Hi,

I'm trying to use my 7.1 surround system on Arch Linux PC with pipewire. Currently 1 DP connected to the main monitor and 1 HDMI connected to the 7.1 sound system. Sound system has 4 HDMI IN and 1 HDMI OUT to the TV. First issue is without activating second monitor I can't output any sound. Second issue is sound is always 2 channel. There are no other options on pavucontrol app. What i'm trying to achieve is

1. Using only main monitor and outputting sound through HDMI to sound system

~~2. Outputting both video and sound through HDMI, which is working but only on 2 channels.~~

Thanks in advance

EDIT:

silly me, I changed HDMI cable and it detected all possible audio outputs including PCM 7.1

Hi,

All I want is a notebook with amd cpu, no dgpu, 32gb ram, 1tb ssd and most importantly 120-144hz display. Am i out of luck or my search skills are just bad

Is this possible in boost? I couldn't find it on settings

Today usual updating replaced probably all K apps with extra/K. It didn't break anything but it was weird and scary when it's 100s of apps

Hi,

Today suddenly an horizontal line appeared on my laptop display. It's visible on BIOS screen and desktop. HDMI and DP output are fine. How bad it's? EDP cable replacement will fix it or not? It's guarantee is expired 5 days ago :(

I can see launcher and hit play but then nothing happens, It just stays on launcher. I tried --skip-launcher option and other Proton versions but none of them have worked. I'm on amd gpu and Proton-GE sometimes throws and error of "failed to collect displays" message, any idea?

SOLVED:

apparently sway was the problem and fixed it with below startup command

echo env --unset=SDL_VIDEODRIVER mangohud "%command%

Hi,

I want to buy a laptop for working and very light gaming on to go. I'm currently looking for Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 with AMD CPU and NVIDIA GPU. I'm going to use Fedora or Arch Linux with i3wm. The problem is I'm not sure if dual gpu setup is going to work or not. All i want to use igpu for all tasks until more power needed, then it needs to switch automatically to dgpu

Is this possible if so is there any good guide about it?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm using the function below (found on somewhere else)

(defun my-magit-fetch-all-repositories ()
  "Run `magit-fetch-all' in all repositories returned by `magit-list-repos`."
  (interactive)
  (dolist (repo (magit-list-repos))
    (message "Fetching in %s..." repo)
    (let ((default-directory repo))
      (magit-fetch-all (magit-fetch-arguments)))
    (message "Fetching in %s...done" repo)))

This was working fine and successfully fetching from all of my repos. But recently it randomly generates an error on a random repo with the message of:

magit fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

If I try to magit-fetch-all manually then it works and does not throw the error since I have correct rights and ssh key. If I re-run my-magit-fetch-all-repositories, it randomly generates same error on different repo or repos.

Have any idea on this?

How it started and how it ended

Hi,

Today me and other 5 Ubuntu users with similar setup had an issue with brave. It glitches with rendering, completely missing fonts and some ui elements. brave-browser --disable-gpu fixes it.

Anybody else have the issue and possibly a fix without disabling hardware acceleration?

1.52.130 Chromium: 114.0.5735.198 (Official Build) (64-bit)

EDIT:

For future reference here is the fix. I think it's related to new MESA update

rm -rf ~/.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/Default/GPUCache and restart brave

Hi,

My system sometimes crashes suddenly and reboots itself. It's random, browsing web, idling, checking mails, I couldn't find the trigger. This is the only log I could find about the crash
