MangoKangaroo, (edited ) in What's your experience with bluetooth audio?

It’s okay. On my desktop with an Intel card my headphones occasionally have an issue where they’ll stop actually playing sounds until I swap the codec in GNOME Settings. I’m pretty sure it’s an issue with the headphones proper, because I don’t think I’ve had the issue with my earbuds or when using them on my laptop.

Speaking of my laptop, if I have WiFi turned on, the Bluetooth goes to shit. It sounds fine, but the audio will randomly cut out. I blame Realtek.

_cnt0, in Made the switch to KDE

Welcome to the KDE gang.

kittenroar, (edited ) in What's the best way to remote into a linux machine?

nomachine works well in my experience; it’s pretty straightforward to set up. And it offers nice performance. It’s free (as in beer), but it is proprietary software – they make their $$ selling enterprise features on their website.

I have an X1 gen 9 and sleep-on-close worked just fine with Fedora for the time I used that distro (although it was KDE, not GNOME). Every other distro I tried worked as expected in that respect.

KISSmyOS, in What's your experience with bluetooth audio?

On Debian Unstable and Arch (both with pipewire) it just worked out of the box for me with no issues.

PlexSheep, in Is the Windows Subsystem for Linux worth it?

Best thing available on windows, still suffers from running on windows, but inside is a pretty usable Linux distro

imgel, in Made the switch to KDE

Both DE have different targets. Gnome takes a bit more time for development. They are both great projects.

_cnt0,

You’re not entirely incorrect. But, KDE is better.

TheGrandNagus, (edited )

In your opinion.

I’d take Gnome anyday.

sfera,

That sums it up quite nicely. Thanks

palordrolap, (edited ) in KDE Plasma - Is it possible to show the user running a GUI in its window title ?

To distinguish two Firefox profiles that I run simultaneously, I use different themes on each. For Firefox this might actually be the best way.

For a file manager (I assume the Dolphin you're talking about is the file manager), the closest I remember seeing is a red toolbar on the unrelated Nemo file manager when it's run as root.

If Dolphin is per-user theme-able, then you could do what I do with Firefox. If it supports other kinds of plug-in, then maybe there's one that does what you want already.

To my knowledge, windowing systems can't override the title of an application's window, and even if they could, the application could change it back again at any time, creating a race condition, or a very ugly situation where the system picks and chooses which windows are allowed to modify their titles and which ones aren't.

Therefore, I think you'd have to write your own plug-in (if they're a thing and the API permits title modifications), modify Dolphin's source code yourself or submit a feature request to Dolphin's developers, cross your fingers and wait.

Try another Kernel.

imgel, in Is the Windows Subsystem for Linux worth it?

Just use Linux. Its manageable to do it through windows but youre only using like 10% of Linux Power.

I prefer to keep windows as a VM only on wintel hardware, with Linux on the bare metal. The less Microsoft can see the better.

hardcoreufo, in What's your experience with bluetooth audio?

I don’t recall ever having spent a lot of time messing with Bluetooth so I think it’s worked just fine for me for a while. I’ve used Debian, Fedora and Solus on a few different laptops and desktops. I’ll give a few headphones and speakers a go tonight and see what happens.

palordrolap, in Can't import OVA file or unpack it with tar

"UNEXPECTED_EOS" is almost certainly "unexpected end of stream", that is, the file is missing the end or there's data corruption and the unpacker has interpreted the bad data as meaning the file should be longer than it is.

Redownload the file, or try to download it using a different tool (e.g. wget or curl rather than a browser). If that still gets a truncated file, try a different source / mirror.

PrivateNoob,

Yeah you’re right. I’ve download git-lfs and it probably works now. Thank you for your help!

iamonabike, in Other dual panel file managers similar to Krusader?

You can have dual panels in Dolphin…

HouseWolf,

I’ve been made aware, Guess I’m still to Windows brained I still automatically assume I need a completely new program to get features I wanted >.>

jlow,

It does get a bit of getting used to (esp having only one sidebar) but I’m quite happy with Dolphin in dual panel mode.
