  • This is a dumb argument. Yes, my phone uses Linux. How many of the Android users actively come in contact with the underlying system?

    Mainstream Linux means a big part of people actively choosing to install a Linux distribution or buy a computer or notebook with a real Linux distro pre installed (not that lightweight barebones distro they preinstall so they can sell it without Windows but with OS).

    I use Gentoo, the family PC has OpenSUSE, only my wife’s laptop has Windows… Because guess what, she wants to use what she’s used to, what she knows.


  • My bet would be wine grabbing the audio device and not using Pipe wire/PulseAudio. It happened to me once, I believe I solved it by recompiling something (PipeWire, wine or the gst plugins). I would recommend trying to run Discord and the game in terminal, it might show some error to help with troubleshooting.


  • If by AC you mean Assetto Corsa, it works, you just have to follow a guide (it’s easy, you have to remove the Proton data for the game from Steam, then install the older Proton version, run the game with this older version until it crashes, then switch to new version of Proton and run it again. It will install required dependencies and will run fine, even my old G25 steering wheel worked without problems)

    I’m a long time Gentoo user. No systemd ever. When my old computer started failing and my Gentoo started falling apart (mostly because I made multiple mistakes when trying out testing versions of Plasma 5 and also due to me not updating for a long time and then getting into a long list of blockers) I installed OpenSUSE (Tumbleweed… Once you go rolling release, you can’t go back. :-D).

    In just a few weeks, no idea why or how, it started having a weird problem. When shutting down, every time, it got stuck on some error (waiting for session something, I believe, but I don’t remember really) and it was waiting 1.5min until it continued. No explanation of what exactly it’s waiting for, no way to say “continue now without waiting”… No amount of googling got me anywhere near to finding out what the problem was.

    Later I also ran into a problem where I was changing something about hard drives, I changed the fstab too, but for some reason systemd was getting stuck on trying to mount the drives that weren’t in the fstab anymore. Later I found out that it was my fault, I had a line that mounted the drive, and a few lines later I had some mount bind line operating on that first mount or something, but I still think the normal init system would just spit out that it can’t mount that and go on.
