If you are up to date on Arch, then this was fixed in an update for you.
As it’s running Ubuntu you could provide your IT department with the logs from the crashes, so they can see there is a problem.
If they provided the Ubuntu install it’s their job to support it.
Fedora 38 reached end of support in May. So even if you could find an ISO of it, it is not supported at all anymore.
Are you using the default Breeze theme?
I’ve heard such issues can arise with 3rd party themes, so I just stick to Breeze. I’m using Breeze Dark and I have not seen this issue on Plasma 6.1.
Nice. Good fixes all around. :)
ETA: how do I install rpm fusion repos on debian? I only found instructions for fedora and rhel https://rpmfusion.org/Configuration
You don’t. rpmfusion is a repo for rpm based distributions. Debian is not rpm based, but deb based. There might be PPA’s for Debian instead.
Yep. When there is no real description other than a link and a headline I put in about as much effort as the poster.
My knowledge of RISC-V is limited, but wouldn’t such a replacement degrade performance of the laptop to a crawl, since risc-v is still not great on that?
I’ve used btrfs-autosnap for a while on Arch and it’s brilliant. Whenever you install or remove something with pacman it creates a btrfs snapshot of your subvolumes and if you have grub-btrfs install too they get added to Grub menu. Very handy.
You can define which subvolumes you want snapshotted and how many snapshots of each you want to keep. Which means it also removes the oldest snapshot when a new is created if it gets over the keep amount.
I think there are som non-free firmware stuff included in most distros.
My wife uses Linux and barely touches the CLI. And when she does, she is only running 1 or 2 specific commands I found for her, that are tied to her needs. But, her main computing device is her phone, so the laptop only gets use a couple of times a month.
Windows (up until windows 8 came out) -> Ubuntu for about a year -> Manjaro for about 6 years -> Arch so far for 2 years.
I do hope a proper heads-up was giving to developers of the projects before this article went live, so the developers had time to address the issues.
I’ve heard good things about RustDesk. Very similar to TeamViewer.
It’s a good way of solving it. It’s not scriptable though as it requires user-input.
My priority is: Official repo, AUR then Flatpak.
No matter what license it is. Although, if I need microsoft stuff I usually go flatpak there, so it’s sealed off.
Nonfree software does not have the ability to be rebuilt on each update anyway, since it’s distributed as pre-built binaries. So they won’t build anyway.
I tend to use AUR packages where possible if the package is not in the official repos. Only if the AUR package is broken do I turn to flatpaks.
For me, KRunner has some quick actions for certain applications that I use a lot. Like a quick connect to a VPN service.
What GPU and driver are you using? Looks gpu driver related to me.
