What's a good place to get started using Linux? I'm not tech illiterate, but also not at Comp Sci.

I just got Ubuntu running on a RasPi, and gonna mess around.

I'm willing to out in the work.

Which keyboard are you using?

The standard keyboard on #GrapheneOS

```Version 13

com.android.inputmethod.latin

versionCode 30

targetSdk 30

minSdk 21

Installed: 1 Jan 2009; 00:00```

Also, to backup my nsec key I need to input a passphrase I never set??

Common issue with that keyboard. Try using AnySoftKeyboard

OK thanks, re nsec behind a passphrase I never set?

Much appreciated: Settings > System > Languages and Input > On-screen keyboard > keyboard > text correction, seems to have fixed it...

I am trying anysoft to learn dvorak.

I use the AOSP keyboard that comes with Lineage.

I'll try the one you suggested.

Thank you!

Works like a charm!

Thank you 😀

OK short answer is reinstall a *headless* Ubuntu server

Be ready to try new things e.g ipfs, nmap, nostr, bitcoind, ssh

[TAB] is your friend

This is the original post, remove the ``` as they are not part of the terminal command. You can try this if you want an encrypted external drive for your raspi, which is a very good idea:

Get the Libby app, a library card and read Linux Format magazine free in the app:

Also change the SSH host keys as they are preconfigured (the same) on all downloads on some ARM devices and it goes without saying change the root passphrase.

```

cd /etc/ssh/

mkdir insecure_old

cp ssh_host* insecure_old

rm /etc/ssh/ssh_host_*

dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server

service ssh restart

```

Change directory `cd` and make directory `mkdir` then copy these files `cp` using the wildcard for all `*` and remove `rm` then generate new ssh keys `dpkg` and `restart` the service with the old ssh keys in folder `insecure_old`.

Thank you!
