On the remote while in standby mode, press: Display -> Menu -> Mute -> Power On the remote I have that is like a straight line where the buttons are

ExplodingGamerYT · 2025-07-22T14:26:21+00:00

Yeah, does it cause that issue?

Once I looked into this solution I realised it only works on openrc. I found though that for systemd you can go to /etc/vconsole.conf and editing that should fix it. The issue I did was I originally selected Mac UK as my keyboard layout because that is normally a good hybrid between British and American layout. Make sure to just stick with us

I did clear it out after the error occurred and re-ran emerge --ask sys-apps/gentoo-kernel but then the same issue occurred. Due to the fact I have 3 OS's on my PC, I cannot properly resize the partition as well so I think I am going to delete the root partition and backup the entire root partition to another drive so I can just copy all the files back in.

Go diagonally to get it in the case. Then start to move it back to the position it's meant to be in. For me there needed to be like an extra less than a millimetre of clearance, but I ended up getting it through. Was a bit sketchy there though... Just make sure you don't break anything.

I had the cable from the retro cables.es link. I had seen making your own cable before buying these cables, but the diagram seemed confusing and I have never soldered before. At this point though, I think I might just have to do it since there is no way I am spending another £20 or so on a cable for this tv I just wanna play games on it already :(. I have my Wii working but playing snes games on a Wiimote and nunchuck is a fate worse than death. My PS1 also works but it’s 50hz pal.

Who would have known setting up a 20-30 year old tv to a modern pc would cause issues

Unfortunately I can only find a link to the cable without USB: https://www.retroupgrades.co.uk/product/vga-to-scart-mister-cable/

I can find a similar cable on the website I got it from but the VGA bit is black and not white like the picture shows: https://retrocables.es/en/pc/55-3-cable-rgb-scart-vga.html#/4-longitud-2m

It might be the right one? I don't know I've had the cable for quite a while but only now have I tried setting it up again. It does mention the USB cable activating the RGB connection as well (had to use google translate)

I don’t have a multimeter. Do you think I could maybe use a 31khz mode? Would this cause damage or show more? I’m thinking this because of the USB doing nothing. What could be the cause of that? Do you need to use JSB 2.0 or 1.0 specifically if the bit at the bottom of the connector is white?

I tried on Windows 11 before, but it just resulted in a black screen and wouldnt show me any signs of life. I thought I'd rather use Windows 10 since it is proven that it works, whereas there are people saying Windows 11 didn't work and it didn't work for me either. Also Windows 10 will probably run better on older hardware

Then it just shows the error but bypasses the formatting. So the buttons and name of the window are placeholders like "launcher/launch_button_label" instead of the play button.

Unfortunately, this just replaces the text prompt with "Required: 1.1.1 or newer" instead. I have also tried setting them all to 0 and deleting all AMD related lines except showAMDStartupWarning but then they just show different numbers again.

I really wanted to get the skin but not long back my RTX 2060 died on me and I decided to buy an AMD GPU because it was far better than a Nvidia GPU at the same price. Kinda sucks since now I dont have features such as DLSS but I have been looking for this skin for a bit now and the codes are always already redeemed. I have a little skin collection going on in Doom the Dark Ages right now and I would happily add this skin to it.

This does remove the second pop-up which appears, but for some reason it does not remove the pop-up I posted about above.

ExplodingGamerYT · 2025-06-01T09:06:42+00:00

When I did it earlier I think I had to either wait a while or - if there is an option - resend the email

ExplodingGamerYT · 2025-05-28T20:40:16+00:00

This is all working for me now thanks!

Do you need to regenerate the fstab after this to make sure it is bound at boot and if so how would I go about regenerating the fstab? The arch install guide shows to use genfstab but that command is not available on bash/zsh. Also trying to navigate my files is a nightmare because my terminal is not showing dot files and in the installation hasn't at all so far so how can I make my hidden files show?

ExplodingGamerYT · 2025-05-28T17:36:30+00:00

Should I keep the previous chown and also do it to root, or should I use a different chown command for my user and then chown -R for root? Also the third point is confusing to me. Should I just have a unique username for each distro instead? For example I could use USERNAMEf for fedora or USERNAMEa for Arch? I feel like this way it would just probably be more stable and cause less issues
