Been using Series Guide for years. Love it.

DSU, do you have a OnePlus N10 or N20? It does not work. If it works on your OnePlus, please provide the extra/special steps you took other than tapping the app and selecting a gsi, then rebooting. Nothing happens on boot. No gsi. Just boots normally.

I’ve not been able to get the built in gsi loader to ever work, not even with an app.

From what I understand, 1+ is not doing something the expected way… Idk.

I still need to find TWRP and to backup stock partitions first.

I see my N10 there 👍

Finally something to play with! Tyvm

Aw, I’m looking for a OnePlus N10 or N20 ROM 😓

Lawnchair 14 is latest, not on Play Store, think only via their website/github? Idr

? No drama intended, can you elaborate? I’m completely out of the loop.

It’s part of the never ending death march of every decent Google product.

First it’s a name change, then they’ll tweak a core functionality so it’s really really helpful, then they’ll either kill it immediately or move it into another package (thus fracturing older apps and devices from the functionality completely), then they pay wall it or kill it abruptly.

As a young tech trying to get started, Knoppix live CD enabled me to clean viruses and recover data for clients.

After years of using it as a specific tool, I decided to daily drive it when an older machine stopped accepting Windows Updates.

I still run Windows on my big rig, but Debian on everything Else.

With your information, and realizing I still have made virtually no progress…

Ugh. This is ridiculous. I was aware Apple did shiesty stuff, but never heard of anyone else.

The difference is staggering, and I have to believe something similar has happened.

This laptop was previously my test bed for Linux itself. Old Faithful, if you know what I mean. Got me confident enough to actually use Linux. Compile stuff. Tinker. 🥰

Got me to acquire another, newer laptop for Linux. Confidence, even if only a drop.

Thank you for replying and sharing. I can’t think of anything else being the issue.

I dunno…

But I switched to proton 6.x and dx10 and now it’s running, even if it crashes trying to change the settings.

Now I’ve got to figure out installing mods for single player… Using flatpak…

Just can’t change any of the graphic settings without it crashing.

Running at 1280x720 at 60fps

All lowest settings though. Good enough.

HP Envy 17

I switched to proton 6.x and dx10 and now it’s running 😎

I keep reading that anything below the 2000 series has severe Vulkan limitations… I’m wondering if Windows would perform better? Playable?

I’ve got no clue about video cards, let alone on Linux. I just know I prefer my Debian devices, and this is my first foray into Nvidia and Linux.

Edit: and I assume an MX250 is a 2000 series. Which makes the cut for Vulkan support fwir

It identifies and loads up the interface.

One process, Xorg @ 4MiB

I’ve got the right click to use card menu, and use that to force flatpak Steam to use it. Then I confirm in game it is selected.

It feels like a huge step down from Intel gfx on an older laptop running Windows…

SuperDisk™? 😏

Snaps definitely are slower to open. One they get going, they are fine.

But a little slow to load…

Wayland is default on Gnome.

Corroded… that’s something I hadn’t considered…

This is my “outside” laptop… been using it in places I wouldn’t want to risk a more expensive machine… 🤔 think I’ll disassemble it and check for corrosion…

Could be something in the process of breaking… could explain the erratic behaviors, I guess?

I haven’t tried any other distro yet. I’ve been with Debian my whole Linux life. But I might try XFCE again… that was my preferred desktop for years, only the new update triggered me to try Gnome properly.
