A bit of an unfortunate limitation... So if I find a theme I like off the kde store, then I have to package it as an RPM myself?

a ton of them come as RPMs, but yes if you find one that doesn't you'll need to package it

RuqOP•3/26/24, 4:13 PM

oh a ton come that way...where do I find them? pardon my ignorance.

Thanks. I'll probably avoid layering because I know that's supposed to be used sparingly and could cause issues if overdone. A login theme, while nice, isn't worth the trouble it theoretically might cause.

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 4:18 PM

Layering an SDDM theme shouldn't cause issues, main thing is layering exposes you to dependency issues like DNF might

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 4:18 PM

but a package that just adds some files that otherwise don't exist will never blow up like that

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 4:18 PM

here are my layers for reference

oh wow, apparently I really did find a proton 9 regression. was my first time submitting a proton issue, I was expecting my report to just sit in the tracker untouched but someone at codeweavers confirmed it within 5 hours.

pintocat•3/26/24, 4:53 PM

I always assume someone smarter than me has already looked at something

matt_schwartz•3/26/24, 4:58 PM

I spent way too much time going back and forth on whether it was a proton-ge issue or a valve proton issue and it appears I chose correctly

matt_schwartz•3/26/24, 5:00 PM

especially confusing because it involves media foundation shenanigans, which doesn’t work on valve’s proton anyway

pintocat•3/26/24, 5:09 PM

how did you troubleshoot it?

You can alternatively create a SDDM conf file and point the themes to a directory in your home folder

B_Wize•3/26/24, 5:30 PM

It's a bit of tinkering, but it also works, and you can download the themes as regular zips from pling.com or something

Did you have to do anything to get coolercontrol to actually control your fans, Kyle, or are you using a fan controller in your fractal?

B_Wize•3/26/24, 5:33 PM

I've been able to get coolercontrol to layer at build time, but it never detects any fans

BB_Wize Did you have to do anything to get coolercontrol to actually control your fans, ...

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 5:40 PM

I am using a Corsair Commander pro

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 5:40 PM

just installing cooler control was enough, no setup

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 5:40 PM

also detects my AMD GPU, my corsair AIO, and my corsair PSU

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 5:41 PM

it's down to what liquidctl supports, that's the backend for cooler control

I may give this another shot. When I was using it, almost all the main hw got detected, but my fans (connected to mobo headers) weren't showing up

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 5:51 PM

controlling mobo fans may require you to manually load some kernel modules

B_Wize•3/26/24, 5:51 PM

Been debating if I should pick up a decent fan controller that'll fit in my case, and maybe that will work with liquidctl

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 5:51 PM

check the liquidctl documentation

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 5:51 PM

if you do get a fan controller, that corsair commander XT is dope

Kyle Gospo•3/26/24, 5:51 PM

do that

Hogsten03•3/26/24, 5:53 PM

Does anyone know where I could look for a “walkthrough” of different plugins and different things baiter can do? Not sure how to word that fully lol. I’m not new to Linux or anything, but I am new to SteamOS and how the different plugins for bazzite (such as simpledeckytpd) affect the device, but I can’t seem to find any videos or wikis on anything like that. Thank you in advance!

Hogsten03•3/26/24, 5:54 PM

Bazzite* not baiter

KKyle Gospo if you do get a fan controller, that corsair commander XT is dope

B_Wize•3/26/24, 5:54 PM

This looks dope, and the price isn't bad

B_Wize•3/26/24, 5:55 PM

I just need to see if it'll fit in my case (SFF)
