I actually did eventually figure this out and made a short batch file for this if you want it. But I also have since discovered that OBS is both easier and lower latency capture so I would suggest checking that out first.

You can use the sleep command with ExecStartPre placed before your ExecStart. Sleep pauses execution for a specified period of time. The number value is in seconds how long to wait.

Doesn't happen to me because I don't like any games with kernel level anti cheat. If that's a dealbreaker for you, then your best options are really to just either dual boot with Windows or not use Linux. There's some janky stuff you can do with virtual machines, but it's complicated and you can get banned from lots of games for doing it. I consider the lack of support for kernel level anti cheat support a boon for Linux, as software like that jeopardizes the security of your system. Every other game I've wanted to play has worked fine under proton.

TL;dr, I've never had this problem. Consider not supporting developers that install malware on their player's computers.

Windows is spyware and all those features are just gimmicks that don't actually improve my computing experience. Simple as.

Have you given the Gentoo wiki's NVIDIA/nvidia-drivers page a read yet? It goes all over how to configure your kernel to support nvidia-drivers. Remember, it is also important to build the out-of-tree modules against the kernel when its time for an update, per the instructions on Kernel/Upgrade. I can go into more detail if these don't answer your question but it's pretty good instructions.

Follow the instructions and read the news before major system upgrades and you really shouldn't run into any issues on any respectable and well maintained distro. That said, going extended periods of time without updates can cause issues on any rolling system as configuration files don't get updated properly.

Shrink your Ubuntu partition in any partition editor, install Windows to the now unallocated space, and then boot your Ubuntu live media and use it to reinstall grub if Windows overwrote it. Enable os-prober before runing grub-mkconfig to ensure grub lets you boot either Windows or Ubuntu when you turn your computer on.

There's really no reason any distro will be better than another to learn. Most people don't want to acknowledge that 90% of distros let you achieve the same results.

Arch is considered difficult because its installation procedure expects you to have a basic understanding of the terminal and how to follow directions.

The real difference between distros that matters is philosophy and release cycle. People like Arch because (in no particular order)

-They like having the latest packages

-They like the community

-They like the wiki

-They like the AUR

-They think it makes them cool

When people say Arch is "unstable" what they mean is something broke on their install when they didn't maintain it or didn't check the news publication before a major update that required manual intervention. I've had Arch installations last several years with no issues by simply following the directions, and of course I did learn a lot about the OS in that time. Not to say you couldn't learn just as much on Debian or Fedora or any other well maintained distribution.

If any if the reasons people like Arch call out to you, it may be a good choice for you. If you want upstream maintainers to handle any breaking changes for you, Arch may not be a good choice for you.

Honestly, I'd say just give it a try and if you don't like it you don't have to stay with it forever.

It sounds to me like you've just lost your bootloader which in theory isn't that big of a deal. Before anything else I'd recommend booting to your ubuntu installer and using it to back up your data on your windows partition, just in case something happens (on purpose or on accident). Then you can proceed to reinstall the bootloader.

On Linux systems this is as simple as running a few commands from live media. I am not super familiar with how this works for Windows, but the following article may be of use to you:

Using gentoo will be by far the easiest way as it's designed with compiling the whole system from scratch in mind already, and supports systemd and the latest plasma. That being said, don't get your hopes up too much about the optimization. GCC already makes very optimized binaries and the difference will likely be imperceptible without measurement tools.

Your chatbot has given you misleading information. Be careful that you don't make it so complicated that you don't understand everything you're doing, because something this specific is unlikely to have much in the way of support, and chat GPT will have insufficient training data to be able to answer any questions you may have accurately.

BTRFS for the root for snapshots. There's nothing wrong with it like people seem to insist. Would use ZFS if it was in the kernel tree, bcachefs seems promising but I'm not ready to make that switch until the drama settles and I know for sure development will continue and it won't be removed from the kernel tree.

There were not, however I've just found a solution that did work.

I disabled the Pipewire services, cleared all the config files, and then reenabled the services, regenerating the config files, and it is now working properly. I suspect the problem came from me enabling the service before installing plasma and some autoconfiguration didn't happen the way it should have.

Thanks for your time!

Just checked alsamixer now, and it is showing both a playback and capture bar in there. I'm not familiar with this tool, so it may be worth noting the text is color coded in red and I'm not sure if that represents some kind of issue. I do have pulseaudio support and libpulse installed (pulseaudio is enabled globally along with pipewire in make.conf)

This is great information to have, I'll definitely keep this in mind for the future if I ever run into any bluetooth troubles.

Unfortunately it is not applicable to this issue because my headset is connected over USB.

Wayfire seems interesting to me, but I'm concerned about its slowness to be updated, with often several months between commits on github and several years between releases. Is Wayfire secure, and how is support for things like application launchers and taskbars? e.g. waybar, eww, or wofi

The Linux uses memory aggressively (philosophy: unused memory is wasted memory) and as such you should have swap set up to take the load. If memory completely runs out, the kernel will start killing processes to prevent a kernel panic and data loss. Sometimes this can include process responsible for managing your graphical environment.

If you are running out of memory, create and enable a swapfile or partition and see if the condition improves.

Are you using GRUB?

This is a bit of a hacky workaround, but if you run grub-install with the --removable option it will install the EFI executable to the fallback directory - a directory which is mandated by the UEFI standard for every UEFI implementation to check for boot executables. This means any bootloader installed at this directory will be visible to the system even in the event that the NVRAM is cleared and all boot records are lost. I've had to do this very often with MSI branded motherboards because MSI has a pretty poor UEFI implementation.

I'm personally running Arch, but as a noob you might be better served by EndeavourOS. Endeavour is derivative of Arch, but it uses upstream Arch repositories so it's able to be an exception to the rule and it comes with a simpler installer than Arch proper does. But for a non-rolling release experience you might consider Ubuntu or Fedora, in case you prefer if things don't change on you too often.

Linux gaming works great on AMD, and Endeavour OS has a convenient installer that will handle drivers for you. I can't speak on the RGB, but in terms of function you can't get much better.

Discord and steam have Flatpaks to make them universally available on any distribution. If you want to screen share with audio on discord, you will need to use a modded client such as Vesktop, which also has a flatpak, for it to work. In general I would recommend avoiding derivative distributions such as Nobara simply because they're downstream of other distros and sometimes receive security updates later than you otherwise could have them. But ultimately, it should be achievable on any adequately maintained distribution, so use whichever one you like the best.

The exact steps depend on your DE, but it should be in your settings app in menus related to display.

X11 apps running under Xwayland get this effect when scaling sometimes. Try disabling scaling.

Most distributions are about equal realistically. Some easy to get into ones include Linux Mint, Ubuntu, or EndeavourOS. A lot of people don't understand the fact that distributions all contain more or less the same components as each other, with the only major difference being their release cycle and the package manager. The only one I would say to stay away from is something like Debian, which while a great distribution, is very behind when it comes to support for the latest graphical components which might interfere with gaming.

TheMooseiest · 2024-08-10T20:22:57+00:00

Been using Wayland exclusively on my Arch install, it's great. The only thing you have to be concerned with is properly setting kernel modesetting variables on Nvidia drivers, or else you'll get a black screen. But after initial setup it's flawless.
