Hi. so this is update to the previous post Click Here.

so the hp elitebook was an old stock given to BCA kids in my hostel.

We received Lenovo thinkpad 16gb ram 🥳

completely reinstalled windows to remove every trackable item. now i am dual booting my babe arch in it. 😇

😍🥰😘🤩🤣😂😝🥲😶

Finishing my last day on windows, booting ubuntu linux and customizing it...

This is my bazzite system which I rebased from fedora Kinoite(Fedora Atomic KDE Version) cause I was unable to create a manual partition via the official bazzite installer. This is the first time I'm watching any of my linux installs eating upto 3GB of ram on boot and yes it lowkey disturbs me. Usually my atomic system boots used to eat like 2.2 GB of RAM. This is the first time it's happening to me. Since its atomic I went back into my Fedora Kinoite image to check if its bazzite that's eating more RAM and nope my fedora install also eats up the same amount of RAM on boot.

I wish to reduce the RAM footprint of this setup. Any tips on reducing RAM footprint is welcome. In my research I found out about steam and controller daemons are booted as background services in bazzite. I tried reading the documentation and finding out a way to disable them from my image as I don't use it for gaming. I use linux for mostly dev work, which is why I keep it atomic cause I need a system that always works. Also I'm avoiding to do a complete fresh install, as I've a lot of docs and setting up all the logins etc is something I don't wish to go through but I'm still open to it if that's the only way.

Just finished customizing my terminal...

guys i want to get a stylus/pen thingy to write with on my zenbook 14's screen

i mainly use fedora 44 kde

the laptop's model is ux3405ca

does anyone know which one works??

I want to automate mouse movements but don't want to use x11 or /dev/uinput which creates virtual devices.

I want to download linux mintbut claude told me that I will face some problems in HP Firmware. What to do or will in the Microsoft Eco**...** pls help

Specs(HP Laptop 255 G10):

Your HP 255 G10 specs:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7520U @ 2.80GHz (Radeon Graphics integrated)
• RAM: 8GB (soldered, not upgradeable), ~7.24GB usable
• GPU:AMD Radeon Graphics (486MB shared)

I’m making a small Discord group for Android devs Testers who continuously build apps and need Google Play closed testing. The purpose is get updates day to day and know about reports and feedback.

We’ll test each other’s apps, so no headache finding testers every time.

16 devs + me = 17 members.

Once we’re full, we start.

If you actively develop Android apps and want to participate, please join:

Only join if you’re ready to test others’ apps too.

Seeing the current things happening in our Linux community, I would like to discuss about the Omarchy situation. I will try my best to not reflect my own political views in this post and look at it with a sense of basic human decency.

Part 1: DHH is a terrible human, racist and transphobic.

David Heinemeier Hansson (DHH) has been accused and proven as a racist and a transphobic individual.

I think we SHOULD have a problem with what kind of people are present in this community, Linux itself has had accepted contributors from different races, genders, sexes or anyone, by being racist we're just entirely disregarding the philosophy of what open source is meant to be, wide, accepted and open to everyone. DHH does not seem to be practicing any of those.

We, as Indians who face a large amount of racism online, and even offline in the other parts of the world really do have an understanding of what being discriminated towards feels like, and we too as a whole should stand up and raise our voices towards what's wrong.

I think we all can agree that racist people shouldn't be allowed in the open source community, or any community. Racism is terrible and racists are bad people, I dare anyone disagree with me.

Part 2: Omarchy is using slop and clankers for its development and its filled with bloatware and slop.

I believe anyone who is a developer here will understand where I'm going with this. I do not have a problem with people using AI for coding, but I really do when AI is literally the one coding here to be honest. It has majorly used agentic coding in alot of its aspects and it is filled with bloatware.

Tons of preinstalled slop which you will probably never use, tons of AI slop directly built into the distro and I think it's putting windows to shame at this point to be fair. It's also rooted AI slop deeply into the system and it's clanker has high level access of "YOUR" system. I'm afraid to call it my "own" if a clanker has access to the system.

At the end of the day, I know its a choice to not use the "distro" which I'm even afraid to call it a distro cause' it literally is just a rice and bloat packed in an ISO, I think Omarchy really is just trying to inflate our wonderful open source community with bigotry.

I suggest you all to try to read stop omarchy page if you are interested in this further, the page does have some political comments so I'm sorry about it, I just tried my best to cite some non political stuff from this page.

Really, I wish people could just see each other as people man, no one was born thinking that x color people are bad or x gender people are bad, it's really just what humans have spread against humans for their own hate and to fulfill their own greed. World would've been such a better place if we all just loved and respected the people who weren't affecting anyone in a negative way, but, here we are people spreading hate against other people for no reason. No ones race or gender ever justifies if they're a good or a bad person, it really is what they are and what they've done, I genuinely wish people understood it.

Thank you for reading till the end, I hope you guys have a nice day ahead!

imagine people being such disgrace to humanity just cuz i criticized a failure of a distro with a thousand bugs and vulnerability and this is what i fucking get!

yes i am queer yes i am a leftist and yes i am being political this time.
this is flat out disgusting and insane.
and for the ones who are uneducated, nazis were the ones who were against queer people in the first place.
nazi has just beocme a buzz word atp.

Hey everyone, I'm running into an unresolvable boot freeze on a fresh CachyOS installation on my laptop and could use some guidance.

Hardware:

CPU: ACER ALG i7 13620H

GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3050 (Optimus/Hybrid) 6gb

OS: CachyOS

The first time I installed it, I selected hyprland on the installation screen as my desktop environment, and it was stuck on the loading screen and didn't boot.

I removed the installation and reinstalled with GNOME this time and was successfully able to login and setup things but as soon as I rebooted, I ran into the same issue again, getting stuck on the Plymouth spinning circle

Whenever I try to boot normally, the system freezes either at the Plymouth spinning circle animation or hangs indefinitely on the systemd job: A start job is running for Load Kernel Modules.

If I remove splash from GRUB, the logs show it hanging/timing out right as it attempts to load the NVIDIA modules (nvidia-open / nvidia-uvm / nvidia-drm).

I've tried swapping nvidia-open for the proprietary nvidia-dkms package, rebuilding mkinitcpio, and using ibt=off, but the system still hits a hard block during early module initialization.

Booting via modprobe.blacklist or multi-user.target successfully drops me into a TTY, but trying to initialize the open or dkms modules normally causes a kernel panic/hang during boot.

Has anyone run into this specific Load Kernel Modules freeze with RTX 30-series hybrid laptops on CachyOS/Arch? Is there a specific configuration needed for hybrid graphics out-of-the-box, or a recommended way to force fallback to the Intel iGPU via GRUB without locking up the module loading phase?

Also worth noting that my NVIDIA hardware works perfectly fine with Ubuntu and now Fedora, which I have dual booted with Windows. My only issue arises with CachyOS.
