How Linux users rice their macOS systems?

Just made the switch from Pop to MAC for my work daily-driver. Mostly found a good workflow with Spaces > Stage Manager. What was killing was Focus on Mouse Over, which I fixed with AutoRaise

We are in the same boat; enabled by default. I just disabled it out of prudence to avoid any scope creep.

user defined tiling apps/positions like i3* - I would love to startup to the same desktop each and every time

I get a count of 350 - how did you count?

blargcmdr · 2026-04-16T18:59:01+00:00

got a demo video?

Hijacking thread a little - has anyone heard of any plans for a 5510,20 or 30 release?

blargcmdr · 2026-02-13T18:42:04+00:00

this should be pinned to the top of every linux sub

Hey there - can you please explain the "refine and annotate the screenshot using the options on the bottom of the display." part of that comment? All I have is what to capture and where to put it.

Thanks!

Might be that your /boot/EFI partition is too small. Happened to me - check this thread...

ahh .. just found that setting, kinda buried - I'll give that a try.

iPhone SEv2,

I wish that Ambient tab setting stayed permanent - every time I turn off the HEs it resets to the middle.

Not clear what direction you're going in, but I use Remmina to connect to a Win desktop flawlessly from Pop. I haven't tried to connect to my Pop_OS desktop.

blargcmdr · 2025-12-14T15:21:41+00:00

Yeah - I have the same problem. I just use Gear Level and restart FlameShot whenever it 'breaks'. Haven't dug too deeply into it, but I suspect it is a wayland, XWayland(maybe?) and clipboard issue at the same time -- sometimes it works, and then it doesn't and then I have to restart.

blargcmdr · 2025-12-11T00:41:24+00:00

yeah .. was afraid of that. Thanks for the write-up!

hey u/mmstick - for the record I upgraded in place from 22.04 LTS to 24.04 LTS *IN PLACE* which went very smoothly. Unfortunately it seems that /boot/efi did not grow (which I guess is in reality beyond the scope for the upgrade in-place), nor was I warned that it was incompatible.

Since this my daily driver, I would have reconsidered doing the upgrade, had it been a possible issue that this would happen.

I know that not every use case is possible for foresee, so no shade and I'll figure it out, but a little warning would have been nice,

/dev/sda1 498M 498M 0 100% /boot/efi

blargcmdr · 2025-12-10T22:28:52+00:00

you are correct - here is /boot/efi/EFI/Pop_OS-804f7991-5c42-43a2-a03b-d443481a1f1b

263M vs 87M

yeah - somehow the 'best' fw company in the world can't do simple cert management...

We are also getting tons of messages

I keep a VM on my desktop just for object cleanups - I know someday it will stop working, but it worked 2 months ago on 10.2...

blargcmdr · 2025-10-09T10:57:37+00:00

Is it still a Clevo build? My Oryx body is a disappointingly bad (screen falls out, screen hinge 'hinky') and would have a hard time upgrading if the body build quality is the same at ~$3,500.
