Does Linux even work properly on Dell XPS laptops?

the more i am delving into things, the dell documentations are saying that the two really aren’t compatible except for like an outdated version of ubuntu… I never even thought about this, but looking back in time, I’ve tried many distros and the all have had some sort of internal issues that I couldn’t figure out and had...

riotrick,

I have a 13 plus (9320). Everything works in any distro, except for the webcam. Dell provides drivers for it for ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04, and only for the default kernels it comes with. You can also get it working on arch.

Work is being done on these alder lake webcams, but there still is no support for them in the kernel at the moment.

I run mine in ubuntu with a newer kernel. And use my phone with droidcam as a webcam as a work-a-round. The newer kernels run better for battery life etc. I still have the default kernel installed, so I can reboot and use that, when I really need the built in cam.

riotrick,

Yes, the fingerprint reader on the 13 plus (9320) works fine.

riotrick,

At least on the 13 plus they support the LTS versions of Ubuntu. 20.04 and 22.04 at the moment. Basically any distro will work, just the alder webcam needs specific drivers that are not generally available.

riotrick,

That’s only for the webcam. Arch has working drivers for it as well. And in the end this is only temporary, until Intel gets drivers for these webcams in the kernel source. Work is being done on them, so it’s a matter of time.

riotrick,

Nog nooit geprobeerd met stroop. Gooi er altijd een flinke scheut warme melk door. Vind het nooit droog.

riotrick,

Yes it works in some situations. I use it on teams every day. I run the browser version of teams in gnome wayland.

riotrick,

I do the same thing. The camera on my old phone is much better than the one built into my laptop. And even though the phone’s battery is pretty much dead, that doesn’t matter since I have it hooked up and powered via usb all the time.

A missing F-35 stealth fighter may have kept flying after its pilot ejected. A pilotless Soviet jet once flew 500 miles before crashing in NATO territory. (www.businessinsider.com)

The curious case of a missing F-35 stealth fighter in South Carolina has authorities — and civilians — searching high and low, especially considering the jet may have continued flying on its own for some time even after its pilot ejected....

riotrick,

They don’t even have an airtag on those things?

riotrick,

Oh, that sounds like an interesting idea. Currently stuck with teams at work. Screen sharing does work under wayland. But definitely going to try this.

riotrick,

I was really excited to play. But unfortunately somehow this games makes me nauseous. Like some form of motion sickness. I play on xbox series x by the way.

Especially when you’re low on health the blur makes it worse. As well as looking through the scope of a gun.

Tried turning the motion blur and film grain of, but that doesn’t really help. Tried a few gameplay session. But everytime I play I get nauseous after a few minutes. Never had this in any other game. And I’ve been playing games all my life.

So for now I stopped playing. Hopefully they’ll be making some changes in the future, that will alleviate this. But for now it’s a no go for me unfortunately.

Toto on Max's 10 in a row: It's not something that would be important for me, any of those numbers. It's for Wikipedia. Nobody reads that anyway (imgur.com)

Toto on Max’s 10 in a row: Our situation was different because we had two guys fighting against each other within the team. I don’t know whether he cares about the record. It’s not something that would be important for me, any of those numbers. It’s for Wikipedia. Nobody reads that anyway

riotrick,

I don’t think I’ve ever seen the entire field so tight. It’s just Max in the RBR that stands out.

riotrick,

And Japan is only a week after that. Honestly I think Qatar would be more realistic (2 weeks after Japan).

riotrick,

Last weekend I was at a formula 1 race. And we got soaked in dihydrogen monoxide there…

riotrick,

Similarly there is pfSense for firewall/router/vpn/etc. It’s just rocksolid and stable.

riotrick,

It bit of rain is ok. Hopefully not too much, since I’ll be in the grandstands tomorrow and sunday 😁

Today we had quite heavy rain in the some parts of the country. Zandvoort was pretty ok today though.

riotrick,

Fun fact: all the trains between Amsterdam and Zandvoort will have two drivers. One on each end of the (extra long) trains. So they drivers won’t have to switch seats when going back and forth.

riotrick,

I was thinking the same thing. I usually use the full res option. It’s been in there for years.

riotrick,

Yes US is very different in that aspect. I live in the Netherlands. Most people here have an app from their bank, with which you basically can do all your banking with. For payments between people, you can simply create a payment request in your banking app, and send a link to it via text, whatsapp, whatever. When clicking the link it will open the receivers own banking app with which the transfer can be me. Just the bank accounts, and amounts are already preset. It’s very easy to use, works with every bank, and everybody just uses the app from their own bank with all it’s safety measures.

Personally I hardly ever use cash anymore. Just tapping your phone to pay is so much more convenient. Also keeping track of where you spend your money is easier.

Out here we used to have atm machines everywhere. Their number has declined greatly though. They are still around, you will usually have to check a map if you’re in place where you don’t know their locations. Cash usage has definitely declined a lot these last year.

That being said, I think getting rid of cash completely is a bad idea. Cash certainly has it’s usage / advantages.

It also seems to differ from country to country by the way. For example Germany, still uses cash a lot more than we do here.

is anyone else bothered by the lack of the 3 buttons at the bottom

So i just bought Asus rog phone 6d and im extremely bothered by the lack of the back ,home and whatewer is the 3 one called buttons on the news androids. Is this something you all got used to with time or does this still bother you( IT really fells much less intuitive compared to the old 3 buttons ,alghtough preferably i would...

riotrick,

These settings are samsung specific. Samsung had optional gesture navigation before it was in android. Different gestures though (the 3 button swipe from the bottom option). So nowadays you can choose between the old style samsung gestures, the android gestures and toggle the button row on or off on samsung phones.

riotrick,

Just stick with the gestures for a week or so. You’ll get used to it. Wouldn’t want to go back to the button row anymore.

riotrick,

They say the advantage disappears on high downforce tracks. That seems to contradict this line of thought.

If you run with less rear wing the drs effect should be smaller, not larger. They are doing something different.
