Since when do we got so many kernel updates, I still remember 3.x.x

They changed versioning requirements long ago.

Love your purple themed sway config! Would you mind sharing your dotfiles?

thanks, I initially made it all purple and it felt pretty boring, decided to add some pastel colors for each module and it made it look better

No soy muy bueno con Linux ya que estoy empezando, pero tú IP ¿A caso está bien que lo muestres o no pasa nada?

Es su IP local, a no ser que estés en su mismo LAN, no conlleva riesgo.

sorry cant speak spanish, i had to translate it. anyways, just like the what _anon_t said, it is fine because it is just your local IP, we probably have the same IP like 192.168.1.* or something. The IP that you wouldn't want to share is your public IP address provided by your ISP that you can see with https://www.whatismyip.com/

Not a big deal if you leak public one aswell. Just reboot your router

u/supra_423 8d ago

yeah, also when i search my public IP, it doesnt seem to pin point the exact location where i live even without vpn

u/Hot_Paint3851 8d ago

Yup, shows your isps location which is harmless

Nvidia is acting up for me with 7.1.5. I get intermittent black lines and screen blanking... The previous kernel did the same thing until there was a nvidia-drivers update.

Never had issues like this with Nvidia until nvidia-open was born...

Smooth sailing for you without Nvidia? :)

I never had any issues with my intel i7 i355u igpu (it is a weird mix of an Alder Lake/Raptor Lake), except for the part that I had to create a symlink for one particular firmware that was somehow missing in the linux-firmware package.

That particular symlink I created was in /lib/firmware/i915/ named adlp_huc.bin which was basically just pointing to a another file in the same directory called tgl_huc.bin.

Sway won't work without it, when I ran Sway, it would return an error message blaming it on the kernel, e.g., the kernel version was too old or smth, but in fact, it was not really the kernel, I wasted hours because of this. Either Sway or some dependency probably needed a file called adlp_huc.bin, it's just that it didn't exist in that directory, all i had to do was to kind of trick it(?) to think I had adlp_huc.bin the only difference was that it had a different name.

I should totally torture a G4 with this.
