Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Also, I use two monitors with different refresh rates on Mint / Cinnamon / Xorg and it's more than fine. I think you only need Wayland for variable refresh rate. But two static refresh rates seem to work just fine on X.

    Damn, my camouflage didn't work.

    They are actually running in different refresh rates? The default is to cap the better monitor in the lower refresh rate. If I accept that it is fine to me as well. If I try to force different refresh rates on kwin , my games run with so much tearing, even with vsync on.

    I honestly wouldn't know. One is a 60 Hz TV and the other a 75 Hz office monitor. My son loves to play steam games on the monitor. The graphic configuration tool says the monitors are at that frequency and I can see other frequencies they could operate.

    I don't know how to check the actual refresh rate though.

    No but if you can't tell they are both working at the same rate it must work well enough for you not to care.
