    Why not just log in as the user in TTY and then start it?

    I'n not sure I understand the use-case of why it needs a Plasma session to start a script that needs to keep running afterwards. If the script itself does not need a plasma session, then you can just start it as a user service with systemd.

    Maybe you where on an older Ubuntu LTS. I don't know which Ubuntu they consider "supported".

    I've been running my HA in Docker on Arch Linux for the last 4-5 years and I have never been notified that my OS is unsupported. Could be portainer related.

    You didn't mention in your OP that it had to be debian distro packages. I just gave examples of HA being packaged in other ways than a complete OS.

    It is both.

    I doubt they’re outright rejecting any idea of progress. They’re likely just not convinced by what the fancy options offer

    Exactly. I don't mind progress. But terminal emulators that does things you become dependant on, is not great in my opinion. Because what happens the day you only have a TTY to get things done? If you rely on all the fancy stuff, you would feel lost.

    So yeah, I am not convinced that I need my terminal emulator to be fancy. But some people clearly are, looking at the rest of the comments on the post.

    I think it depends on your usecase a lot. Most of the feedback is not related to games, so I don't think most of them experience your issue, because you alt-tab out of a loading game. Do you have any major issues that are not related to playing games?

    I can play games fine on Wayland, but I don't alt-tab out, so I haven't encountered what you have.

    Instead of just linking to the information, which may be removed in the future, you could have also pasted a snippet of a relevant section. Like:

    If --force is specified twice, the operation is immediately executed without terminating any processes or unmounting any file systems. This may result in data loss. Note that when --force is specified twice the halt operation is executed by systemctl itself, and the system manager is not contacted. This means the command should succeed even when the system manager has crashed.

    So this would be an issue for most rust-based packages in Debian Stable. The difference is that if bcachefs goes bad, you can loose data on your filesystem.

    If Gnome has issues but Plasma and Mate work fine, then it's likely not firmware related, but rather a process in Gnome that's using a core all the time. So find out what that process is, if it's a common thing on Gnome and if it will finish if given enough time.

    It's fast, but you are only installing base, linux and grub.

    base-devel should also be there, since it's assumed to be installed by any PKGBUILD you'd want to build with makepkg.

    Resolution restrictions on Plasma Wayland?

    Hi all. Happy KDE Plasma user for a long time and I generally love the desktop experience. But I do have one small issue. At work, I have 2x 4K displays. connected through a Dock. But in Plasma it's only able to give me around 1080p resolution on both of them. In contrast, the display manager SDDM and TTY displays 4k on each fine. So am I missing a trick to get the max resolution in Plasma? My install is Arch Linux, kernel 6.4.12, Plasma 5.27, Wayland session. I did install the `displaylink` AUR package, as I thought it might be the dock limiting the video output, but it isn't as TTY and SDDM seems to display it correctly. Happy to hear any thoughts and any ideas. :) EDIT: The screens turn on and work fine with 4K resolutions in a Plasma X11 session.

    Using Linux in a Windows work environment

    My work place is a Microsoft shop through and through, so all their stuff is based in Azure, Active Directory, Outlook, O365 and Citrix. And they provide my with a Windows laptop for work, which is really great. The only issue I have with it, is the Windows part. So I took it upon myself to see if I can use a Linux install for work in a Windows environment. So I took my already installed private Linux laptop to work and it seemed to be going alright, expect that it's an old laptop at this point, so the GPU was not good enough to run the screens and the Bluetooth version was to old for the peripherals. So this weekend I took the plunge. I cloned the Windows drive with CloneZilla (in case of emergency, you know) and installed Arch Linux on my work laptop as the only OS. And so far, everything has worked. Except for 1 small detail that I totally forgot about! Printing. Specifically label printing, as we do ship some stuff around the country. The printer in question is a Zebra label printer G420-something and is set up on the internet Windows network at work. I've been at work all day and I haven't been able to setup this printer at all. This is mostly a rant and acknowledgement that running Linux in a Windows work environment is possible, but it's also a small whimper for help to see if anyone has managed to be able to connect to a network Windows printer. I've setup a default Samba and Avahi system, but it won't "probe" for the printer. I don't know the exact name/hostname/IP of the printer either.
