Am on Arch and hibernation is currently broken with systemd 255 in my case. They introduced a lot of breaking changes for it. It works after enabling some workarounds for dracut 059 but it completely does a full power cycle. Your best bet is sticking with suspend until systemd unfucks hibernation.
Most phones have no mainline Linux support, and require something like ubports, which can use an unholy hack to run Linux userspace based on Android drivers and kernel. I think this one can be installed to just about any Android phone (worst case you can use the generic GSI image, which should work but be slow). Personally, I’ve never once bricked a phone by flashing it, and I’ve been doing it since ~2015 (don’t remember the year, but it was a Lenovo S660).
OnePlus 6 is a 5 year old phone with a SoC that has comparatively high development velocity (SDM845), which is why it’s finally getting close to full mainline support for basic features like calls/SMS/camera/sensors (still not fully there, and yes sensors are needed, they make stuff like autorotate and turning touchscreen off when you put your phone to your ear during a call work). If you want to tinker with Linux, I recommend a Pinephone; though Mobian did mention how frustrating its ecosystem is in their blog. Maybe Pinephone Pro or Librem are better, but they’re way way way more expensive. If you want a daily driver, I recommend a OnePlus 6/6T as explained in the article, or some other SDM845 phone, and maybe don’t DIY if you don’t have the basic experience in working with ARM SBCs and Android ROMs like me lol.
postmarketOS is probably the smoothest experience you’ll get on a wide range of devices, and I highly recommend it. Most other mobile Linux distros are often more or less piggy backing off their work (though of course other distros create cool stuff too).
In the tint2 docs do a ctrl-f for ‘icon’ — does any of that look like it could be of any use to you? I am not sure I understand the issue but maybe this:
launcher_icon_theme = name_of_theme : (Optional) Uses the specified icon theme to display shortcut icons. Note that tint2 will detect and use the icon theme of your desktop if you have an XSETTINGS manager running (which you probably do), unless launcher_icon_theme_override = 1.
launcher_icon_theme_override = boolean (0 or 1) : Whether launcher_icon_theme overrides the value obtained from the XSETTINGS manager. (since 0.12)
If not try searching for ‘icon’ in the rest of the repo, issues etc.
I'm assuming you've already found it, but just in case you didn't: Framework has setup guides for Fedora, which presumably should make everything work as intended. Find your device on this page, then click "Fedora 39 Setup Guide" on the right-hand side: https://frame.work/linux
check through the hotkeys of your current window manager – you won’t get the full dynamic features of a tiling window manager, but most of them have keys for snapping windows to top-half, bottom-half, left-half, right-half (as well as sometimes offering by quarter as well)
DistroTube argued that the killer feature of tiling window managers is the workspaces, not the tiling
non-tiling window managers can also have different workspaces, or even DEs such as KDE Plasma. IIRC even Windows has those (although with inconvenient keybindings imo)
I think they’re talking about the tandem of tiling and workspaces, as usually you can customize your tiling per-workspace. Some TWMs have tags instead of workspaces, making it even better.
Any additional details you can add would go a long way towards troubleshooting. That desktop are you using (ex: Gnome, KDE, etc) and what model of laptop, the full hardware specs including CPU, GPU, WiFi model, etc. Finally, you’ll want to look at the system logs to see if there’s anything useful in there after resuming from sleep (journalctl).
I must have just missed that originally, I was commenting before coffee.
I see you have the combination graphics (Optimus is what it was originally called IIRC) which has a history of sleep wake issues, that might be a good place to start on the monitor search.
I'm trying to get the logs, but it's difficoult to paste them all here, I got a few on this link. But they all seem from 20 October, wierd. https://sharetext.me/nqz5mfph2y
The lines are quite many, they started at 1pm, while now that I was testing it's 5pm, only to go down by one minute it took quite a long time (definetly more than 1 minute) I'm not sure how to check
Yeah, thanks for the help even if you don't know much. I get stuck on the first command where I get this error:
rmmod: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:799 kmod_module_remove_module() could not remove 'iwlmvm': Operation not permitted
rmmod: ERROR: could not remove module iwlmvm: Operation not permitted
rmmod: ERROR: Module iwlwifi is in use by: iwlmvm
modprobe: FATAL: Error running remove command for iwlwifi
I avoid Ubuntu because Canonical has a history of going their own way alone rather than collaborating on universal standards. For instance, when the X devs decided the successor to X11 needed to be a complete redesign from scratch companies like RedHat, Collabora, Intel, Google, Samsung, and more collaborated to build Wayland. However, Canonical announced Mir, and they went their own way alone.
When Gnome3 came out it was very controversial and this spawned alternatives such as Cinnamin, MATE, and Ubuntu's Unity desktop. Unity was the only Linux desktop, before or since, to include sponsored bloatware apps installed by default, and it also sold user search history to advertisers.
Then, there's snap. While Flatpak matured and becoame the defacto standard distro-agnostic package system, Canonical once again went their own way alone by creating snap.
I'm not an expert on Ubuntu or the Linux community, I've just been around long enough to see Canonical stir up controversy over and over by going left when everyone else goes right, failing after a few years, and wasting thousands of worker hours in the process.
One thing is to explore different ways to do things, like many projects do, but ubuntu goes further and FORCES people to use their experiments, as if they’re some sort of testing ground, not as if they’re the most used family of linux distros and the one a lot of people rely on.
Edit: Sorry if my tone was excessive, I think I’m getting grumpy with age.
I’m quite happy with Linux Mint Debian Edition. I think it is the future of Mint. It’s on a very recent kernel, and more and more software I use nowadays is in Flatpaks anyways. I don’t feel like I’m missing out on much new stuff, but maybe I’m just not aware.
How different is it from regular Debian? Like if I’m very experienced with Debian, does that equate to being able to easily use Mint Debian Edition too?
I found normal Debian to be a little unpolished for my liking. Even using the Cinnamon DE, it was lacking some niceties that Mint brings. I don’t think you’ll have any trouble using Mint.
