I tried both flatpak Steam and the non-flatpak one which comes with Bazzite. I gave it access through flatsel like usual, but when I tried to add the drive from within steam it just sat there doing nothing.
I have not encountered this issue on other distros.
Actually I don’t have an igpu, I have an rx6600 and an i5 10400f.
I’m currently using Aurora-dx, is the switcheroo patch available there too ?
Rather than rebasing, would there be a way to to layer the Bazzite Optimizations (Kernel & scheduler Optimizations for gaming, not Lutris etc) on top of aurora-dx?
I have tried Buyvm when I was getting into selfhosting during the pandemic.
They were pretty cheap too, not sure about the pricing these days but you should take a look.
Hehe, any kind of ricing can be taken too far.
Funnily enough I recently switched from WM’s to DE (and KDE plasma at that) so that I don’t spend entire days adjusting making pointless window border customization and autostart scripts that are already taken care of by a Desktop environment.
That said, I cant live without my keybinds so I’ve replicated the same on my Plasma setup.
Is it an upgrade over TST ?
I believe there is an add on called “Tab stash” or something like that on firefox. It stashes tabs so that the use can restore them later.
It’s been some time since I last used it. seeing your comment just reminded me of it. Thanks
You can try Floorp browser (based on firefox) it hides the default tab bar and looks similar to vivaldi browser.
Also it has tree style tabs built in, you just have to enable it.
As someone from India, I agree with you.
I guess people just want to use what everyone else uses. Using something different than windows is instantly assumed to be very difficult.
I even showed my friends how they can play games on linux instead of having their laptops get stuck while using windows 11 , but they still won’t even consider trying it.
Btw if you don’t mind - do you play apex legends ? (Judging by your username)
I have a similar issue but for me the black screen comes at random times when I open, close or move my windows or mouse.
I found a temporary fix for it by checking out the archwiki amdgpu page
But it still occurs , especially when I wake up my computer after suspending it.
I have heard good things about Mabox linux, although it’s based on manjaro.
Alternatively one could also try ‘Arco linux’ it’s pretty good.
Haha yeah, zypper is so damn slow. I thought about trying dnf in opensuse but didn’t want to risk breaking my install.
Where my openSUS at ?
Some of my favourites are Void Linux, Artix and Opensuse Tumbleweed
Void was my first non-systemd distro, and it was super snappy as well. Some packages may not available but overall I had a really great experience with it. It also offers a version with the musl C library. Pretty cool if you ask me.
Opensuse tumbleweed is an overall a great distro, it’s one of my favourites. Also I noticed that many people have recommended it and that’s for a good reason. It’s installer isn’t that user friendly but I would prefer it over Fedora’s installer any day. ( I haven’t tried the last 3 iterations of Fedora, so it might have changed now )
Artix is well… arch with different init systems. Nothing too crazy. Its what I have been daily driving for the past year or so.
Kakoune should also be added under Text editors.
Yazi is a good terminal based file manager
nnn is another file manager
rtorrent for a terminal based torrent client
nushell - a different kind of shell.
starship prompt
weechat for IRC
Xps 13 is a great laptop. Personally I would install arch or artix in it.
Assuming that you are dualbooting from a single storage device - If you have some money to spare go and buy a second ssd. Keeping both OSes in separate storage devices will result in far lesser chances of screwing up.
I usually have 10 workspaces on all my setups. 2 of them will be unoccupied, so whenever I leave my desk I switch to that empty workspace (when nobody is around). When I come back my comfortable desktop welcomes me with a wallpaper that is easy on the eyes. Thats pretty much the only time I actually look at the desktop , apart from a brief moment after login of course.
That would be one helluva evil plan.
Have you tried Floorp yet ? It’s pretty good, you may find some things really neat coming from Vivaldi.
