If you’re over on mastodon it would help if you could submit an answer to my poll over which Linux distro I will hopefully settle on...

I’m running the latest plasma with X11 (Arch). Fractional scaling is working fine with all the qt based apps but I’m experiencing size issues with gtk apps (Lutris or VMware for ex.). Fonts are rendered ok but scaling is not correctly applied to window and icons (titlebar is too small). Is there some kind of workaround?...

Tldr: Are there fan drivers I should look into for my Gigabyte Aorus XC laptop (Intel i7; RTX 3070; 32GB RAM), so my fans do not get stuck at 100% when running Linux? I installed Mint 2 yrs ago when this happened. Im aware I cant tell for sure without doing another live boot, but I’d like to prepared just in case....

Problems are related to where distrobox is stashing a clblas and openblas package. It’s on the base system too, further complicating searches. I’ve tried all kinds of stuff with no luck. I hate the massive find command’s obfuscated ancient API of a full sized ANSI language specification. Python or C is easier than that...

Edit: I solved this using the command gsettings reset org.gnome.Settings last-panel...

Occasionally my laptop will just loose all wifi connectivity. Running dmesg at those moments provides this output: [ 1588.714014] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Error sending REMOVE_STA: enqueue_hcmd failed: -5 [ 1588.714017] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Failed to remove station.

both Linux operating systems have 1. A friendly user interface, 2. A hidden terminal, and 3. A locked down root user, to avoid dangerous actions!! Why do people seem to dislike Android when Ubuntu is similar to it??

With lots of things being developed through web technologies, and many things being web-based so that it is cross-platform, will operating systems still be relevant?...

Yeah another post about backups, but hear me out....

i’m planning a road trip and wanted to plan it out using a Gantt chart. I searched the repositories and did not find anything. Does anyone have any recommendations? (I actually am fun at parties)

My Objective:...

I would like to make manual backups of an SD card as a disk image so that it can be easily recreated when needed. I’d like to keep a few versions in case there is a problem I didn’t know about, it can be rolled back....

Hello,...

How to update BIOS on a system that only use Linux as OS....

I’m trying to get a job in IT that will (hopefully) pay more than a usual 9 to 5. I’m been daily driving Linux exclusively for about 2 1/2 years now and I’m trying to improve my skills to the point that I could be considered a so-called “power user.” My question is this: will this increase my hiring chances...

So NVIDIA just doesn’t cut it on Linux/proton I’ve come to learn. Looking at the best bang//buck, it this the AMD card people are flocking to? 7800 XT maybe?

For me, I really want to get into niri, but the lack of XWayland support scares me (I know there’s solutions, but I don’t understand them yet)....

Hello so today fedora/linux cannot find any audio devices and it randomly started happening...
