Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    Sounds familiar

    I can't get sound to work probably on bookworm with an pretty old (10 yrs) system. It's so confusing between pipewire, pulseaudio and alsa.

    I just learned yesterday, that you have to switch vulkan packages (including lib32 version) if you switch to proprietary nvidia driver 😂 only to learn that I don’t have enough RAM for cyberpunk, after it finally started..

    2x16gb is on its way 🥳

    Oh. Explain this one to me. Might be why I'm getting absolutely shit fps in helldivers

    I found out by checking installed packages using yay vulkan and saw that vulkan-nouveau (and lib32 version) where installed and lib32-nvidia-utils where missing (nvidia utils was installed) Installed lib32-nvidia-utils, removed both nouveau vulkan packages and clean dependencies using yay -Yc After reboot, it was working.

    On KDE you can check vulkan in the tool that is linked in the about page in the settings. But maybe only 64bit version, steam uses 32bit.

    Thanks!!! I use mint but I'm sure it'll be similar. I'll take a look tonight after work. I have a 1060 but I should be getting 60fps stable 720p low at least. My poor laptop is cooking itself trying to run the wrong software packages lmao

    How about NixOS where the OS automatically installs the correct software and chooses the right settings. Then you have the time fiddle on your config for hours 🌈

    Re-installs are for ~~scrubs~~ windows users. We don't do that here. SSH from other machine, chroot from live usb, switch to TTY or even UEFI interactive shell. Fix your shit, and get to understand how it works while at it.

    Being able to do this is why Linux is so amazing. If Windows finds a corrupt file and can't repair itself, you gotta find the package it's part of (Windows update catalog), or create an ISO that's updated to do an offline repair. If the registry gets fucked, good luck fixing that.

    Hah. I'm sure once I read the rest of the responses I'll see the observation that 1 is just a slow route to 2

    Reminds me of when I started using git lol.

    Classic Scylla and Charybdis. Good luck on your odyssey.
