Macbook Air wireless card replacement? in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

Huh that's strange because I've never had the driver break on me.

But I guess it means you've successfully installed the new card? Awesome

Might be a bit late of a reply, but I was able to install the Broadcom drivers super easy on my 2013 MBP. I know, different laptop, but same driver.

After installing Manjaro, KDE Neon, and Kubuntu, here's what I did:

I paired it with my phone and shared my internet connection, then downloaded the Broadcom driver in the repo. Done!

I also installed Aurora (Fedora immutable distro) on it, and the Broadcom drivers were already installed, so it just worked, but every time my laptop went to sleep it crashed and I had to hold the power button to start it, so I gave up on that and installed Neon

I've had several machines that refuse to update because of error 0x.

In fact, one of my kids has that happening right now.

At least that part is not isolated to OP. It doesn't happen to me anymore since I switched to Linux about a year ago

I really wanted one but couldn't afford it. Then I was able to and did. Then the Elon shit hit the fan, and now I'm stuck with a dick mobile.

I looked at trading it in for a Hyundai Ioniq 5 or something else, but I would be out thousands if I did

Extra drivers on Fedora Atomic install (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hi folks,

I downloaded Aurora (https://getaurora.dev/) the other day with the intention of installing it on my 2013 MacBook Pro.

It wasn't until I got to the install screen when I realized that I have no networking.

I currently have Manjaro installed on this laptop, and I remember having to connect via Bluetooth to my phone to download and the Broadcom BCM4360 drivers.

Is there a good way to bake that into the image prior to installing?

Either that or I can try downloading the driver over Bluetooth again, but then I'll need to use a command to somehow layer it on top of the existing image? (rpm-ostree?)

Sorry if I'm missing some command or documentation, but it is a little more confusing trying out these immutable distros.

Has anyone else out there run into this issue and worked around it?

I've had a couple of passengers open the door using the latch because they didn't know about the Open Door button.

I'm not saying it's a good design (it's dumb) but you can get out when there is no power

First time hearing about Universal Blue, but I have heard of Bazzite before.

I'm drumming up the courage to replace my Manjaro install with Aurora, and replace my Mint desktop with Bazzite+developer tools.

Is it easy/possible to install the Bazzite tweaks on top of Aurora?

Also, my desktop has an Nvidia card.. should I expect problems?

Thanks for mentioning Wyze.. looks awesome.

I ended up with a shitty Arlo set that I overpaid for, and the worst part is that they no longer sell the station where you can save video to the local network, meaning I'd have to pay for a subscription

There's a release latch on the doors beside the "open door" buttons. I guess no I've else is pointing that out?

Stop Google search when visiting intranet site? (sh.itjust.works)
 

We have a few sites on our intranet at work that I constantly end up searching on Google instead of visiting the site.

If I type in the address bar

https://site.work/customers/12345

it will navigate just fine, but if I just type

site.work/customers/12345

it executes a Google search

Is there any way for me to add a whitelist for a given hostname? I don't want to turn keyword.enabled off.. I only want to turn it off for one site.

Is this the new /r/atheism? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Since I've abandoned Reddit, I find myself looking for content similar to what I was subscribed to on there.

This looks to be the most active of the Lemmy transplants, so it looks like I'll do my lurking here instead on some other Lemmy community.

As much as a shitshow it's turning out to be over there, I am thankful for Reddit and for having had /r/atheism as a default sub, otherwise it would have taken me a little longer to become atheist
