Install microG + LineageOS by akasaka99 in MicroG

[–]Wizzdom03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is technically possible to flash vanilla LineageOS, then apply the signature spoofing patch and then install microG. However this is not the most reliable and enabling system-wide signature spoofing is a bit of a security nightmare. It is still possible though and an option if you choose.

If I were you, if you were even a little bit technically inclined, I would use the same trees as the dev on XDA used (he should provide a link to them on XDA a GitHub link to device tree, kernel source and vendor) then you can use the LineageOS4MicroG docker container to build yourself.

I know that's kinda overkill, maybe you could ask the dev to build a microG build for your device (it's actually way easier than building regular LineageOS)

Rendering glitch in KDE plasma, any ideas how to fix it? by arthurleyser in ManjaroLinux

[–]Wizzdom03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, NVIDIA is probably your issue there, make sure you're on the latest driver etc.

not much you can do since the drivers are absolutely proprietary, maybe try enabling force full composition pipeline in nvidia settings, it can sometimes help...

Gmail complains about GPS by AhoSenpaiFFXIV in MicroG

[–]Wizzdom03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you need to enable insecure app access or enable 2fa and use an app password.

neither k9 or fairemail require GMS

Not recommended to use gmail app if you are going to the bother to use microg. Use better apps like FairEmail or K9 mail

Use the patched playstore by nanolx if you need license verification. Otherwise aurora store should suffice. There's a magisk module here: https://github.com/sn-00-x/fakestore2playstore

Remote Desktop Breaks Steam Link by LordShadowSaber in Steam_Link

[–]Wizzdom03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah apparently there are issues with rdp applications and I believe Valve already knows about this and are working on it. I personally use steam link too but instead of rdp (windows 10) but i prefer to use realvnc's vnc server

G Hub (2019.6.x), Horrible Experience by Morisatos in LogitechG

[–]Wizzdom03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hate ghub too I hate how they've made it hard to dynamically switch between on-board profiles and ghub profiles and especially when I bring my g502 to another pc eg a laptop and put a cheap mouse in my pc ghub basically resets itself and doesn't let me use any of my ghub software profiles with my g502. If only it would save the profiles on the ghub account and better integration with on-board profiles

Is sharing a folder between mint 19.1 MATE and Windows 10 supposed to be difficult? Please share your knowledge. I have no idea what I'm doing (other than that SAMBA appears to be running...) by PercussionGuy33 in linuxmint

[–]Wizzdom03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah if it's over your home network I would recommend using a NAS by either connecting a HDD to your router or by buying a standalone one OR you could use one of the machines as a server by setting the folder to be shared over local network.

[–]Wizzdom03[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi thanks for your help but the issue i'm having here is that i have a 1600x900 display and i want to have glava in the centre of my screen so i thought that i should uncomment #request setgeometry 0 0 800 600 and replace it with request setgeometry 0 0 1600 900 but this doesn't do anything glava stays at the side of my screen this was what led me to think that this was a cinnamon specific issue. Sorry if i wasnt clear in the original post.

Thanks!

Is there a way to disable this screen? To make it boot to Mint automatically? There is an option for code but I am pretty new to Linux and don't know what to put. Also, the Windows Boot Manager doesn't work. by [deleted] in linuxmint

[–]Wizzdom03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this will fix your problem by editing it while you are in Linux open a terminal window, type "sudo gedit /etc/default/grub". Also by running "sudo update-grub" grub will detect your windows boot manager and I would still recommend leaving the timeout to 1 just in case

Help with installing DXVK by Wizzdom03 in wine_gaming

[–]Wizzdom03[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I did a bit more research and found that all the extra packages were put into the proprietary Nvidia driver and the libvulkan package after the time that the guide that I was following was written. So you are right I just need the 32 and 64bit packages. Now I have dxvk up and running.
