MongoDB is a NoSQL database that stores data in a flexible, document-oriented format. This makes it different from traditional relational databases like MySQL or PostgreSQL. It is a powerful, scalable, and flexible database commonly used for applications that need to manage large volumes of diverse data. This article will show you how to install MongoDB on Ubuntu 24.04, manage its services, and allow remote connections on an Ubuntu VPS.

NuTyX is a French Linux distribution (with multi-language support) built from Linux From Scratch and Beyond Linux From Scratch, with a custom package manager called "cards". The package manager can install individual binary packages, a group of related binary packages (e.g. desktop packages, such as KDE or Xfce), and compile source packages from "ports". The distribution is designed for intermediate and advanced Linux users.

The pytest-mh project is a plugin that provides a multi-host test framework for the popular pytest unit-testing framework and test runner. Work on pytest-mh started in 2023 to solve a multitude of issues that cropped up for developers and testers when testing the SSSD project, which is a client for enterprise identity management. I was not happy with the state of testing of the SSSD project and wanted to create something that would increase test readability, remove duplication, eliminate errors, and provide multi-host testing capabilities, while having the flexibility to build a new API around it. Finally, I also wanted something that can be used by anyone to test their projects as well.

If you’re a Linux enthusiast or a seasoned sysadmin, you already know the importance of online privacy and security. A reliable VPN is a must-have tool in your arsenal, and ProtonVPN is one of the best options out there, due to its strong encryption, no-logs policy, and open-source transparency.

In this guide, I’ll show you how to install and set up ProtonVPN on Debian 12 (Bookworm) with the GNOME desktop environment, but it should also work with most distributions based on Debian (not Ubuntu Server or Raspbian), but they are not officially supported.

In this tutorial, we are going to explain what the ERR_CONNECTION_RESET error is and how to fix it. This issue occurs when the connection between the browser and the website (server) unexpectedly closes. The terminated connection is due to the server terminating the session before completing the data transfer. In other words, the browser sent a request to the server, and the server retrieved the website but terminated the session before the data was transmitted completely. Since the data is incomplete, the browser receives data that is not usable and displays the error.

In the following paragraphs, we will explain what exactly causes this error in the Chrome browser and what steps may be applied to fix it. Let’s get started!

Greg Kroah-Hartman has released another four stable kernels: 6.13.4, 6.12.16, 6.6.79, and 6.1.129. As usual, all users are advised to upgrade.

Security updates have been issued by AlmaLinux (bind, bind9.16, and mysql:8.0), Debian (chromium, djoser, libtasn1-6, and postgresql-13), Fedora (python3.12 and vim), Red Hat (libpq, postgresql, postgresql:13, postgresql:15, and postgresql:16), Slackware (ark), SUSE (brise, chromium, emacs, google-osconfig-agent, grafana, grub2, helm, kernel, openssh, openssl-1_1, ovmf, postgresql13, postgresql14, postgresql15, and postgresql17), and Ubuntu (gnutls28, libtasn1-6, openssl, python3.10, python3.12, python3.8, and webkit2gtk).

At the end of January we ran this article on the discussions around a set of Rust bindings for the kernel's DMA-mapping layer. Many pixels have been expended on the topic since across the net, most recently in this sprawling email thread. Linus Torvalds has now made his feelings known on the topic:

You are not forced to take any Rust code, or care about any Rust code in the DMA code. You can ignore it.

But "ignore the Rust side" automatically also means that you don't have any *say* on the Rust side.

You can't have it both ways. You can't say "I want to have nothing to do with Rust", and then in the very next sentence say "And that means that the Rust code that I will ignore cannot use the C interfaces I maintain".

The code in question seems highly likely to be merged for the 6.15 release.

Xubuntu is a community-developed operating system based on Ubuntu. It comes with Xfce, which is a stable, light and configurable desktop environment.

Ubuntu Unity is a flavour of Ubuntu featuring the Unity desktop environment (the default desktop environment developed and used by Ubuntu from 2010 to 2017). Unity debuted in the netbook edition of Ubuntu 10.10; it was initially designed to make more efficient use of space given the limited screen size of netbooks, including a vertical application switcher called "the launcher" and a space-saving horizontal multipurpose top menu bar. Ubuntu switched from Unity to GNOME in 2017, but the desktop was resurrected again as an unofficial "Ubuntu Unity Remix" in 2020. It became an official flavour of Ubuntu during the development cycle of Ubuntu 22.10 in 2022.

An official variant of Ubuntu, Ubuntu Studio is a Linux-based operating system for creative individuals in the areas of audio production, video production, graphics design, photography and desktop publishing. It makes professional audio accessible on Linux; it uses the JACK sound server and a kernel built with a low-latency patch. Up until version 20.10 Ubuntu Studio shipped with the Xfce desktop environment, but this was replaced by KDE Plasma in October 2020.
