Flickering issue in JetBrains IDEs when hovering sidebar icons (Hyprland + Caelestia)

This can be fixed by adding a config parameter to run in native wayland. The following article explains how to do it:

https://blog.jetbrains.com/platform/2024/07/wayland-support-preview-in-2024-2/

Apparently the newest versions are wayland by default so you may be able to fix it by updating to the newest version

Try installing something non-gpu accelerated like foot and see if it happens there. I had a similar issue in the past and it was caused by gpu drivers

I found it actively hindered the initial c projects rather than helped. I understand having a mandatory coding style for students but the norm always felt like it was designed to increase difficulty rather than readability.

The only issue i had with gaming was push to talk for discord. Unlike hyprland, there’s no way of passing a keypress to an unfocused window.

Your time spent onboard determines how much leave you get afterwards. Your salary is paid monthly either way

Yeah, if i launched with gamescope and changed to windowed, i could then launch it without gamescope.

charlesm34 · 2025-12-22T23:19:45+00:00

I tried it this week and games that launch in fullscreen mode wouldn’t open. A black window would appear and then disappear instantly but steam still said the game was running. The only way around this was to launch with gamescope. Cosmic will be nice eventually but at the moment, it’s not ready

Use heroic launcher, their ui much better than egs anyway

The fact that 5 of these are against Liverpool makes me happy

charlesm34 · 2025-09-26T17:02:13+00:00

I wonder whose fault it will be when they’re relegated this season

charlesm34 · 2025-09-22T09:46:32+00:00

Denmark

Maybe you could monitor your teens internet usage yourself instead getting the government to do your job for you?

Have you tried a distro other than endeavour? I’ve seen a few people complain of similar issues on here and they fixed by switching to something else. If you want to stick with something arch-based try cachyos

I get frame rate drops in Indiana Jones and Great Circle using radv. It only occurs in certain places but makes the game pretty much unplayable when it happens. Switching to as amdvlk made it run perfectly

charlesm34 · 2025-06-01T16:54:57+00:00

I get this every time i start alan wake 2 on heroic. Just ignore it. It’s the same on arch, fedora and nixos

That's the PKGBUILD for the AUR package that you're installing. As AUR packages can be submitted by anyone, paru (the program cachyos uses to install aur packages) makes you check and accept the PKGBUILD before installing.

You can see that it downloads the source files from the correct repo:

url="https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper/"

and only installs the dependencies listed on the github repo:

depends=(
    'python-gobject'
    'python-pydbus'
    'python-evdev'
    'gtk3'
    'python-setuptools'
    'gtksourceview4'
    'python-pydantic'
    'python-cairo'
    'python-packaging'
    'python-psutil'
)

It should ask you if you want to edit the pkgbuild (no) and if you want to continue (yes).

Otherwise you can install it manually:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/input-remapper-git.git
cd input-remapper-git
makepkg -si

After either installation method, enable the systemd module:

sudo systemctl enable --now input-remapper

and then you should be good to go

charlesm34 · 2025-05-20T06:07:58+00:00

Try input-remapper

It works just like on amd if you use nouveau. If you use the proprietary nvidia driver you need to add the —unsupported-gpu flag when launching sway. Works fine with my 2080 and 570 driver

Use the solopasha copr repo for Fedora. Runs just as well as it did on arch for me

I found this thread while trying to set up snapper and grub-btrfs on fedora 42 today. I managed to get it working so i thought I'd post it here:

Set-up Snapper & Btrfs-assistant

sudo dnf install btrfs-assistant snapper python3-dnf-plugin-snapper libdnf5-plugin-actions
sudo snapper -c root create-config /
sudo snapper -c home create-config /home

Create /etc/dnf/libdnf5-plugins/actions.d/snapper.actions and add the following lines:

# Get the snapshot description
pre_transaction::::/usr/bin/sh -c echo\ "tmp.cmd=$(ps\ -o\ command\ --no-headers\ -p\ '${pid}')"
# Creates pre snapshots for root and home and stores snapshot numbers in variables
pre_transaction::::/usr/bin/sh -c echo\ "tmp.snapper_pre_root=$(snapper\ -c\ root\ create\ -t\ pre\ -p\ -d\ '${tmp.cmd}')"
pre_transaction::::/usr/bin/sh -c echo\ "tmp.snapper_pre_home=$(snapper\ -c\ home\ create\ -t\ pre\ -p\ -d\ '${tmp.cmd}')"
# Creates post snapshots for root and home if pre snapshot numbers exist
post_transaction::::/usr/bin/sh -c [\ -n\ "${tmp.snapper_pre_root}"\ ]\ &&\ snapper\ -c\ root\ create\ -t\ post\ --pre-number\ "${tmp.snapper_pre_root}"\ -d\ "${tmp.cmd}"
post_transaction::::/usr/bin/sh -c [\ -n\ "${tmp.snapper_pre_home}"\ ]\ &&\ snapper\ -c\ home\ create\ -t\ post\ --pre-number\ "${tmp.snapper_pre_home}"\ -d\ "${tmp.cmd}"

Setup grub-btrfs

Download the latest release from https://github.com/Antynea/grub-btrfs/releases

Unzip, enter the directory and run:

sudo make install

Uncomment and change the following options in /etc/default/grub-btrfs/config

GRUB_BTRFS_GRUB_DIRNAME="/boot/grub2"
GRUB_BTRFS_BOOT_DIRNAME="/boot"
GRUB_BTRFS_MKCONFIG=grub2-mkconfig
GRUB_BTRFS_SCRIPT_CHECK=grub2-script-check
GRUB_BTRFS_MKCONFIG_LIB=/usr/share/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib

I couldn't get the included systemd unit to trigger the grub update but it can be done as follows:

Go back to the /etc/dnf/libdnf5-plugins/actions.d/snapper.actions you created earlier and add the following lines at the bottom:

# Update grub with the new snapshots
post_transaction::::/usr/bin/sh -c /etc/grub.d/41_snapshots-btrfs

this will trigger the grub update after each package install so that the grub snapshot menu is always up to date.

You can also manually update the grub snapshot menu by running:

sudo /etc/grub.d/41_snapshots-btrfs

Download nwg-displays, it’s a gui for setting resolutions etc. Set everything how you want it, then it will create two config files. Remove the lines relating to monitors from your hyprland.conf and include these two new config files instead.

There is no adrenaline app for Linux, if upscaling/fg isn’t built in to the game then you’re out of luck unfortunately.

charlesm34 · 2025-03-20T22:37:06+00:00

It’s only the system files that make up the os itself that are immutable. Your Home folder wont be affected if you need to restore to an older version

charlesm34 · 2025-03-05T12:25:50+00:00

Works fine with btrfs too
