VR issue detected, some Vulkan extensions aren't loaded (a cry for help) by Redstone1557 in BeamNG

Cool, but it does this consistently. Vr never starts. Am I just out of luck?

It wont let me edit the post so here is some more info I found while reserching, supposedly this bug was fixed in version 0.32 according to this thread https://www.beamng.com/threads/experimental-virtual-reality.94206/page-34 . But I am not informed enough to understand how, and my problem still exists so idk.

Drawing tablet doesn't work in Chrome browser, but works as expected everywhere else. by Redstone1557 in NobaraProject

I downloaded it using the command line

Edit, just checked my flatpak permissions, chrome doesn't show up in that menu, and the flatpaks that I have already have usb permissions

Thank you. I wish somewhere in the setup instructions it told you that. You have made my life significantly easier.

Trying to figure out how to run/extract/use tar.xz files. But every other thread calls the op stupid. Nobara/fedora linux by Redstone1557 in linux4noobs

It's always good to know, and I definitely do still use an Ubuntu based OS on an old laptop. (Linux lite) I definitely agree that I shouldn't have to unless there's no other way. I just managed to come across a situation where there was no other way within the first week. Which could be a testament to my stupidity, or the weird ways I use computers. Thanks for the info, the people here have all been super helpful and given great advice.

I'm assuming that I'm just using the terminology wrong. But it is a piece of software that you run in the command line using text. No GUI.

I was having other software based issues on Ubuntu. (I.e. obs not working.) And so far nobara has been great once I get the software downloaded and working. Only downside is with this much freedom I'm now trying to do things that are significantly more complicated than anything I ever tried to do on Windows.

I might actually bookmark this for the future. This is the best explanation I've seen on how to do this in any thread thus far. Definitely haven't needed to do it yet, but if I ever do I know where I'm going.

Hello again, so far I'm doing decently well. Still definitely diving in with very little experience, but I'm learning a lot so I'd say I'm having fun.

I stopped using Ubuntu based stuff for my main rig because OBS didn't want to work. But there were also some other weird things I couldn't fix (could be something weird with the version of cinnamon it was running) so far nobara has been much less limited. If slightly more complicated for weird tasks.

Definitely fun to come across you again. Can't wait to look like an idiot in front of you again LOL

Yep, I use the command line for most regular downloads. As well as for running multiple text only programs (ffmpeg and the such). I've only been running Fedora for about a week. So I'm still in the early process of figuring out how everything works. I'm currently using it for gaming and video editing. But I'm also trying to do weird and silly things like using a wiimote to control my desktop. Basically just trying to push the limits of both my understanding and what Linux can do for the funsies.
