This worked. I haven’t checked the bios yet. If there’s an option to disable integrated graphics I will use it. For now I will just use the vars.

Why don’t more people use Linux?

Because Linux breaks randomly, in many cases without user interaction. New driver update - external monitor stops working, games break, etc. Official desktop widgets - tend to break without any reason. Apps don’t follow desktop theme.

I’m a software engineer and I work a lot and I want to spend my free time using OS, not fixing it. After my recent issues with graphic drivers I decided to buy a Windows PC just for gaming. I will stick with Linux for my home server and work.

Yeah, I think I messed it up :) Now my system starts in cli mode. Well, I wanted to nuke everything anyway so no harm done.

edit

I was able to switch to gui but still no luck with the gpu.

You might be right. I have a feeling that when I blacklisted nouveau rest of the stuff got deleted from this line. I’ll give it a try.

bat /etc/default/grub

I did all those things before I asked a question.

Already did that. Didn’t help.

It didn’t work. At this point I’m considering nuking the whole thing and start with the fresh system. If it won’t work I will buy a Windows PC just for gaming.

I don’t have a response to share but I always lose my mind when I see AWS error messages, especially when using bazillion layers like CDK for Terraform, executed from the shell script that runs a python script in the CI/CD pipeline.

One of the issues I will never forget was the debugging of permission issue. Dev reported an issue, something like “cannot access the SQS queue from a recently deployed script”. The error message was like “cannot access the queue due to missing policy in assumed role” (or something similar). So, I have checked the python script and related policies - all good. Next I’ve moved to a shell script, still no luck. After that I went through the CDK files, no issues. I was about to involve the AWS support when it turned out that the queue name has been changed manually in the AWS console. AWS, instead of point out that the queue is missing, raised an error about missing access permissions…

Installing drivers manually was the last resort. Before that I did the sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia.

Sorry about that, I forgot to add more details. I have updated my post.

While it looks interesting, how is it different from any other sticky notes apps already available?

Putting aside economical aspect, western civilisation in order to sustain itself, requires on average little above 2 children per household (can’t find the link to the study). Such number would provide enough “man power” to replace aging work force and would keep society going forward. This is the perfect world scenario. Unfortunately we don’t live in a perfect world and there’s nothing current governments can do to change it. It would require a lot of work, money and time and no government will risk long term investment because it won’t give much votes.

Now, let’s put this into perspective - https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/ethnicity-and-the-criminal-justice-system-statistics-2020/ethnicity-and-the-criminal-justice-system-2020

If you want to provide data, do it as a whokr, not what fits your point of view.

It’s funny how indigenous population who’s scared about their wellbeing is called “far-right”. Focus on stabbings, rapes and other pressing issues.

Yes, I do think something is missing here. As cold as it sounds, it’s the single person responsibility to provide for itself. If you are 70+ years old and you have nothing to support your retirement, it’s mostly your fault.

It’s amazing how people who blame boomers for all the evil in the world, are so sympathetic for other boomers who weren’t so lucky.

Don’t worry, it’s still in the top 10 /s

Devil’s advocate here. While I feel sorry for the people struggling with the housing crisis, it always puzzles me when the so called boomer generation is having problems with a living situation. Back then it wasn’t that hard to buy a house that by today’s standards would be enough to support retirement. I have a feeling that the Media are cherry picking sad stories to get the public’s attention (aka clickbait).
