Are there any guides for doing this? I can't seem to find any, and I have zero experience with Proxmox

 

Hello y'all!

I'm trying to launch the game Star Citizen, and I get the error below:

Assersion failed!

Program: C:\windows\system32\winevulkan\vulkan.dll
File: ../dlls/winevulkan/loader.c
Line: 664

Expression: !status

For information on how your program can cause an assertion failure, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts

(Press Retry to debug the application - JTT must be enabled)

I have three options:

  • Abort, which brings me back to the launcher and asks if I want to retry launch or verify the game files
  • Retry, which encounters the same error again
  • Ignore, which closes the window, but the game does not start despite the launcher stating that the game is running

Distro: EndeavorOS CPU: Ryzen 9 5900X RAM: 64GB GPU: Two Identical RTX 3060s

I currently have the PC configured for multiseat, where the system has two RTX 3060s, and two monitors/sets of peripherals. I used loginctl to assign seats.

I have two separate installs of the game, both in the default install location (/home/user/Games), for both myself and the second user on the system (for two simultaneous logins).

Wenever I open Lutris and go to system options, the Vulkan ICD loader dropdown menu only shows "Unspecified: Not Found (default)", and "Nvidia Proprietary: Not Found"

I tried this previously with Kubuntu, and I got the same error, but only on seat0. The game launched and ran fine on seat1. When checking the system settings in Lutris, it showed one selection for one of the RTX 3060s on both users.

Would it be possible to also add the "Hide previous posts" button in post options as well?

IXION is definitely mine. If you skip through that video a bit, you can hear some more music when the Prologue begins to play. Such an amazing game!

I wish so badly that this would come to the US... I have so many games I never play that I wish I could sell off

Edit: nevermind, guess it's not real... sad

Not only for saving money, as when we upgrade the PC, I'm going to be able to sell off most of the components that get replaced, but space savings is also a big part of it. We're going to be buying an RV to live full time in soon, and the less space it takes up, the better.

Plus, we have used it in this configuration for almost two years now, and it has worked without issue (EasyAntiCheat doesn't play nice, but we don't play many games that use it anyway). And honestly at this point, I kind of enjoy the challenge lol

 

I currently have a PC running Windows 11 that my S/O and I use multi-seated with Aster Multiseat. However, we're both equally sick of Windows and are interested in switching to Linux.

However, all the information that I can find on multiseat in Linux are forum posts and unfinished wiki entries for Ubuntu and Fedora, and they all seem to be from around 2008-2012.

We're about to upgrade our PC to support two RTX 3060s and a Ryzen 9 (of course, including the usual two monitors and sets of peripherals).

Can Linux (preferably Fedora, as it's my favorite distro so far) easily support multiseating?

Will there be any performance issues using this method?

Is it possible to isolate applications per user? (Aster Multiseat doesn't do this, so sometimes an application can detect another instance on the other user and refuses to start...)

Thanks in advance.

Never played Watch Dogs, but that sounds like an absolutely amazing feature. It seems like a missed opportunity, especially since not only is there an AI cab company in the game, but you literally receive one of the cabs during the related quest line. It seems glaringly obvious, yet to this day, is still a massive oversight.

There's a really nice mod on Nexus that allows you to hold the "R" key to dismiss your car, allowing it to drive off by itself just as it pulls up when you request it, and I find it so immersive. If the cars can fully drive themselves, then why can't they be your automated valet?

Can this be done with an ISP that gives you a dynamic IP? I have a domain through Google Domains, I just have no idea how to set it up for Jellyfin

The PSU is currently being shipped, and the Amazon listing doesn't say whether those ones are included or not, so I wasn't sure (it only specifies the braided cables that are built in I think, which obviously). I can't seem to find the be quiet! cables anywhere but Amazon, and after purchasing them I got a message from the seller stating they were sold out.

I had not considered the cables would come with the PSU, however if they do, then I suppose I won't have any issues.

Edit: Nevermind. I looked at the Amazon listing again, and one of the images included is a diagram showing the cables that are included... duh, but I wish it was also included in the description...

 

I need to know what both the connectors are for this power supply, and if possible what to search for when I am looking up cables.

The cables from be quiet! are in the links below, however they are out of stock when I try to order them.

PCIe Connector

SATA Drive Connector

I didn't mean to undermine him in any way, I just opened up Lemmy and noticed a lot of posts that were negative about him. I wanted to understand why, and what better way to figure that out than asking directly?

Who is Henry Kissinger? (self.outoftheloop)

As the title says, who is Henry Kissinger?

I read this from Wikipedia:

"Kissinger pioneered the policy of dΓ©tente with the Soviet Union, orchestrated an opening of relations with China, engaged in what became known as shuttle diplomacy in the Middle East to end the Yom Kippur War, and negotiated the Paris Peace Accords, which ended American involvement in the Vietnam War. He has also been associated with controversial policies, such as the U.S. bombing of Cambodia during the Vietnam War, U.S. involvement in the 1973 Chilean military coup, a "green light" to Argentina's military junta for their Dirty War, and U.S. support for Pakistan during the Bangladesh Liberation War despite a genocide being perpetrated by Pakistan."

It sounds like he was a bad guy, but I know there's more to the story than that with the collective hate I see for him here on Lemmy.

Sooo... don't buy a Pixel 8 because of a design flaw is what I'm hearing? Thanks for responding, Google.

I know Lemmy doesn't come with the ability to follow individual users, but the ability to do so client-side would be really nice.

Of course, this app is amazing as it is, and I'm super excited to follow its development. Thank you Mayayo!
