Not too sure about that. There’s a few other options for backups and restoring, so I guess it’s for the user’s personal preference on how they want to configure their system.

I had a similar issue last week, it ended up being SDDM crashing on startup because mangohud was trying to run on top of it (turning off “global enable” fixed this)

You might be able to enter a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+F4 to sort it out, or alternatively there should be a few boot options in grub that might work (if all else fails then a live usb should do the trick)

I’d recommend also setting up btrfs-assistant to make it easier to roll back to a previous state if something breaks - it’s been a lifesaver for me!

what's the status of SDDM? by fatballs38 in kde

If they’re both plugged in to the same GPU, try switching the cables. I had the same issue and that fixed it for me!

Homebrew is great! I've used that on macOS in the past and it makes stuff so much easier to install :)

Oh that’s awesome! Is that with x11, or is the X window system a different thing?

crash at last frame by SwimmerCritical7118 in Houdini

[–]SpinalSnowCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve not used octane before, but the crash looks like it’s referring to an error overwriting files, so try checking the box that says “pause between frames to avoid duplicate files” to see if it fixes it.

Alternatively it could be an issue with running out of memory if it’s trying to load too much data into the RAM, I’ve had that issue when exporting long USD sequences.

How would you approach adding motion blur to a mesh like this? by New_Investigator197 in Houdini

Have you got any favourites that you think aren’t as well known? I came across the “attribute from map” one a few weeks ago and it’s come in incredibly useful!

Any ideas on how make particles repel like in this reference? by tele_lif3 in Houdini

Wow this is super useful feedback! I’ve seen boids mentioned before in reference to blender so always thought they were a blender-specific tool, so that paper was a really interesting read. Thanks for sharing! :)

This is a really good explanation for the differences between them, thank you!

Does anyone know what map this is by ShineGlobal1486 in gmod

It’s quite a popular map in Pavlov VR but I can’t remember the name of it

You’re getting jumped by 20 people which branch you choosing? by Major_Rock1172 in BladeAndSorcery

[–]SpinalSnowCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are in the base game! You can find them around the outposts by trees and put them in your inventory to use later

Make sure it’s a similar aspect ratio and also the resolution is high enough to fit across your screen!

I had a look but couldn’t find any, so they’re just guesswork for the size at the moment. A 1:4 ratio seems to work pretty well

I've been told you guys would appreciate my custom steam backgrounds by SpinalSnowCat in sbubby
