  • UPDATE 2, because i am too impatient, it seems.

    Solved this, now that i am at the machine with the “issue” - turns out i had to log out and in again to make this work…

    Obligatory didyoutryturningitoffandonagain.gif ;)

    1. Go to “System Settings” -> “Wi-Fi & Internet”
    2. Underneath the list of networks/devices theres a settings icon, click that
    3. Deselect “Show virtual connections”
    4. In the settings menu the docker bridges etc. will disappear immediately, for them to disappear in the status icon overview i had to log out-and-in to make them disappear as well.

    HTH








  • nvidia has always been hostile to open source, as far back as i can remember.

    back when nvidia bought 3dfx they took down the source code for the open 3dfx drivers within days, if not on the same day. i remember because i had just gotten myself a sweet voodoo 5 some weeks before that, and the great linux support was the reason i chose it… of course the driver code survived elsewhere, but it told me all i needed to know about that company.

    also: linus’ rant wasn’t just a fun stunt, it was necessary to get nvidia to properly cooperate with the open source community if they want to keep making money running linux on their hardware.
