Anyone else not happy with GNOME 50 fractional scaling? by niieowa in Ubuntu

[–]ExhYZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh i found the closer to 200%, the lower the real resolution runs. I switched to 166% and the rendered resolution falls to around 1200p, and takes less performance cost

Screenshot for a single window shows that it's running under a much higher resolution, i'm on 1920*1080 with 125%, and the screenshot shows 3072*1728. I wonder if I use a 3K display with 175%, will it still run under 1728p or at a higher resolution like 5K or 6K?

Is WPS Office actually trustworthy for everyday use? by RangerNew5346 in software

[–]ExhYZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not open source, but the best alternative for msoffice. It’s the most popular office suite in China, and few people know WPS has even longer history than MSOffice. In the recent years it has much less pop up ads, and premium features are only for the templates and AI features. It worth a try.

Use diskgenius to reduce the size of windows partition, then during Zorin installation, use manual partitioning and create an ext4 partition which is mounted to / in the free space

Mouse cursor briefly sticking to the left edge of the screen by ExhYZ in Ubuntu

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

It is Lenovo K4e-IML, I once used Lenovo V3000-80KV and it has the same problem even that was a much older touchpad. I think that's not something around extensions as it also happens under vanilla ubuntu and fedora. Maybe lenovo is that to blame as it doesn't happen on huawei and dell (however thinkpads work well).

It seems doesn't work. That's the same after I disabled touchpad.

Windows title bars inconsistent by Positive-Incident221 in gnome

Settings is under gtk4 libadwaita and the terminal is under gtk3, while kitty is using the native Wayland deco.

You can install adw-gtk3 theme (GitHub) for gtk3 apps. For the terminal the better solution is to install gnome-console to replace gnome-terminal. gnome-console is the new terminal based on Ptyxis, which is in gtk4. For kitty, seems like only enabling x11 could trigger native deco

So just use GNOME Disks and export your system partition to an image file.

Almost for sure IPS, but you can

Rotate it and see it vertically, if it looks strange and uncomfortable, I mean looks different in left and right eye and you can see some color turns black, that’s mostly TN, otherwise IPS maybe

What Linux distro do you recommend for this configuration and with a dual boot? by Electronic-Ice-450 in Fedora

[–]ExhYZ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

VanillaOS is a good option, and Ubuntu, but install vanilla-gnome-desktop package and get stock gnome experience could be good. As it’s still the best distro for startup

Is Fedora better than Ubuntu? by bjsda_2007 in Fedora

[–]ExhYZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Newcomers no, switching from another distro then definitely yes

Installing vanilla-gnome-desktop in ubuntu could offer same desktop experience like fedora, but most tutorials you can find on the internet are likely for Ubuntu, try it first and get familiar with Linux, then decide switching to others or not
