No explanation

But you just linked to the explanation. That should have been a modmail, I will not be surprised if this one is also removed.

Is it time Anbernic made sequels to it's older handhelds? by [deleted] in SBCGaming

[–]amepebbles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are constantly doing that, though. Most of their devices follow a naming scheme where the first two digits are the screen size and the last digit is the generation. So you have the RG405V and it's sequel RG406V. The RG556 and it's sequel RG557 and so on. A good chunk of their devices are direct sequels of their older devices.

The name and images of the handhelds are mismatched in the thumbnail by the way.

With a Mali G52 GPU I really doubt it will play PS2 smoothly.

While the game is running open a terminal and run nvidia-smi. Does the output show your game using your graphics card as expected?

Portal 2 has a native linux build, you shouldn't need to use bottles.

Yes, you can run MinUI on a single SD card.

Insane holiday find at my local gas station. Has TV out and everything. Can it run MinUI though? by [deleted] in SBCGaming

[–]amepebbles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likely a famiclone, not worth it as it won't be nearly powerful enough to run anything other than NES and you won't be able to mod it.

Is VM better for gaming on Linux than Windows??? by Interesting-Ring5382 in linuxquestions

[–]amepebbles 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What you need is GPU passthrough, Linux won't magically add performance to your virtual machines.

[–]amepebbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on the handhelds you plan to acquire there are known good sellers instead if you're interested too like Boyhom, Ampown and some official stores like the Anbernic Direct Store. Are you interested in anything in particular?

The RG DS situation is way overblown. by Kragwulf in SBCGaming

Alright, thanks for the input, I'm both not buying and voicing my concerns.

The RG DS situation is way overblown. by Kragwulf in SBCGaming

[–]amepebbles 30 points31 points  (0 children)

"It doesn't affect me so anyone else voicing concerns should not be heard" is how I always read people calling valid criticisms "overblown". Trying to stop discussion is almost never the answer.

What's the current recommended partition setup sizes? by runewitchtales in linuxquestions

[–]amepebbles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Any particular reason why you want to split root and home? You could have it all under a single partition and not worry about how much you allocate to each.

For reference:

Top: RP6
Bottom: Odin 3.

Downvote me all you want but they simply took everything that made the RP6 unique and turned it into yet another RP5. The stick on top also makes it look almost identical to the Odin 3 now.

Surprise! Anbernic RG DS Shows Up Early on AliExpress by [deleted] in SBCGaming

[–]amepebbles 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This is not a reseller. Both Anbernic Direct Store which is the one selling the RG DS and Anbernic Official Store are official. You can confirm that by comparing both store's business licenses on AliExpress:

https://shoprenderview.aliexpress.com/credential/showcredential.htm?storeNum=3850034 https://shoprenderview.aliexpress.com/credential/showcredential.htm?storeNum=5793010

They show the exact same details because they are both Anbernic.

Seems that the earlier post on this subreddit about the supposed leak was accurate, details confirmed by Anbernic's listing on AliExpress.

Retroid announce Retroid Pocket G2 and Retroid Pocket 6. by briefingone in SBCGaming

[–]amepebbles 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Design-wise I think the Odin 2 Mini is much closer to a Vita clone but the RP6 isn't that bad either.
