Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I recommend kernel-5.4.x be promoted from /testing and to drop 4.19.x. This kernel privides better support for Ryzen CPUs, AMD X570 chipsets, and NAVI GPUs (open source AMDGPU). I do not yet have and NAVI GPU (mini-itx case), but have tested basic function on Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro Wifi with Ryzen 7 3800X, 480GB SSD Sata6, 16GB DDR4. Of note:
Intel Corporation Wi-Fi 6 AX200 requires kernel >5.1
fan speeds ITE IT8688 - support not present in lm-sensors (yet?)
It seems that the Mako python package requires markupsafe at runtime.
on a clean -current install, running pip check returns:
Code:
# pip check
DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 will reach the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 won't be maintained after that date. A future version of pip will drop support for Python 2.7. More details about Python 2 support in pip, can be found at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/develo...thon-2-support
mako 1.1.0 requires markupsafe, which is not installed.
# pip3 check
mako 1.1.0 requires markupsafe, which is not installed.
markupsafe can always be installed from SBo to for this requirement and its not needed to build mesa which I believe is what Mako in Slackware is mostly used for. I recall that only a few programs at SBo that need Mako also need markupsafe and it does not matter what order they are installed.
Hi, I just updated to the latest 5.4.1 kernel a machine on my FM2+ socket and a A6 processor, seems that there is a problem with video
as the console does not appear, I just can easily log in, on the console and or by ssh so I know the machine is up and running.
But on the screen after the frame buffer changes the screen resolution of the console I end up with a black screen. I will try a
nofb option in my lilo.conf to see if it solves the problem. Any other suggestions ?
