Hmm, I run an Arc GPU at work without any issues. Just using plain mesa on NixOS. The Intel devs were quite responsive when we ran into issues as well.

mat@linux.communityto Technology@lemmy.world•Blocking real-world ads: is the future here?English10·10 days agoEnjoyed the article but augh that sticky banner at the top that follows as I scroll took up 30% of my reading space. Gave up halfway through to enable reader mode on Firefox mobile…
mat@linux.communityto Linux@programming.dev•Mesa 25.2 RADV Driver Merges Support For AV1 Vulkan Video EncodeEnglish3·10 days agoAwesome! Maybe I can finally switch to using it, though OBS settings are quite confusing.
mat@linux.communityto Linux@programming.dev•I'm on a list somewhere, I can feel itEnglish18·10 days agoomg I totally accidentally enabled this
I’d bother removing it but it’s kinda funny to get an email reprimanding me when I ctrl+c out of a sudo command I mistyped, and maybe it will serve as a warning if it gets compromised :p
mat@linux.communityto Technology@lemmy.world•French city of Lyon ditching Microsoft for FOSSEnglish14·11 days agoBravo la France ! Here’s to hoping more cities follow suit :)
mat@linux.communityto Linux@programming.dev•Writing a basic Linux device driver when you know nothing about Linux drivers or USBEnglish7·16 days agoVery cool! Added the RSS.
mat@linux.communityto Europe@feddit.org•The European Union is under pressure to strike a trade deal with Trump, but an influx of mass-produced, low-quality food must be off the table. English0·16 days agoI actively avoid any and all US products, including food. I hope others do as well. So long as we keep origin attestations, I am not sure they will sell as much as expected.
mat@linux.communityto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•how are my fellow peeps hosting your music collection these days?English3·18 days agoHmm no, I haven’t had this issue. Tempo works fine for me, it’s been mostly bug-free except for a few oversights:
- search doesn’t work offline
- can’t play AAC files
- can’t skip songs via my Pebble watch
I’m (still) on a Pixel 3a, running LineageOS, in case that matters.
mat@linux.communityto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•how are my fellow peeps hosting your music collection these days?English3·18 days agoI did use Feishin for a while, it’s an excellent music player but unfortunately not a native program. I might switch back to it from Tauon though, as actually playing the whole song before going to the next is a pretty nice upgrade hehe
mat@linux.communityto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•how are my fellow peeps hosting your music collection these days?English3·18 days agoIt looks really good indeed, and I don’t mind at all to pay for apps (I pay for FairEmail)… however it is very strange for me to add a nonfree app to the list I use every day… everything else is open source.
mat@linux.communityto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•how are my fellow peeps hosting your music collection these days?English13·18 days agoI currently host Navidrome, which has an okay web player. On Android I use “Tempo” (though it is unmaintained) to connect to it, and on Linux I use Tauon (though it has very poor playback). I could not find a native Linux client that is not buggy unfortunately, so I’m also on the lookout for better solutions! I’m not familiar with the device you are talking about but every client I tried supports MPRIS, which are the regular media controls that can be used via the
playerctl
command, so you should be able to hook things up that way.
mat@linux.communityto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Escape Simulator drops the Linux build to focus on supporting ProtonEnglish0·1 month agoAh, yes… if only. I’ve upgraded internally SLR 1.0 -> SLR 3.0 but we can’t deploy it until a bug is fixed in the Steam client that causes, when we enable SLR 3, all Steam Decks to run the Linux build. Yes, Steam Decks run the Proton version, solely because the save file has different letter casing (yes I know it’s so annoying haha). We’ve spent quite some time on this and there’s no way to fix this without some folks losing their saves, and that is absolutely not an option. Soooo for now desktop Linux is stuck on runtime 1.0, and Steam Deck users are stuck on Proton. “fun” :/
mat@linux.communityto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Escape Simulator drops the Linux build to focus on supporting ProtonEnglish0·1 month agoAt my studio we maintain a native Linux version with a custom game engine, and it indeed takes a lot of time. I don’t consider Proton a viable option as we lost the ability to integrate with Linux-specific stuff such as Wayland APIs or better input, but I can definitely see the appeal of switching to Proton… if your team uses Windows. If you have some developers on Linux, you naturally get a Linux build (if using cross platform APIs ofc) and it’s actually faster to cross-compile a Windows build every once in a while (skip the slow ntfs I/O) and ship that. But it requires getting more of the team on Linux :)
mat@linux.communityOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Student dorm does not allow wifi routersEnglish1·10 months agoMy router is an Archer C6 from TP-Link. I’ve never used OpenWrt, but I have used Linux on my laptop & server for many years. Is this worth looking into/possible without any prior networking knowledge?
mat@linux.communityOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Student dorm does not allow wifi routersEnglish1·10 months agoYeah, the interference argument is fair, but I think this is also the ISP (totally separate third party) trying to protect the paid plans they sell for connecting more than one device…
mat@linux.communityOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Student dorm does not allow wifi routersEnglish1·10 months agoThat’s good advice, however this dorm is not part of my uni (just a partner to provide housing) and the internet provider whose T&C I’m expected to accept and sign up for 1y of are a totally separate legal entity, that has a bunch of upsells for stuff like “connect more than 1 device” (which my router/AP would basically be bypassing, and I think that’s what these clauses are about). About the interference, is it possible to limit it severely while still having a reliable connection just within my room? I only really want to connect:
- Laptop (wired)
- Phone
- VR for streaming from laptop
mat@linux.communityto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•A new home and license (AGPL) for Synapse and friendsEnglish0·2 years agoI really, really hope this leads to development of data portability/server migration options. When I set my homeserver up, I chose Synapse as I didn’t know about the other servers. Now that I do, and would like to switch away because of Synapse’s performance problems and the new CLA stuff, I realize I and all my users are fully locked in, and would have to start from scratch (lose all chats, profiles, etc) to migrate.
Happened to me too, I was so confused. I hope it is a bug… EDIT: Found the report: https://gitlab.com/relan/fennecbuild/-/issues?show=eyJpaWQiOiIxMjAiLCJmdWxsX3BhdGgiOiJyZWxhbi9mZW5uZWNidWlsZCIsImlkIjoxNjk5MTU5NTd9
