State owned means the state wants to control open source, can’t see how this can possibly be a good thing, you know it will mean funding with conditions.

If worse comes to worse, you can always just remove the symlink of /etc/resolv.conf which presently will point to something in /run/systemd, and replace it with a static file with known good name servers in it. You’ll lose having a DNS cache but at least your machine will function.

@maliciousonion You can go into network manager and specify different working name servers, you can cat /etc/resolv.conf to make sure it is sane.

Fact that you can still ping but not resolve means your name servers aren’t set right.

Depending upon how much you have customized it, you could just copy the entire OS, adjust various config files for the new partition UUID’s.

@eugenia I believe this is true for the paid version but I believe the free version does.

“The Only caveat is that the free version of DR on Linux can’t work with H.264 or H.265 encoded files.” this actually again depends upon ffmpeg and can be fixed by compiling these protocols into it. The free version does whatever ffmpeg does because it uses it for it’s codec.

@entropicdrift Not that I am aware of, I searched for some before I went to the effort of chasing down all the libraries and compiling myself and wasn’t successful at finding one.

@entropicdrift It is not a complete build, many codecs are not compiled in.
