I am using Manjaro GNOME. I wanted to use automatic1111, but it wasn’t recognising my graphics card (NVIDIA 1660 ti) and wasn’t proceeding to the next stage of installation (the terminal kept crashing when it got to a certain point), so Bing said that switching from wayland to x11 might fix it. I changed the...
Sorry, noob here. I have been using Linux for a decade at least, but some basic stuff still stump me. Today, it’s file sharing: The idea is that the server is good at CPU and the NAS is good at storage. My NAS does run Docker but the services are slow; and my server runs a bunch of Docker containers just fine but has limited...
I upgraded from Debian Bookworm (Stable), which has kernel 6.1, to Debian Trixie (Testing), which has kernel 6.4. Until then, I couldn’t overclock my GPU’s VRAM beyond 1750 MHz. With kernel 6.4, I can overclock it as far as AMD will allow - 1860 MHz. If my 5600 XT hadn’t been locked down by AMD, I’d be able to go further...
I’ve been recently getting into NixOS, and I really like the concept of the store, reproducible builds, and declarative configuration. It keeps things organized and clean. But there are certain aspects of its implementation that are kind of rough:...
I’ve noticed that when 6.6.1 came out and it came time to reboot after it installed, I couldn’t boot into the OS anymore, it simply hangs on a black screen for about 10-15 minutes then reboots after selecting it. I’m currently on the LTS kernel which is 6.1.67-1-lts (64-bit) with no issues. I figured after updating to the...
For context: I have an AMD GPU, so drivers will not be a problem. I’ll prefer whichever one has more up-to-date and frequently updated packages. Wayland is a must.
My work laptop was forced to Winows 11 today, and as much as I dislike using windows, I do like the relaxing notification sounds. Much more than the default sound alerts I have with Linux Mint on my desktop. Does anyone have any recommendations for similar alerts and where I can download them. I’ve done a basic search and...
I have an old laptop which didn’t exactly have top of the line specs when I bought it back in 2016. It does, however, run Ubuntu pretty competently (yes I know there are better distros, no I am not going to use them). It was cheap. As in it came with a Celeron in 2016 cheap, so it isn’t the speediest little guy....
I know not everyone likes using vim but I thought those who do could share a good reason to get into it. For me its the repetition of the last change with the push of the dot key. Replace the current word with another and move the cursor to the next word you wish to replace. It makes the editor so versatile and feels very...
I currently have a personal nas running ubuntu server, but I’m considering moving it to opensuse leap. I’ve dabbled a bit with leap inside of virtual machines, but maybe someone more experienced with it can give me a more complete opinion. Also, is btrfs worth getting into, or can I just use ext4 and loose out on nothing...
