I am gonna reinstall my system.

But I want to keep the Time played stat of the game.

I found all other data of lutris like banners, runners, runtimes but not this.

Any Idea where can I find Time played data, if it's even saved in file ?

Also does any you know where the KDE Plasma clipboard data is saved ? I've been using that as mini watch later list ๐Ÿ˜…

Yeah. I've been thinking about going back to Mint too. But the only thing stoping is that Arch is rolling distro. Which means I can get updates sooner. I mean linux gaming is getting better every day. I didn't like to be on lag for a year of improvements. Also Vavle investing lot on Arch.

I chose CachyOS, because it is made for gaming, it has decent GUI tools of its own and on top all that it's still Arch btw. So I can get benefits of Arch too.

Rolling distro can be both boon and bane. And now it didn't end up very well for me.

If you mean to ask why do i have to restore snapshot in the first place, I updated the system. And I didn't like the new update. First thing I noticed is Brave replaced all my group tabs to new tabs. When I searched about it, I came to know it's a common , critical issue that still haven't been solved๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ.

Also Brave is now significantly slower now.

I also noticed few are wierd or not there at all. ( Plasma 6.3.1)

First of all thanks.

  1. I booted live Mint.

  2. Mounted btrfs partition.

  3. I renamed the backup (snapshot that btrfs assistant created while originally restoring before) to @.

Now my system boots but .snapshots are in original @ (which now I renamed as something else). I want those snapshots or delete altogether (for freeing up space).

  1. I tried to rsync old snaps to new @. It worked, but now I have delete the snaps from old @ (source of snaps). Which I cannot do for some reason. It says read only file system. I typed sudo btrfs property set -ts /path/to/snapshot ro false it retuned error cannot retrieve properties

  2. Then I tried to delete .snapshots subvolume altogether, but it says directory not empty.

I used sudo btrfs subvolume delete /path/to/.snapshots

(.snapshots is a separate subvol mounted on old @ subvol)

Now I have a working system but all my old snaps are stuck on old root. Which I cannot delete.

Idk what to do.๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

It does match.

I included refind_linux.conf and partition UUID already. Should I include fstab too?

  1. I just used BTRFS Assistant to restore. I did while the OS is on.

  2. I shared some on edited post. Pleae look.

  3. Idk for sure. But it shows my user name after I enter password. So, I think root?

[โ€“] gpstarman 3 points 4 weeks ago

UUID remains unchanged. And matches with both fstab and refind_linux.conf

Please see edited post.

[โ€“] gpstarman 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

did you try to restore the root partition while it was mounted to root?

If you mean to ask if I restored the OS subvol while I am on the OS itself. Then, yes.

But, I've done this before and it worked just fine.

Maybe boot up a linux from USB and restore the root partition from there?

(from live mint) I tried to rename the @ (root) to @_2 and original subvol backup to @. And booted. OS successfully boots. But now my root partition is @_2, which should be @ ?

And the OS was in the state of prior restoration i.e. after system update.

Also please look at the edited part of the post

[โ€“] gpstarman 2 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Not yet.

I kindly request you to see the edited post too.

Context: I updated my CachyOS (Arch) BTRFS system. Some new things caused few problems especially brave browser(missing tabs), some icons missing.

So I wanted to go back to previous snapshot.

What I did: I first restored my home subvol which I saved before update. I worked.

Then I tried to restored my root partition. This is where I got the problem.

I got this error.

EXE icons out of nowhere (self.linux4noobs)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by gpstarman to c/linux4noobs@lemmy.world
 

I haven't updated my Arch (Plasma) for some time.

When I updated it yesterday, suddenly all the exe icons started to show up ( I'm dualbooting with Win ), which is not the case before.

As far I looked up, I can't find anything on internet.

I don't know if it's whether WINE or Dolphin or some other package.

So, what's changed ?
