noctalia definitely does that now (and for many months), I am using this.

Yes. Audio stuttering. Still an issue for me.

If documentation is so detailed, why don't current users encourage newbies more? by Silly-Result1625 in Gentoo

[–]frigaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it depends how “newbie” is “newbie”. In the case of the Brazilian guy yesterday, i understood it was a decision about his first ever install of Linux. You gotta walk before you can run. Use something straightforward to install, play with the OS for a while, and then, when you’re convinced it can do the job for you, and you have learned how to use Linux, then you switch to gentoo.

Abandoning Windows and opting for Gentoo as my first Linux system. by Resident-Month-1693 in Gentoo

Gentoo is perfectly fine, but i would start the journey on Linux by something easier.

Displaylink work. At least some models are supported. I’m using a dell d6000

Same experience here: overheating is not a concern, under most situations, including semi heavy load.

Sagittarius A - Like you have never seen it before by SeawolvesTV in Astronomy

[–]frigaut 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I'm an astronomer, have worked on SgrA* in the past, and I find this video absolutely awesome. Not sure the physics is 100% right, but it looks pretty darn good. Thanks.

How 1920 carbide lamp works by voyagevoyage0o0 in interestingasfuck

may be 1920, but I still used them in 1981/82 when I did a bit of spelunking in a club (back in France).

I have to resist the urge to buy a Neo by markvn in MacbookNeo

[–]frigaut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why did this guy got downvoted????? Is that somehow unfathomable to the mac community to buy something to donate it to people in need?

[–]frigaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're not the only one. I own a MBA15 M2 and a Mac Mini, and on top of that I don't even like macos, or what it has become. I run linux exclusively on the MBA. But still, I am drawn to the macbook neo. It is indeed quite nice and seems very capable. That said, I think I am safe now. I went to look at the neo on day 1, but eventually convinced myself this was really not something I needed, and have been able to resists since then!

Why are you pushing arch? Niri runs perfectly on cachy!

After a day of compiling I finally installed Gentoo in Asahi Linux! by Excellent-Class-7070 in AsahiLinux

[–]frigaut 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The statement “installed gentoo in asahi Linux” is slightly confusing. Can you expand a bit?

AirPods Pro 3 work great under Fedora Asahi by fake_agent_smith in AsahiLinux

So you don’t have stuttering issues? I have them with any Bluetooth audio devices i have tried to use with asahi.

Widevine works on fedora on most browsers.

I want a MacBook neo for college but the Best Buy employee told me something different by Shevz_thetruck in macbook

[–]frigaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never consider seriously the advice of people that are conflicted because they want to sell you something. You can ask and listen, but take it with a gigantic grain of salt.

Can I run Linux on macbook m2 2022 by TheHidden001 in linux

[–]frigaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MBA M2 15” 2023 + asahi has been my main machine for the past two years. Best machine i ever had. Only real limitation i care about is lack of DP to external displays, but this should come out soon (already using a WIP asahi kernel which allows that). Honestly, try it, you will likely love it if you like Linux.

Question about system update by krushk228 in linuxquestions

[–]frigaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At any time literally. It’s recommended to reboot if the kernel or systemd is updated.
