I’m a bit confused about what’s going on but as far as I understand, due to NVIDIA allowing redistribution of their blobs, nouveau can now set the clock speed of GPUs. This is giving us a huge boost in performance in nouveau....

I started to use i3 and I love it so far, and then I tried to enable i3-gaps on i3 but when I tried to enable it I receive this error I don’t understand at all…...

Edit: copying the font to /usr/local/share/fonts/ fixed it. (I downloaded Debian Xfce a while ago because of how much I dislike Snap, so I’ll soon replace Xubuntu with it.)...

I’m playing with a couple of routers and comparing proprietary to open source on the same hardware. I miss my .bashrc functions and aliases… and compgen, tree, manpages, detailed help, etc; the little things that get annoying when they are missing....

Hi, does anyone know how to make the tint2 taskbar follow the icon theme set in xfce? I’m on mx linux using the Zafiro-Nord-Black icon theme and set it to inherit from Zafiro-Icons-Dark, Numix-Circle, and Papirus-Dark....

According to this Phoronix article, Linux should support the birth time attribute in the NFS server since 5.18. However, it doesn’t show up in the stat output when looking at the file through the NFS mount, or elsewhere (at least, the Dolphin file browser and also a macOS client):...

Hey there fellas!...

Hello Linux people, I need a bit of help. I wanted to leverage the new 545 NVIDIA drivers, but no other OS that I know of has them yet, so I installed Arch Linux using the handy archinstall script. I followed an external guide on how to get NVIDIA cards up and running. This one specifically:...

I’m unsure if this is a Linux specific issue but when I add or remove a hard drive steam will unlink family share which is a hassle to relink, I know it’s a niche question but does anyone know if reformatting a disk or partition will also cause an unlink? Thank you in advance.

I’ve come into a 2018 Intel Mac Mini, its got an i7 and I’ve upgraded it to 32gb of RAM. I feel pretty constrained on MacOS as I mostly just game. How function are eGPUs under Linux? I’m pretty comfortable on Linux, its what I use on desktop daily. But I’ve never tried anything with external graphics on it. Xorg seems...
