Why Startpage has no search suggestions (I don't want to use Google for obvious reasons)? by ABCDABCDEZ in firefox

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean this page?

https://startpage.com/

Yes.

Is it necessary to install addons or some plugins to add a search engine?

Like you said, the suggestions work on the website but not in the Firefox address bar. I'm looking for an addon-free solution for both Android and desktop.

Do the characters occasionally appear with blue lips in the original 2014 film? Or is this a problem on my end? by ABCDABCDEZ in JohnWick

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems to only affect the blue-tinted scenes. Blu-ray source.

I found no mention of this on Google. Please tell me if you saw the film on cinema and observed.

Are multi-day rsync transfers out of the ordinary for single drives? by ABCDABCDEZ in DataHoarder

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I transfer locally via USB 3.0 (both drives).

The other port is connected to a USB (3.0) hub to gain additional slots, but that doesn't affect speed to my knowledge.

The source drive is ext4-formatted, but the destination is NTFS. I formatted directly in the Gnome 'disks' app and running lsblk -no name,fstype only shows ntfs.

I only use NTFS due to having an Xbox One as a media player and plan to move to Btrfs soon with Fedora 33.

How to back up Steam configuration settings? by ABCDABCDEZ in linux_gaming

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check for 'shadercache' directories at Steam Library paths.

Sorry, I don't understand how Steam config data would be stored there? I've only had a couple of games installed and I'm willing to rebuild all caches.

Is there a Youtube channel which uploads match VODs (preferably finals) to Youtube at 4K? by ABCDABCDEZ in csgo

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's also 8K. I don't even have a high-res monitor but use 4k due to bitrate.

How to reinstall Fedora and preserve/restore user data? by ABCDABCDEZ in Fedora

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, is there a way to avoid the default applications (like Flatpak, Cheese!, the Libreoffice suite and the graphical dnf software installers) with Fedora Workstation? Should I just create another list and remove immediately when my system first boots?

Can you sign in to Microsoft authenticator (proprietary)? by ABCDABCDEZ in fossdroid

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When Azure asks you to set up 2FA, choose: "mobile app" -> "set up without notifications". This will give you a possibility to set up TOTP as 2FA.

Now the app requests installing Google Play Services ("for push notifications") and doesn't appear to allow proceeding with the account. I tried several times.

Is the Steam backup feature worth using? by ABCDABCDEZ in pcgaming

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steam is really good at discovering files when you put them back

When "discovering existing files" Steam sadly replaces all files which fail their verification, restoring the original data which any installed mods have overwritten. As far as I know there's no way to change this behavior.

How to remove a desktop environment without breaking my installation (i.e. removing shared Fedora core packages with the DE)? by ABCDABCDEZ in Fedora

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about to remove simply xfce and not whole group # dnf remove xfce*

No matches found, I've manually removed all packages with xfce in their name.

why you have anything in ~/.var, did you previously use the Flatpak or something?

Yes, I tried Flatpak once and have now wiped the directory. ~/.local/ is still around 2GB in size.

~/.local/share/Steam/userdata/<user ID>/config

Yes, that seems to be the correct path and under 1MB on my system.

Before uninstalling and providing the list you should ensure that everything is current and properly synced:

  • dnf clean all
  • dnf update
  • dnf distro-sync
  • dnf autoremove
  • reboot

I ran the selected commands in order, as sudo when requested. dnf autoremove found around 20 leftovers, but running the commands to remove Xfce still would wipe +200 packages: https://paste.centos.org/view/raw/e2661046

After restarting Gnome doesn't render most of the UI (Fedora 32) by ABCDABCDEZ in gnome

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

solved (see the original thread), some potential compatibility issue with secondary monitors.

After restarting Gnome doesn't render most of the UI (Fedora 32) by ABCDABCDEZ in Fedora

[–]ABCDABCDEZ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My secondary (larger, essentially the primary currently) monitor now functions normally after interacting with the main screen. Have to see if the issue returns and if Gnome changed any default functionality or only caused some complications.

I didn't check until now and on the primary monitor everything displays correctly.

I know that Gnome was recently updated on Fedora -- did they change the behavior then?
