For the HP Prodesk G4 (and other HP models) if the Keyboard or Mouse isn't working in the UEFI Firmware or Grub menus the workaround in the JetKVM is to go to:

Hardware -> Settings -> USB Devices

and select Keyboard Only in Classes.

There is something wonky with HP devices USB HID support at Boot that means it won't detect JetKVM USB HID devices if the Classes option is set to more than one item in the Classes list.

Weird 🤔🤷‍♂️

What do tariffs mean for computing?

Linux.

New computers are going to be slow to arrive. Cost twice as much.

Install linux, save your perfectly fine hardware from the landfill.

All your old computers will work fine until DOGE is wearing orange onesies or the power goes off forever.

@Ruth_Mottram #vivaldi seems pretty tight, if I can break something I will. As for #linux & #quant I'm still waiting on the #USB boot . They sent me 5 install disks, how very quaint and totally useless as I've no readers/burners on any of my kit. Their download / install from the #web don't work either. Go figure! Tempted to write my own but haven't ten years to waste. Now 70+ was writing code in the early 70's, lol.

In limbo a bit with my Linux plans. Turns out I've cough misplaced all of my useful USB drives. #SomewhereSafe. The only one I can find is 2Gb and I need 8Gb for CachyOS's Live USB. I've got a new one coming today with the new backup SSD. Sadly, it's not shaped like a penguin. I did look.

Funnily enough, the 2Gb USB has a Live Install of Antergos Linux on it. That was my previous (failed) attempt to move to Linux back in...I want to say 2016-18-ish? But in that case the team making Antergos broke up and the project died, which was an awful loss because it was one of the most advanced and user-friendly distros of the era. I used the abandoned corpse for a while longer but when that broke my heart broke with it and I slunk dejectedly back to Windows. A community-run project arose from the ashes and became EndeavourOS, which you may have heard of. When choosing Garuda I did look at Endeavour but they take a minimalist, bare-bones approach (though still more than Arch itself) whereas Garuda had muscles, skin, hair, tattoos...

CachyOS happenings should kick off tonight around tea time [GMT](

kitty.socialGlowing Cat of the Nuclear Wastelands (@deathkitten@firetribe.org)@Uraael@kitty.social Speaking of live boot usbs, you're not cool enough to have a *penguin* usb drive, are you? (📎2) RE: @deathkitten@firetribe.org Thank you. :blobsmilehappyeyes: Hehe, sounds like you "forgot" maybe a little subconsciously there. I'm already doing research to give myself the best chance, but saving my data/cloning the drive then totally wiping it for a fresh start seems to be the simplest way forwards. Gonna give Cachy a trial run first, if I can LiveBoot it from a USB (assuming I can find my USBs...) RE: ...

#mad ? #language #linux I ordered and paid for a #Linux starter pack on a #USB stick. They have sent me 5 cds/DVDs. I said on my order, "I do not have a cd drive on any of my kit". ? do people not read anymore? & no, won't be trying to transfer the files on the cd's onto a USB stick. Experience tells me i. this won't work ii. it will make the cd's unreadable on anything but the original device. & please don't suggest downloading from the #Linux site. Tried 3 times, each time, 'fail to install'.
