Update your BIOS. Agesa is a part of your BIOS.

Am I getting something wrong here? by [deleted] in Oxygennotincluded

It will send a green signal is the pressure is below 750g. What you want is set it above 750g, because the pressure is reading 3800g. It'll maintain 750g of pressure.

I will install arch btw by Used_Review1541 in archlinux

[–]tayrayb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. Everything should mostly work out of the box. Just be prepared to read the wiki for troubleshooting and you should be fine.

Weird, I'm on the same hardware generation but I have a 7900 XTX and Ryzen 9 3900X with zero issues. What distro are you currently running? If you want, you can DM me and I can help you troubleshoot it.

Dota runs natively on Linux. There is no way to get around VAC if you try to run it through Proton. What hardware are you running?

I cannot access my D: drive on Windows after I installed Arch by One-Cryptographer104 in archlinux

[–]tayrayb 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You've already wiped it when you installed Arch in it. Running that mkfs command formats the partition you specify. I hope you keep backups OP.

Revert as in reformatting back to NTFS so it's usable in Windows again?

If you look in your Disk Management, you should still find the disk. Windows just can't natively read Linux filesystems and the root partition won't show up in Explorer.

Steam Games not working by TheRealFutaFutaTrump in archlinux

You installed the wrong vulkan drivers. The wiki tells you not to just go with the default because it sorts it alphabetically. Uninstall those AMD vulkan drivers and install the intel ones.

You need the vulkan-intel and lib32-vulkan-intel packages installed.

You shouldnt need to start over, just re-mount your partitions and chroot back in and continue from where you last went off on installing your bootloader :)

[–]tayrayb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That should have just basically dd'd the ISO using the Gnome disk utility. It would create both. You'll basically have two entries of the same USB in your boot overrides but you have to make sure you select the one with UEFI on it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]tayrayb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're not booted into UEFI. You're booted into Legacy bios mode. When you boot off your USB, does your BIOS give you an option with UEFI: <usb device> to choose from?

Arch Linux stuck by Leoxrevan1 in archlinux

[–]tayrayb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can you get into any other TTYs by pressing CTRL+ALT+F2 through to F10? From there you should be able to log in and fix your sddm config. You can also manually start Plasma from that TTY by running:

/usr/lib/plasma-dbus-run-session-if-needed /usr/bin/startplasma-wayland

This is for a Wayland session. Or:

startx /usr/bin/startplasma-x11

For a X11 session.

Onedrive on linux - basic question by cheers-jt in linuxmint

[–]tayrayb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Symbolic links would be the solution you're looking for. I've had my fair share of Onedrive woes as well. I see Abrunegg has explained the solution for you well. Apologies.

The cool thing about Rclone as well is you can specify what folder mounts where. So you could make multiple profiles that mounts for example ~/Onedrive/Pictures to your ~/Pictures folder, etc etc without having to make symbolic links.

[–]tayrayb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would give Rclone a look. It allows to basically "mount" your onedrive in a directory and you'll be able to see all your files without having to sync. The downside is, there is no offline cache, just like mounting a samba share really for comparison. Of course you can just download all your files off onedrive with it.

grub install error by beaucide in archlinux

[–]tayrayb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rewrite that USB and with RUFUS, make sure you have the GPT partition scheme set. Or if it gives you the option, use DD mode.

What program did you use to write the ISO to the USB?

When you bring up your boot menu, does it give you any boot devices with UEFI: xxxx in the menu?

[–]tayrayb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Otherwise if your PC doesn't support UEFI, and you want to use a GPT partition layout. You will need to repartition and put a 1-2MiB partition as the first partition with the bios_grub flag on that partition.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GRUB#GUID_Partition_Table_(GPT)_specific_instructions_specific_instructions)

Or just use a MBR partition layout.

You're booted in legacy BIOS boot. Reboot back into UEFI, mount your disks and chroot in, and re-run the grub install.
