Cheers man. Thank you for all your hard work on uBlue and all the images. You are doing amazing work.

I would have reported it but I wasn't sure whether it was a local issue or a server issue and didn't want to burden you with an issue without the proper information. Also no worries bugs happen and I have seen no group or organisation react as openly and promptly to bugs as you people do. I hope that sometime in the future, you open donations for uBlue so that people like me who can't code can show our appreciation for this incredible project

Considering that McLaren and arguably even Ferrari/merc, depending on the track, have jumped them on car performance, even Verstappen victories are very unlikely. I don't know how they think perez is finishing anywhere near the podium in the current situation.

Yeah I think it is. Especially because the error got resolved on its own. Thanks

What's weird is that I did not run into these results when I searched for the error. What search engine do you use¿?

I am not using secure boot so I don't think that's the issue

Signature related issues causing rpm-ostree updates to fail in uBlue-os (silverblue:main) (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

So I saw that the rpm-ostreed-automatic.service was failing so I manually tried to upgrade but when i run rpm-ostree upgrade, I am getting an error Creating importer: Failed to invoke skopeo proxy method OpenImage: remote error: A signature was required, but no signature exists. Is this some error at my side or is this some key related issue at uBlue's side?

Liam Lawson set for FIA grid penalty before first F1 2024 race for engine allocation in c/formula1@lemmy.world
[–] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Considering that the sprints are an completely separate event now, these penalties should not be applicable in the sprint. For a team like AT who are very unlikely to finish top 8, it is an easy way avoid any real consequences of the penalty.

Edit : Hell for any team, it is advantageous to take the penalty during the sprint which gives out reduced points and then have the fresh engine penalty free for the actual race where much more points are at stake

For me, VLC doesn't support VRR on gnome(didn't try KDE) so I am using MPV. Even for me, who often struggles with using the terminal, it has been a breeze to use. I even changed the config files to have MPV use hwdec by default and it wasn't difficult. Truly a marvelous project

Is FreeSync over HDMI not supported in linux even for FreeSync compatible monitors? (discuss.tchncs.de)

I recently made a post about my FreeSync certified monitor not supporting VRR over HDMI. I thought that there was VRR support over HDMI even for versions below 2.1 spec. Am I mistaken in my assumption¿? Has the HDMI forum prevented the implementation of FreeSync in the open source drivers¿?

Obligatory fuck the HDMI forum and the HDMI spec.

VRR toggle visible on internal Laptop monitor but not for External FreeSync Monitor in GNOME (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

I have a AMD CPU + AMD dGPU laptop and recently bought a LG FreeSync monitor. I hooked up the monitor to my laptop and got it working mostly fine but I dont get any option to set VRR on my LG monitor.

I am on Gnome and have enabled VRR through gsettings. My laptop display shows the option to toggle VRR (and is currently being used with VRR on) but my LG display does not. The Archwiki says that the option to toggle VRR should show up on every supported display. I have verified from the user manual that FreeSync is supported over both HDMI and DP and from the monitors menu, I have verified that FreeSync is enabled. Is this a bug or I am missing something.

Hardware and Software

  • Ryzen 5 5600H with Vega integrated graphics
  • Radeon RX 5500M
  • Internal Display of 1080p, 144Hz (I have no idea which panel it is)
  • LG 24GS60F-B monitor connected over HDMI 2.0
  • uBlue main 40 (Fedora Silverblue 40)
  • GNOME 46.4
  • Kernel version 6.10.3
  • Mesa 24.1.5

Thanks in advance for the help.

How to find out which panel is used in a monitor (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de to c/pcmasterrace@lemmy.world

So there are these two monitors - Samsung Odyssey G3 LS24AG32 and LS24AG30. Both of them are practically the same but the LS24AG32 is 165Hz and the LS24AG30 is 144Hz. Since they are both VA panels, I was worried about severe ghosting. All the reviews I find are for LS24AG30 which has what I find is an acceptable level of ghosting but I the only model available on my region is LS24AG32 so I am wondering if it uses the same panel which would mean a similar level of ghosting. The issue is that the old model of the Odyssey G3 had terrible ghosting so I am worried about the LS24AG32. The LS24AG32 model comes with a AU optronics M238HVN02.0 CELL but I couldn't find any information for the LS24AG30. Can somebody help me. Thanks in advance

Testing if VRR is active and working (discuss.tchncs.de)

Testing if VRR is active and working

I recently updated to fedora 40 and enabled the experimental setting to get VRR running. But I am an idiot who has been playing at frames rates between 30-60 on screens without VRR for almost all of my life so I can't even know if VRR is actually working or not. Is there some rest I can run to see if VRR is functional¿? If not, which parts of the game should I concentrate to see the difference between VRR and no VRR¿?

Repairing bad sectors in an external drive (discuss.tchncs.de)

So I have this external 2.5" drive salvaged from an old laptop of mine. I was trying to use it to backup/store data but the transfer to the drive fails repeatedly at the ~290GB mark leading me to believe that maybe there is a bad sector on the drive. I tried to inspect the drive using smartmontools and smartctl but since it is an external drive, i was not allowed to do so. Is there anyway for me to inspect and fix this drive? I am on fedora ublue-main. The HDD is a 1TB seagate drive.

Edit : I am a linux noob so some hand holding will be appreciated. Also i am looking to use this drive only for low priority media files which i dont mind losing so please help even though it is not the greatest idea to use a failing drive

Edit 2 : It seems my post is not clear of what i am doing. I dont want to recover data from the drive. I want to try to use more of the drive for storing data

Words cannot express just how much I love the new setting to quickly toggle between light and dark mode. I am very very grateful. Thank you @aeharding@lemmy.world, this is a wonderful app.
