Turns out I just had to add something to the start of my username, and had nothing to do with security protocols.

I mean, technically you can install a disc drive onto your computer if you want.

EDIT: Turns out my login information was slightly wrong, and had nothing to do with security.

My school uses EAP for its student WiFi, but there's no option for "EAP" security (PEAP, LEAP and every other option in KDE's WiFi security settings wouldn't connect). I'm pretty sure there was an option for EAP on Linux Lite (my previous OS before kinoite) which connected successfully. Is it possible to use EAP in Kinoite, and how do I enable/use it?

I've already tried PEAP (didn't work), but I swear Linux Lite had a security option for EAP (which did work).

Protip: make sure to delete the "si=[gibberish]" part of shared YouTube links, it's a tracking ID (Share ID) to track the performance of said share link.

i just realised this reads like a copypasta, huh

It's not an Nvidia problem (no discrete gpu, already checked both Windows and Linux)

Edit: Somehow missed your edit, oops

Also I might try X11, just to see if anything changes.

All that seems to do is force the game into windowed mode and cause heavy artifacting (using gamescope -f doesn't show the game at all, but it still seems to be running in the background).

Ah, so the issue isn't VRR then.

SOLUTION: Apparently there’s some sort of bug in xwayland that causes Steam games to flicker, so “downgrading” to X11 solved it (for now). Now all I need to know is how to file a bug report for this.


I'm trying to set up a Linux install for my mom (Ultramarine KDE on Wayland), and all her (2) Steam games are flickering. I thought it was from fractional scaling, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Her games don't flicker on Windows, and I've already tried multiple versions of Proton. I'm not quite sure what's happening, and any help would be appreciated.

Specs

  • OS: Ultramarine Linux KDE Edition
  • Host: Dell Inspiron 15 3511
  • CPU: Intel Core i5-1035G1
  • GPU: ~~pretty sure it uses integrated graphics~~ ~~apparently it uses Nvidia? First time I've seen that, gonna have to remember that in the future.~~ Both Linux and Windows are using integrated graphics with no sign of Nvidia anywhere??

If you need any more information, please ask me

Edit: other than the flickering, her games run perfectly fine.

Edit 2: Just learned my mom's laptop model has a discrete Nvidia GPU, gonna troubleshoot that in a bit.

Edit 3: Her laptop doesn't seem to have anything Nvidia inside, despite the fact that the Dell website says her laptop should, weird...

Whenever I click on a link, Thunder opens it under Chrome (embedded). Is there any way to change it to Firefox?

New-ish Lemmy user here (a couple weeks), I've noticed some comments under posts are 'lighter' than other comments. What causes this?

 

Made a linux community for my home instance because I noticed there wasn't already one.
