Now that i finally have filled up my sd card with games ill never play, time to add productivity crap. What’s the best way to install ides?

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 10:44 AM

for any application the ideal order to try find applications would be

flatpak
your choice of appimage, distrobox, nix, brew, etc in the order you want/prefer
rpm-ostree (last resort as it will slow down your updates a lot)

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 10:46 AM

if you do have a dev environment you can replicate in a different distro, i would suggest making a development distrobox and contain the toolchain to that

cpuccino•12/12/23, 10:54 AM

Nice, thanks mate

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 11:03 AM

and if youre proficient with nix then use nix if you prefer that

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 11:04 AM

i personally prefer distrobox

Raltay•12/12/23, 11:22 AM

There is also Devbox which can create "isolated, reproducible development environments that run anywhere". It also uses Nix under the hood.

Devbox: Portable, Isolated Dev Environments

Devbox creates isolated, reproducible development environments that can run anywhere without Docker or virtual machines.

Any reason dual boot doesn't work out of the box if this uses the Fedora installer ?

KKyle Gospo can't install a kernel w/ ostree without doing that

JilongOP•12/12/23, 2:20 PM

Ah, it probably needs /usr/bin/kernel-install/usr/bin/kernel-install which does several non-trivial actions in the cliwrapper script. I will just install etckeeperetckeeper into /usr/local/usr/local so that I can maintain my current workflow.

Yes, I'm testing bazzite on a Steam Deck OLED, and that seems to be the only image+tag that allows a USB keyboard attached to the dock to work at boot (needed to enter password used for FDE).

Gnome, alright. Did you enable passwordless login?

Deleted User•12/12/23, 3:34 PM

I think that's enabled by default in the deck version right?

ChaiQi•12/12/23, 3:49 PM

I'm not sure

ChaiQi•12/12/23, 3:53 PM

I don't have a deck, but passwordless login on my laptop made me enter my password upon opening my browser because it has a password manager which by design requires some escalation of privileges to cough up things like credit card info

ZZelaf Woot? rpm-ostree slows down updates?

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 4:00 PM

think of it as git for your whole OS
when you update, it has to download the new image then "git rebase" all your installed applications onto the new image

in layman terms it essentially "re-installs" the programs installed with rpm-ostree with each new update to the base system

Zelaf•12/12/23, 4:05 PM

Damn. There's some essential apps I need from rpm-ostree that I can't modify any other way

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 4:06 PM

then keep them as rpm-ostree, we are just warning you so you dont install everything with rpm-ostree and get a system that takes hours to update

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 4:07 PM

or get into a situation where it breaks updates in general until you uninstall the packages that stops it from updating (imagine how fun that will be with 300+ layered packages if you went that crazy

)

Zelaf•12/12/23, 4:08 PM

I tried getting gphoto2 working through nix but I couldn't get nix to work too reliably sadly

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 4:09 PM

yeah if neither nix or distrobox does it for you then rpm-ostree is the last resort which is why we call it last resort

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 4:09 PM

main point is to avoid people going straight to layering the package they want when it might not be neccessary

Zelaf•12/12/23, 4:10 PM

Well, if one layers 300 packages maybe it's best to setup a custom image

Zelaf•12/12/23, 4:10 PM

And let GitHub fix all of that

ZZelaf Well, if one layers 300 packages maybe it's best to setup a custom image

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 4:11 PM

yep, but not everyone here is willing to do that, some are rather new and just want to use the system normally.

Zelaf•12/12/23, 4:12 PM

With 300 extra packages?

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 4:12 PM

it was an example

Zelaf•12/12/23, 4:12 PM

I know haha, would be fun tho

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 4:12 PM

a newbie might not know it and just go "oh i will just rpm-ostree to install all my programs"

Zelaf•12/12/23, 4:12 PM

HikariKnight•12/12/23, 4:15 PM

dont think so, unless your decks usb mode is set to DRD in the bios, then you should set it to XHCI instead as i think we are still waiting for DRD support to be added to the kernel upstream
