I don't see a setting in Signal for quick replies, but when I tap the text box to write a message in Signal, I keep getting a "quick reply" shortcut hovering, with the app logo, "Why?", and an X to close it.

Is this a Signal feature or Android 15 reading the text and generating a potential reply? It's not my keyboard (Unexpected Keyboard) as far as I can tell, haven't seen this pop up in any other text entry field yet.

I saw another complaint of "too tall" errors on images, I'm missing quite a few images with "too wide" error. Not sure what's up with the proxy but that's how the link shows in Jerboa app on Android. Open in web browser and I see the error:

{"code":"validate-width","msg":"Too wide"}

~~Other issue is the word r-tard being censored to blank space. I don't like it either, having a severely handicapped family member, but I can't downvote the (mis)user if I can't see them using the word. Not sure if that one is on our end...~~ (Not the fault of this instance!)

Thanks for the wonderful "liberal troll" instance! You're doing good if Lemmygrad is mad. 😂

I need to add a boot delay to these systems. Successfully used bcdedit.exe /timeout 60 which is also showing in msconfig, but the system seems to be ignoring the setting; I never see the countdown and the system boots normally.

Thanks for any input.

[SOLVED] Vizio TV owners: You may need to manually turn on "Full HD Color" to get 4K@60Hz resolutions available! Oddly, this wasn't necessary for X11-based distros tested, but was required for Wayland-based distros tested...

Menu > Input Settings > HDMI-1 > Full UHD Color. It defaults to Off for some reason. 🤦‍♂️

When I was on Debian Bookworm and X11, I could only get 4K video at 30Hz from my GTX 980 Ti. I eventually upgraded from the HDMI cable that came with the 4K Vizio TV to a good brand HDMI 2.1 cable, then both [email protected] and [email protected] were available and working. (I think 3840 is the TV's native, there were more artifacts on text at 4096.)

I had some issues with Wine games on Debian that I couldn't figure out, and wanted to try some newer/different software, so I went distro-hopping. On both Nobara and currently EndeavourOS, both with KDE and Wayland, I'm back to only having 4K@30Hz available.

Edit: One strange detail I just remembered: Normally, the TV identifies itself as Vizio 55", but when I set [email protected] in Debian, it identified as Vizio 11". Some kind of EDID workaround? I didn't have to do anything special, just install nvidia-driver and replace the cable.

I've only been able to find people with the opposite problem, where they can get 4K on Wayland but not on X11.

Any advice is welcome. Thanks!

Update: I was able to induce this behavior to at least have a lead, on EndeavourOS (Arch btw) with KDE.

KDE System Settings -> Display & Monitor -> Screen tearing: Allow in fullscreen windows. Enabled by default. If disabled, I see exactly the same video pauses, on both fullscreen and windowed wine/proton-ge games.

Original post: How do I even begin to troubleshoot this?

Steam games work fine. Linux-native games work fine. In Wine games, the game video seems to pause for 1.5s, then plays for 2.5s. Audio is unaffected. It seems like the frames are lagged, not lost; when video resumes, the "missing" frames play back very quickly, like the video is "catching up". This happens even in the games' launcher windows before 3D rendering or GPU load occurs. Mouse pointer does not lag or pause.

This happens in both wine-ge 8.26 and WineHQ Staging 9.22.

The weirdest thing is that without changing any settings, the same games will run fine about 1 out of 20 launches.

Thanks for any input.

The money you put into a slot machine is certainly captical.

Just felt like posting here since no one else will! Don't tell me to go to Discord... The UI enrages me like no other.

I'm newish, started with Nobara 39, did a fresh install of 40 after upgrade had dependency problems with wine-staging64 and one other (k5s-something? Sorry). I want to like this distro... Some observations:

The live environment is allowed to suspend the PC during the install process!

Discover Software Center seems to be gone and I can't install it; I get a notification: "Plasma Workspace / Could not read file appstream://org.kde.discover.desktop."

There is Nobara Package Manager, a huge list with checkboxes down the left that need to be individually clicked; right-click and Select all doesn't do anything.

I still (sometimes) get Plasma graphical glitches on resuming from suspend. NVIDIA!

My son's ancient PC runs 39 beautifully, but 40 lags every five seconds even just sitting idle at the desktop.

Games are running great and I love the ease of installing Steam and flipping the compatibility switch, and instantly having Proton-GE available.

I wanted to get Sunshine running for Moonlight, but I guess it has major problems with Wayland (not Fedora's/Nobara's fault).

I sent in two phones for an offered $1600 total promotional bill credits.

One phone rejected, for the reason: "won't power on". I videoed myself opening the box on the returned phone, pressing the power button, and turning the phone on, booting into Pixel setup.

The other, Spectrum is trying to give me $200 credit for.

I spent hours on the phone with support from both of these scam companies. Do not deal with either of them, you have been warned.

The only distro I can find that successfully configures a functioning bootable GRUB on this (bastard) machine is Nobara, which looks very cool but is way too heavy! Some things are glitchy; attempting tab completion seems to freeze Konsole for ~5 seconds and does not complete the command as expected. We're working with an Intel Atom [email protected] and 2GB RAM here.

How can a noob figure out what it's doing differently so I can apply that to Linux Mint Debian Edition or Crunchbang Plus Plus?

The weird thing is that once the system is installed, it does not seem to have what I think are the required packages for GRUB to be set up correctly with this type of UEFI.
