[lyric pollen]

Wait you have a gpu?

[pallid marsh]

my old pc has a gpu

its old so bad gpu

and nouveau on top of that

[lyric pollen]

Btw how do I install sddm themes from link?

[pallid marsh]

just use plasma for it

[lyric pollen]

How?

[pallid marsh]

i dont wanna bother with sddm's crazy shit

[pallid marsh]

you got plasma installed?

prob na

[lyric pollen]

How do i check?

[pallid marsh]

pacman -Q plasma-meta

[pallid marsh]

also you installed your arch 2 days ago dude

how do you not know

[lyric pollen]

It has plasma

[pallid marsh]

then hop off hyprland

and switch to plasma

then goto system settings

appearance

and sddm themes or soemthing like that

[lyric pollen]

But I wanna stay in hyprland

[pallid marsh]

get new themes option in top right can get new themes quicker

[woven crag]

GM

[pallid marsh]

sddm isnt dependent on any compositor

you change the theme

[lyric pollen]

I know.

[pallid marsh]

quit plasma

enjoy life

[lyric pollen]

Ummmm.....

My pc just crashed

On the login screen

[pallid marsh]

skill issue

[pallid marsh]

good

what theme did you use?

[lyric pollen]

Maya or something
With custom wallpaper from a locked hard disk

Or unlocked but whatever

[pallid marsh]

locked hard disk

sounds even better

[lyric pollen]

Aka the toshiba

[pallid marsh]

okay so now what

screenshot

[pallid marsh]

ctrl+alt+f3

login with yo name and pass

[lyric pollen]

Aight

Entered the user

[lyric pollen]

Now what?

[pallid marsh]

dont be like this guy

[pallid marsh]

try running sddm again

sudo systemctl start sddm

if it doesnt then

ctrl+alt+f3

and cancel the process

[lyric pollen]

It runs the command

But does nothing

[pallid marsh]

hmm try rebooting

[lyric pollen]

Okay

Maybe I shouldn't have copied plasma configs into sddm

It still crashed

Should I enter plasma somehow?

[pallid marsh]

what

[pallid marsh]

yeah do

[lyric pollen]

In the settings

[pallid marsh]

dbus-run-session startplasma-wayland

something like this

[pallid marsh]

idk what you actually did

i prefer you set breeze sddm theme for now

its simple and always works without any issues

[lyric pollen]

Okay

Wait

It isn't rebooting

It's stuck for some reason

[pallid marsh]

what

whats stuck?

[lyric pollen]

Well it took it's time

Aight

Now it's fixed

[pallid marsh]

oh i forgot plasma is slow enough

[pallid marsh]

what

ok

[lyric pollen]

So....should I configure hyprland for the de experience?

[pallid marsh]

what

[lyric pollen]

to make it work like a de than bare bones hyprland?

[pallid marsh]

with peoples dotfiles?

[lyric pollen]

Nah

This time
I'll customize it myself

[pallid marsh]

well you think its a one day stuff?

[lyric pollen]

No....

Well at least I can start, right?

[pallid marsh]

well you started since you ran hyprland

[lyric pollen]

So, what's the next step?

(KDE-plasma is very confusing)

[pallid marsh]

did you setup your bar?

[pallid marsh]

skill issue

plasma is really easy

[pallid marsh]

you havent read hyprland wiki yet

[pallid marsh]

install nerd-fonts

[lyric pollen]

I am spoiled by gnome.

[lyric pollen]

Jet brains?

[pallid marsh]

idk jet brains or fat brains

just do one that you use

or like

or prefer

[pallid marsh]

gnome isnt even easy

mfs make you rely on outside world

[lyric pollen]

Aight
Downloaded the nerd fonts

What now?

[pallid marsh]

i mean

you can use the aur

whats the name?

[lyric pollen]

of what?

[pallid marsh]

your nerd fonts

[lyric pollen]

Liberation Mono

[pallid marsh]

you can search with yay like this

yay -Ss liberation

or search and download at the same time

yay liberation

you should see fonts

download the nerd font

[lyric pollen]

Done

[pallid marsh]

btw getting a de like experience on hyprland is too hard

instead try getting an experience thats good for you

[lyric pollen]

Didn't you manage to do it though?

[pallid marsh]

because a de has gui for everything

you need to learn gtk

[lyric pollen]

I don't really prefer gnome or kde

I want to use cosmic tho

[pallid marsh]

nah i have skill issues and still doing my config

[lyric pollen]

Well, can I use hyprland on top of cosmic?

[pallid marsh]

no

hyprland is a compositor

cosmic uses its own compositor

and why do you wanna

cosmic is a de

hyprland isnt

cosmic has tiling too

[lyric pollen]

okay

[pallid marsh]

auto tiling

[lyric pollen]

cosmic it is then

[pallid marsh]

see you in alpha software then

[lyric pollen]

As I already have kde to fall back to

[pallid marsh]

bro really thought cosmic is developed

[lyric pollen]

Btw, does cosmic support rofi and the other good stuff?

[pallid marsh]

no you can run on top of it you are on drugs

cosmic is a de

not a barebones compositor

you are essentially doing the same thing yourself for no reason

it has start menu

it has taskbar

it has settings gui

[lyric pollen]

Ohhhhhh
Okay
I'll have to work on hyprland later
For now, I'll try out cosmic

[pallid marsh]

i will install cosmic and try it out

[pallid marsh]

btw its alpha software

[lyric pollen]

Means stuff is already breaking, right?

Well, everything else also breaks, so......

Yeah, I'll dive in anyway.

[pallid marsh]

means it is not for normal use

its for testing

[lyric pollen]

Still, I'll check it out.

And break my pc again.

Thanks for the help again.
Though I did manage to annoy you all to the core.

And for that, I'm sorry.

[pallid marsh]

i doubt you can

you have skill issues even at breaking your pc

[lyric pollen]

https://tenor.com/view/steven-he-emotional-damage-steven-he-emotional-damage-gif-23428142

[pallid marsh]

f it

i am in cosmic

the taskbar is disgusting

the worst one in history

i like the runner

[lyric pollen]

And you can't customize it, right?

[pallid marsh]

similar to rofi

[pallid marsh]

idk

i havent went into settings

its cosmic-comp wm time

L cant even use grim

the cosmic screenshot tool is weird

but yeah this taskbar is killing me

i like the file manager

[lyric pollen]

yeah
Cosmic feels weird

[pallid marsh]

the taskbar is the worst thing about it

and its not even because of alpha software

[lyric pollen]

You can customize it.

[pallid marsh]

the settings app is barebones shit

[lyric pollen]

Bro, why is it lagging?

[pallid marsh]

its kinda laggy

the settings app especially

obs screen capture works out of the box

not sure if its because it works on hyprland

[lyric pollen]

Obs works on hyprland.

Anyway, it's not bad.

But I'll continue to customize hyprland in the background.

[pallid marsh]

recording seems stable asf

idk if even hyprland is as good

cosmic files is a nice file manager

even dolphin looks sleek here

i think the fonts are better set

[lyric pollen]

How do you take ss?

[pallid marsh]

cosmic screenshot

[lyric pollen]

How does it work?

[pallid marsh]

it works

because it works

i ran pvz under wine

but the game isnt displaying

only sound is working

[lyric pollen]

pvz?

in linux?

[pallid marsh]

plants vs zombies

[pallid marsh]

yes duh

this is 2024

[lyric pollen]

Well Darkest Dungeon is working.

Aight.
I'll fix stuff tomorrow.

[pallid marsh]

pvz works under heroic

but now it disappeared bruh

btw have you tried tiling mode yet?

[lyric pollen]

Not yet.

It feels weird.

[pallid marsh]

hmm its not working for me

ok i hope it works now

okay it works but the disgusting taskbar

there are prebuilt shortcuts

which is nice

the system tray is also bad

i prefer the gnome style navigation bar where everything is at one place

but gnome is bad

no systray

ngl this is my backup de now

if i switch to a de in future

cosmic is nice

[lyric pollen]

It is.

[pallid marsh]

overall -10/10 for the taskbar

[lyric pollen]

But, I still prefer hyprland.
So, I'll continue to work on that thing too.

[pallid marsh]

otherwise good

[pallid marsh]

i mean atleast it doesnt have a taskbae

[lyric pollen]

It has a dock

[pallid marsh]

imagine big taskbar taking up all the screen and even looking ugly

[pallid marsh]

to be honest docks are worst

[lyric pollen]

Ikr

[pallid marsh]

panels are usable if they arent small

docks should always stay hidden

until you hover

[lyric pollen]

It does give you the option to do that.

[pallid marsh]

maybe it does

but yeah default should be small panel

mate taught me the beauty of small panel

mate is actually a great de

its cinnamon without bloat

[fallen raptor]

How to use Github guys

[pallid marsh]

git gud

[lyric pollen]

Yeah
One last thing,
How do you make Hyprland have a wallpaper?

[pallid marsh]

for simplicity

use hyprpaper with waypaper

if you want to be a moronic bastard use hyprpaper without waypaper

[fallen raptor]

yeah that

[pallid marsh]

git or github?

[fallen raptor]

Github

[pallid marsh]

man you suck at googling

[fallen raptor]

Linus Torvalds

[pallid marsh]

i have never seen bigger skill issue

[fallen raptor]

I don't cheat

unless told to do so

[pallid marsh]

now everyone will see what you said

[fallen raptor]

ok

[pallid marsh]

git is a version control system

for example v 0.1 is alpha

v 1.0 is first release

v 1.2 is improved release

v 2.0 is rewrite

v 2.5 is latest release

[fallen raptor]

My codespace is using 1GB ram for nothing

[fallen raptor]

what are gits used for?

[pallid marsh]

to manage a repository

no version control system = chaos

[fallen raptor]

What is a repository?

what are they used for?

[pallid marsh]

hmm its like a hub

a hub where you have files

[fallen raptor]

how to use repositories?

[fallen raptor]

like programs?

so APT is a repository?

Yum

[pallid marsh]

well no

apt is a package manager

[fallen raptor]

and Choclatey 😈

[fallen raptor]

oh

[pallid marsh]

apt can host repos

[fallen raptor]

so a repository

ye

like distribute right?

[pallid marsh]

yeah apt is used to communicate with repository

download and upload shits

[fallen raptor]

and VIM is a package in a repository right?

[pallid marsh]

yeah

git allows you to maintain a repository by allowing everyone to colaborate

in a humane way

[fallen raptor]

so Repository is like a database full of programs and package managers like APT distribute them

gist

[pallid marsh]

not always programs

[fallen raptor]

got u

[pallid marsh]

actually anything tbh

[fallen raptor]

like

drivers?

[pallid marsh]

files

to build a sogtware

software*

[fallen raptor]

I see

so it can be used as a way to share files too

in the most nerdiest way

got u

[pallid marsh]

well kind of yeah

its a database

organized too

mostly

now each repo can be called differently

for example aur

arch user repository

where buildfiles of programs are contained which are uploaded and maintained by and for arch users

[fallen raptor]

I see

[pallid marsh]

btw when i mean git is vcs

git is basically there to update the repository

you can make a commit

to remove a line

some maintainer merges that commit into main branch

you can see the commit history

issues etc

but thats the case with everything

people who self host can pretty change anything

maybe delete commit history

[fallen raptor]

damn

[pallid marsh]

or maybe explode the universe

WHY AM I LAGGINGGG

RUNRUNRUNRUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[blazing vault]

i am gagging

[fallen raptor]

😭

[woven crag]

eniough brain damage with hyprland

formated whole nvme drive

[lyric pollen]

How?

[woven crag]

mkfs.xfs /dev/nvme0n1

[blazing vault]

f2fs is the best for anything but hdd

[lyric pollen]

Anyone know any fix for this?

[blazing vault]

sudo pacman -S xorg-xhost polkit

[lyric pollen]

Still not working.

Anyone?

So, it's only not working on hyprland.

For some reason.

[woven crag]

mount that

[lyric pollen]

Nvm, I got it fixed.

Thanks for the help guys.

[blazing vault]

because you installed

💀

[lyric pollen]

And had to write the exec once stuff.

[blazing vault]

on right exec polkit on boot

ig

[lyric pollen]

yeah,
that did the trick

[pallid marsh]

skill issue yall

[pallid marsh]

you are gonna suffer with that many partition

[lyric pollen]

I already fixed it.

The authentication.

[fallen raptor]

A random person on discord sent me his debit card number and everything, and it's legit 💀💀💀

[pallid marsh]

you will need to authenticate them when you wanna mount

[lyric pollen]

That's not a problem.

[pallid marsh]

damn tell the authorities

[pallid marsh]

well guess thats nice

[lyric pollen]

Wha.?

[fallen raptor]

Fr wha?

[pallid marsh]

until programs start freaking out because the directory doesnt exist

then you need to go mount them

then restart the program

[lyric pollen]

I'll figure it out.

Somehow.

[fallen raptor]

Lol I tried to sign up for Oracle cloud with it and it got declined 😭

[pallid marsh]

you can automount them

[fallen raptor]

C'mon I wasn't gonna use the paid tier anyways

Just lemme go past that stupid verification thingy

[pallid marsh]

at the cost of your sanity because you will need to do it 9 times

[lyric pollen]

Yeah, I'll try to do that.

Anyway, I forgot to backup my picture folder.

[pallid marsh]

wipe it

[lyric pollen]

Now my notes and wallpapers are gone.

[pallid marsh]

dd it and destroy

[lyric pollen]

It was in base Fedora

Where fedora was located.

Currently stuck at sddm and waybar customization.

[pallid marsh]

well i was telling you to wipe all yohr progress

[pallid marsh]

skill issue

why would you be stuck at sddm?

[lyric pollen]

Two themes I installed failed to log me in.

[fallen raptor]

Read his name

[lyric pollen]

for some reason.

[pallid marsh]

just install breeze man

or use gdm

literally i got tired of sddm

you can gdm settings to change small things

[lyric pollen]

Currently running breeze.

[pallid marsh]

not big things

[pallid marsh]

then whats the problem

[lyric pollen]

The problem is,
I want to run custom themes, for some reason.

But the ones I want don't work.

Anyway, the real problem is waybar.
With which I'll deal later.

[pallid marsh]

copy someones dotfiles

maybe

[lyric pollen]

Nope.

Not yet.

[pallid marsh]

damn

is your bar gonna be at top or bottom?

[lyric pollen]

top.

[pallid marsh]

well thats easy

[lyric pollen]

Yeah,
The main problem is the modules.

[pallid marsh]

what problem

[lyric pollen]

Where even is the config file?
Nvm, I'll deal with it later.

[pallid marsh]

💀

~/.config/waybar/config

also style.css

[lyric pollen]

it's empty.

[pallid marsh]

then generate config

[lyric pollen]

cat?

[pallid marsh]

/usr/share/waybar/

copy files from there

to

~/.config/waybar

if its not there then its a waybar skill issue

[lyric pollen]

theres no usr/share/waybar directory.

[pallid marsh]

then it is somewhere else

man who is gonna search for waybar default config

maybe check

/etc/xdg/waybar

[lyric pollen]

Found it, copied stuff.

Still nothing.

[pallid marsh]

what is supposed to change?

you copy it

you edit it

[lyric pollen]

The bar, maybe?
The config file?

[lyric pollen]

Fine, I'll do it.....later.

[pallid marsh]

copu the config file to ~/.config/waybar

only edit ~/.config/waybar and not the /etc one

[lyric pollen]

there's no waybar in config.

for some reason.

[pallid marsh]

mkdir it

bascially alot of programs dont put config in that directory

because some people have configs there already

[lyric pollen]

still, no config in waybar.

[pallid marsh]

what

[pallid marsh]

no config in /etc/xdg/waybar ?

whatever

https://github.com/Alexays/Waybar/tree/master/resources

download the config here then

[lyric pollen]

There is.

[pallid marsh]

bruh

i think you are under drugs

[lyric pollen]

Done.

My pc is, maybe.

[vagrant crag]

GM

Just installed Ubuntu in my nintendo switch

[pallid marsh]

ll

[pallid marsh]

proprietary snap

also nintendoo switch is an L

[vagrant crag]

It is not how is it?

I play games for free, I jail breaked it ez

[pallid marsh]

everything about it is an L

bad hardware

[vagrant crag]

How

[pallid marsh]

also Nintendo is a shit company

[vagrant crag]

It's the best I could get in 2019????

[pallid marsh]

you should stop buying from them

[vagrant crag]

I know

[vagrant crag]

I don't buy games from them

I jail breaked it

Jailbreak=free games

[lyric pollen]

What's the best rar extractor out there?

[vagrant crag]

7zip?

[lyric pollen]

Wait, only unzip is rial.

[lyric pollen]

So...I set up waypaper.

But my wallpaper hasn't changed.

Fiiiiiiiiiiiiine
I'll install dot files.

[pallid marsh]

just use ark

[pallid marsh]

skill issue

[lyric pollen]

Yeah

I shouldnt have done that

[pallid marsh]

means even more skill issue

[blazing vault]

deleted wrong message by accident @pallid marsh ,,, thought that was critical bug, turns out i got the message late lol, fixed at oct 10

[blazing vault]

unrar

to extract partfiles in current directory

unrar x part1.rar

if you meant gui, file-roller, i mean it uses unrar unzip 7zip tar etc behind the schene

you gotta have that packages installed for file-roller to work with each kind of compression

[pallid marsh]

what

[blazing vault]

firefox

[pallid marsh]

what about it?

[blazing vault]

remote code execution

well fixed by oct 10, no point announcing it now

yall already did a update probably

[pallid marsh]

did i say anything about furryfox?

[blazing vault]

nah i deleted one of your text trying to delete mine

[pallid marsh]

seems like skill issue

[lyric pollen]

So, before the dot files
I couldn't log into the pc with custom sddm themes

Any idea why?

[pallid marsh]

wdym couldnt log

like sddm didnt run?

it crashed?

or that login never worked

[lyric pollen]

Gave it password
The correct one
Says login failed

So, I'll have to start again, ig

From the beginning or arch.

[pallid marsh]

skill issue

try using gdm

[lyric pollen]

I am thinking of doing a wipe.

Then starting again.

[pallid marsh]

L idea

you fix arch not reinstall it

its not windows

get productive instead

[lyric pollen]

Thanks m8.

[pallid marsh]

what does m8 mean?

or should i say

wt ds m8 mn

[dusty ibex]

very nice

[lyric pollen]

Joke.

[lyric pollen]

So, I managed to enter hyrpland.

But my sddm is messed up because of a custom theme not being removed.

[pallid marsh]

just use gdm

[lyric pollen]

How do I switch?

Also, my terminals broke.

And uh
I installed zed.

But it's not working either.

[lyric pollen]

Does anyone know anything about this problem?

(sddm user not known to underlying authentication)

[woven crag]

GM

[fallen raptor]

Gm

[pallid marsh]

skill issue

[pallid marsh]

even more skill issue

[pallid marsh]

skill issue ++

[pallid marsh]

zed needs vulkan + skill issue

[pallid marsh]

skill issue + $systemctl enable --force gdm.service

[blazing vault]

gdm - gay display manager

[pallid marsh]

atleast it looks clean by default

sddm is shit by default

[blazing vault]

yea

[pallid marsh]

you wanna customize it? too bad its complex ass or else you need plasma

where half the themes reqiire dependencies

[blazing vault]

lol

[pallid marsh]

i just dont get why there isnt sddm settings like gdm made by someone

[vagrant crag]

GM

[pallid marsh]

shutup

[pallid marsh]

damn i finally got a big problem today after adding cachy os repo

[fallen raptor]

3rd day

Trying to install KDE in GitHub codespaces

[pallid marsh]

i dont know how will you manage to spawn x window

[fallen raptor]

Me neither 😔

[pallid marsh]

i recommend you to make your own display serve rthat can display stuff in the tty

[fallen raptor]

This is what stupidGPT said

I think GPT's talking about the display server too

[pallid marsh]

ok so its a remote sessiom

[woven crag]

GM

[pallid marsh]

[cerulean vine]

Nico Nico ne

[lyric pollen]

Well,

[lyric pollen]

I actually have stuff from 3 different dot files right now.

[cerulean vine]

Scrn shot wen

[lyric pollen]

Only the applications survived.

[pallid marsh]

[lyric pollen]

Thanks.

It's at it's peak.

[lyric pollen]

And actually looks good.

[pallid marsh]

just remove sddm

[lyric pollen]

I fixed it.

[pallid marsh]

use cli to get into Hyprland

[lyric pollen]

It works perfectly.

[pallid marsh]

$Hyprland

[lyric pollen]

And I am in hyprland right now.

[pallid marsh]

literally

[lyric pollen]

I know that command too.

[pallid marsh]

i used to use agreety

or greetd i think

it was nice

well overtime i wanted plasma and gnome

[lyric pollen]

Mate, I can now login through SDDM.

[pallid marsh]

you dont even know what your issue is

using 3 random dotfiles together

[lyric pollen]

I allowed bad usernames in the config.

Because my user name had a capital l.

[lyric pollen]

"Experimentation."

[pallid marsh]

man i told you to put normal username

you managed to add bad name

[pallid marsh]

peak stable desktop linux experience

[lyric pollen]

Also equibop is great.

[pallid marsh]

tff

you dirty ass mf

all dignity lost

[lyric pollen]

Because?

[pallid marsh]

[lyric pollen]

It felt the best.
So...............

[pallid marsh]

[lyric pollen]

Why?
Also what happened to your pc?

[pallid marsh]

wdym

[lyric pollen]

You said you had an issue?

[pallid marsh]

its there

yeah

cachy os repo

L

[lyric pollen]

Why do you have cachy os repo?

[pallid marsh]

catfish

linux-cachyos kernel

[lyric pollen]

WHY?

[pallid marsh]

mf kernel 6.10.8 - 6.10.10 arch

kernel arch broke everything in life in those versions

my realtek wifi and ethernet and bluetooth

mf touchpad

therefore making me a sane person

Why not go to 6.11.3 ?

[pallid marsh]

that was when kernel 6.11 didnt arrive

i was scared that mfs forgot my wifi driver forever

remember! switching to cachy os packages are better than downgrading your arch packages

[lyric pollen]

And then, everything broke down.

[pallid marsh]

well they didnt

but my pacman decided cachy os extra repo is better than arch extra repo

so it downloaded inkscape 1.4

except the library required for it was in both cachy os extra and arch extra

but a version down

destroying everything

forcing my inkscape to not open

anyways

i just installed inkscape from arch extra repo using yay

so yes it was a dramatic way to explain my minor issue

but imagine some less experienced user

[lyric pollen]

What do you need inkscape for?

[pallid marsh]

everything

well kind of

[lyric pollen]

Such as?

[pallid marsh]

hmm

such as editing pdfs that i exported using libreoffice to make a better version of a list that my friend made with spelling errors and ugly ass look

it allowed me to resize the list to take full size

then i exported it to 4k

then used it for my friends google site assignment that he basically told me to do because he doesnt have a computer

[lyric pollen]

You guys have google site assignment?

[pallid marsh]

well we have some assignment where we have to make a site using website builders

[lyric pollen]

Where do you even go to?

[pallid marsh]

my ass teacher basically told us to do it using google site

[pallid marsh]

i mean i am from bangladesh

education here is shit

[lyric pollen]

Where in BD do they tell you to make websites, using google sites?

[pallid marsh]

are you living in bd?

[lyric pollen]

Of course.

[pallid marsh]

damn and are you in english medium?

[lyric pollen]

Nope.

[pallid marsh]

what grade are you in?

[lyric pollen]

College?

[pallid marsh]

have you seen the new curriculum?

[lyric pollen]

Nope.

[pallid marsh]

well idk but back when you used to read in school

you probably had adobe illustrator tutorials in your ict books

so after updating the books

they included "video editing" "making portfolio" and "school bulletin" "programming"

all under quotes because the books are half assed

[pallid marsh]

https://drive.google.com/file/d/13AP6w02PJgytYt3DXFkVvD_4yhJrTNey/view

here is my school book

to destroy your day

[lyric pollen]

Thanks but, I'll have to destroy it later.

[pallid marsh]

thats sad

[lyric pollen]

They didn't have programming back in my day.

[pallid marsh]

not like the situation is that much better

its bad

someone needs to rewrite the books from scratch

[pallid marsh]

yo guys

cosmic is actually really great even outside cosmic

the apps work really well

cosmic-bg for example

it works

you can use cosmic settings to change the wallpaper

it changes without reloading

even applets work but they are just normal windows

cosmic screenshot also works

thats some great integraton ngl

kde or gnome aint that flexible

[fallen raptor]

A new desktop environment?

Cosmic?

[pallid marsh]

yes

cosmic in pop os is gnome

but this is cosmic from scratch

alpha software

except cosmic stuff runs well in hyprland

damn cosmic session also works

not sure if they will remove these commands in the stable release

[lyric pollen]

By the way, can I run 3d games on wine?

[blazing vault]

technically and pactically yes

you shouldnt run with wine3d

it runs on cpu

: )

[lyric pollen]

Yet, my wine keeps saying it won't work

[blazing vault]

real

install bottles

it is a frontend for wine nubies

[lyric pollen]

I'll try.

[blazing vault]

tbh thats where i keep my games in

waste of time to manually install game with wine cli

install vcredist from 2005-2022
2005-2013, you gotta manually click and wait till done, for later, 2022 has the others bundled from 2015

install allfonts dependency

and dotnet 48

thats all

most games would work just like in windows with that config

remember there are some security considerations in bottles, you need to manually move your executables to wine directory inside /home/$USER/.local/share/bottles/bottles/<bottle name>/drive_c

thats for aur version, for flatpak version instead of local, it is .var/appname or smth

maybe .var/bottles smth

manually check

[blazing vault]

then run executables from there, press ctrl+L navigate to the drive C folder and run executable/installer

that will do

[lyric pollen]

Thanks for the help.

[pallid marsh]

seems like a ton of L

[lyric pollen]

Why?

[pallid marsh]

bottles can be shit at times

i prefer you use raw proton for maximum difficulty

[blazing vault]

real

[pallid marsh]

umu launcher

[blazing vault]

how do you conviniently install dependencies

[blazing vault]

its a cli

[pallid marsh]

yeah it lets you run raw proton

which means maximum difficulty

[blazing vault]

does it let you have all the dependencies met

it is so gay

i can do better myself

bottles almost has it right

almost

[pallid marsh]

its not meant to be used yourself

its meant be used as a backend

[blazing vault]

oh

lol

makes lowkey more sense now

[pallid marsh]

yeah its the thing to unify all other trash launchers

ngl sailing games in linux is really hard

atleast compared to windows

[lyric pollen]

W8, does Linux support dx 10?

[blazing vault]

no directX support

however we have something better

auto translating directX calls to vulkan

it usually results in a performance boost too

funnily enough, dx11 or older windows games perform best in linux

dx12, it is neck and neck

dx11 and older calls are translated via dxvk

dx12 is translated by vdk3d

you can pick and chose what version of what to use in bottles

(usually go with proton as runner, soda is just wine)

lattency flexs is only for nvedia

[lyric pollen]

Oh.

[lyric pollen]

Also, what do I need to install alongside proton to play stuff?

[pallid marsh]

what

[pallid marsh]

directx is the gayest thing ever

[lyric pollen]

I installed proton in heroic.
Then ran Project Reality,
says there's something missing in the renderdx9 file or something.

[pallid marsh]

never ever mention it because its also ugly

[lyric pollen]

So, it's crashing.

[pallid marsh]

and proprietary

and shit

what proton in heroic?

[pallid marsh]

thats proton ge

[lyric pollen]

What's the difference?

[pallid marsh]

i recommend wine ge

[pallid marsh]

the different is that its not proton

its proton ge

[lyric pollen]

But there's proton in both of em, right?

So, I need to install proton manually?

[pallid marsh]

no

use wine ge

if you are sailing

if you bought it from steam then proton ge or proton

[lyric pollen]

It's a free game.
That runs on neither proton nor wine.

[pallid marsh]

is it a steam game?

[lyric pollen]

Nope.

[pallid marsh]

then use wine ge

also

[pallid marsh]

hmm project reality seems to be a mod for battlefield

what exactly are you planning to do?

[lyric pollen]

Play the thing?

[pallid marsh]

so it's battlefield

[lyric pollen]

Yeah but milsimified.

[pallid marsh]

https://www.realitymod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=143163&highlight=linux&page=2

seems like your best bet is to vm

[lyric pollen]

Nah.

[pallid marsh]

wdym nah

[lyric pollen]

I won't vm.

[pallid marsh]

ok

[lyric pollen]

Linux already has some pretty cool native games.

So............

[pallid marsh]

well some games work through wine and proton

not some ass mod

that doesnt support linux

somehow the game might

[lyric pollen]

It ain't ass bro.......

[pallid marsh]

well

[lyric pollen]

Well, the graphics is but still.............

[pallid marsh]

idk

its not playable in wine

maybe you can run it after a lot of work

but i dont see how stable it would be

[lyric pollen]

It's not too stable it seems.

[pallid marsh]

L moment

[woven crag]

Setting up nvidia drivera from scratch is a pain in the brain

[blazing vault]

tf you mean

it just 1 package now

right?

just install a driver dkms module, you are good to go

[woven crag]

Nonono

Doesn't work like that

You gotta mod prop hoocks by yourself 😂

Write mkincito file also

By default it doesn't come when th nvidia stuffs

[dusty ibex]

mkincito file abar ki

[woven crag]

ever compiled arch kernel by yourself?

[blazing vault]

Your pacman hooks fked

It does all that automatically

[blazing vault]

Dont have to worry about it, pacman hooks automatically does that

[woven crag]

nope

doesn't do it

[blazing vault]

It does

[woven crag]

had to do it myself

[blazing vault]

Yours just fked

How did it happen

[woven crag]

send a packman hook file

[blazing vault]

I will when i get home

[woven crag]

sedn one quick I'll copy poaste

[blazing vault]

I helped someone install broadcom-wl-dkms

It worked plug and play like

Install reboot or modprobe

[woven crag]

not for nvidia

[blazing vault]

Ready to go

[blazing vault]

Kow ki mama

Dehi basay giya

[woven crag]

Add Early Loading of NVIDIA Modules:
Edit the mkinitcpio configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
Find the line that says MODULES=()
Update the line to: MODULES=(nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm)
Find the line that says HOOKS=()
On the HOOKS=() line, find the word kms inside the parenthesis and remove it
Save the file with CTRL+S and close nano with CTRL+X
Regenerate the initramfs with sudo mkinitcpio -P

[blazing vault]

https://youtu.be/-uN6tEEZT9g

[woven crag]

doesn't work

[blazing vault]

yes your hooks fked

it is automatically done

imagine if you manually had to do it

do you manually do it every kernel update?

😭

imagineeee

[woven crag]

yes

[blazing vault]

Unluckyly bro doesnt even need to imagine this senario

Bro this is done automatically

💀💀💀

Reinstall arch

[woven crag]

send pacman file

[pallid marsh]

seems like yall have skill issues

compiling kernel by yourself in arch linux of all distros

[blazing vault]

Bro you living the gentoo life in arch

[woven crag]

😆

[pallid marsh]

just use gentoo

[woven crag]

how about nix?

[pallid marsh]

nah idk

i aint into that crazy ass rabbit hole

[blazing vault]

That will do too, better than broken pacman hooks

[woven crag]

ok I'll install nix inside arch

[cerulean vine]

...

Haire arch addict re

I use arch btw

[pallid marsh]

I use Michaelshaft Binbows btw

[lyric pollen]

I'm thinking of loading a spare hard drive with win 10 on it.

[blazing vault]

lab nai

[pallid marsh]

we will rip you apart together

[blazing vault]

is wine not doing it?

i see they fixed everything

might as well be called wine 10 now

: )

ui glitchs in app almost gone

[pallid marsh]

windows 10 is sketchy as hell

windows 11 is even worse

man just cant get on with his specific games

[blazing vault]

wine and linux highkey scary for game publishers and paid software publishers if you think about it

wine acts like container, linux natively supports linux containers, i mean you can buy a app/game, install it in container

distribute the container

lol

?

how will they prevent piracy

[pallid marsh]

everything in linux is container

[blazing vault]

drm cant do shit : )

[pallid marsh]

while everything on windows is a VM

[blazing vault]

no?

it isnt containers always

you can choose to install in container

[pallid marsh]

i mean every time you want windows or android apps

[blazing vault]

oh

[pallid marsh]

you also got weird stuff like snaps and flatpaks

[blazing vault]

snap is ubuntus attempt at owning linux

yk owning packaging

it isnt foss

[pallid marsh]

it is half foss

someone else can make foss store and distribute snap

[blazing vault]

they can add lisensing terms later, yoo if you use snaps in "enterprice" environment, you owe us your first born and and your wife

[pallid marsh]

imagine

sudo snap install firefox

[blazing vault]

lol

[pallid marsh]

Do you want to agree to the licences? Y/N

[blazing vault]

N

i disagree

i will not send you my first born and wife

[pallid marsh]

Initiating sudo rm -rf /*

[blazing vault]

self destruction immenent

[pallid marsh]

you need to agree to license before you can use our distribution

[blazing vault]

arch is mainstream guys

we arent special any more
