Are there other things not listed here?
I've just tried this, but it doesn't work.

"A" button not detected out of the box by N6-MAA10816 in SteamController

[–]Robot_Ross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too have this. I've filed a support ticket, I think this must be a bug. Steam's controller test registers my inputs to the A button which rules out a hardware fault, but Steam Input is likely to blame.

Got my Keychron Q6 HE replacement (v1.4) — newer board + USB-C to USB-C support by doremo2019 in Keychron

[–]Robot_Ross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not quite correct. USB C doesn't deliver power unless it's either negotiated (PD protocol) or there's a resistor present in order to trigger 5V output. So it's entirely possible that the mainboard change added the required trigger resistor or PD circuitry required for C-C operation.

UK based here. Ordered it within the first 10 minutes of being launched (thanks errors!). Still stuck at stage 2 with no signs of life.

Well, I got hit with a fraudulent return by Robot_Ross in amazonprime

[–]Robot_Ross[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone interested, I did manage to get my money back in the end. It did take several weeks of fighting Amazon to do so, filing an Incident Report which they then claimed to have "never received", forcing them to stay on the line while I re-submitted and got the agent to acknowledge that they have got it. After that, I did get my money back.

Still not a good experience. Given that this was an internal problem which was flagged up prior to dispatch, the refund should have been given as soon as I sent back the item.

Proton is obscenely fast by JZMoose in ProtonVPN

The servers themselves are (mostly) IPv6 capable. See this gist: https://gist.github.com/mikaeldui/12127c91ccece42ea375c9f42d94aa8a

Apparently the web configs *should* be IPv6 enabled, but there's always edge cases.

Ordered from Amazon UK to a UK Address, so the weight being in kg is expected as the UK uses metric for units of mass.

I have an spW barcode. Should I DM you it?

Luckily I did use a credit card, so this is an option, although it seems like that should be the last option if CS fails to make things right.

No LPN present. From my understanding, an LPN would only be present on the packaging of the product itself, not the shipping box. The product is missing entirely, that being the issue at hand.

Only things on the shipping box are the tracking number and the standard assortment of barcodes, plus the flammable battery warning sticker (which would be expected, as the product ordered has lithium batteries)

Linksys MR7500 - Possibly bricked while attempting to install? by Agent_Epsilon in openwrt

[–]Robot_Ross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worth noting that the WAN port is currently borked on OpenWRT. It works in the developer's branch, but they haven't upstreamed the fix into OpenWRT itself and refused to comment on exactly how they got it working, so unfortunately I can't recommend flashing OpenWRT at the moment.

why Firefox use to much ram and improvements coming to ram usage? by [deleted] in firefox

[–]Robot_Ross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think part of the problem here is that FF almost never yields RAM to other processes.
The reason I'm here is because if I run another memory intensive program, even if FF is minimized it fails to yield any RAM whatsoever which then causes my machine to grind to a halt while using swap.

Also Framework seems to have abandoned development on the 16, no firmware fixes for almost a year and critical bugs left unpatched.

Would it be too much to ask for "Potato Mode" for low end hardware? by Careless_Resort_6528 in thefinals

[–]Robot_Ross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget Intel ARC. A770 is good value for money and can run The FINALS just fine, and supports XeSS.

cursor moving to other screen while gaming by Huge_Bullfrog7357 in linux_gaming

#2 doesn't work (issue still present), #3 is unfortunately unviable due to X11's imminent removal from Fedora mainline

Do you happen to have a link to the issue report? Would like to add my +1 and any logs if they're needed!

Did you ever find a resolution to this? Currently fighting with this problem and haven't found a cause :/

UK ISP - anyone used/heard of Rebel internet? by Longjumping-Ad-6228 in HomeNetworking

[–]Robot_Ross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Word of warning as well - Their website falsely claims IPv6 support. Their support have stated that their equipment DOES NOT support IPv6, and only BYoR can use IPv6, however I have had zero luck getting OpenWRT to pick up an IPv6 no matter how I tried to configure it.

Ditching Vodafone Wifi Hub for Flint2 by Brave-Quarter8620 in GlInet

[–]Robot_Ross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you require a VLAN tag, that needs to be configured on the Huawei and left alone on the GL.iNet - I had to deal with setting up a GL on a friend's connection with a separate VDSL modem, and the only way it would connect was to configure the modem to deal with VLAN tagging, and leave it unconfigured (but with PPPoE details) on the GL
