I am buying a friend’s PC for games. I want to avoid windows if at all possible, and I’m wondering what people’s experience using Proton in Linux for gaming has been. Are there certain publishers who use libraries Proton doesn’t handle well? Are there distros to avoid using with proton? Any other notes I should be aware...

Are there any good tools for listing your current programs, maybe exporting settings etc. Listing hidden settings and save locations would be great too....

Is Termius the only cross platform emulator that includes Android as one of the platforms? It is quite good, in my limited experience, but too expensive for a hobbiest. I like that I can use my Linux desktop, MacOS laptop, and Android tablet/phone and the UX is the same across them all. The sync (trial for free, then charge) is...

Something ive been wanting for a while is a highly portable linux device like a phone or small tablet but obviously running fully flegde linux....

Is it just me or fonts really look better on GNOME and other (gtk DEs)? With the same font smoothing/anti-aliasing settings, text in GNOME is smoother and more similar to MacOS fonts....

At the moment I am using Debian Bookworm and I can setup/configure 100% of my setup automatically everything via Ansible. (Only thing left after the Ansible script is login to my online accounts/email which I would rather not automate.)...

Does anyone know if a Linux program that is similar to URLCheck?...

People was using Weston with Intel Laptops as it used less power many years ago. Samsung was using Fedora+Wayland for Watches and TV’s i was thinking Arch or Fedora for a new AMD laptop?

I recently switched to iDrive for my backup needs but couldn’t work out how to get it running on Linux. iDrive provide a series of scripts for Debian machines but this is obviously no good for non Debian systems (using Nixos here). I read about a method of hacking the scripts so they think you’re running Debian, but this...

Tldr; Have tested multiple different Ryzen 7000 configurations on various kernels, and the power draw just seems really bad....

I just updated to KDE 5.27.8 and now icons don’t light up, the date doesn’t light up, and neither do icons on the taskbar anymore....

As title says. Fresh installation of Fedora Workstation 38. All packages are up to date. I am simply not able to add my Google acount. It stays on this screen forever, with the top spinning indicator loading all the time....

I wanna try out Linux for the first time with no clue what I’m doing and this seemed like a good starter for what I need it for what do you all think?

I seem to have a problem with internet connectivity. I use NetworkManager with Proton VPN on an Arch KDE system. The wifi and VPN stay connected, but every once in a while the upload and download rates will go down to, at most, a few hundred KiB/s. The issue can be solved temporarily by disconnecting and reconnecting the VPN,...

Edit- I set the machine to work last night testing memtester and badblocks (read only) both tests came back clean, so I assumed I was in the clear. Today, wanting to be extra sure, i ran a read-write badblocks test and watched dmesg while it worked. I got the same errors, this time on ata3.00. Given that the memory test came...

Hi Linux- how important is it to install, say Debian, the version that is specifically made for your hardware? For example, if I have a Rock64 SBC, do I have to install Debian-rock64.img or can I just go with Debian-arm64.img? Will I lose performance/features if using generic arm64 image, or conversely, will I gain...
