on bazzite desktop, is the default that grub is never hidden?

DevilFish303OP•6/8/24, 9:20 AM

for some reason i thought i had it hidden when i reimaged my desktop, i updated, then suddenly i started seeing it, got confused

DevilFish303OP•6/8/24, 9:21 AM

but i also don't remember going out of my way to hide it... lol

matt_schwartz•6/8/24, 9:21 AM

it’s in the setup portal I think

matt_schwartz•6/8/24, 9:22 AM

maybe something slipped through the cracks somehow? Not sure.

asen23•6/8/24, 9:23 AM

this is the default, deck image is hidden by default iirc

Mmatt_schwartz although of course I ended up RMAing it anyway for an internal crack

char•6/8/24, 9:23 AM

I am RMAing this until Valve adds a DC dimming option like they reassured me they are working on but have no timeline

char•6/8/24, 9:23 AM

Until then its basically no different from my LCD model and I can use that one (somewhat)

asen23•6/8/24, 9:24 AM

oled have a little bit better processor and battery life right?

char•6/8/24, 9:24 AM

yeah but it is not worth that at all to me

asen23•6/8/24, 9:25 AM

if pwm makes your head hurts i guess, luckily im not really affected by it

asen23•6/8/24, 9:25 AM

my old yoga laptop has that and people were complaining about pwm dimming

char•6/8/24, 9:27 AM

it usually doesnt

char•6/8/24, 9:27 AM

just the SD OLED and Switch OLED have such aggressive PWM dimming

Mmatt_schwartz maybe something slipped through the cracks somehow? Not sure.

DevilFish303OP•6/8/24, 9:37 AM

no i think i fooled myself into thinking i did it with this new setup, i looked through all my history, mustve done it in the old install

roberto_guccimane•6/8/24, 9:55 AM

the weird crashing to login screen happens again... mostly when starting steam

roberto_guccimane•6/8/24, 9:56 AM

also happened once when i launched discord

roberto_guccimane•6/8/24, 9:57 AM

desktop freezes for two seconds, i get kicked to the login screen, and afterwards one or more settings are reset like all extensions turned off or my bluetooth turns off and cant be turned on again until i fully reboot

PizzaV•6/8/24, 10:10 AM

where is it reccomended to get vscode

PizzaV•6/8/24, 10:10 AM

which source

asen23•6/8/24, 10:12 AM

flatpak is easiest

Mmatt_schwartz I tried to open my OLED Deck one time and gave up halfway through, that thing wa...

Pez•6/8/24, 10:21 AM

this will come to you with practice, not worth damaging a steam deck to learn the hard way

Pez•6/8/24, 10:21 AM

eventually you will find that sorta thing easy if you pull enough things apart

Pez•6/8/24, 10:21 AM

i suggest smartphones are a good way to train in bomb defusal

Brunvik•6/8/24, 10:22 AM

I'm in a dilemma, on the one Hand I would Love to have an MSI Claw (I would offer to test things until IT works) but an Legion Go looks so good too.

So I don't know whats more worth in the Long run

matt_schwartz•6/8/24, 10:24 AM

You are going to have a much better Linux experience with the legion go

matt_schwartz•6/8/24, 10:25 AM

even the way the msi claw does basic stuff is convoluted and a mess to sort through from what I understand

Brunvik•6/8/24, 10:25 AM

I recall lenovo even embracing Linux somehow correct me If I'm wrong

matt_schwartz•6/8/24, 10:25 AM

they at least acknowledge its existence for the legion go and support it on their business laptops

BBrunvik I recall lenovo even embracing Linux somehow correct me If I'm wrong

HikariKnight•6/8/24, 10:26 AM

ThinkPads yes, other laptops usually, legion go it was the easiest handheld to add support to

Brunvik•6/8/24, 10:26 AM

Enough for me to go with the go

HikariKnight•6/8/24, 10:27 AM

I have the go myself and I'm happy with it

HikariKnight•6/8/24, 10:27 AM

You need windows for firmware updates and controller updates though but I got an external with windows 11 to go on it for that

matt_schwartz•6/8/24, 10:28 AM

I had one and liked it but not enough to keep when I already had an Ally and the OLED Deck came out right as the return period was ending for my go

HikariKnight•6/8/24, 10:28 AM

I use my go as a hybrid handheld and laptop

HikariKnight•6/8/24, 10:28 AM

Just bring a keyboard with me

HikariKnight•6/8/24, 10:29 AM

And my deck is dedicated 100% handheld

Brunvik•6/8/24, 10:29 AM

What speaks to me somehow is the possibility to replace controllers

PizzaV•6/8/24, 10:35 AM

how do i install ollama i thought there was a ujust file for it but i dont see it

BBrunvik I recall lenovo even embracing Linux somehow correct me If I'm wrong

halva•6/8/24, 10:41 AM

lenovo are usually pretty good yeah, aside from some gaming laptops and yoga transformers

PPizzaV how do i install ollama i thought there was a ujust file for it but i dont see i...

HikariKnight•6/8/24, 10:43 AM

was going to be upstreamed to ublue-os/config and was removed for that and i believe someone just forgot to do it?
you can grab the just file from https://github.com/ublue-os/bluefin/blob/main/just/bluefin-tools.just
and install it with just -f bluefin-tools.just ollamajust -f bluefin-tools.just ollama since it would have been the same commands anyway

HikariKnight•6/8/24, 10:47 AM

forgot to mention i also use an env to make all games on the legion go run at 800p, the gamescope ui and mangohud still renders at 1600p
desktop stays at 1600p as the panel doesnt like the other resolutions very much
