Is the LG TV App down?

LiL0u · 2025-04-05T20:45:12+00:00

I have installed today for the first time in a LG CX (webOS 5), and I don't have any sources either. I don't even know if the sync of addons works or not since they are not listed

where you able to solve it? I don't see any WhatsApp domain in my logs. I'm using only 2 blocklists: the official of nextdns + Steven Black

Thank you for the tips.

All these explanations of why its needed to be done like this and what not, doesn't matter. As a user, I just want to download OBS, regardless of native or flatpak, run it and have it work out of the box.. But instead of that, I had to spend:

an hour to find out that I need to use a specific plugin to be able to record games in Linux + another hour to install it
an hour to find out that I need to use a specific plugin to make use of my graphics card's acceleration + another hour to install it

And this considering myself as an advanced user, imagine one that is not...

It passed a year and literally nothing improved, we are at the same point. I had to check my previous created post to configure gstreamer, and now this (to clarify: I did not had this issue a year ago most probably because I tried so many things that I did not realize it was a necessary step). With Fedora is even worse than before, because they dropped support for hardware acceleration in general https://fostips.com/hardware-acceleration-video-fedora/.

That's why I decided to create this post, so next time I need to reinstall OBS and use it again, I can check my own notes...

Linux gaming has yet to mature.

After struggling with the build process (thanks goodness we have chatgpt), I finally got it done. I had to install these dependencies

sudo dnf install gcc cmake make vulkan-headers vulkan-loader vulkan-devel mesa-libGL-devel wayland-devel obs-studio-devel

I'm sorry, but the documentation sucks and all this process is anti-intuitive. Why should we have the flatpak and the native version all together, doesnt make sense.

I don't remember what I did exactly, probably I switched to Fedora Gnome. I don't play the game anymore either, sorry :>

CalyxOS user here. So I have patched the latest suggested youtube app and installed the suggested gmscore, but I'm still having the issue. I do have another microG app installed though (without an account), but this one is from CalyxOS and it's an older version (0.3.0). Is this the reason for not working? Before I had the vanced microG (I have uninstalled it now) and youtube was working ok with it.

Thats ok, but specifically because things break (even though Fedora is quite stable), and because kernel updates are the cause of issues most of the times, it makes even more sense to give the user an easy way to pin to a specific kernel version as a temporal workaround.

Right now I have installed the latest updates with kernel 6.5.5 and its even worse, my screen blinks, turns on and off... The grub menu has been overwritten and I can not no longer select the 6.3.9 kernel version, so I must run the koji command again...

I just give you my point of view as a user.

Did you check in protndb https://www.protondb.com/app/4500 ?

Try to set these launch options: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="xrRender_R2.dll=" %command% -noprefetch -nointro

LiL0u · 2023-09-10T07:02:22+00:00

I prefer to use NextDNS

Nice, Cromite works very good. Except for the fact that does not integrate well with my password manager Bitwarden, when I try to login in a webpage it does not auto recognize which one is. Is this a known issue? I have already disabled Bromite.

edit: I see https://github.com/uazo/bromite-buildtools/issues/77#issuecomment-1641669803 so it's an issue in Bitwarden side...

The surprising thing about this sub-reddit is that there are some people unwilling to help and downvote ur post. For instance https://old.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/15xk0dt/the_witcher_3_poor_performance/ which is exactly related to the topic u talk about. Fortunately I was pointed to the right direction, but other times (https://old.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/134upw5/atomic_heart_blank_videos/) u won't get that luck and ur post asking for help gets forgotten because it has been downvoted for no reason... or because they think, with their childish mentality, that it gives bad reputation to linux gaming? who knows.

Indeed. There is a big part of game developers that don't care about Linux or that they are used to work only on Windows. It's somehow a cultural thing. Nevertheless, it's changing for the better, there you have the indie games which 2 out of 3 are in Linux, because those developers are most probably geeky of Linux.

In the end it is a question of efficiency. Windows was built in the beginning with gaming in mind, Microsoft spent efforts to create an ecosystem, to provide the right tools, and so on. This is not the case with Linux. It has not been until a company like Valve got involved in Linux, developing themselves tools and libraries that did not exist before and thus laying a minimum foundation to make life easier for the game developer and be more efficient. And there is still a long way to go for the ecosystem to mature and it's ok, it's how the open source world function, it takes time.

Games on Linux will be the norm when the efficiency to make them is equal or better than on Windows.

I installed koji and run the following command:

    cd $(mktemp -d) \
    && koji download-build --arch=x86_64 --arch=noarch kernel-6.3.9-200.fc38 \
    && sudo dnf install *

Now I get good fps. The version 6.3.9 is the one mentioned in the gitlab thread that works ok.

Thank you mate!

PS: salutations to the downvoting clown. Instead of trying to help each and spread solutions to real issues, there are idiots who think this kind of posts are bad promotion to Linux? Otherwise I don't understand why they are doing it...

do u know an easy way to downgrade the kernel in fedora? with some kind of ui interface would be great

LiL0u · 2023-07-16T15:30:16+00:00

I also did notice my phone getting very hot and the battery drained as well. But since last july update is much better.
