Lawnchair 14 is latest, not on Play Store, think only via their website/github? Idr

It's part of the never ending death march of every decent Google product.

First it's a name change, then they'll tweak a core functionality so it's really really helpful, then they'll either kill it immediately or move it into another package (thus fracturing older apps and devices from the functionality completely), then they pay wall it or kill it abruptly.

As a young tech trying to get started, Knoppix live CD enabled me to clean viruses and recover data for clients.

After years of using it as a specific tool, I decided to daily drive it when an older machine stopped accepting Windows Updates.

I still run Windows on my big rig, but Debian on everything Else.

Found you via the other site, stumbled across this post over here.

Where is a central location to report feedback and bugs?

I've got 3 devices running it now, A10 Moto G7power, A11/oos11 OnePlus N10, A12/oos12 OnePlus N20. Things aren't identical between them... Like status bar text color... Dark mode affecting labels...

And I bumped my screen size to show more stuff, and the launcher appears to have totally reset itself. Widget stacks gone. All home screen items gone. And dock resized icons and amount shown... But at least it kept my icons on it.

I'm very happy to see this launcher see the light of day...

I have no idea what issues you are already aware of.

Happy to help, just tell me how.

SuperDiskβ„’? 😏

Wayland is default on Gnome.

Snaps definitely are slower to open. One they get going, they are fine.

But a little slow to load...

I found a web site, biosbug.com, and was able to generate an unlock code.

Yeah, really looks like I ought to do a clean install I think.

The system takes forever to boot, but it's pretty responsive after...

I appreciate the help and info greatly. I'll eventually get it right! πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

The machine is an Acer Spin3, 7th gen Intel, 12Gigs RAM, Intel gfx

Yeah... I'm thinking the SSD is the route... fresh install...

Your comment about Wi-Fi and net install... yeah... I was assuming my phone set to USB share would work OOTB... probably won't though, eh?

I think I'll snag the Gnome install media and just stick with that.

Currently, this system is running very decent. At least as well as it did brand new with original software... except the boot times...

If I go the SSD route, the drive can be left as is in case I totally screw up. I can use the same enclosure from the SSD on the HDD.

MetroPCS in southern US has same "issues", running on T-Mobile. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ I've bounced between the two services enough times to understand the difference.

Spring Break here.... Only T-Mobile customers get usable and consistent data.

Yeah, if I had a Pixel or something, sure.

But I haven't found anything for my OnePlus N10...

Dead dirt. No nutrients. Would be like you trying to eat the dirt, to the plants you try to plant.

Useless, gritty, and harmful.

Been using Series Guide for years. Love it.

I didn't think I had anything held... 🫣

Strange thing is all I've ever done is install:

XFCE

Gnome

Firefox was here ootb

And...

an XFCE plugin, docklike taskbar I compiled from source

Scrcpy, android screen mirror I compiled from source

Picom, compositor I compiled from source

Flatpack support, for openRCT

A few themes from internet

One thing I did notice is the Updater in Gnome always sees updates Synaptic doesn't see. Even now... weird...

On the updated system, running Gnome, it still happens. In addition, installing extensions from Synaptic results in them never appearing (but reported as installed). I have switched to using Extension Manager from Synaptic, and it is able to install extensions properly (they can be used)

I don't really know much about Linux, which is why I have it on this system... to hopefully gain enough knowledge to be completely comfortable with it. So it is very likely I have inadvertently created a Frankbian 😒

Guess I was looking for confirmation

HP Envy 17

I switched to proton 6.x and dx10 and now it's running 😎

Just can't change any of the graphic settings without it crashing.

Running at 1280x720 at 60fps

All lowest settings though. Good enough.

If it uses diagonal swipes on the keys to do that, might be unexpected keyboard...

^5 Unexpected Keyboard!! <3 it

It identifies and loads up the interface.

One process, Xorg @ 4MiB

I've got the right click to use card menu, and use that to force flatpak Steam to use it. Then I confirm in game it is selected.

It feels like a huge step down from Intel gfx on an older laptop running Windows...

Email. That helped immensely.

Gmail can mail Yahoo, but Yahoo can't directly see my Gmail account name, unless we directly interact first.

I think that sums it up.

So I can use either "CLIENT" to communicate across the Fediverse, but my credentials only work on the server I created them at.

I think I got it. I'm watch the link laterπŸ‘

Yes, you got it.

Awesome πŸ‘

Aw, I'm looking for a OnePlus N10 or N20 ROM πŸ˜“

I would like to respectfully request a way to backup layouts and restore them independent of current layout density.

I tweak my screen "size" often (slider in Settings), and would really use this feature.

30

on both

currently A12, shipped A11

currently A11, shipped A10

Raises hand in cheap but very usable hardware that only gets one major update

I see my N10 there πŸ‘

Finally something to play with! Tyvm

I've not been able to get the built in gsi loader to ever work, not even with an app.

From what I understand, 1+ is not doing something the expected way... Idk.

I still need to find TWRP and to backup stock partitions first.

DSU, do you have a OnePlus N10 or N20? It does not work. If it works on your OnePlus, please provide the extra/special steps you took other than tapping the app and selecting a gsi, then rebooting. Nothing happens on boot. No gsi. Just boots normally.

I'll get back to you. Busy atm, but definitely want to sort this out.

Which is ridiculous. Can't audit code.

Easy way to get accounts stolen, too.

My isp blocked that link. Never saw it. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Oh man... Why... Arg

I do actually have an account there. How could I go about completely removing it?

And I need to look into Matrix... Totally clueless.

While you were typing this, I found another post by another user to the same document.

Mastodon isn't Lemmy, is it? πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

I found a link to a mastodon thread... And upon much closer inspection, I do believe that's you over there, too.

I'm apparently very ignorant on this. Lemmy... Mastodon... Matrix...

Are you serious? πŸ˜³πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜“

I was on Mastodon originally, but the app I was beta testing was a Lemmy client, so I made a new account (my Mastodon creds didn't work)

Methinks I should find a new app. Arg.

So Lemmy and Mastodon connect to the same content, but different log in servers?

Do I need to do anything to see those other people?

Oh boy, I've got a lot to learn.

I dunno...

But I switched to proton 6.x and dx10 and now it's running, even if it crashes trying to change the settings.

Now I've got to figure out installing mods for single player... Using flatpak...

Is it really that simple? I haven't ROMd in 5yrs/since A/B partitioning.

GApps incl?

I've clearly broken something then, because after removing my media files... the install is over 200gigs.

I'm brand new to Gnome; I thought you could freely add Desktop Environments without conflict? I've since removed XFCE and am all in on Wayland... I think? Is Wayland the same as XWayland? πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

If I install Gnome cleanly, will it still install and use Wayland?

And I discovered my BIOS is password protected 🫣 and I can't remember it 😒
