for me i have been on
debian --> ubuntu 8.10 - 19.10 (yes this was a singular install without reinstalls, just migrations to new disks using

dd

on work systems it has been
debian --> centos --> debian/ubuntu --> centos --> debian/ubuntu --> proxmox with whatever :clueless:

my home folder had crap from gnome2, gnome3 and unity

Sean (SuperRiderTH)•6/18/24, 7:02 AM

I wish canonical kept unity alive, I really liked it. But they have sure made some decisions

Sean (SuperRiderTH)•6/18/24, 7:04 AM

Sure it still is kinda a thing, but it isn't really shipped by a lot of distros

That single install is super impressive lol

I was too busy playing call of duty on Xbox live for Linux

My controllers on go stopped working on Waydroid. Where do I start debugging this

gt73•6/18/24, 7:20 AM

It’s recognizes it but none of the buttons work

antheas•6/18/24, 7:21 AM

fps mode time

yay

wolfyreload•6/18/24, 7:27 AM

For gaming it was Pop!_OS for almost 2 years >> Nobara >> some crazy distrohopping >> Bazzite.

My work linux journey has been quite short Pop!_OS 22.04 >> Ubuntu 22.04 >> Kubuntu 22.04. I want to go Aurora for work

Looks like there is an Ubuntu Unity community still https://ubuntuunity.org, they do seem to be up to date as they have released 24.04 but the Reddit looks kinda dead so no idea if people are using it or not

@Kyle Gospo Hey, small update on my pro controller problem, I found it's a fedora issue:

https://community.frame.work/t/responded-fedora-39-switch-pro-controller-only-works-on-first-pair/39500/5

Framework Community

[RESPONDED] Fedora 39 - Switch Pro Controller only works on first pair

Got around to troubleshooting this again. So I neglected to mention I was using KDE as my desktop environment, I installed it over the top of the usual Fedora 39 release since the chipset firmware that shipped had a bug that made it impossible to start Wayland in the initial login screen or something. So if I switch to GNOME I can’t get the con...

nap•6/18/24, 8:12 AM

how do I convert my gnome install into a game mode install

nap•6/18/24, 8:12 AM

the kind that boots into game mode first

dreamyuki•6/18/24, 8:19 AM

rebase to deck image with gnome

nap•6/18/24, 8:19 AM

thanks

nap•6/18/24, 9:40 AM

ok I rebased to an image that is supposed to start in gaming mode, but it doesn't boot into gaming mode. "return to gaming mode" also just goes back into desktop mode

nap•6/18/24, 9:43 AM

hm. appears to be a known issue

wolfyreload•6/18/24, 9:45 AM

If you reboot again, it might go directly into game mode, typically the first boot is always desktop mode for some of the setup

nap•6/18/24, 9:46 AM

lemme try

nap•6/18/24, 9:48 AM

nope. reboot still puts me in desktop mode

Mmatt_schwartz ya’ll knew what Linux was in grade school??? 😭

Pez•6/18/24, 9:48 AM

my primary school barely had literature covering anything besides BASIC hobby computing and weird tangential linux stuff

Pez•6/18/24, 9:48 AM

and this was like

Pez•6/18/24, 9:48 AM

early 2000s

Pez•6/18/24, 9:48 AM

it doesnt make sense and i refuse to try and figure it out!

Mmatt_schwartz ya’ll knew what Linux was in grade school??? 😭

dreamyuki•6/18/24, 9:52 AM

Yes
My elementary school use opensuse with gnome and kde

nap•6/18/24, 9:58 AM

woah

nap•6/18/24, 9:58 AM

dat's awesome

Nnap nope. reboot still puts me in desktop mode

wolfyreload•6/18/24, 10:10 AM

Not sure if this will work as I don't have a GPU that works with gamescope but steamos-session-select gamescopesteamos-session-select gamescope might work for changing the startup to gamescope when you are in the deck image.

Ddreamyuki Yes My elementary school use opensuse with gnome and kde

nap•6/18/24, 10:10 AM

i dont think i have a deck image (i chose home theater) but i'll give it a shot

wolfyreload•6/18/24, 10:10 AM

Have a look at

rpm-ostree status

rpm-ostree status

, if you selected anything with gamemode enabled it will use the deck image.

RogueLikely•6/18/24, 12:31 PM

Does anyone know how to pull up system monitor on bazzite? On steamOS "crtl-esc" pulls it up, but on bazzite that key combo seems to not do anything.

RRogueLikely Does anyone know how to pull up system monitor on bazzite? On steamOS "crtl-esc"...

Crono•6/18/24, 12:31 PM

Try Ctrl + Shift + Esc

CCrono Try Ctrl + Shift + Esc

RogueLikely•6/18/24, 12:32 PM

Nope that seems to not do anything either

RogueLikely•6/18/24, 12:37 PM

Found it. for anyone wondering, the combo is to open system monitor on bazzite is "meta+esc"

Aru•6/18/24, 12:37 PM

You can also create your own custom keyboard shortcut

Kasher_CS•6/18/24, 12:38 PM

Funnily enough its Ctrl Shift Esc on Bazzite Gnome

RogueLikely•6/18/24, 12:39 PM

I should have clarified that on Bazzite with KDE, the combo to open system monitor is "meta+esc" becuase this is linux and of course it would be different on the GNOME version lol
