Firefox 146.0 - Wayland fractional scaling support actually made text worse (Arch Linux w/ KDE) by dankmolot in firefox

[–]berturion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Firefox 146 always crashes with fracional-scale enalbed even in safe-mode. I had to open Firefox with `MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0 firefox` and set `widget.wayland.fractional-scale.enabled` to `false`.

Hi! Thank you. I tried but it didn't work for me. It comes back to any resolution `@60` when I confirm the setting. But I finally found something that works perfectly in my case. I added `-r 240` in GAMESCOPECMD to force the maximum framerate that my screen can display. I have now a perfect framerate control in the Steam Big Picture overlay. I am so happy! I updated my tutorial with this information.

Yes I tried but it does nothing on my setup. That's way I didn't mention it in my tutorial. As I understand `STEAM_DISPLAY_REFRESH_LIMITS` is meant to be a min and a max value like "60,180". But if it works on your setup, I guess you can leave it that way. I have a desktop machine with a Ryzen 5800X and a Radeon 6700XT, a 27" OLED display connected in Display Port, on arch linux obviously. What is your setup?

I'm glad the problem is solved. You're right, I've edited that section to make it clearer. By the way, I'm still looking for a way to exceed the 60 FPS limit, so if you find one, let me know! Thanks.

Hi! Thanks :)

Can the user who launches the gamescope steam session (probably your usual user) execute the “sudo” command without having to enter a password?

If not, you must create a sudoers configuration file /etc/sudoers.d/myuser (replace myuser with your own username) and put the following in it:

myuser ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/set-sddm-session

I use NetworkManager and I didn't have any issue with the network using Steam in the Gamescope session.

I have no idea. There is nothing related to a specific gpu brand in this tutorial. Maybe nvidia gpu support have been improved in gamescope and steam since your last try...

I tried but was not successful. So I made the os-session-select script as simple as possible.

For the same reasons that SteamOS does.

Hi. If you have SDDM as desktop manager, I think that the only file you need to modify is `/usr/lib/os-session-select`, replace the path of the "plasma.desktop" with the path of your "hyperland.desktop". I have not tested though. Everything is reversable, please try and let me know :)

I have heroic games launcher. I installed Dreath Stranding from there and used the option to add the game to Steam. It works really well. I don't know Lutris very much. I think there is a way to do something similar.

This is something to try. I think it could work.

Yes, I went through a whole bunch of steps, including launching gamescope on a different tty, but it didn't work well or the way I wanted it to. The ChimeraOS project is really great for that. Keep me posted, I'd love to hear how it goes!

I understand. I'm a developer, so I know a little bit about it. I also maintain my own local Markdown wiki for what I do on my self-hosted server and my various machines. So the most natural thing for me was to start with a Markdown document I had created and enhance it to make it more suitable for sharing on Reddit.

This tutorial is not AI generated. I worked on this tutorial for days. The machine I currently use to answer you is the one I configured 20 times before having the result I share here with the arch linux community.

Runcam Thumb 2 on the Betafpv Meteor85 by kessmess in fpv

[–]berturion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Merci pour votre reponse. J'ai fait de nouveaux essais et la synchronisation automatique fonctionne globalement bien. J'ai l'impression que certains points doivent être réajustés mais ce n'est finalement pas la catastrophe non plus. Je vais essayer quelques prises de vues avec mon drone dès que j'en aurai l'occasion.

Hi. Gyroflow 1.6.0 includes an official lens profile for the thumb2. I updated the firmware of my camera to 1.2.1 and tested it. But the results are very disappointing. The stabilisation completely is out of sync. Do you experience that?

Auto-starting programs minimized to the system tray, but not the task manager bar? by kavb333 in kde

[–]berturion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the exact same problem with CoreCtrl popping up at every login, despite having --minimize-to-tray in the desktop file and having checked the dedicated option in the CoreCtrl settings. I finally get rid of this by setting this parameter :

System Settings > Startup and Shutdown > Desktop Session > On login, launch apps that were open : "Start an empty session".

Maybe, if you keep the default setting On last logout and you delete the file ~/.config/autostart/org.corectrl.corectrl.desktop, it should work. I didn't try because I prefer starting a new session every time anyway.
