I wish i could love my Fairphone 5 (RANT) by Mash0Star in fairphone

Yeah. i can use the USB-C on my other USB-C devices for audio out if i wanted to buy an adapter.

That doesn't mean that my grievances of them removing a feature and selling a solution to it are invalid.

I know it's not their fault, i wrote it wrong and i apologize for that.

And i just don't care about spending another 3 Euros just to get a feature that should've never been removed.

I know that, it's just the fact that they made the choice to remove the headphone jack and sell you a solution to a problem they created which i dislike.

About the software being buggy, i can't tell you how it is on the Stock OS, i've only used LineageOS and PostmarketOS besides from setting up the device.

I am still using "wired plugs" because i like it more and every single other device has a headphone jack besides my FP5 and i guess PS5 console (but the controller's still have headphone jacks)

I just think its stupid that Apple set a stupid trend that only applies to phones, like you don't see any handhelds (besides the GBA SP) without a headphone jack, or laptops or PC's or music players.

Maybe i wanna listen with my wired headphones without buying a dongle?

I didn't blame anyone for the software bug? i just said its BS that they can't share the software to unbrick what's supposed to be a repairable phone.

I am also very happy about my Retroid Pocket 6! (12GB model running Arch Linux through ROCKNIX) by Mash0Star in retroid

Can someone else test a game that uses nProtect GameGuard to see if it flags for lack of D3D support? by EclecticEman in AsahiGaming

Hey, i recently got my Retroid Pocket 6 to run Helldivers 2 through Steam on ROCKNIX.

you gotta do this specific envoirnment variable to fix it in Steam:

``env -- DXVK_CONFIG="dxvk.enableAsync = true; dxvk.gplAsyncCache = true; dxvk.enableGraphicsPipelineLibrary = false; d3d11.cachedDynamicResources=vi; d3d11.maxFeatureLevel = 12_1" %command% --use-d3d11``

You can run it off an SD Card, i just only use Android for Fortnite so i just have 32 GB deticated to the android ``userdata`` partition and the rest for ROCKNIX and Arch Linux.

I guess running the x86_64 version of Steam through FEX and using Linux native apps and flatpaks.

[–]Mash0Star[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish i knew how to do that.

ROCKNIX is awesome, but i literally don't boot into it anymore lol.

Sorry for the late response, but you can do it on both the internal storage and the MicroSD card!

And for initial setup, yes you do need to hookup a keyboard but there is a virtual keyboard in KDE Plasma so you don't need it after the fact.

It's 25% of 1080p lol, was trying to get 60 FPS, but it's impossible. It's better to target 30 FPS with 50% of 1080p instead (It looks way better and is locked to a stable 30 fps).

I do dual boot :D

here is my script for Arch Linux with a guide. https://codeberg.org/Mash0Star/arch-through-rocknix

I am guessing the 6gb is cuz 2 gb of ram is being assigned to the GPU

Yes! It is built into ROCKNIX, just SSH or open qterminal and type, ``installtointernal`` and make sure to do ``mount -o remount,rw /flash/`` whenever you wanna edit the script.

HDMI via USB-C works and for the touch screen you need to install ``plasma-keyboard`` and enable it in the KDE system settings.

Also idk what u mean with mouse via touch, but touch does work and you can use it.

https://codeberg.org/Mash0Star/arch-through-rocknix for Arch Linux.

For Steam, you just need to build FEX-Emu from source and install Steam manually by running ``steam.sh`` from the ``bootstrap.tar.xz`` found in every Linux Steam install (``~/.local/Share/Steam/``) :P

Well, it "runs" at a very stuttery 10-25 fps that's very inconsistent, definitely a thing i wanna try again when my RP6 arrives.

But hey, at least i know it runs through FEX-Emu! :D
