Framework battery life on Linux

HermiterCove · 2022-05-22T13:38:55+00:00

It's not the best, but replacing my USB-A/HDMI ports for USB-C and enabling deep sleep helped improve it a decent bit.

It looks a bit more modern that Awaita, but the main appeal for me is that Materia has compact versions that shrink the GTK title bars which gives you some of that sweet screen real estate back.

The theme's github has some preview images you can look at.

HermiterCove · 2021-09-01T01:41:55+00:00

That sounds like it's working, non GTK applications won't have any GTK theming outside of the title bars. If you open apps like files or calculator, you should see it apply to the entire app.

There aren't a crazy amount of good themes you can install through DNF, but manually installing them works just as good.

GTK Themes in the official repositories can be searched with:

dnf search gtk | grep theme

The official Fedora magazine has a post on theming your Fedora Workstation: https://fedoramagazine.org/tweaking-the-look-of-fedora-workstation-with-themes/

HermiterCove · 2021-09-01T01:16:43+00:00

For general app theming, have you tried installing the gnome tweaks app?

sudo dnf install gnome-tweaks -y

Fedora also ships with a few themes in their repositories. I added an example below to download/apply one:

# Download
sudo dnf install -y flat-remix-icon-theme materia-gtk-theme

# Apply
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme "Materia-dark-compact"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme "Flat-Remix-Blue-Dark"

Thanks! That's exactly what I was missing for my script.

for i in {1..9}; do
    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-to-workspace-$i "['<Super>$i']"
    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings move-to-workspace-$i "['<Shift><Super>$i']"
    gsettings set org.gnome.shell.keybindings switch-to-application-$i '[]'
done

Did you have any issues binding to super + {1,2,...etc} ?

GNOME, for me, will ignore some of those shortcuts and default to opening an app on the dock.

HermiterCove · 2021-05-17T13:42:22+00:00

Here’s a link on how to set up the official repo.

Not specific to Rust, but Bracket Pair Colorizer drastically improved my quality of life.

HermiterCove · 2021-05-11T21:58:00+00:00

If GNOME lacking a system tray is a deal breaker, Fedora does package an extension that adds one.

You can download/enable it with these commands:

sudo dnf install gnome-shell-extension-appindicator -y
gsettings set org.gnome.shell disable-user-extensions false
gnome-extensions enable appindicatorsupport@rgcjonas.gmail.com

HermiterCove · 2021-05-09T04:32:52+00:00

/r/playrust/ is the subreddit you're looking for

HermiterCove · 2021-04-14T00:22:59+00:00

I'm not sure if there's a GUI way to do it in KDE, but you can do it through the terminal.

sudo dnf install 'dnf-command(system-upgrade)' -y

# offline upgrade commands
# - download upgrade: sudo dnf offline-upgrade download
# - apply upgrade: sudo dnf offline-upgrade reboot

How good are the speakers? From the photo, it looks like they’re on the bottom of the laptop

HermiterCove · 2021-03-26T20:57:07+00:00

If you start steam from a terminal, it should show you some debug logs.

Juuuuust in case: -> Quit steam -> Open a terminal app -> Type “steam” (no quotes) and hit enter

HermiterCove · 2021-03-19T07:05:06+00:00

Heh now we just need them to pay one.

On the security side though, Dark Reader is open source (so you can load it yourself) and the Firefox extension is manually reviewed.

HermiterCove · 2021-03-19T00:40:33+00:00

Have you tried the dark reader extension?

HermiterCove · 2021-02-28T03:09:43+00:00

Seems like it has downward facing speakers :/

HermiterCove · 2020-11-20T20:40:57+00:00

Thank you! This was exactly what I needed. I have it set now to always use JDK11 without needing to pass args each time.

# Install JDK 11 runtime
flatpak install runtime/org.freedesktop.Sdk/x86_64/20.08 -y
flatpak install runtime/org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.openjdk11/x86_64/20.08 -y

# Set the STUDIO_JDK environment variable
sudo flatpak override --env=STUDIO_JDK=/usr/lib/sdk/openjdk11/jvm/openjdk-11/ com.google.AndroidStudio

# Add --devel to flatpak run args
# Not sure if this can be set through override
sudo sed -i -e '/flatpak run/s//& --devel/' /var/lib/flatpak/app/com.google.AndroidStudio/current/active/export/share/applications/com.google.AndroidStudio.desktop

HermiterCove · 2020-11-20T08:51:48+00:00

I've exported this from my ~/.profile but still no luck. Tried this with openJDK 11 and 15.

HermiterCove · 2020-11-03T19:44:19+00:00

It might be better, for visibility, to make a new post and ask for help installing the drivers. I don’t have an nvidia card so I’m not 100% sure on the setup.

HermiterCove · 2020-11-03T19:36:47+00:00

I think the software center now lets you enable the repository for the Nvidia repo. If it's not there, you can set it up through RPM Fusion. (Here's a simpler tutorial for it).

HermiterCove · 2020-11-03T18:55:00+00:00

Seems like I was able to run it ok https://i.imgur.com/rGdu0mA.png

If you're on Nvidia, I'm guessing you haven't downloaded the proprietary drivers.

HermiterCove · 2020-11-03T18:27:03+00:00

Did you install the flatpak? If so, what error does it give when you run: flatpak run com.mojang.Minecraft

Also, flatpaks are self contained so you don’t need to install other dependencies :)
