maybe you can help guide me, I borked my video drivers on my desktop trying to get opencl to run on darktable with my 7900xtx gpu on popOS

I guess popOS just has older drivers or something and following guides on how to update led me to getting videos to stutter all the time now so Im planning to do a fresh install, would you recommend another distro that might have its drivers more up to date? I am thinking of trying out fedora as I heard that updates much faster than popOS

Thank you, I was just looking into what git is and what I could use it for

I've been getting that message every couple of days now it's annoying, my excitement to see if have a notification then it's just spam

I tried the flatpak version but was unable to get it started since it couldnt connect to my database even though I copied over all my config files to the flatpak directory

edit: looks like there is an issue with it missing a driver https://github.com/flathub/org.kde.digikam/issues/17

Thank you ill look into flatpaks more, I use the flatpak for firefox as I noticed it looked much newer than the popos shop deb

Hmm digikams site recommends the appimage

[–] neatobuilds@lemmy.today 1 points 6 days ago

it probably depends on the software and what it is set to use, digikam stores stuff it downloads for facial recognition and stuff in a home folder so now that I create the digikam.appimage.home folder it uses that which is nice

I thought so too but then I noticed after I created the .home and .config folders next to the appimage and launched digikam it was like a first time setup, so i went looking for digikam files in my own .home folder and copied it over to the new digikam.appimage.home folder and launched it it was like it was before with all my settings etc configured so I guess appimages do save things to your user home folder

Hi everyone, I have been getting back into photography lately and switched to using linux full time about a year ago.

I ended up deciding to use digikam as my photo library management tool and then edit in darktable. both applications I decided to use the appimage for easier use and to have the necessary dependencies to get things like opencl to work, (I had a hard time getting it to work with the .deb)

now I also use multiple machines and recently learned that you can create .home and .config folders for each appimage to have all their settings etc save there, and it seems that this would make it pretty portable.

would it be a bad idea to for example keep the appimages and their folders in a synchronized folder like with nextcloud to use the same* appimage across machines. I never have the same machine on at a time but it would be nice to have all the settings sync'd but im not sure it would then break something since two machines use nvidia gpus and the other uses an amd gpu

I like popos, mostly after coming from crunchbangplusplus popos just works and I like the easy way of hitting the super key and typing what application I want to launch or switch too, not sure it would do anything for your issue tho

 

Employees at Pho 21 restaurant in South San Jose had an unexpected showdown last weekend with what could be considered an attempted "robot kidnapper."

 
 

I came across this old IBM screen saver on a old machine and thought it was pretty cool. I set it up on my work laptop, but not Im curious if there are any cool linux or other screen savers you guys know?
