i think this is it.

You’re missing the value for the arch option, probably mistyped a command or smth when were generating this file from the github instructions from here.

Yet another linux (or I guess fedora? I don’t know if that’s currently present in other distributions) problem that’s starting to get in my nerves: with the recent 566 and now the 570 drivers from nvidia, it seems there’s some issue going on with games where at about an hour or so of me playing any game, I’ll experience heavy stuttering specifically when I move my mouse in-game. I’ve no idea what’s causing it, but I know it’s not game-specific because both elder scrolls online and marvel rivals have said issue. Changing to the open kernel modules seems to delay the issue but doesn’t solve it.
AFAIK that’s a known issue with the nvidia drivers.
Pray to Lord Jensen.

Guess I’ll be playing my games on the windows side until further notice then…
You can try disabling explicit sync if it’s enabled (and it is by default IIRC).
Might help, might not, but it’s worth a try.

after not using my manjaro install for a few weeks I’m now stuck in what I believe is dependency hell and I have no idea what to do to get out of it. haven’t been able to find a solution by looking it up.
for using pacman GUI I get a pop up with this message
- removing lib32-libffi breaks dependency ‘lib32-libffi’ required by lib32-glib2
- removing lib32-pcre2 breaks dependency ‘lib32-pcre2’ required by lib32-glib2
- removing lib32-libffi breaks dependency ‘libffi.so=8-32’ required by lib32-glib2
and running Sudo pacman -Syu returns with
:: Synchronizing package databases…
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community.db failed to download
error: failed retrieving file ‘community.db’ from mirrors2.manjaro.org : The requested URL returned error: 404

error: failed retrieving file ‘community.db’ from mirrors.manjaro.org : The requested URL returned error: 404

any idea where to go from here?
Yes, the community repos has beed deprecated for a long time, and now are gone

thanks, not sure how much that helped. since just editing the pacman.conf didn’t work I look around again and updated the pacman mirrors and it then worked. I still get a few errors whilre running pacman -Syu regarding the ‘community.db’, but at least it’s updating now.
My issue is hardware related, I picked up an asus Strix X870-I Gaming wifi motherboard and the wifi chip is not supported in Vanilla Arch, CachyOS or Garuda. since I am not able to use wifi, I can’t connect to my ISP’s router which is in another room and I am not able to run an ethernet cable from that room to the room my PC is in. I was wondering if anyone has found a way to get the Mediatek wifi 7 chip working in Linux?
+++++++++
I keep a couple old Wi-Fi routers around that can be reconfigured to act as Wi-Fi client bridges if needed.
Some manufacturers include that as a feature in their firmware, but more often flashing OpenWrt firmware is required:
Should be able to pick something up for $20.
I’m running Kubuntu 24.04 and want to switch to Wayland for good.
I installed it and can switch on the login screen, but I have it set to automatically log me in and the default seems to be X11. So I have to log out and switch to Wayland on each reboot.
Is there a way to default to Wayland aside from updating to 24.10 (which has Wayland as default)?
I am not on KDE but maybe this helps …

It did help… indirectly. While checking the linked thread, it occurred to me to check in the settings again. I did search for “Wayland” before (which didn’t help) but this time I searched manually and found this:
It was set to X11 of course, but I switched it and it does work, so thanks for getting me towards the solution, even though it was quite different

Well I do not have a KDE system here so I was unable to check but in the end we got there. Nice!
The thing to do is search the web for the lspci (or dmesg) output for that device. That’s a lot more likely to help, than looking for others with that exact motherboard and some unknown/unspecified Wi-Fi chipset. I’ve had times where I found someone was developing a driver on github, and others where I located instructions on adding the new device name/ID to an existing driver…
If you don’t, there’s always the Wi-Fi client/bridge ethernet option, or a cheap USB Wi-Fi dongle. Just because it’s built-in doesn’t mean you have to use it…
Or you could replace the built-in mediatek m.2 wifi card with something that’s supported in the mainline kernel, like an intel AX200

It should “just work” but if you’re facing issues my shot-in-the-dark hunch is that you should disable fast-startup in windows settings (old control panel → power options → choose what the power buttons do → uncheck fast startup option) and another could be if you have bitlocker enabled linux cant read it.
So I just deleted a 250-ish gig directory off an old NTFS drive with Dolphin (KDE file manager), since I moved the files to my NAS. During the deletion it errored out that it couldn’t delete some files. So far so good.
Tried it in the terminal too, but I’m getting I/O errors:
rm -rf _HDD_backup/
rm: cannot remove '_HDD_backup/musik_video/Musik/_unsorted sampler/01 Hero'\''s Come Back!! - nobodyknows+.mp3': Input/output error
In Dolphin, those directories are now empty, however in ls they show both an error as well as the filelisting:
$ pwd && ls
/run/media/tarulia/Daten/Eigene Dateien/Robin/Music/_HDD_backup/musik_video/Musik/_unsorted sampler
ls: cannot access '01 Hero'\''s Come Back!! - nobodyknows+.mp3': Input/output error
'01 Hero'\''s Come Back!! - nobodyknows+.mp3'
(also not sure why I can’t grep for that error even with 2>&1 
Anyway, thinking back that I had issues with NTFS before I tried this:
sudo ntfsck /dev/sdb3

But the issue remains… any ideas?
On an entirely different note, I just got another drive out of storage that I haven’t used in… forever, but both lsblk as well as the KDE Partition Manager are showing it as 128 PiB? Does that mean the drive is just toast?
It would be nice to have that kinda storage on a drive from 2010 cause I could use some space right now lol
On the drive with the stuck mp3 files … is there anything else on the drive that you want to keep? If not format the drive as ext4 and have yourself some free storage!
