Could I keep this repo?

Yes, but why? You can add it at any time again.

Do you think I install it once and never update again? Keeping the repo I could receive new updates from it if there is any. On Ubuntu/Debian, we rarely remove a repo once we added it.

I have enough RAM so I set 25.

So it's not the default value? I want to know the default value. If it's already 60 then it must be some bug in the kernel itself. But it seems not worth to investigate any further. I will wait for the new release of ROSA.

kernel bug 12309?

Код: Выделить всё

cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
25

Don't know about this bug. But this value of swappiness is not right. It should be set to 60. Why the number 25 was chosen from the beginning? Is there any reasons behind it or it's just poor default?

After successfully installing the packages, the system itself should clear the directories

So the options on Software Manager frontend just does nothing? If these checkboxes are useless then I will not care about them any further.

Could I keep this repo? The last command seems about removing it.

Do you often install packages? If not, then you don't have to worry about it. Yes. I'm installing/removing packages very often. At the first glance even if you have read as many reviews as you can, you still can't know for sure the software really suits you or not. You have to try it. If it doesn't...

Try this command sudo swapoff -a && sleep 3 && sudo swapon -a instead of reboot I want to solve this completely instead of a trick. It's very laggy so even move your mouse is too lag let alone launching a new terminal emulator to run this command. The only thing I could do is a reboot (also via the...

Where is the location of download packages cache

Код: Выделить всё

ls /var/cache/urpmi/{partial,rpms}

Thanks. Is there any command to clean it for me like apt clean on Debian? Is it safe for me to just delete it manually?

Just don't use this command.

Then how to keep your system clean after you uninstalled a package? What is the equivalent of apt autoremove on ROSA? Or I have to accept leftovers as a fact and have to plan very carefully before installing anything?

Options about cleaning downloaded packages after they get installed and list orphaned packages after package removal are unreliable. Sometimes the options get reset each new launch of the front-end back to be unchecked. This make me wonder if they really worked or not. Where is the location of downl...

Just find out engrampa with thunar archive plugin is unreliable when splitting file. With the 7z format even if we chose a different part size it still default to 2G each part. Maybe file-roller a better substitute? file-roller dragged in many dependencies compared to engrampa. Perhaps just fix engr...

It seems everything get cached in the memory and in order to do so existing processes must be paged to swap. After the files copying/moving was done existing processes must be moved back from swap to memory so this caused lagging. I tried other Linux, altLinux, to be clear, and it doesn't have such ...

VirtualBox 6.0 is outdated and no longer supported. The Guest Additions ISO is not included with VirtualBox itself, has to be downloaded from the internet. The download of this ISO is always failed, seemed because this VirtualBox version is EOL-ed so the link moved. The result is I can't install the...

xarchiver is unreliable. engrampa is more full featured and lightweight enough. When you extract an archive using xarchiver, it will be silent as nothing happening until the archive is actually extracted. With engrampa, at least you have a progress bar show up to know that it's doing something.

Only Java 8 available in the repository and it's an outdated build of Java 8.

Registering on this forum is too much trouble for me. Even when I chose British English as the language the forum still asks me in Russian. After too many failed attempts and hours researching finally I could have a forum account
