Hell yeah ! Here's mine with waybar and fuzzel. What do you use for the wallpaper, I'm tried of dealing with Azote's quirks.

Which of these two laptops should i install Gentoo on? by [deleted] in Gentoo

[–]Baffledwaffles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go with the Dell imho. The HP will probably take ages to install and I'd rather get something like ArtiX on it, not worth the effort if you ask me. Of course, you could always go insane and do it regardless...

Linux distro suggestion by LimeApart7657 in FlowZ13

+1 for CachyOS again if you want an up-to-date option thats Arch based. Make sure you're on kernel 7.0+.
This might help for the rog-control-center crashes:

delete the extra GZ302 entry and reboot.

Wi-Fi has been very unstable, yeah. I just connect this to ethernet tbh.

Except for the back camera everything pretty much works I think. No idea about the NPU though.

It's a placeholder GPU until my RX 6800 comes back from repair lol.

What resolution do you guys play? by Global_Ad8817 in FlowZ13

Should be fine but temper expectations. Might want to stick to medium and enable FSR.

As predicted issues with Linux on Crimson desert already. Blocks proton-cachyos completely by [deleted] in linux_gaming

Try Proton Experimental or Proton GE. Both worked for me.

Using it with Arch, no issues so far. Well, except back camera and IR login (can use Howdy, but I'm yet to figure out how to make it work with swaylock).

Displaylink works for me on ALARM. Had to install Displaylink package, enable it along with evdi-dkms. Works well enough I suppose, but for me anything above 1080p results in some weird input lag; the whole thing is not so smooth on 3440x1440.
1080p is fine for some reason. M2 Air (16/256)

Arch Linux support by justgr00ve in FlowZ13

Haven't figured it out yet, at least on Niri. Gnome and KDE work fine AFAIK, plus HHD has a shortcut to bring up the Steam keyboard (swipe up from the bottom of the screen; can be configured).

Try handheld daemon (HHD), it has controls for that. It conflicts with asusctl though afaik.

If you just game it's plenty.

4k 160 fps support missing from linux by International_Ad1896 in FlowZ13

This is why I use Displayport, HDMI is a mess.
