My recommendation would be to have Linux on the 500gb drive and then install windows directly on the other drive without partitioning. I wouldn't install Linux on a partition as Windows likes to mess with the bootloader but if Linux is on it's own drive you can always boot it from EFI without issues.

Easy actually. I'm on arch (Hyprland) right now, so no longer EOS but it's been refreshing. I'd recommend EOS as a base for any arch install, better than "arch installer" by a long shot. If you have dedicated storage I'd recommend using it and booting to the respective system through EFI rather than relying on software bootloader (windows likes to break it). I am running arch on a dedicated SSD and it's been smooth so far.

Thank you, I will read it

I have to log in to xfce for the profile to take effect. I set Nvidia settings to start at login, even though the process does start on Wayland it doesn't apply anything until I enter xfce, then I can exit it and start my Hyprland session

Enabling G-Sync and increasing digital vibrance on my second monitor. Everytime I need to increase the vibrance on my second monitor I have to first boot into xfce, open nvidia settings until the profile loads then log out and then log into hyprland. It's very annoying.

btrfs snapshots

I had a snapshot with Timeshift but did not revert back any changes made to the theming I was working on, so I distro hopped.

 

I've been using Wayland (Hyprland) for a couple days now and I notice there's no support for Nvidia settings. Nvidia X Server Settings will open without the possibility of making any changes.

Do we know anything about future plans on integrating Nvidia settings on wayland?

Depends on the distro, something like EOS is basically Arch with fancy pants on.

Not much difference between sway and Hyprland

I used to be on Majaro for awhile, years ago but I wouldn't recommend it now. It doesn't have any of the advantage of an Arch based distro. Their own repo has issue. I would recommend Endeavour OS

What Arch based distoe were you on? I would love to spend some time on Debian and OpenSUSE eventually. Also Fedora is intriguing, I wished I tried it already.

I've had experience with Debian based and Arch based distros only. I was on Majaro for months before I had to switch back to windows and leave Linux behind for awhile

i3 for while but I mainly used xfce. Hyprland overall feels "new", unlike X11, Wayland just "flows" better in a way. i3 felt more clunky but overall more stable, if that ever makes sense.

I told myself I wasn't gonna do it anytime soon but I distro hopped from Endeavour OS to Arch with Hyprland in the span of 3 days. Nothing against endeavour. I just tried to customize, broke some stuff and decided to try Hyprland again. I'm quite liking it. It takes awhile to get used to it but it's fun. I cloned a repo for a customized version of it. I don't know how long I'll stick with it but wish me luck!

It was working fine until yesterday, now I'm getting this error. I made sure it's installed and configured correctly, clang is also installed, made sure.

I booted up the computer today and started working on a project (I'm learning C++) just find out the LSP can't find the matching language server for some reason.

I was thinking of switching to VS but I like the way I set up neovim.

plugins.lua

null-ls.lua

mappings.lua

lspconfig.lua

chadrc.lua

I appreciate the help!

 

I'm using EndeavourOS. I installed btop++ as well as Disk Usage Analyzer. Both give me different disk space information.

I know I don't have 60gb worth of files on my system for sure, DUA confirms that. How can I get btop++ to read the correct disk space usage?

Almost finished setting up my new OS, it's gonna be my main (dual booting with Windows on separate disk). Tokyo Night theme for GTK, xfce terminal, btop and vim. Papirus Dark icons.

I tried switching to Linux on my main PC (cause I'm bored and I have an extra SSD to waste). Like the video shows, I can't seem to get my left vertical monitor to properly configure on this OS. It's completely broken. I can't interact with anything on main monitor once I apply the settings as shown in the video.

The only way it works is if I keep my left monitor in horizontal position.

Google didn't help and apparently it seems to be a common problem. It's on me for choosing a broken distro but I kinda like it otherwise. I'd rather find a fix the screen problem.

I'm using an Nvidia 3070.

 

I was a happy Netflix user until 2018, before that I haven't really pirated any movies (with very rare exceptions) for almost a decade but I recently started again. I'm was doing my monthly budgeting and realized I was paying for too many subscription services. Netflix, Amazon Prime, Shudder, Disney+, Hulu and Crunchyroll. My family likes to watch different types of content that is distributed on many different platforms.

I was never subscribed to these many services until a couple years ago. I was thinking which service I should cancel when I realized I had the option to cancel all of them this entire time. I'm torrenting again and I started saving a considerate amount.

The only service I'm paying for is Spotify which I think it's fairly priced and offers all the music my family listens too (and it's convenient). All the competitors pretty much offer the same content and that's how streaming services should be.

I remember back in the day using eMule and BitChe (to look for torrents). Now I'm using Deluge as my torrent client and I I get my torrents from 1337x. What sites are you guys using?

 

How do I pin important posts in my own community using Jerboa? (Or the website).
