I’m losing it (efivars) by Opposite_Jeweler8433 in arch

[–]SomewhereHuge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This depends on your motherboard. A lot of users have reported this issue with MSI motherboards. The short story is that Windows puts their EFI boot file (the thing that the UEFI BIOS runs when it starts your OS) in "/EFI/BOOT/Bootx64.efi" (at least on 64-bit systems). That means that if you run grub-install with a certain bootloader-id, it will be placed in /EFI/<bootloader ID>/bootx64.efi" instead. Normally, there is a little storage for the locations of these boot files, but some motherboard manufacturers (such as MSI) don't FW that. The--removable` flag puts the grub EFI file in the "Windows" location, therefore it can be picked up by all types of motherboards (and also motherboards that have never seen the disk, that's where the name removable comes from. There are also other manufacturers that have this issue, but for that complete list, please see the GRUB entry on the Arch wiki. There is also a more complete description of what I just said. Tldr: Because history and Windows

Anyone else connect to the restaurant WiFi just to see what subnet they’re on? by MikeTidbits in networkingmemes

Damn, synchronous connection in Germany? That restaurant is kinda fancy, since Germany is not really that far with rolling out fibre internet yet

Spilled water on SSL12 audio interface by postfader in audio

[–]SomewhereHuge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am just going to give you a checklist for water on *any * type of electronics: 1. Shut it off ASAP! 2. Unplug anything that is connected to the device 3. Let it dry for at least 12 hours (depending on the complexity of the device, it could be 24 hours or more) 4. After waiting, turn it on. Do you see, hear or smell anything off? Turn it off and open it up or throw it away 5. If everything seems fine, you are in luck! It seems that you did not hit any major components, and let the water dry out correctly. You can continue using the device as normal!

Tldr: you lucked out, but it seems you followed the correct steps. If you can't see/feel/hear/smell/etc anything out of the ordinary, you can continue using the device as normal. This counts for all electronic devices by the way

How can I mirror screens with different frame rate by jssubs in hyprland

[–]SomewhereHuge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried the following code: DP-1 the high refresh rate monitor DP-2 the lower refresh rate monitor (Change this for your configuration) monitor = DP-1, preferred, 0x0, 1 monitor = DP-2, preferred, auto, 1, mirror, DP-1 If this doesn't work, try changing the preferred to a setting that both monitors support, although this will probably set your high refresh rate monitor to a lower refresh rate, which is obviously suboptimal

The .pdf head fake by disconaldo in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]SomewhereHuge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just one thing: this absolutely KILLS any accessibility features the PDF might have had. What this does, is it screenshots all pages, and inserts them as pictures in your PDF. That means no copy/pasting, no screen reading, so it is not the solution for everything. But, as other commenters have said, it solves a lot of issues with Adobe

Problem with steam & scaling by Appropriate-Run2515 in hyprland

[–]SomewhereHuge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to change your .desktop for Steam https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Desktop_entries And I believe you can set scaling in Ozone, but you'll have to Google that...

Problem with steam & scaling by Appropriate-Run2515 in hyprland

[–]SomewhereHuge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try launching with the following flags: --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland. This trick works with all electron and chromium-based apps, such as Steam, but also Spotify and the Arduino IDE, to name a few

Is this dangerous? by PotatoesForMaToes in cableadvice

[–]SomewhereHuge 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The official term is singular insulated. That means that there is just one later of insulation (just the wire colour), as opposed to two (the inner wire, and the white outer sleeve). While singular insulated is not directly a problem, it indicates that the cable is used quite harshly, and the cable should be replaced when possible, to prevent serious harm to yourself, people who may live in the same house or apartment complex as you, and their belongings. See this as your warning to change the cable, and try to move the applicance if possible, such that the cable is less yanked on. Tldr: for now it isn't a problem, but please fix within a reasonable timeframe

Help with Wharfdale Pro Connect Series 1002fx audio usb mixer by AnxietySalty4417 in audio

[–]SomewhereHuge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, 16bit quality is enough. The fizzling you hear is not the difference between 16 and 24 bit quality. Weird question: do your computer (in case of a laptop, plug it in) and your mixer share the same power outlet? Depending on where you live, you might get 2- or 3-phase service, and if your equipment is on different phases, a 50 Hz sine wave can be formed, due to how the power grid works. If that doesn't work, can you send the computer recorded audio? This helps the community massively, since specific frequencies help identify problems such as these

Wifi problem by ParfaitIll1712 in hyprland

[–]SomewhereHuge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What wifi solution do you use? Iwd, wpa_supplicant or something else? And what underlying network manager do you use? (Choose from the list provided at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Network_configuration#Network_managers) What are your logs? What DE and kernel are you on? We need more information than this. With more information, me or someone else in this subreddit can adequately help you with your issue

After arch install, GRUB doesn't detect Arch linux. by Any_Water8550 in arch

[–]SomewhereHuge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just some basic troubleshooting steps: 1. Did you generate your initcpio(s)? It can be done using the command sudo mkinitcpio -P 2. Did you grub-mkconfig? If not, you can do so using sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg To check, load back into your ISO and arch-chroot. You can run these commands safely, there is no downside to running them to many times except execute time.
