FL Studio works fine in Linux if u install it thru Wine

I'm working on recoloring and redrawing program icons to work better with the Catppuccin color scheme. Feedback and recommendations appreciated German

Icons that I have already done can be seen here. I posted about my progress on r/Windowsporn (because I started it when I wanted to “rice” my Windows partition) and want now expand to Linux programs. So please recommend me your favorite code editors, terminals and programs you want to see. Any feedback is really appreciated...

BSPWM user here: Desktops are 1-10 Super + Enter: Terminal on desktop 1 Super + F: Firefox on Desktop 2 Super + D: File manager on Desktop 3 (D for data) Super + Space: Rofi dmenu Super + Shift + Space: Rofi Run

Discord and Telegram (or any other messengers for that matter) are always Desktop 10 so they aren’t in the way of anything.

And any other desktop is whatever I need to use in that regard, sorted thematically amd depending on task

Why didn't anyone remind me the dual booting exists?

I was talking to my dad yesterday and he talked about how he dual booted windows and Linux in his college days. I immediately left to download Ubuntu, I feel so dumb for forgetting it’s an option. I literally only use windows so I can play Fortnite with friends. PSA: you can have both Linux and Windows, or you can use a vm in...

I use timeshift on my arch, debian and fedora systems. First backup mirrors your whole drive, every new backup kinda does it like docker, files which stayed the same are being symlinked to the og backup and for file changes it puts the newer file into the next backup, file deletions just don’t get links, so you have versioning. U can set how often backups will happen daily/weekly/monthly and how many are kept, doing backups manually is an option too. also you can set what folders to include, exclude and all that good stuff.

Enabled: SVM mode (CPU virtualization) TPM 2.0 Secure Boot

Disabled: Windows 10 WHQL support Legacy Boot

Anything else is pretty much default

I’ve tried on zen and lts, I don’t have the stock kernel

Windows does support VirtIO if you load the drivers at setup. QXL doesn’t help either, also tried VGA, same problem.

I’ve tried all the CPU settings in virt-manager, my HOST runs Windows 10 just fine, still crashes if I use Host or nearest ro host in virt-manager

DaveedMee OP ,
@DaveedMee@beehaw.org avatar

that’s the thing, I BSOD right before the setup

DaveedMee OP ,
@DaveedMee@beehaw.org avatar

yeah maybe

DaveedMee OP ,
@DaveedMee@beehaw.org avatar

yeah I changed the settings there but it didn’t change anything

@DaveedMee@beehaw.org avatar

every other linux distro I tried (Fedora, Manjaro, Linux Mint) worked fine in live usb, didn’t install any of them though

DaveedMee OP ,
@DaveedMee@beehaw.org avatar

Yeah I did, used genuine Windows 10 and 11 images before I tried modded ones

SOLVED - Any desktop environments with tv overscan settings?

Heya, I’m currently using my old tv as a monitor and the problem is that it seems to have overscan and I can’t go into the tv menu to change it. Do you know of any desktop environments that allow you to resize the window height and width? I’ve tried KDE with kdoctor and xrandr settings but all it did to me was changing hiw...

I hope to be able to do that with xorg bc my graphics card probably has problems with Wayland

DaveedMee OP ,
@DaveedMee@beehaw.org avatar

It positioned the screen to the bottom right edge of my tv but the left and top was still cut off. I wanted to see what kind of transformations u applied and checked the xrandr wiki, and found my solution in the end:

xrandr --output HDMI-2 --set underscan on --set “underscan vborder” 25 --set “underscan hborder” 40

But thanks for your help anyways!
