Displaylink driver stop working for anyone else after latest update? by SidewaysHighways in c/linuxmint@lemmy.ml
[-] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Oh, got my issue figured out by uninstalling and reinstalling the displaylink driver.

I think using USB c out to a dock offloads all the processing to the dock, not using the graphics card?

If I'm trying to game on external monitor I use the regular HDMI port

"10 foot UI" for Linux? by SidewaysHighways in c/linux@programming.dev
[-] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

There's an older and a new version of the addon. And it works well enough! Even has a helper to clean up the interface around the emby stuff.

The secondary emby app can still control the kodi box the same way also!

I'm an emby person myself and am enjoying LibreELEC a bunch. With the emby for Kodi addon I've gotten so used to having every single thing in one interface that when a situation presents itself where I'm using the actual emby app, I get disappointed with the fact that none of the other Kodi addons are there.

It's pretty slick and once everyone is used to the Kodi interface for all apps/addons we've never looked back

Mine was working fine until I pulled the trigger on that update and rebooted. No bueno since then.

Has anyone else tried it out? Having trouble getting displaylink to work and it's just a little sluggish but it's a tiny little baby puter!

EDIT: I was really hoping for bazzite to have a knockoff steamdeck but alas..

Just sitting here waiting on the peeps who know more about stuff to chime in on this, cause it sounds awesome. But I've been burned before so I'm hesitant

LibreELEC setup? (lemmy.world)

How much experience do you guys have with LibreElec? I've been playing with Kodi on and off for years and years, but am looking at this to replace a fleet of rokus at the house after the recent terms debacle. Anyone have recommendations for UI and usage tweaks to make it easier for the family to use?

I see that it has docker abilities which seems awesome.

Right now I have it installed on bare metal, but might consider running 3 LibreELEC VMs on the same machine with proxmox if that would even be possible. Has anyone tried that? How much horsepower would one need to run 3 1080p streams if it's possible.

If I'm barking up the wrong tree, I apologize! And would appreciate being pointed to the correct community.

I am considering snagging a family pack, as we are looking for something cool to host at home and play for a while. Is this engaging enough to keep us all hooked for a bit?

Can a self hosted server function for the evening if my ISP goes down?

I have been eyeballing this game for a bit now, and am almost ready to pull the trigger on it, any opinions would be appreciated!

Asus TUF fx506l Linux recommendations for gaming? (lemmy.world)

Basically title. I saw a few reddit threads with this piece but wanted to see if anyone out here had any experience with trying to get Linux set up on this machine.

I'd want to use it for gaming on steam, GOG and emulators. and other stuff like that.

I'm planning on installing on a secondary m.2 drive, and can keep windows for emergencies

Thanks for looking!

Edit:

I've gotten Linux (mxlinix) working on a single ancient HP core 2 duo laptop that seemed to work pretty well considering the machine it was on

Baseline experience with CLI and if copy paste works on the system I can plow through most things.
