I use Gnome because it seemed the most Windows like on the Linux Mint website.

0ddysseus ,

Not trying to start an argument, just curious on your perspective. What makes gnome seem like windows? I really can’t see it myself. For me KDE Neon feels pretty much the same as windows 10 but with more control and customization. Gnome feels kinda more like Android - everything hidden and big ol icons and doesn’t use the whole nested window configuration system

It just seemed to me like the most familiar looking at the preview screenshots on the download page. This and the fact that cinnamon is the most supported by Mint out of the 3.

i3wm for me, no DE. I do like KDE when I run a DE though.

I’m using WMs for 10 years now. Started with Openbox, currently running Bspwm for quite some time. Eyeing on River but not switching to Wayland yet thanks to Nvidia.

@sambeastie Hyprland, but technically it's a tiling window manager and Wayland compositor.

sambeastie OP ,

Been hearing a lot about Hyprland, will probably check it out even if I don’t end up using it on this build.

I switched to just using a window manager two years ago, and I haven’t looked back since. Currently using qtile (WM written and configured in python) and it was pretty straight forward to install/configure. This is the video that made me want to try it out.

KDE because I want a setup that just works.

No desktop environment. suckless dwm. xmonad breaks all the time, i3wm is a nightmare with its config and status bar that sucks. dwm has problems, it’s not the easiest to customise and stuff.

It’s fast though, dmenu is the best launcher objectively, the status bar is something you literally just pass a string to via a script in xprofile.

multi_flexi , in dualshock 4 on Arch

It works with Steam out of the box, without installing anything.

KDE currently. Modern GNOME drives me somewhat insane - too “streamlined”. I used WindowMaker for a long time and somewhat miss it, but I’ve had problems with compatibility with some software (Steam).

Gnome with Hot Edge

Pixlbabble OP , in Please help with distro decision

Whhhhhhy!!! I finally installed Nobara, why did everything go fine had wifi. After updating and restart, wifi doesn’t work. I tried looking around can’t find anything. I have a usb netgear wifi adapter. It’s so annoying because it works before updating. I tried 3x, I’m still new to linux.

string_cat ,

Sorry that’s been a pain! Does it connect to your router but can’t access websites or completely can’t connect?

Pixlbabble OP ,

Connections has a red X over it. Works in live, but not after install. Popos worked np.

Narann , in OpenMW 0.48.0 Released! [official release announcement]

This game is so impregnated in my mind that I hear the music just as watching a screenshot. It’s crazy.

Kudo to the team to keep this wonderful game up for the next decades.

EviTRea OP ,

Added "Option “metamodes” “1920x1080 +0+0"” to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and dnf installed xrandr, nothing changes.

just_another_person ,

Are you sure you’re using X11 and not Wayland? Looks like the default for Fedora 37 would be Wayland. It may be worth switching over to X11 to see if that solves your issue.

EviTRea OP ,

I’m 100% sure I’m on X11. CSGO has small but noticeable latency on Wayland on Nvidia so I switched as soon as the install happened. I did try switching back to Wayland yesterday, and it’s plane black screen with the cursor flashing, not even a functioning desktop, let along games. Something must had broke my Wayland some time ago.

just_another_person ,

Well the errors you’re seeing are pretty much telling you the “why” of what isn’t working, but not the “how”. Have you tried going back to an older version of the Nvidia driver? As it says, you could give Nouveau a shot.

EviTRea OP ,

Downgrading driver might work…but messing with Nvidia driver can go very wrong. I might as well just play it on Deck.

EviTRea OP ,

This action had my system failed to load Plasma today…good thing I know the Ctrl+Alt+F2 trick

FinancedPizza , in Team Fortress 2 crashing

Yeah it doesn’t run the best in general for me and I have had some crashes but not many.

scutiger , in Dark Souls 3 stuck on "Launching"

Try manually selecting the latest version of Proton in the game’s compatibility settings, currently 8.0-3. That fixed the issue for me.

EviTRea OP ,

Tried every version down to 6.3-8, no version changes anything.
