Strit, to linux in KDE Plasma 5.27.10, Bugfix Release for December
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

Did not happen to me when I updated on Arch. So might be a Neon quirk.

Strit, to linux in Surface Go 2 with 4GB Ram and 4425Y worth it?
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

No worries. Just wanted to throw some alternatives your way, since I think €300 is a steep price for a 4 GB RAM tablet with no upgrade option. :) PS: Didn’t know stylus support was a thing. TIL about EMR.

Not x86_64 based, but the PineTab2 and PineTab-V are 2 alternatives. The PineTab2 is aarch64 (ARM) based while the PineTab-V is, you guessed it, RISC-V based.

Both 8 GB RAM versions go for about $210 on their website.

Strit, to linux in What is the state of Multiseat in Linux today?
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

While Linux TTY is multiseat by default, each TTY is a seperate user login, I’m not sure any of the GUI’s support this function.

@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

I know of PRIME, which can be used to offload work to dedicated GPU’s.

Strit, to linux in Just read Madaidans Insecurities. Do you know how much is still relevant?
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

It uses the github cert, but that is not set to use the github.io subpages that start with www.

Strit, to linux in Any experience with teaching kids Linux?

Or the return of The Cube.

Strit, to linux in Spending a few days with Hyprland made me realize how awesome Gnome is
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

The difference, as I understand it, is that Hyprland is not a DE, it’s a Windows Manager. So it should be compared with the likes of Sway, i3 and Awesome.

Strit, to linux in [Fedora] Kinoite Nightly images with Plasma 6
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

Nice. I’ve been running Plasma 6 on my Arch test laptop. Not a huge visual difference, but it works fairly well.

Strit, to linux in Debian based immutable OSes
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

Not debian based, but is KDE - Fedora Kionite

Strit, to linux in Shadow Cast v0.6.1: GPU Accelerated Screen Recorder - Now with Wayland Support
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

OBS already does screen recording on Wayland…

Strit, to linux in ISC DHCP Client and Relay End of Maintenance
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

The Arch wiki article already states it’s unmaintained since January 2023. So Arch users have had almost a year to find another solution at this point.

Strit, to linux in Mozilla Firefox 120 Is Now Available for Download, Here's What's New

I agree. I’d love a quick TL:DR or rundown.

Strit, to linux in A response to the "Boycott Wayland" article
@Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show avatar

Screenlocking works just fine. That was not the issue mentioned.

The problem, as I see it, is that the author of the original Gist does not really want wayland replacements for what he has, but rather what he has to also work on wayland.

Wayland didn’t break everything. It broke what relied on X11 specific stuff, which turned out to be a lot of things. The vast majority of issues still present with Wayland are edge-cases that will only see the light of day when the people with those edge-cases start using wayland. And as long as distros default to X11, that won’t happen. So that distros, like Fedora, started defaulting to Wayland “early” on (yes I put early in quotes, because it’s only perceived as early) is actually a good thing. Makes the compositor developers aware of edge-cases they can’t catch themselves.

I’vge been using Wayland exclusively for over a year and apart from a couple of small bugs, not even missing functions, I haven’t experienced any issues relating to Wayland directly. But that’s for my use case. YMMV as always.
