the OLED version has a more efficient CPU and fan resulting in a quieter fan noise
if you only play with headphones or only play lesser graphical games like Slay the Spire or Brotato you probably barely would notice the difference though
Charging control (80% charge/scheduled full charge if wanted) is available on my Pixel with CalyxOS
is it not available on the Fairphones?
It would be amazing if the runtime (per run) would be lowered
playing through three acts in one sitting is quite long, a runtime like Monster Train (40~90 minutes on non-speedrun time) would be pretty good
Arch Linux (like some other distros) also has a security tracker: https://security.archlinux.org/
because swap does other things than “extending” your physical ram
there is no shame in asking question especially if you already put in some effort yourself and mention what you already tried
Just a little heads up in case you didn’t knew:
if you install packages like latte-dock from pacman (or build from source in this case) they will vanish with your next Steam Deck update because the Linux on the Steam Deck works quite different to a regular Linux installation
I wouldn’t get so much hung up on latte-dock anyway since it is unmaintained since quite some time and doesn’t even work on the latest KDE Plasma 6 (which SteamOS doesn’t have yet but will come in the near future)
customizing the default Plasma Panel (right click on desktop > enter edit mode > add panel) is your best bet nowadays for a similar look
anyway if you are really dead set on latte dock you will need to “initialize” all public keys first from the Arch Linux and Steam developers until you actually can install anything on the package manager pacman
pacman-key --init
pacman-key --populate archlinux
pacman-key --populate holo
the last line is specific for SteamOS only
the init command probably only works in Debian nowadays givin it’s a thing from the sysvinit era
Latte Dock users will need to say goodbye then
the new plasma 6 panel can be customized to pretty much a dock
the default tasks applets still isn’t nearly as good though
in the right meme I believe the nvidia driver borked
The Arch Linux team releases Nvidia updates at the same time as kernel upgrades which should trigger a initramfs rebuild via mkinitcpio anyway
unless you do a partial upgrade anyway (never do that)
you probably have old hardware in that case
the latest kernel releases greatly helped with the effiency of newer AMD and Intel (Hybrid) CPUs which can give you a longer battery usage on laptops
which bootloader can’t do this? EFISTUB, systemd-boot and rEFInd can
you guys use GRUB lol
sorry that was a blunder on my part, I wanted to say “Debian and Fedora” but autocorrect gotten a hold on me it seems
People who deeply care about this typically use a distro which has a strong stance on FLOSS software like Debian or Fedora
Arch Linux is more free on this as long as the user gets a more conveniant way to install everything (even proprietary software)
the Arch Linux way however is also reading every PKGBUILD (where the license is stated) before installing and if you need to have an easier way to search through licenses just programatically solve this yourself i.e. by using https://github.com/archlinux/aur and going through all branches with a script
My Arch Linux Homeserver and VPS which ran since years are like: “huh?”
Not a single Ubuntu upgrade failure on my book anymore 🤞
hope this helps with the dumbster fire of the virtualbox version in the official Ubuntu repositories
(virtual box basically “breaks” on Ubuntu LTS once a newer HWE kernel gets released unless you install a newer version of it, leading to hundreds of support threads every time this happens)
If your AMD card is older than your latest linux distro release it’s plug and play, no driver installation required
Wayland works pretty well on most desktop environments too
beware fresh released AMD cards in combination with long term release distros like Debian stable, you most likely will need the driver from the AMD website (not recommended)
