Nope

Tried nobara, broke my PC somehow lol. Can't install an os on any drive even after formatting them

Well I broke my computer. Lol Been trying to get any os back on it for like 5 hours now

flash complete, installing now

Yo it has the res setting I was trying to get out of the box on the live disk, heck yeah

https://askubuntu.com/questions/330293/how-do-i-set-a-monitor-resolution-that-is-not-available-in-the-display-settings

Most "user error" caveat possible here, I stopped after step 5 and before step 6 cause it seemed to just put me back into 1080p at 120hz when I tried to go from 2160 30hz to 60hz.

Also I tried using the display config but the native res at 60hz isn't available (max 30) and no 1440p is available double checks that display config in system setting sis the same as the shortcut in right click desktop Yeah I tried the right thing, just doesn't have the option. Windows 10 and 11 do.

Edit: Live disk of Nobura has the res setting I want, just installing that

I'm running Plasma X11. Xrandr let me add a custom res/refresh setting it just didn't actually do the thing. I thought it did cause the refresh went up but I think it jsut put me on 1080p instead? Should prolly try following the guide from the beginning again, maybe I just had a typo or skipped step I missed.

Yeah sure why not - I'll grab the official and see how that theme of KDE is cause I can just swap to regular if I don't like the tweaks. Also I have a Steam deck, the idea of linux by way of GE is appealing. If Steam's wasn't locked down I'd be in favour of just using the deck's distro for desktop. I assume they have one but have had issues with that protect me from myself not letting me install things heh.

followed a guide to add it in xrandr - no idea what I'm doing but seems to work fine cause 30 vs 60 is real obvious on desktop, mouse isn't in soup, it worked, maybe.

Edit: It did not

People listen to that? Why?

Currently playing with the PopOS install actually - trying to figure out if I just can't have 60hz 3840x2160 (highest listed is 30hz) or 1440p at all (not listed) or if there's a thing I need to do to get those visible in linux. Cause they're options for this tv I'm using as a monitor in Windows.

Also just finished getting a graphic boot manager (refind I think it was) and a dark mode theme for it, classy n.n.

Oh neat, thanks.

I have no idea what that means
