodejs.html I tried the first portion of the book that has you go to the Spring IO project generator and it now targets Spring Boot 3.2.2. I imagine the code samples still have the Spring 2.0 tools. Well, that's some food for thought if anyone is interested.
