Successfully installed cachyos-kernel on EndeavourOS!

apparently i messed up pacman so now it just shows 0 packages lmao

I installed this kernel on old hardware (Intel HD 3000 igpu) to check the performance improvement, and i got stable 150 fps in minecraft 1.8 / stable 120 fps in minecraft 1.21 whereas i only had 60-80 fps in both versions using the default kernel.

One year with Endevour, never being so proud

A bit of a showcase of my desk, I think the best way to prove the power of Linux it's to use it in you daily routine, I use this laptop for my school, and do actual work with it, i use the Bluetooth with no problems and sometimes I do some gaming, also I learned a lot about open source programs, and because of that I know how to use Torrents to scape Netflix (if you know what I mean)

I think the reason I love this thing it's because the time I invested on solving some minor issues and because it only have what I need and what I actually use, the best part of this, it's the amount of information I learned about tech stuff and how some things actually work

Thank you Endevour and thank you Linux community

What is EndeavourOS?

Pitch me the distro. I accidentally discovered this distro and am now curious. I mostly use Debian based distros, usually the "easy" ones line Ubuntu and zorin, but I also have multiple headless machines that are terminal only. Am I likely to like EndeavorOS? What is it that you like about it?

Keyboard 'things' (Ghostty / Kitty problem) on EOS / KDE

I have two "problems" that I can't solve on my own.

Keyboard - I use a fairly standard "Polish" layout, so-called "programmer's" one, where pressing "right ALT" for certain letters brings up Polish diacritics. And it works perfectly.

But I'm used to the fact that if there's no other "Polish" character for a given letter, pressing "right ALT" for that letter doesn't work.

On EOS with KDE, I added a "Polish" keyboard, but when I press "right ALT" for "Q," I get, for example, the "π" (Pi) character.

It's not a problem - but it's far from my typing habit. How can I manage this?

---

Secondly. My terminal is KDE Console. I like it. It works. BUT vanity compels me to check out Kitty and Ghostty.

And here's where the real circus begins, which, as a "newbie," I can't quite grasp. Additionally, when I want to use shortcuts and press something that has nothing assigned (by mistake, or just for testing), for example, SHIFT + CTRL + D (or another letter), I get "5;6u0;6u3;6u" in Ghostty. I don't know why this happens or how to "fix" it (I assume this is normal terminal behavior, but the effect is irritating – Console doesn't have this; nothing happens if a given shortcut is "empty").

Of course, both things give a wonderfully creative vibe in places, but please help me understand. :)

I think my EOS is slow.

My pc:
Cpu: intel i5 4570
Ram: 8gb
Gpu: Intel HD 4600
Storage: 500gb HDD
Desktop Environment: KDE Plasma

I am a web and mobile app developer, I use Google Antigravity as my IDE. I am feeling that my pc is getting slow while I am working on it. The browsing is slow, even while writing this my code is compiling for previous 7-10 minutes. I don't know what is causing this.

Question about Minecraft

So I am a total newbie with linux on general and had some questions.

I use PrismLauncher and just took my old folder and bufferd (if thats the right word) it on an USB and put it back onto Endeavour. After a little figuring out how to get it to work I now have the problem that it went from my original 75fps (Monitor limit) down to barely 20.

I just wanted to ask if I missed some step or did smth completly wrong.

Is there a way I can have Mangohud/GOverlay run all the time?

I like being able to see my thermals at all times, but as far as I know, mangohud only really runs in steam apps? This laptop can't even run videogames. it's too shit. (ASUS X541U-V)

I don't know how to fix this, and I'm not technical enough to understand the github depicted here.

So, up until about a year ago, I was an avid Windows user for over 30 years (yes, I understand I just aged myself). They went to shit with Windows 11, and I decided I wanted to switch to Linux anyway.

I have learned a lot on my own, also thanks to many google searches, because to hell with AI too.

This just happened to me, and I'm not understanding how to see what is going on, because as I said, I'm just not that good with deciphering the language being used.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Issues with gaming on Endeavor OS

Hey guys, it's been 3 months since I completely switched from Windows 11 to Endavor OS on my main laptop (this one : Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9E). So far, i'm happy to have switched but some issues kinda makes me wonder if I did something wrong (mostly the case) or if gaming on Linux still isn't ready. For example, I have heavy lag and crashes on some big titles such as NightReign, Devil May Cry 5, or Metro Exodus. I also have issues on much lighter games such as Dishonored or Disco Elysium. Some games still run flawlessly (Blasphemous, Stardew Valley, Bloodstained, Death Stranding ...). Could someone help me understand why I run in those issues ? I know that some games I have are really good title, but i can't enjoy them the way I want to. Feel free to ask any question you have about my specs or anything, i'll happily provide any bit of info in my possession.

PS : Sorry for my bad english, i'm not a native speaker. I forgot to say that I didn't have any of thos issues on Windows.

Would you guys reccomend endeavor for a newbie?

Hey guys, I'm getting my first actual non work computer in a while and I wanna do gaming and just general use. Never used Linux before except years ago a little , I'm willing to learn the ropes and I'm good with following tutorials and online guides but I've heard some horror stories on the stability of the system, is it true it can break every new release? I don't wish to go through that and want minor hiccups at most I can troubleshoot and fix.

Is it okay for a newbie?

Thanks!

I made bezel, a per-edge-zone trackpad gesture daemon for Linux Wayland (Rust, evdev)

On macOS, apps can detect whether a swipe started from the screen edge.

Nothing on Linux Wayland did this for trackpads.

Bezel is a Rust daemon that reads raw evdev input, splits the trackpad into zones (left edge, right edge, top, bottom, corners, center) and lets you bind different gestures per zone. Compositor agnostic works on Niri, Hyprland, and should work on anything Wayland.

GitHub: https://github.com/Indra55/bezel

Still early, feedback and stars appreciated.

Day 3 on linux

I've always liked the idea of arch but since im stupid, I just decided to install eos onto this old windows 8 pc I have, it was running w10 and I bought it off Facebook for 30$

W10 would idle about 4-6gb ram and eat up all my cpu

Im getting like 2-3 gig ram here and very little cpu use

Im sure brave is the problem so now im looking into ublock origin and firebox, 12gb of 1600 ddr3 isn't something I can just throw around

This is all an attempt to make grabblue run on outdated hardware because im bored

Learning bash is fun tho
