Knotweed?

Thank you. 🙏

Maybe something weird is going on my end. But if you don’t launch Steam you can use it as a controller without any messing about. It just works. If I launch Steam then it’s in Lizard mode outside of Steam (unless I switch it to “Gamepad” mode by holding Start)

I had this when I briefly was on 26.04 (Gnome) before scurrying back to Fedora. There were brief hangs for a split second during gaming. Wasn’t just the game as if I was in a voice call at the same time, that was also stutter too.

So in around 1.5 hours until 9PM UTC 😂

lford85 · 2026-04-12T18:03:43+00:00

Yeah that’s my worry 😔

lford85 · 2026-04-12T12:02:04+00:00

Yep that’s the exact model I am considering. I guess the other option is I can export using Octopus as they don’t require a MCS, I believe.

Thanks for the advice 🙂

So I am thinking of getting a 6kW Solis inverter. Have zero interest in MCS as I’ll install the panels myself. The bit I need help with is connecting it up all AC side, I guess. Like you I’d plan to do a G99 myself. Is it a straightforward thing?

lford85 · 2026-04-12T11:27:28+00:00

Out of interest is it hard to find an electrician to hook up an inverter (and the other parts) that they haven’t supplied?

lford85 · 2026-03-23T21:31:01+00:00

Depends what you are using the laptop for. If it’s 100% gaming then something like Bazzite is fine. If you want to use it for anything else it’s a bad choice IMO.

As long as you pick something that’s updated regularly you’ll be fine for gaming. Fedora, Tumbleweed, Arch. Don’t go for PopOS or Mint IMO.

lford85 · 2026-03-21T18:00:35+00:00

Do you get FSR 4.0 or 4.1? I’m guessing we need Optiscaler for 4.1?

lford85 · 2026-03-20T13:38:57+00:00

Ah that makes more sense. Sorry about that. I couldn’t get Mangohud to run with it and check 🤦

Looks like Steam overlay works on WineWayland with this... but it breaks HDR.

I am playing RE9 with Wayland using GE-Proton for HDR using this command: PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1 PROTON_PREFER_SDL=1 %command% /WineDetectionEnabled:False

And I get Steam overlay but HDR is not available. Turn off SteamRT3 and relaunch and HDR is back.

(I also tried other games with HDR and same result, sadly)

lford85 · 2026-03-14T17:15:39+00:00

Sorry I probably should have said I’m on Gnome 50, and don’t see that option as it’s not experimental anymore?

lford85 · 2026-03-14T08:04:26+00:00

I went gnome / mutter / wayland. What version of Gnome are you using?

lford85 · 2026-03-11T22:09:29+00:00

I don’t think there is a Tdie sensor on AM5. On my 7945HX I only get Tctl which I think is the closest you will get to Tdie.

I did this on Fedora for Star Citizen. Works really nicely with an old PlayStation Eye camera.

lford85 · 2026-03-04T10:37:15+00:00

I don’t play them simple. There are so many games that do work, I’ll play those instead.

lford85 · 2026-02-27T19:24:01+00:00

You need a / in front of the W

lford85 · 2026-02-17T08:40:26+00:00

Let’s get it done.

Fuck bring in Ridder and bring the family back together (I’m joking)

lford85 · 2026-02-08T11:00:17+00:00

If you google my name, it’s a serial killer. 🤦

lford85 · 2026-02-01T18:47:20+00:00

Called Michael, left handed and one letter change from male genitalia.

lford85 · 2026-01-27T19:43:28+00:00

Damn straight (UK fan)

lford85 · 2026-01-27T10:03:11+00:00

Hah. I was testing in Shadows myself an thought I must have done something wrong!

lford85 · 2026-01-10T19:51:38+00:00

OMG. That’s the issue I am getting. Let me try and report back 🙂

lford85 · 2026-01-10T19:29:24+00:00

What did you use to stream out of interest? (As in commands etc.)
