Coolercontrol - a GUI to setup fan profiles based on temperature sensors in your system (other than just cpu from the bios) in c/linux_gaming

Been using this since it was called Coolero. It's made big strides and it's become the de-facto fan control GUI at this point. Impressive stuff

Replace Gnome with KDE? (self.pop_os)

submitted 1 year ago by Mann_Servante to c/pop_os

3 comments fedilink

I know I can just install KDE on top of Pop, but in my experience having multiple DE's installed can be rather sloppy through dependencies. So I guess my question is, how feasible is it to remove Gnome from Pop while keeping some of the good bits like the scheduler and other non-Gnome specific things (obviously the tiling extension won't work, for example).

There is a KDE spin of Pop underway but I would prefer to not reinstall from scratch again so soon. It'd be way more convenient to strip as much Gnome deps as I can and replace it with KDE but I'm not sure if that would work out. I'm really looking forward to Cosmic DE but the desire to move away from Gnome grows stronger despite it having some really nice extensions for monitoring hardware use and temps that i'll miss.

it was a problem for me too previously, but I don't think it is anymore, I haven't had it since glorious eggroll updated his wine build a few months back, and I didn't get it using proton today in Steam.

Linux 6.4.6 and Mesa 23.1.3 Released in c/pop_os

[–] Mann_Servante 1 points 1 year ago

Ayo this update fixed my suspend issue. I had a problem where it would restart itself when trying to wake up, or the second monitor would be rotated wrong and opening the display settings would log me out.

I figured it was a GPU driver issue when the logs went on and on about it, but the day I was going to try to manually update to a testing driver, this came out and seems to have totally fixed it.

Mixed refresh rates question in c/linux_gaming

[–] Mann_Servante 2 points 1 year ago

Personally I have never had issues with my monitors having different refresh rates, at least not while using Gnome. Maybe it is more of a X11 KDE issue.
