I thought with cow file systems programs didn’t have to explicitly reflink since normal copies are already reflinks?

They literally said the issue was an unintentional bug and then fixed it. How is that damage control?

No

Will it not use it even after the ram fills up? I wouldn’t want the compressed part be prioritised anyways

Do you need a swappiness over 1 if you don’t have another swap device?

Isn’t this already a thing on Wayland?

It needs webgl and wasm, it doesn’t block anything

Every update, Wayland breaks

Would you elaborate? If anything 555 and 560 should be more stable on Wayland

Xiaomi probably has some kind of maintenance app that can run automated checks, do that. If you’re paranoid, check if the bootloader is unlocked and if so reflash the stock rom.

I feel silly for not thinking this… It works fine without the mod unless you try to change resolution/fullscreen settings.

Apparently the mod is supposed to disable in-game resolution controls and force it to borderless window at monitor resolution when the flipmodel swapchain is enabled (which is necessary for hdr). It seems to do this by always launching the game in a 720p window and depending on if the custom swapchain is enabled it either resizes it to the screen or applies the in-game resolution setting. Gamescope doesn’t respond to the change and keeps outputting 720p in a 1440p window :/.

I can’t wait for wine wayland

Edit: Just found that using the --force-windows-fullscreen option fixes this issue!!

Guessing from how this change required 3+ implementations before it became official according to the gitlab page, maybe it’s a chicken and egg situation. Hdr is a lot of work so maybe people don’t want to implement an unfinalized version that might change

Wow the icon saga is finished!?

If anyone wants to throw away a couple hours, there was SO much discussion (and initially drama) over it: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/269

Gpu brand shouldn’t be a factor, just buy whatever’s better value.

I’ve used nvidia on Wayland for a year and the issues are greatly exaggerated, and if you have a cpu with an igpu you can plug your monitor(s) into the motherboard to get around wayland-related ones (there’s probably some latency impact for games but I can’t tell).

Currently the problems (that I know of) with nvidia drivers are that colors get muted if you enable hdr, steam’s web interfaces appear corrupted or flicker unless you resize them, there is no memory spillover to ram, and the nvidia ‘x server’ settings app doesn’t support wayland.

And keep in mind that issues tend to get resolved over time. When I first built my PC the nvidia gpu would cause xwayland apps to flicker and didn’t support nigth light or transparent panels in kde. The amd igpu would turn the screen pure white if I changed windowing related kde settings. These don’t happen anymore.

This is not how it looks out of the box and changing its looks doesn’t make it feel better to use

Kde, gnome, wayland wms like hyperland and budgie edit: apparently not wayland but keep it in the list.

I’ve never heard of half the ones you mentioned so age difference chacks out. Deepin looks nice.

Btw mate was my choice as well when I last tried mint, it felt faster and less annoying in the first 5 minutes.

Any that uses a modern de? Mint still looks and behaves like it’s from windows xp days. And for a distro touted to be easy to use as a windows user, it has design quirks (unclickable address bar in file manager, not installing proprietary nvidia drivers etc) that create unnecessary friction.

Linux mint might be many things but it’s definitely not ‘attractive’

I wish there were comparison numbers with windows too

This worked. Apparently I had all the usb devices connected to the same controller and it seems linux initialises them controller by controller. Thanks

I did try messing with the hook order but it’s already as early as it can be.
