I’m one of those weirdos that never thought the screen looked bad to begin with. I’m interested in the upgrade of course, but I can give it another year. The software upgrades alone make it feel like I’m running a new Steam Deck compared to when I got it 1.5 years ago.

I was using Pop_OS for a while, but I’ve recently been playing with EndevourOS again the past few months.

Things really move fast in AI, huh

It was back working until a few days ago. I have faith they’ll figure out a solution

Wow, thanks. Testing this now

In my experience using something like

export KWIN_X11_NO_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=1

export KWIN_X11_REFRESH_RATE=144000

export KWIN_X11_FORCE_SOFTWARE_VSYNC=1

would basically work in allowing the 60hz lock released from the 144hz main display, but it would still introduce tearing, especially on the secondary 60hz display.

With Wayland it’s an out of the box, tear free experience which is what I’m referring to.

Yeah,performance overhead aside, in Windows it reads and writes fine because of that. Anything thqt changes in Windows however will write the uid of that file as the windows SID I believe, either way I was using regularly the chown -Rf commands to reclaim files back in Linux.

It’s mostly a problem with how steam handles updates downloading to temp folders, etc… It’s the sharing of steam libraries that this happens to most often if you’re back and forth between os’s

That’s the NTFS3 driver for you. Corrupter of partitions… I had so many hassles, and it’s still happening to others recently, I don’t know why that thing is included honestly.

I was doing the same with winbtrfs, and it’s pretty good overall but kind of a mixed bag sometimes. The biggest pain is file permissions since winbtrfs isn’t sane and use something like uid 1000. So when you write or alter files or you’ll get file permissions errors on the Linux side. It’s workable just changing the permissions back when in Linux if that happens

I’m doing my part.

Yes, it lists all the games just like it does with Epic and GOG. You can sort, search, and filter into one big library also.

There’s a lot of QoL stuff, and the dialog is all fully voice acted so the emphasis is really more on exploring the world and story.

I’ve been playing it at my own pace for years, and never worry much about what level I’m at or things like that

You still need to buy the client and the expansions you want to play, but not required to pay monthly like some other MMOs

Definitely. I have a pair of pixel buds that give me very noticeable latency when paired in Windows. I’ve never been able to find a way to use the low latency codecs to fix this.

In Linux it’s a complete opposite experience. I have a menu with every codec in the book, and I can actually watch video in Linux without even noticing any latency now.
