Just upgraded my monitor from FHD to UHD and this what I see when I open the app menu. Previously I thought this thing is resolution-dependent, but apparently not. Gnome 49.5 submitted by /u/Superok211 [link] [comments]

So my question is is there any way I can make the firefox a bit light so it doesn't make my overview laggy. Like even with light two windows one firefox and the other any like telegram or files app the overview lags horribly. But with any chromium browser it's smooth like butter no matter how many windows 3, 4,5 or whatever. It's the same with any gecko based browsers like zen or any other. submitted by /u/BarryAllenAKAFlash [link] [comments]

Maybe someone has encountered bugs like this before and knows a quick fix, but it seems on GNOME 50 on Cachy OS (using Gnome Unstable repository since it isn’t deployed in Cachy yet) I suddenly get a mouse issue. I use a Logitech MMO mouse with the buttons mapped to num keys. In Overwatch I bind various things, such as emotes and voiceline radials to those keys. When I use the buttons it also changes my camera to suddenly look up or down and is very disorientating. It had started when I updated and I downgraded back to GNOME 49 and the problem is gone. Anyone seen this before and know a quick fix? submitted by /u/leonredhorse [link] [comments]

Its a simple daemon tool that will keep listening to color & mode changes and then apply the colors accordingly to any Chromium browser with policies. super simple to install and user https://reddit.com/link/1s09k3k/video/vsjttpfl8iqg1/player https://github.com/gxanshu/chrome-accent-sync submitted by /u/gxanshu [link] [comments]

Hey all :) In the screenshot you can see that I haven installed BattleNet via Faugus-launcher and started it. In the top left corner, below the topbar, always appears this white little window - when I try to drag/move it, it will often disappear and the whole battlenet launcher crashes with it. Its pretty annoying, sometimes I need to restart battlenet multiple times because it often just crashes instantly... I was always wondering what this issue is and how I could get rid of that. Maybe someone has the same problem and could help me cheers PS: I am on Tumbleweed, AMD GPU and using the newest Proton-GE for that. https://preview.redd.it/loactmvo5hqg1.png?width=986&format=png&auto=webp&s=a7c38bfcd61b6a1a852a5eee5deda66b700c0dbb submitted by /u/This_Tailor_4025 [link] [comments]

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a distribution/live CD that already includes Gnome 50. I just want to see and try out Gnome 50. I tried Fedora 44 beta and Gnome OS but both won't boot for me from USB. Is there anything I can try out already ? Thank you. submitted by /u/JeffBeckwasthebest [link] [comments]

I've been using XFCE for years and never experienced any problem like this. I installed Gnome a few months ago. Or tried it with Fedora a few months ago, came to love it but had a ton of problems, switched back to Debian 13 but erased XFCE and installed Gnome a couple months ago and didn't have any of the Fedora problems. But recently like in the last couple weeks I notice things lag some times. Kinda like in old Windows when u'd need to reboot to get it back to normal. Tho rebooting doesn't fix anything here. Just saying for lack of a better vocab, that that's the best way I can describe the slow downs. Like clicking something and nothing happens, then 3 seconds later it responds. Or sometimes it freezes up for many seconds so I'm thinking I need to shut down, then finally works. Or when typing sometimes, the letters don't show up immediately, they're a few seconds behind. Am I doing something wrong or is this intrinsic to Gnome? I've been using the same two laptops all this time, a Thinkpad T470 then T480. And I didn't have the problem at first with Gnome so it's not processing power. I have 32G of ram, it's nowhere close to ever being used up. Most the time I experience it in Firefox because that's what I'm using most of the time, but it happens elsewhere too. Not when using the terminal. I haven't really analyzed what's happening to spot patterns better than that tho so yeah this is vague and I doubt anyone can glean anything constructive out of it, but I work more than 40hrs a week so I've lost all my ability to enjoy solving my Linux problems. So thanks for whatever insight may be out there. submitted by /u/Naivemun [link] [comments]

Just in case anyone wasn't aware there is a Dropbox client based on the Dropbox Public API that integrates very nicely into Files and the top bar. I've always preferred Dropbox over Google Drive anyway, and so here's something that just works. https://github.com/samschott/maestral submitted by /u/tornado99_ [link] [comments]

Hey everyone, I’ve always wanted to have live wallpapers on GNOME like I used to on other systems, but most existing solutions felt either too bloated or didn't work well with Wayland. So, I decided to build my own: gnome-wallpaper-engine. Disclaimer: I know using an external mpv process to "layer" a video behind the desktop icons might not be the "cleanest" or most sophisticated architectural solution, but honestly? It works, and it's better than having nothing at all. What it does: Uses mpv as a backend (high performance, GPU acceleration). Has a built-in gallery in the settings to manage your clips. Ghost-Mode: Clicks pass through the video to your desktop icons. Works on both Wayland and X11. Supports MP4, WebM, MKV, MOV, AVI, and GIFs. Prerequisites: You just need mpv installed on your system. Check it out here:https://github.com/achu94/gnome-wallpaper-engine I'm currently waiting for the official GNOME Shell Extensions review, but you can already install it manually from the repo. I'd love to hear your feedback—even if you want to tell me how "hacky" my approach is. If it helps someone else enjoy a live background, I'm happy! EDIT: Update is out! Added Autostart, UI pages, and an option to hide the tray icon! submitted by /u/OkBed2367 [link] [comments]

I'm using opensuse tumblweed, when I install the system packages(such as yaru-icon-theme, gnome-shell-theme-yaru), and apply them using gnome-tweaks there's a ton of visual glitches. For example buttons on the top right panel are overlapping, gtk4 themed apps not working properly, and such submitted by /u/Both_Confidence_4147 [link] [comments]

Hey everyone, I've been dealing with this annoying bug for about a month now and can't find a fix. Setup: Fedora 43 Workstation Gnome 49.4 Wayland Dash to Dock extension Intellihide enabled, mode set to ALL_WINDOWS The bug: Whenever I close my laptop lid with an app open on screen and then reopen it, the dock stops hiding and starts displaying over whatever app is open. It basically ignores the intellihide setting completely. Interesting detail: If I close the lid while on the desktop (no app open), everything resumes normally with no issue. The bug only triggers when an app is open at the time of suspend. Current workaround: I have to manually go into the dock settings, toggle the intelligent autohide off and back on — but this only works if I first minimize all windows and do it from the desktop. Toggling while an app is open does nothing. What I've tried (using claude): Creating a systemd user service to toggle intellihide on resume (service runs but gsettings doesn't seem to apply correctly on Wayland) System-level sleep hook via /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/ (fires but can't reach the session bus) Has anyone else run into this? Is there a known fix or workaround that actually works ? Thanks submitted by /u/pppkkkkk [link] [comments]

I’ll be honest. I spent years as a dedicated KDE Plasma power-user who loved its "endless" customization. Recently, I installed GNOME on a secondary laptop that runs openSUSE Leap 16.0. I decided to give it a fair shot, and that’s when it clicked! Thanks to the touchpad gestures and the keyboard centric workflow (still learning new shortcuts everyday), I realized I was flowing through my computer. At the beginning I was trying to "rice" it with lots of extensions, but shortly after I realized I was making the very similar mistakes as with Plasma. Since then, I keep my Leap + Gnome almost "vanilla". The plot twist, I ended finding myself running GNOME on my main openSUSE Tumbleweed machine as well, and I couldn't be happier because I spend less time "ricing" and more time actually getting things done. I’m embracing the "less is more" approach, though I'm using four extensions yet that are making the transition easier for me (alphabetical app grid, appIndicator, caffeine and GSConnect). So, a big "thank you" to the GNOME devs, designers and maintainers. You’ve built something that feels modern, cohesive, and joyful to use. submitted by /u/vgnxaa [link] [comments]

Here’s my current GNOME setup—trying to keep things minimal, clean, and actually functional for daily use. I’ve been experimenting with a distraction-free workflow, focusing more on simplicity rather than heavy customization. For me, GNOME feels best when it stays close to its original philosophy, but with a few personal touches to make it more comfortable. The goal wasn’t just aesthetics, but also how it feels to use every day—smooth transitions, organized workspace, and a setup that doesn’t get in the way of getting things done. I’m curious what you all think: Do you prefer keeping GNOME minimal like this, or do you go all-in with extensions and heavy tweaks? What would you change or improve in this setup? submitted by /u/Oliveaniss_ [link] [comments]
