Arch Linux on Reddit

My Arch Linux install is having issues with pairing PS4 controllers. The controllers themselves each connect fine, but only one of them has the desired result of also pairing (meaning I can simply push the PS button to have it connect to my computer.) I am a bit at a loss having reset the controllers, disconnected and re-paired (though it gives a false positive) all of them, and only the same controller without fail pairs and connects just fine. The other controllers disconnect and re-connect just fine, but doesn't repair, meaning that I have to re-connect the controller through pairing mode each time. Any Ideas on what I could do? submitted by /u/Civil-World8202 [link] [comments]

I am getting errors like: error: python-typing_extensions: signature from "Daniel M. Capella <polyzen@archlinux.org>" is unknown trust. And on doing pacman-key --list-sigs I'm getting errors like Capella gpg: Note: trustdb not writable pub rsa4096 2016-01-03 [SC] [expired: 2024-11-09]. I have tried sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys and it throws a bunch of errors in there too. My system time seems to be ok. I am updating arch after 3 months I think. submitted by /u/brownmfdoomer [link] [comments]

Background: I've been a full time arch user for the past 4 years. Been using Ubuntu, Manjari, Kali and other distros even before that. My Problem: I'm trying to install Arch on a usb to make it portable. I'm moving overseas for studies and I need to bring my pc with my. But unfortunately my laptop is pretty old. So I'm planning to just being the data, and buy a new laptop after landing, preferably once I get a part-time job and able to pay for it. So I'm just trying to install arch on my 128gb usb drive. But something or other keeps messing it. I'm not sure whether it's the hardware fault (my laptop is about 8 yrs old and my internet is not very stable) or if it's something wrong with the arch install script. First it was the no space left in drive error. I realosed it was because I was installing arch on the same usb I has the bootable iso on. So I used a separate usb as the boot iso. Then I had issue with the mirrors. It was something like an error where the mirrors couldn't be connected or something.. For context, I'm just trying to install based arch with gnome on top of it. I'm not using some elaborate de that would take a lot of time to config since this is just temporary. Any pointers on how I can proceed with this? I'm downloaded the x86-64 iso from the official download page on archlinux.org. submitted by /u/Even_Marzipan_6140 [link] [comments]

I've been trying to compile a kernel with loadable module support disabled. Everything was working except wireless, and I couldn't figure out why. I figured it might be a firmware issue, but I have the firmware and compiling the b43 driver as a module worked fine in the past. So I decided to enable loadable module support, but literally the only thing selected to be a module and not compiled in was the b43 driver. After rebooting, it works perfectly, wlan0 is present as expected. This means I've narrowed down the issue to something to do with compiling the driver and firmware as part of the kernel rather than as a module. Is there any way around this? The resultant binaries will not be being distributed in any way, so if it is a licensing issue, is there a way to override that, just locally? submitted by /u/LunchyPete [link] [comments]

Hello, I’m an old Linux user and I have installed 1mo ago on my new laptop an arch Linux and a grub with a dual boot for windows, but I’ve installed it and haven’t realized that the preinstalled version of windows in my laptop is full of useless shit, so I want to reinstall windows from scratch but I’m scared of breaking the boot partition of my arch. So what are my options ? Reinstall windows and hope it don’t break ? If it breaks, can I just redo my configuration grub with a live iso of arch and it’s going to be ok ? Thanks for your reply Have a gods day!! submitted by /u/Beafowl-Pull [link] [comments]

Disclaimer: linux noob. I'm using virsh and qemu-img from libvirt and followed the wiki instructions to add user to the libvirt user and also using qemu:///system to avoid needing to using sudo. Creating/installing the volumes and passing it the distro ISO for installation always messes with the ownership of the files, making it libvirt-qemu:libvirt-qemu and I need manually chown $USER:libvirt to be able to interact with these files using virsh. Adding my user to libvirt-qemu doesn't seem to fix this. Any ideas? submitted by /u/notlazysusan [link] [comments]

Well, title. I have a Thinkpad X230 with Arch Linux installed in UEFI mode with and FAT32 EFI Partition and Windows 10 with Bitlocker enabled and Secure Boot. By adding reboot-for-bitlocker yes to loader.conf it should reboot to Windows directly to have the TPM registers right, but it doesn't. This configuration is so simple that I really don't know where it's wrong or where to start digging. I know that systemd-boot can access loader.conf because I can change the timeout without problem. loader.conf timeout 25 console-mode keep autoentries yes autofirmware yes editor no reboot-for-bitlocker yes submitted by /u/ranixon [link] [comments]

Hey people ! How do you do ? I am posting because in recent time I had troubles with easyeffects. The UI is buggy such as frequent crash when adding effects, it’s impossible to save any preset and the input fields are buggy (I also can’t type anything in them). Am I the only one or is it more spread ? (I installed via pacman and have trouble on tumbleweed too but less) submitted by /u/baalroga [link] [comments]

Hello everyone, i’m new to Arch and as the title says i went through the painful process of installing it on a vm. I think i did everything right, the system boots correctly into sddm and then plasma but i’m having some graphical problems and i’m looking for a little help. The system seems graphically slow, moving the windows is jerky, the terminal (kitty-zsh/oh-my-zsh) is all glitchy, the mouse moves slow and for exaple if i leave it still for a couple of seconds when i move it again has a sort of delay, i think you understood what i mean. The vm has plenty of resources (16gb ram/12 core/3d acceleration/128mb video memory) but my concerns are about the gpu i have, which is pretty trash (amd radeon rx550x) (don’t judje me please, i’m saving to change it hahaha) do you guys think this might be the problem? I have two other vms (kali and ubuntu) and they run smoothly, have i missed the installation of some necessary packages for vm installation? Might the guest additions help? I really appreciate if you can give me some help :) submitted by /u/Agreeable_Revenue388 [link] [comments]

Tab Key Issue on Arch Linux (KDE): Repeats, Delays, and Weird Alt+Tab Behavior I'm experiencing a strange issue with the Tab key on Arch Linux with KDE: When pressed, the key sometimes behaves as if it's being held down, repeating instantly. This also happens in games, where Tab repeats unexpectedly, causing a lot of problems. Alt+Tab behaves oddly — sometimes there's a delay, and other times it skips through multiple windows as if it registers a double press. I'm using KDE Plasma with default keyboard settings and the libinput driver. I've tested this on two different keyboards (including a Loofree Flow), and the issue persists. The same hardware works fine on Windows. What I've tried so far: - Adjusted key repeat settings with `xset r rate`. - Enabled/disabled key repeat using `xset r off/on`. - Checked keyboard configs in `/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/`. None of these attempts solved the problem. Could this be a KDE bug or something related to the input drivers? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! submitted by /u/Kakain18 [link] [comments]

Last time I checked the open driver couldn't switch off the gpu (for turing and below only) and there's a lot of bugs like freeze and X server crash on 560. I'm currently running on arch linux 6.11 with nvidia 550.127 from tkg and it is now running well but the problem is when I switch tab to another app it will freeze. For example, when I play Minecraft and then I switch to discord for 2-3 times, it will freeze and lock the entire system. I wonder if anyone have better experience on latest arch setup or got any workaround for this setup. EDIT: solved the freeze-when-switching-apps here submitted by /u/indomieslayer [link] [comments]

Using DWM 6.5; Libreoffice 24.8.3.2 I sometimes give presentations using Libreoffice Impress. The usual behavior is identical to that of MS Powerpoint: When you start a slideshow, it propagates to the second monitor, while on the first, the presenter is given a screen containing the current slide, a preview of the next, and other assorted information. This works out off the box using KDE, and probably any other standard desktop environment. I wouldn't expect to get that behavior out of the box in DWM, but I would have guessed there'd be a way to configure it. Thus far, I haven't found it. When I start the presentation I get the presenter's window, I'm not even sure where (if anywhere) the slideshow is going. It doesn't show up on any tags, and certainly not on the auxiliary monitor. Messing with the slideshow settings within Impress has not altered this behavior. Does anyone have any idea how to make this work? submitted by /u/big_hairy_hard2carry [link] [comments]

I have a loq 15ARP9 with gnome installed. The screen turns black when i remove the power supply and works fine. The laptop does not have an igpu just a 4050 mobile.

I am a beginner who recently dual booted arch linux with windows 11. I have been daily driving it for about a month now and has been running smoothly, i was tired of all the windows bloatware eating all my RAM, hence i made the switch. Using KDE plasma desktop environment has been too easy and i feel like making my life hell so should i install hyprland desktop environment. Or maybe i should try install it on a VM first n try submitted by /u/Zemistry [link] [comments]

First read the Arch Linux FAQ from the wiki Code of conduct How do I ask a proper question? Smart Questions XYProblem Please follow the standard list when giving a problem report.
