It’s mostly libinput. Why the hell can’t I easily change scroll speed on Gnome and not on KDE? Why does gnome have a simple tool (gnome tweaks) to change the trackpad cooldown to change the time trackpad doesn’t work as a substitute for good palm rejection and KDE doesn’t? Why is it a bit of a pain in both to change...

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...

Recently I am considering more and more moving my primary pc to a Linux distro.

I’m doing a bunch of AI stuff that needs compiling to try various unrelated apps. I’m making a mess of config files and extras. I’ve been using distrobox and conda. How could I do this better? Chroot? Different user logins for extra home directories? Groups? Most of the packages need access to CUDA and localhost. I would...

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...

About a week ago I setup Ubuntu as my primary OS on an old machine. It is my first time trying a unix based OS (previously windows). It has been ok, but it seems like every time I try to install something I run into problems. The app has the wrong permissions or I don’t have the right packages or I need to change port settings...

Here’s what I did: I bought a new 512 GB SSD to replace my old 256 GB SSD, which was getting full.

Then I used gparted to expand the LUKS partition to cover the...
