You can buy a external AR9271 WiFi adapter for $20 thats fully free software/free firmware.

I always thought the GNOME icon was a indirect meme about Richard Stallman eating something from his toe

We’re you using the correct drivers for your graphics card?

I have been actively using GNOME for about a year now, honestly, it is the best one out of all of the desktop enviorments availible right now. I’m also pretty sure GNOME just got $1M+ to continue working on it. I don’t mind the look, it is very simple.

I feel the same way sometimes. I’m a centrist as well, a lot of the people on both sidee in this platform do have extreme takes and have the “You must agree with me or I will ban you” attitude. I wish it was a bit more diverse, whenever I come on Lemmy it is completely saturated with leftists post. I have nothing against people on the left, its just the fact that content is so obviously saturated with it.

I think its because we aren’t allowed by default to post images, which I completely understand after what happened back a couple months ago. I’ve been using Lemmy for more then 4 months actively but yet I still don’t have permission to post pictures because of the fact that I’m too lazy to even try to get it enabled. This is a major reason why we aren’t seeing a lot of content.

Also, this tends to be mostly a leftist leaning app, so maybe some people get drawn away.

I understand your frustration, and I’ll try to provide a solution that’s as straightforward as possible. While Linux offers a lot of customization and power, it can sometimes require more technical effort for specific tasks like controller setup.

1. Checking Compatibility: First, let’s ensure your Xbox controller is compatible with Linux Mint. Most Xbox controllers should work well, but it’s good to verify.

2. Configuration: Linux Mint typically uses the XInput system for game controllers. Sometimes, extra configuration is needed to get controllers working smoothly.

3. Reboot: It’s a simple step, but sometimes restarting your computer can help resolve hardware recognition issues.

4. Updates: Make sure your system and packages are up to date. Open a terminal and run:

   sudo apt update
   sudo apt upgrade
   

5. Install “xboxdrv”: If the built-in driver isn’t working as expected, you can try installing the “xboxdrv” package, which can provide better controller compatibility. Run:

   sudo apt install xboxdrv
   

6. Calibration: After installing xboxdrv, you can calibrate your controller by running:

   sudo xboxdrv --detach-kernel-driver --silent
   

   This command should help with controller recognition.

7. CMake and Driver Compilation (if needed): If the previous steps don’t resolve the issue and you’re instructed to compile a controller driver using CMake, follow these additional steps:

   • Cloning the Repository: Use the git command to clone the controller driver repository from Git. Replace `` with the actual URL of the repository:

     git clone https://www.yourwebsite.com
     

   • Compiling the Software: Navigate to the cloned repository folder using the terminal. Create a build directory:

     mkdir build
     cd build
     

     Generate the build files with CMake:

     cmake ..
     

     Build the software:

     make
     

   • Installation: After successfully building the software, you may need to install it. This can usually be done with the following command:

     sudo make install
     

8. Browser Game Stream: If you’re using a web browser for Xbox game streaming, ensure you’re using a browser that fully supports it. Google Chrome is a good choice for this.

9. Test: Finally, test your controller in a web-based game streaming service like Xbox Cloud Gaming to see if it works as expected.

If these steps don’t resolve the issue, please provide more details about your system, controller model, and any error messages you encounter during the process. I’ll do my best to assist you further.

Rioting is not what we need, what we need to learn is to get along with each other, more violence will only divide us further. What is this Nazi takeover you’re refferring to? Should we just destroy everything whenever someting bad happens?

You sound crazy.

About to watch Revolution OS right now.

Tbh, I haven’t experienced too many issues other then modifying a couple prgrams to be compatible with OpenRC. On my main desktop I use Debian 12 and Systemd with my 2080 SUPER and haven’t encountered any issues.

Although, when I tried to install the open kernel version of the NVIDIA driver, my system didn’t like it, so I ended up installing the full proprietary driver and it works well. Will be switching to AMD once I need to buy another graphics card.

(I use Gnome as my DE with two 1440p 144hz monitors)

I use Debian with the Linux-libre kernel and OpenRC, relatively the same experience but without the AUR.

Could you ask ChatGPT yet to reformat it for LibreOffice?

I’ve never had a virus on Linux. How is Windows more secure?

Also, I have the same type of setup, make sure you have the right display driver installed for your graphics card.

Debian is very stable, and its also pretty easy to update and have long term stability. You can just click a button to update or have it automated. If all they’re doing is browsing, Debian should be sufficent, plus, it’s free.

Damn, I would be hoping it would be more inclined to using Linux in the field but who knows, maybe I might find a company that values it and utilizes it daily. I could utilize Windows 10/11 in a VM, which I would be fine using for work purposes. I wish more people would learn how to use Linux. It takes awhile but once you know how to use it, its so much better imo.
