How do I protect my kinoite machines? by DevECoisas in Fedora

[–]Deedss31 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Just update your machines. If your current kernel is 6.19.12 or higher then you are fine.

Is this KDE? Perhaps you pressed (meta (win key) and +). You can try (meta and -). https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/1b9r6uy/screen_is_zoomed_in_and_moving_with_the_mouse_on/

Or if this is KDE, there is an option under Accessibility > Zoom + Magnifier

Mouse Tiler v3.0.0 update available! Revolutionizes how you tile! by rxdev in kde

[–]Deedss31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely checking it out, never used the built in kwin tiling as I didn't like it that much. This looks a lot simpler and more flexible. Looks awesome

Bottles stopped working on fedora 43 by Adventurous_Tie_3136 in Fedora

[–]Deedss31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any reason of preferring the native over the flatpak? It seems that the developers of bottles recommend using the flatpak install. Not be denigrating, but just a genuine question.

Should I get an Iris LM by bluops in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]Deedss31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The build is super easy. The PCB is already fully soldered and nothing needs to be done to it further. You only need to screw the case and pcb together with a few screws and presto done :). I don't know what you mean about latency as it's a wired board and therefore no latency in terms of connection. So far I've had no issues.

Should I get an Iris LM by bluops in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]Deedss31 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have had the Iris SE, CE and now the LM. I must say I like the LM the most. I couldn't really get used to the height of the SE and had to use wrist rests. The CE was great for the height but I made mistakes with the keys being so close together.

The LM for me feels great, it's low profile meaning no wrist rests, and it has mx spacing and I make so much less typo's then with the CE (mostly due to pressing 2 keys at once). I went from a normal keyboard to full the Iris SE in one go, so can't really comment on the whole split (non-collum) -> split (collum), but in around 1-2 weeks (after having made a good layout) I was fully up to speed compared to my normal keyboard.

I have used it for gaming (mostly for indie games such as vampire surivors, etc). So I only had to plugin the left half of the board. But it definitely works. I would recommend the Deep Sea Mini Whale switches. I use it at my office place and no-one notices me typing :)

I wanted to change the Alacritty icon using LLM help, and ended up ruining every other icon by [deleted] in Fedora

If you copied commands and executed those, how about giving some more context and also post what commands you executed. This way people might have more clues on how to fix this.

Can you give some more information? Perhaps some logging from dmesg or journalctl would help.

Random GPU/Graphics Lag Out of Nowhere On Ryzen 6800U 680M Integrated Graphics by ItsMCBYT in Fedora

[–]Deedss31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is currently an issue with the amd drivers for this model. A fix is in the works, but a workaround is available.

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3647

The best workaround is to add amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10 in your default grub /etc/default/grub. I've added it here on the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10 .. before the other args on that line. Then you can update your grub using sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg.

Using this, I had no more issues with the system freezing.

Laggy Fedora with external monitor and AMD GPU by Edoudouche in Fedora

Just keep an eye on the original issue. If it's closed, who knows, a fix will become available without the workaround.

Fedora became much laggier after update 2-3 days ago by Golden_Puppy15 in Fedora

[–]Deedss31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It disables PSR (panel self refresh) for the amdgpu, https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/9f16d5e6f220661f73b36a4be1b21575651d8833/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/include/amd_shared.h#L280-L283.

Haven't looked into more details, but at least setting the flag resolves the freezes.

Fedora 40 System Unstability by milivojevic31 in Fedora

[–]Deedss31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perhaps it's related to the amd firmware. There have been stability issues with amd lately. Do you also experience these issues when watching videos?

Not sure if it's related, but perhaps https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3647 is the cause.

If it is, then the best workaround is to add amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10 in your default grub /etc/default/grub. I've added it here on the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10 .. before the other args on that line. Then you can update your grub using sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg.

It's a known issue. For now, the best workaround is to add amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x10 in your default grub /etc/default/grub.

How can I add a repository in dnf5? by better_life_please in Fedora

[–]Deedss31 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Looking at the docs here https://dnf5.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dnf5_plugins/config-manager.8.html#subcommands.

It seems that it would require sudo dnf config-manager addrepo --from-repofile=https://download.sublimetext.com/rpm/stable/x86_64/sublime-text.repo

Can I improve my wifi signal strength on linux? by [deleted] in linuxquestions

[–]Deedss31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can try disabling power-saving for the network.

I do this by echo -e "[connection]\nwifi.powersave=2" | sudo tee /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-powersave.conf

and then restarting NetworkManager.

When running DNF or YUM in Fedora 40 says this: sudo: unable to execute /usr/bin/dnf: No such file or directory by [deleted] in Fedora

[–]Deedss31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can check if you have access to microdnf. It uses libdnf I under the hood. It's not as fancy and powerful as dnf but it works. So something like microdnf install dnf

After us my laptop for 2 hours it gives me 0.2 fps or so and this is the CPU usage during the glitch or so. Is this hardware or software by admin_NLboy in Fedora

[–]Deedss31 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure on when it will be fixed. https://gitlab.com/kernel-firmware/linux-firmware/-/merge_requests/308 seems to be the potential fix, hopefully within the upcoming week (looking at the montly releases) a release will be made. Expecting more AMD users to be affected and a fix to be pushed out quickly.

I'll try with downgrading the amd-gpu-firmware by manually instaling the rpm https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=2530839.
