VR is not good on Linux lmao. I have a valve index and when I used it on linux, it had super bright lights on the edges of the display. I ignored this and played for like 30 mins and after 1 month of no VR usage (busyness), I tested it on windows again and now the edges of my displays in my headset appear to be permanently tinged slightly lighter than the rest of the screen.
I’m not using my headset on linux again until people spend more time coding, because I don’t want to permanently ruin expensive gear that I have lmao.
Nix is a programming language, so you have to organize your configuration yourself like you would for any programming project, usually by splitting it into multiple files. Also you can search system modules on the same page that you search for packages though usually there’s not much of an explanation for what it does outside of reading the source code.
System modules use the package from the repository while enabling some systemd stuff and whatever other options that you will want enabled with it. On a single user system, there is no meaningful difference between system packages and user packages.
Home-manager can be used to manage files in your home directory, like your configs for apps and stuff. It also can have more module options for apps so you can set up their settings declaratively. Its not for everyone but this is what its supposed to do, outside of your normal nix configuration.
Nix flakes aren’t a way to install packages, but a way to manage the nix based projects which include nix packages and your nixos configuration and is supposed to make it more reproducible, so its not directly related to installing packages. However if a package for something isn’t in the repos, someone may make a nix flake for installing and building the package.
Its understandable that you are having trouble though, because the documentation for nix and nixos is terrible, and it only got better for me once I actually spent time learning the nix programming language.
Its kinda annoying for anyone not on debian or fedora (and derivatives) though.
Try using distrobox arch. I did that on nixos and after some troubleshooting I got it to work.
If you use org mode, you can use this https://github.com/misohena/el-easydraw. Its a basic drawing tool in emacs.
The nix package manager can be used on any os and doesn’t require usage of the nix programming language…
flatpak run also doing that
The org.foo.bar thing is done so that multiple packages with the same name can coexist. It’s a design choice, not something that gets fixed. It would be nice to be able to type in the name of the package and it looks for the package like in flatpak remove and install though.
They can just say that Linux is not supported though with proton because the community will just make it run better if they don’t block do anything to block Linux.
I just listen to playlists that people make or youtube videos of song genres or artists that I like.
I’m using a cpu from 2013 and gaming in containers seems to work as well as it does outside of containers.
Usually people like to maximize the height of windows, especially to have 2 windows side by side, so it just conceptually makes a lot of sense to have every window have the maximum height and just add windows horizontally so they are actually visible like in normal tiling window managers. Maximizing the width of windows doesn’t really make that much sense honestly, because most horizontal space is wasted because theres so much horizontal space compared to vertical space.
I’m on amd
In my experience, any HDMI’s or Display Ports plugged into my GPU have terrible performance on Wayland while working perfectly on X11, so it seems there are still problems. Though tbf X11 doesn’t work at all with HDMI’s plugged into my motherboard so it could be a hardware issue? I have a 11 year old motherboard so idk.
If you hold down the mouse button while hovering over the address bar, that starts selecting stuff. Is there a reason your usecase isn’t covered by this?
I just use distrobox on NixOS.
Ctrl-C halts whatever is running in your terminal though. To be fair, I’ve always just used Ctrl-Shift-C because thats closer to my hand.
Its funny because a lot of people do this even though its completely unhelpful in solving their problem.
osu! is a free and open source rhythm game. Its pretty much the best pc rhyrhm game.
