kde debian user. I tend to go between testing and unstable branches for my laptop when i want newer packages and its been fine for a while. I run stable for all my containers and vms and everything has been great!

egerlach , in Longtime Arch user, first time Debian enjoyer

This is interesting because I’ve been thinking about switching from Debian to Arch. I’m already running Nix inside of my Debian installation to get more recent apps (I don’t like how snap interacts with the rest of the system, so I avoid it if I can).

Is there anything else on a more base OS level (like apt v pacman) that you’ve noticed is different, if you’re willing to share?

Welp, I’ve only been at it a few days, plus I’m kind of treating this system as plug and play. Meaning, on my desktop I’m happy to get my fingers into all types of config files and such, while on this laptop I intend to leave as many things default as possible. Bottom line is I haven’t looked too deep under the hood, so I can’t give too much insight on how the inner workings compare. I fully recommend giving Arch a try though. Just take things slowly and read the ArchWiki carefully.

    Yeah something like the Grandstream HT813 seems like what OP wants. It’s like 65 USD, and has both and FXO and an FXS. It’ll be a whole lot less trouble, and more reliable, than a patchy solution.

    TCB13 OP ,
    @TCB13@lemmy.world avatar

    I found this one but it seems to do the opposite of what I need.

    wildbus8979 ,

    Look at the HT318

    TCB13 OP ,
    @TCB13@lemmy.world avatar

    Thanks for the tip, that model clearly says it supports it… then there’s www.grandstream.com/products/…/ht813 that should work but the wording on the website isn’t that clear.

    Even if overkill I guess I’ll go with the HT318. Thanks.

    wildbus8979 ,

    I wouldn’t call it overkill honestly, it’s just the right tool for the job :) I have some of their gear and I’m happy enough with it.

    TCB13 OP ,
    @TCB13@lemmy.world avatar

    Well I don’t need 8 ports :P

    wildbus8979 ,

    Oh yeah you’re totally right, my bad! 😅

    Yurnero91 OP , in OpenSuse Tumbleweed: Update to KDE6 - Throws you back to login screen mid update/upgrade

    I followed Ashged’s guide to install the update and upgrade to KDE6. It worked and now let’s see if I run into any bugs. So far everything seems to work fine.

    mariusafa , in Longtime Arch user, first time Debian enjoyer

    You can use backports too!

    mholiv , in OpenSuse Tumbleweed: Update to KDE6 - Throws you back to login screen mid update/upgrade

    Same thing happened to me. I ended up finishing up the upgrade in Sway. Not a great user experience, but it wasn’t a huge deal for me.

    @Peter1986C@lemmings.world avatar

    I was tossed back to the login screen, but was fine otherwise. I am on Wayland by the way, maybe this issue is an X11 exclusive one.

    bloor , in Pipewire freezes after initial login or screen blank

    Do Pipewire and Wireplumber log something useful to the syslog?

    NorthWestWind OP ,
    @NorthWestWind@lemmy.world avatar

    Checked jounralctl for both. There doesn’t seem to be anything near the time of screen blank and wake up.

    lemmyreader , in Scanner: Microtek ScanMaker 3880, Chipset SQ113

    Not open source but why not give it a try with your scanner ? flathub.org/apps/com.hamrick.VueScan

    0x4E4F OP ,

    Read on the Mint forums a thread a while back, like from 2012 I think… someone had the same scanner as me and wrote to Hamrick about it, see if it’s supported. Unfortunatelly, no, it’s not… though this was a while back and maybe it’s supported now, who knows, will have to try I guess to know for sure.

    In any case, VueScan has some generic drivers in it, but it’s far from that it supports every device out there. In general, it needs drivers for it to work, no different than any other scanning application.

    nayminlwin , in Anyone here using JWM (Joe's Window Manager) with Arch in 2024?

    I’ve used it before as a backup X WM alternative to my main sway.

    I switched over to xfce after a whiel thougj.

    MajinBlayze , in Opensuse kde plasma 6 upgrade

    That’s the fun part of kalpa. Get to upgrade confidently. Though it does take a quick reboot to actually apply

    Lime66 OP , in Trouble with fedora

    Update: so I’m updating on a kernel 6.5.6 backup which still works, and I see this when I run dnf upgrade https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/abbcb63c-a990-4b39-91c9-eb6c102afccc.jpeg

    Lime66 OP ,

    So I take it I probably shouldn’t update

    Lime66 OP ,

    Never mind I can see it’s installing the newer kernel

    potentiallynotfelix OP , in Wine error when running Magellan VantagePoint
    @potentiallynotfelix@iusearchlinux.fyi avatar

    PARTIAL SOLUTIONI read on the WineHQ page that you need directx 2.0 installed, I had the newest directx. This allows the software to start, but theres still some error. I’ll troubleshoot and post again if I can’t find anything.
