What was wrong with the old logo¿?

Why I need extra kernel modules to be able to run Wayland on nvidia? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] Sentau@feddit.de 1 points 11 months ago

No Xorg also ships with up to date distros like Debian, arch, Ubuntu, etc but several of them have switched to using Wayland by default. It is deprecated because it is no longer actively developed and only maintained by a small group of devs and even that because these devs work for companies like Red Hat, Oracle, etc who have a vested interest in fixing those bugs

The (RTX 4060 Ti) was the most disappointing GPU I reviewed this year in c/games@sh.itjust.works

The 4090 isn't that much better than the 4080, and the 4080 is much more energy efficient

The 4090 often beats the 4080 with a margin of 25% or more often has a one percent low figure better than the average frame rates delivered by the 4080. If that is not enough for it to be considered much better, I don't know what is.

Regarding your comments on efficiency, generally the high end is not as efficient as the other GPUs as they are pushed beyond the ideal point of the voltage-frequency curve to extract the most performance. And even after this, in GPU bound scenarios, the 4090 does great as it uses 25-35% more power to deliver 20-30% better fps which puts it on average around 10-15% behind in efficiency which is not enough in my opinion to claim that the 4080 is much more efficient.

but the 4080 and 4090 absolutely blow previous gens out of the water

Just the 4090, the 4080 is not is not that big a jump compared to the 3090Ti. Considering the 4080 trades blows with the 7900xtx, can't say that it blows previous gen out of the water

Firefox PiP doesn't stay on top in GNOME in c/linux@lemmy.ml

So I am guessing that always on top works on the flatpak version because it is running through XWayland

I am using fedora silverblue and in the native version of Firefox, the picture in picture window does not have always on top enabled. Is there anyway to change a setting such that always on top is enabled by default. I know it is supported on gnome+fedora because the flatpak version(I downloaded to test this behaviour) has this enabled by default.

What bling¿? I thought endeavorOS was very minimalist as well. Just arch with an easier installer

So i was trying to launch steam but it did not work so I ran flatpak run com.valvesoftware.Steam and found the error messages below. I tried looking through the python scripts but i am not a programmer and could not zero in on the issue. Could some body help me as to how to fix it.

Update handling after rebasing Fedora Silverblue (feddit.de)

So I am trying out fedora silverblue and recently rebased it to uBlue to get access to hardware decoding for non-free codecs and for some QoL improvements. Before rebasing, I used to get both system updates(update to image that silverblue is based on) and flatpak updates through the gui package manager(gnome-software in this case) but since i rebased, i was not getting any notifications for system updates. I ran rpm-ostree upgrade and then it pulled from the manifest and updated the system using the updated image. For some reason gnome-software did not know this new image was available.

My question is does this mean that i will have to run rpm-ostree upgrade to update from now or will gnome-software handle it? I have no problem using the terminal but gnome-software is more convenient and I am lazy.
