Maybe they fixed it or something at some point but mine suuuuucked until I got a new screen with a new fingerprint sensor. Now I don’t have issues very often and if I do its from junk on my finger or screen or something and it clears up with a quick wipe.

Last used Linux over 10 years ago when I was in college for ITNA. It didn’t work out for me and I drive trucks for a living now lol. Computers/gaming has always been my hobby though. Decided a few weeks ago to try out Linux again on a spare computer I have. Started with EndeavorOS and broke it somehow. Went to mint for like a week and couldn’t get used to it for some reason and decided to try EndeavorOS again. Been using it for about a month now as my primary and only using the windows PC for gaming and it’s been great. Does take some tinkering and googling to get it how it want it from a fresh install though which I’ve had to do a couple times now because of hardware failures lol

Nope. I think the drive just died at a bad time honestly. I’ve had issues with it in the passed and the computer itself came from an e-scrap pile because the water pump for the CPU cooler was dead. Has worked great since swapping that out until the nvme died. Even after installing the new nvme and reinstalling EOS I couldnt see the old nvme.

Can’t help but I just did this myself. Was a fairly fresh install so I didn’t lose anything other than have to reconfigure some stuff and install some things.

Buuuuut

What happened dto me was something crashed during the update and my computer went to a black screen. So I just left it for a bit to hopefully finish even without the display. Turned the computer off and my nvme was just gone. Ended up having to get a new one.

uWu

As someone who recently fell in love with EndeavorOS I don’t wanna fall down the cat girl pipeline…

would consider myself very much a noob and I’m bumbling my way through it. Just kinda worked my way through it and pretty sure I broke my mint install a bit before hopping to EndeavorOS and will probably break this one before I’m done as well.

That is so bizarre to me. According to this article, Destiny 2 was already playable on Linux when it was officially ported to Google Stadia, and no one, not even Bungie, can explain why they won’t support it on Linux or Steam Deck, much less ban a player for trying. That’s crazy.

Yeah I have no idea either. From what I’ve seen online it’s something to do with the anti cheat battleye but that runs on Linux so it’s basically just them telling the Linux community to go pound sand.

Can’t answer your question since it’s not something I ever thought about but I recently, within the last 2 weeks, started the same thing. I tried Mint and EndeavorOS so far and honestly I probably won’t leave EndeavorOS again. I installed it first. Confused the fuck out of myself because years ago I use Ubuntu so I had that like hard coded in me and couldn’t get my head around arch. After playing with Mint for a week or so I’m back on EndeavorOS and I love it. I really really want to switch my main PC over but I have a Plex server and audio book shelf server running there as well as atleast 1 game that playing on Linux just isn’t possible since Bungie will ban you for running destiny 2 on Linux.

As someone new to Linux the fact that I could just check a box on steam and suddenly I could install and run the witcher 3 blew my mind. I had no idea. Last I checked on Linux gaming the solution was install windows 😂

Honestly no idea. I ended up switching over to EndeavorOS today so I need to get it set back up again. 😂

There is a windows theme in the Mint themer that looks like it is spot on to look just like windows. I love the look of linux over windows though so didn’t try it.

I tried Endeavor for a bit before switching to Mint. May have just my me being to new to be jumping into Endeavor but I struggled and switch to mint within a couple days. was a beautiful distro though. Will probably jump back at some point since I’m running Linux on a spare PC right next to my main windows PC.

Rasies hand. Finally jumping back into Linux after years of Windows. Didn’t really think of the gaming impact other than “so many games don’t work on Linux so I can’t use my main machine.” I’m lucky enough to have 3 computers currently even though 1 of them is a third gen i7 and the other I got for free out of the trash so it’s specs aren’t great either. Enoug for me to install Endeavor then Mint to see how it goes gaming on them.

Got core control working. Did have to update something in the Kernel to get full control and access to stepping but it’s working perfectly now.

Couldn’t get that to work sadly. spent hours trying to build synergy on windows wasn’t having luck and found barrier. Would start on windows just fine but the linux install would only start as a server for some reason. Ended up just buying Synergy since it’s much cheaper than a hardware KVM.

Got it working. Thank you. Now if only it was as easy to compile and build apps on windows as it is on Linux I’d be set. I’ve spent the better part of the night trying to build synergy on my windows machine because I’m to cheap to just hand them money for the compiled version 😂

I will try it when I get home. Thank you!

Awesome thank you. Should I remove the driver’s I installed? FWIW I had this exact issue on Windows when that card was there so it’s not purely a driver issue.

It’s there no option to update things with a GUI or do you just prefer to use terminal. Currently trying to decide between mint and endeavor. Haven’t used Linux since Ubuntu way back in college in like 2011

Which is why you never throw away a computer with the drives in it and you never throw drives away without physically destroying them. Don’t give other people the chance to see your weird shit.
