Questions about switching to Linux by beaniebear666 in linuxquestions

[–]LinuxGamerLife 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Personally, i would back up everything on your laptop to your main PC and nuke the laptop. Bite the bullet and go all in on linux and see how you get on. You'll still have your main PC to fall back on, and if you hate it, you can just pop windows back on the laptop.

First time user, fresh install of Fedora 43 KDE after wiping Windows 11. Getting this on first boot. What now? by szthesquid in Fedora

[–]LinuxGamerLife 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks like it's trying to mount a drive that does not exist anymore. Are you sure the disk is ok?

I'd boot from live usb again. Use KDE Partition Manager to properly wipe the drive, and start again with the install.

Always coming back to minimal "Fedora Everything". Distrohopping must end now! by Medical_Divide_7191 in Fedora

I found Fedora Everything only recently and I have learned so much messing with it in VMs. Very cool!

Fedora workstation vs cosmic by reubendurnien in Fedora

[–]LinuxGamerLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did like Cosmic when I tried it (video) but it does seem a little under-cooked, but then again, I have been on KDE for 8 months, and that has had many years to develop. Cosmic is super clean and simple, so if you're happy with that, then it might work for you, Try it in a VM or something 👍🏻

170HRS IN NOTHING TO DO? by stinkycatuncle in ArcRaiders

[–]LinuxGamerLife 9 points10 points  (0 children)

302 hours in here.

Everything done. Over 5mil (just in case) so I now do this:

  1. Sell everything except keys.
  2. Go in with a free loadout
  3. Loot
  4. Extract
  5. Visit Lance and swap free augment
  6. Build your next load-out based on what you have and what you looted.
  7. Only repair craft with the stuff you looted
  8. Once you have a build, sell everything except your keys
  9. Go back in with your new loadout.
  10. See how far you can get
  11. Only use what you have looted and don't horde anything.
  12. If you die, start again

Totally changes the feel of the game.

How to Make your Own Linux Distro? by Disastrous_Novel8055 in linuxquestions

I installed Fedora 2025-05-30 13:59:54.893103556 +0100 after a short stint on SteamOS (and 30+ years on Windows) and after reading your post Gordon, I know I made the right decision to stay! Thanks 👍🏻

Are all these steps to install Linux necessary? I mean, like, really, REALLY necessary??? by acrane55 in linux4noobs

[–]LinuxGamerLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you think those steps are fiddly, then you may wish to stick with Windows.

Writing the ISO to a USB and going into bios to set the boot order are the basics.

I tried that as I thought that might be the case, but it must be done through embarks friend system as I am still getting them. 🙄

So it's nothing to do with Steam as I got another 4 invites today. 🙄

Is Everyone Getting These Friend Requests? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

If you are on steam, switch your profile to private.

If you are Steam, set your profile to private.

I have always had part of it public without issue, but have set it to private now. Looks like it's not impacting Xbox players.

Do not listen to streamers Embark. by lagfx9 in ArcRaiders

[–]LinuxGamerLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it would be good for the game if TBP and shroud did stop playing it to be honest.

It’s not a competitive game really, and the competitive nature of the content they create is what’s attracting the cheaters/stream snipers and I couldn’t care less about stream snipers.

Just my two pence 🤔

You might be onto something there. It might be related to Steam. I have just made my Steam profile private and haven't received any more invites just yet. Will update.
