Farooq | فاروق [Master Patata]<p>A <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/reboot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>reboot</span></a> is a solution to many tech problems. But if you are on <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a>, did you know you need to reboot only if your kernel has changed? Otherwise you can do a "soft reboot" and get the same thing. You need to kill the init process and make it respawn. It varies from distro to distro but on <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>systemd</span></a> ones, you can do <code>systemctl soft-reboot</code> and it'll do the job for you.</p><p>Also if you have problem with your graphical shell, you can simply restart your graphical stuff. Not even a soft reboot is needed. For instance if your display manager is lightdm like me, simply do <code>systemctl restart lightdm</code>. </p><p>I think this applies to other <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/unixlike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>unixlike</span></a> operating systems with the similar kernel and system architecture as Linux. Maybe <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/BSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BSD</span></a> people can share their experience?</p><p><a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/techtips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>techtips</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/linuxtips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>linuxtips</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>opensource</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/foss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>foss</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/operatingsystem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>operatingsystem</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>freebsd</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/openbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openbsd</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/unix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>unix</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/unixclone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>unixclone</span></a></p>
