Pipeline pump placement in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

In this case, shouldn't the output per pipeline be 33% rather than 50%? After all, there are 3 outputs. Or is 50% on the "middle" pipeline and 50% on the two new ones together?

For some reason, i never have seen this blue ring and i have build some pumps. But i will try it on a test pipeline, which will go straight upwards.

Update every day? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Since currently I'm only playing Satisfactory, and I have downloaded the shader's, it should not come back the next day? Or is that wrong?

I mean, it's not the download which annoy me, its the time before I can start the game. It takes ages to download this 170MB from steam server's. Normally 170MB is transferred really fast for other things, but the update takes 5 minutes and longer from steam server's.

Yes. Arch Linux, but on a laptop. Nice combination. I thought the pre-caching is displayed as a separate dialog for Vulkan, which I can interrupt, if I want.

But I have every day a message directly right nearby the play button which reads something about "Download Update..." and the play button is grayed out.

Pipeline pump placement (feddit.de)
 

Somehow I don't understand electricity generation with oil. I have a normal oil well and transport the oil to a refinery 8m higher. However, not enough oil arrives there, even though the oil pump has a delivery height of 10m.

I have now installed a pipeline pump at approx. 4m, with the result that the previous 0.6m³ in the pipeline became 0. If I remove this pump, the content of the pipeline suddenly increases to 27m³ and the refinery starts working. and yes, the pump was pointing in the right direction.

The next problem is the fuel generators. I have 4 in a tower on the lower floor working. The supply seems to be sufficient. I now have build another 4 generators on the floor above the first floor, these again don't get any fuel, even though I have installed an mk2 pump directly at the bottom at the start of the riser pipe. The second floor is 8 walls higher above the first floor. This pump supposedly pumps up to 50m, but in the pump settings I only see a maximum height of 4m. Why?

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Where should I place the pipeline pumps? Should I use more refinerys? Or what's the secret here?

Smudget objects with Vulkan (feddit.de)
 

Since some time, I'm play Satisfactory on Linux. Performance is fine so far. But if I look on the moving conveyer belts with objects like iron ore or other things, this moving parts produce smudged artifacts on the screen. I don't know what this is called and what I can do against that. I have played the same game on the same laptop on Windows with exactly the same in-game settings. There are no such artifacts.

Is there anything I can do against that? Graphics card is a Nvidia 1050 with proprietary driver. I'm on Arch Linux. Proton is 8.25 GE. I have tested several Proton variant without any difference.

How do I get Nviddia drivers to work in arch? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

According to the linked wiki, try to go to https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/CodeNames.html.

Check on your laptop with dmesg | grep -i chipset the codename of your graphic card. With this you can check which driver is the best on https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA. There is a paragraph, explaining which driver is the best.

If I understand it right, the nvidia package is the correct one for 1050. So you can use pacman -S nvidia with root privileges. All dependencies should be resolved automatically.

I would recommend to reboot, in case there are changed kernel modules.

2 things i have to note: Using Wayland is a total mess with nvidia. Specially on Arch Linux. I have screen flickering in GUI and games, the performance is so lala and tools like KeePass which needs access to the text in window titles did not work complete. On Manjaro, the flickering doesn't exist, but the other symptoms do. Maybe im missing some packages on Arch.

Second with Vulkan i have some tearing in games. I have not looked further in to that.

On the other hand, games like Satisfactory or Elder Scrolls Online, have more FPS with the same settings as on Windows.

Currently i test Arch and Manjaro in parallel on the same Laptop. But I tend to keep Manjaro and remove Arch. There are light pro's and con's, but overall, I'm more happy with Manjaro. But this has nothing to do with you're issue.

Editing grub Menü dual boot not working (feddit.de)
 

The first OS on laptop was Windows 10. After that, I have added Manjaro. Manjaro has added a Grub menu, with entry's for Manjaro and Windows. Now I want to switch to Arch. I have installed Arch on a separate partition. Arch has not added a entry in this grub menu, but this was expected. I have used update-grub from Manjaro, what added Arch to the menu.

But for some reason I can't edit the menu from within Arch.

I have tried to understand Arch Wiki what I have to do, to edit this menu from Arch. Can someone please help me to get this to work? I have tried to add my EFI partition /dev/sda1 via fstab to /boot/efi like in Manjaro, but this doesn't help to find the same menu with grub-customizer.

Any idea's?

Dual Boot Best Practices? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes. Because some games work only with proper privileges. This can get complicated on NTFS.

Dual Boot Best Practices? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Keep a minimum of 30GB free, for Windows update processes on the windows system partition. I don't how much the windows installation counts in space, but add that to the 30gb free space. I would recommend to have a extra partition for the games on NTFS and move your steam, epic, ubisoft, whatever library to that partition.

I have tried to use the same gaming partition between Linux and Windows, but failed every time. In the worst case this can alter your Windows privileges. At least I had this issue.

Currently I'm using Windows only for 2 games: Space Engineers and Empyrion. The rest works with better performance on Linux. Satisfactory, Ark survival, Elder Scrolls Online have more FPS on Linux with the same settings. I have to use a nvidia 1050 Ti in my laptop. With a AMD GPU the situation is a lot better on Linux.

I'm not a hardcore gamer, mostly im coding here and there. But sometimes gaming is a must have.

Systemd timer unit in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

OK, many thx for the tips. Since my script in the service file is already doing some logging, i will try to use the last log entry, to find out, when it was last time running and exit the script, if it is not in the timeframe of 1 week.

Systemd timer unit (feddit.de)
 

I try to create a timer unit for weekly and daily backups. For example with the weekly unit, it should be executed once in a week, some minutes after login. If the unit was successful, it should shutdown and not start again until the next week. If a start of this unit was missing, it should be start again some minutes after the next login.

But for some unknown reason, the current unit starts after every login when I reboot the laptop. I am relatively sure that this timer unit is set up wrong, but unfortunately I don't know how I can implement such a unit better with the functions mentioned above.

[Unit]
Description=Run backup weekly
Requires=backup.service

[Timer]
Unit=backup.service
OnCalendar=weekly
RandomizedDelaySec=120
Persistent=true

Loosing Lizard Doggo (feddit.de)
 

I have tried to tame a Lizard Doggo today the first time. I'm playing the game now since 3 days and searched for this animal since the beginning. I never found them when i was walking. Today i could build my first vehicle and was more far away from the HUB. I found such a Doggo and could tame him. But after driving some meters, i couldnt find the Doggo anymore. Could it be, that they dont follow the car? How can i bring him to my base/Hub?

How to play "Empyrion - Galactic Survival"? (feddit.de)
 

I try to play "Empyrion" on Linux via Steam. I have tried other games like "Satisfactory" without any issues and with a better performance as on Windows. But with Empyrion i get a max of 10 - 13 fps, where i have ~60fps on Windows on the same laptop. Graphic adapter is a nVidia 1050 GTX and OS is Arch Linux. If i remember correctly, Empyrion is a Unity game.

Ungoogled Chromium XDG? (feddit.de)
 

I would like to install Ungoogled Chromium, but I can only find ungoogled Chromium as an older version on Arch AUR and a "Ungoogled Chromium XDG" as a newer build. Can someone please explain me what's the difference between Ungoogled Chromium and Ungoogled Chromium XDG?

Change GeForce now keyboard layout? (feddit.de)
 

Is there some way to set the keyboard layout on GFN in the browser, or at least use the system keyboard layout from Gnome?

According to the Arch Wiki, i should start Chromium with --disable-features=UserAgentClientHint` and spoof the UserAgent to Windows, but this doesn't work anymore. There are no Keyboard area in the settings.

If I use GFN on Windows, the area for keyboard layout is working.

Or is there some way to copy the settings from windows via Cookies or any other storage method?

Can't put anything in the assembler to disassemble them (feddit.de)
 

I have connected my containers via conveyor tubes with some assemblers. The tubes and all parts are green and working. But for some reason, I can't move objects from the containers to the assembler, to disassemble them.

Do you have any ideas what could be the reason?

Gaming laptop with good Linux support? (feddit.de)
 

A similar question was raised some day's ago from a other person, but with different background. In this case, I would like to buy a nice gaming laptop. Of course I would use it for office and coding to, but primary I'm searching recommendations for gaming. I would like to play Wine/Proton game's and also native Linux games. As OS, I like to use Manjaro Gnome.

Should I better buy all of AMD (if yes, which CPI, GPU) or Intel/Nvidia? Or Intel CPU and AMD GPU? Which combination is the right one with best performance for a casual gamer? I prefer FPS games, if that's important...
