Hello all,...

Hi all, I have a 4k monitor and the steam app is very tiny. I have found out that I can fix it by running the app in the terminal with steam -forcedesktopscaling 2, but it is getting tiring launching it through the terminal. Is there any way I can change something in the app itself and make it launch with that command? KDE...

BunsenLabs was my favorite Linux distro back in the day. For years I’ve kept some of their old config files, &c… To use on my own version. But more and more they’ve become broken as things progress ever onward. I was just wondering if anyone knows what happened with them and if they may have moved on to other similar...

What explains this sudden growth and the sudden decline of Linux in Ukraine?

Recently installed Linux Mint on an old computer. I put my old RX 590 in it. I only upgrade from the 590 because on every boot on my windows machine I would need to go into adrenaline and underclock the GPU a bit to stop it from crashing when I tried to play games. Adrenaline isn’t a thing on Linux so I have no idea how to go...

When showing Nix or NixOS to newcomers, the first instinct is often to run the NixOS Docker image on Docker or Podman. This week we’re having a look at how to do the same with systemd’s systemd-nspawn facility via the machinectl command. This has huge benefits to both trying out NixOS and also professionally using it like a...

The cursor randomly enlarges every now and then. Anyone else experiencing the same problem? If so, have you solved it?...

Hello everyone;...

Edit: solved. Sorry guys, it was something silly. Instead of clicking shutdown on windows I just hard pressed the off button for some seconds on the laptop. So I booted back on windows and let it shutdown normally and then Debian was able to boot again. Hehe...

I have 2 different resolution monitors (2560x1440 and 1920x1080) and I dislike that my mouse gets stuck at the transition where the smaller display is not aligned with the bigger one. I use cursr to fix that but I can’t find an alternative that works on wayland and that’s pretty well the only thing stopping me from making...

Example: Fedora Rawhide, Ubuntu Latest, Debian Stable

Hi all . I currently have version 2023.06.25 installed, stable. Tell me how to install the latest version 20240612?
