Anyone else having the problem with the new kernel that graphics in games/benchmarks is quite a lot slower (about 15-20%) then with older kernel (I used 6.10.7 before I upgraded). This is with Powercolor Hellhound AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE? Even Einstein@Home GPU tasks take about 20% longer now (28 min with previous kernel to about 34 min now).
Nope. here it is about the good DRM: Direct Rendering Manager
4·2 months agoIt’s the heavy graphics used which looks like it uses WebGL and this is disabled in LibreWolf since it can easily be used for fingerprinting a user. It would be great if they could not use such heavy graphics if WebGL is not supported and just used simple static image or something like that. Well it would be great in general not just for privacy reasons.

Yeah I am so glad I switched to GNU/Linux years ago, Have to keep supporting closed OSes at work with our software and with each release they are just getting worse and worse, while GNU/Linux just keeps getting better.

Yup still exists. It is also available in KDE Help Center. And you can quickly jump to a man page you typing “#man” into KRunner.
Yup I agree, openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE Plasma desktop is just awesome. my favourite distro at this moment,
Bash is my favourite one, second to it being Fish
Yeah the driver supporting LEDs and exposing them should be installed. The exposed LEDs can be found in
/sys/class/leds/<device>/multi_[index|intensity], See Linux kernel documentation for details: LED handling under Linux and Multicolor LED handling under Linux
One way of greatly improving ROCm installation process would be to use the Open Build Service which allows to use the single spec file to produce packages for many supported GNU/Linux distributions and versions of them. I opened a feature request about this.
Most of them are C++/Qt there is also a lot of QtQuick/QML code which can do a lot and is very similar to ECMAScript, so maybe that would be a great start for someone coming from webdev.
My friend has one (if I remember it it a Slimbook or Tuxedo laptop) and as far as he told me it is flawless (well almost). My next laptop will for sure be a KDE CPU+GPU one. I hear good things about the combo and if it is any similar to desktop AMD GPU support I will be happy.
No wonder. all GAFAM is a spyware surveillance capitalism mafia and they work together. If you really want to THINK different you need to look into libre and opensource software like GNU/Linux and the likes.
You can also watch it on official KDE Peertube server, also with fully respecting privacy https://tube.kockatoo.org/w/e6e8f177-22f1-432a-9c7f-ab76b17a5b54
GNU/Linux only, with KDE Plasma for desktop as possible. Using it on work laptop (Kubuntu), home laptop (openSUSE Tumbleweed), PC (openSUSE Tumbleweed, also used for gaming), Steam Deck (Arch-based SteamOS). I don’t use spyware/adware so Windows is out of question for me. Also it is not free as in freedom and opensource.
