Some games heavily depend on those primitives in their render loop and emulation is very slow, so the numbers are pretty realistic. However, the actual impact varies a lot depending on the game.

to be serious, adding logging to iptables is par for the course for me when I’m trying to twist firewalld to do what I want it to do the alternative being, of course, to keep adding rules and crossing my fingers

Sapozhnik posted:I like firewalld but I can't get it to work with a wireguard server for the life of me. Traffic comes in over the tunnel but then fails to forward. firewalld works best for servers, I think. Routers tend to require a bit more work and the abstractions break down if you try to do anything complex. Good thing someone else already posted a solution because I’d have to post my terrible configuration for the internet to see Progressive JPEG posted:i just have a blanket ACCEPT zone config against the wireguard interface like this and it seems to work: I do something similar for my ipsec tunnel.

i spent half the weekend installing fedora over and over trying to figure out why I was running into this known issue even though i had deleted the old efi partition and gone through the workarounds, fukkin' linux i swear turns out the flash drive had gone bad. installed same iso from a different one and everything was fine everything went fine, that is, except of course bluetooth. which had worked perfectly well with the previous 5+ year long rawhide install. so i spent another day or two rebasing back and forth between different versions to figure out which kernel version had broken the bt drivers, fukkin' linux i swear turns out it was a hardware issue. following a stackoverflow suggestion from 2008, i shut the computer down and unplugged it for 5 minutes, bt chip gave signs of life. unplugged it for 1 hour and now it works idk if there is a lesson there

serious answer is to always test flash after writing a new image to make sure it was done correctly although I had half expected fedora to actually test the disk before installing it, I guess it only checks a subset of the data.

sb hermit posted:serious answer is to always test flash after writing a new image to make sure it was done correctly there's a separate "test this media then install Fedora" option when you boot the ISO that of course I didn't choose

Isn't the default boot option for the installer to check the media? I sort of remember always having to arrow up to avoid it. edit: yeah that ^

speaking of which i ran into some efi secure boot revocation thing recently because it turns out that silverblue/ostree/whatever doesn't update the actual bootloader in the efi partition like, ever, so i had to do it manually. only ended up at a grub command prompt one time even, not bad. they've had an action item to fix this for like three releases now although something like that can render your system unbootable if it fucks up so i do understand their trepidation edit: u gotta copy the contents of /usr/lib/ostree-boot/efi/ into your efi system partition, but you also have to make sure you preserve EFI\fedora\grub.cfg which is where i messed up like an absolute noob Sapozhnik fucked around with this message at 18:15 on Apr 16, 2024 |

it's the shim package. the shim boot loader is shipped in the shim package. well, shim-signed since someone has to pay microsoft to sign it.code:

in any case i'm pretty pleased with bazzite. it's not really a distro (as the guys say themselves), it's just a bunch of gaming-related fixes applied to fedora that most people can't be arsed to apply on their own. for example, i didn't have fully working fan/temp controls on fedora because the controller for my amd board is weird and requires a specific package from github - bazzite adds that. and i never got sunshine/moonlight to work reliably on base fedora, but the installation ootb in bazzite ran on the first try most importantly, i can confirm that switching back and forth between base fedora and bazzite works perfectly i'd be curious to try bluefin (same deal but for developers) but tbf nowadays i do a lot more gaming than coding on this machine anyway i'll try rebasing to it on my laptop next, which has the nightmare scenario for linux (relatively old, but still has nvidia/intel split graphics) and see if it works better NihilCredo fucked around with this message at 15:27 on Apr 17, 2024 |

I've only had to overlay three packages: btrfs-assistant, snapper, and sunshine. Everything else is flatpaks or in a distrobox assemble file that can be redeployed with one command.
