  • Good information here about EXO, and ChromeOS:

    Is Exo going to continue to exist as a Wayland compositor? I figured it was going to be retired as ChromeOS turned into an Android overlay…

    Yes, becoming Android overlay removes Chrome from the OS so Exo is going to retire. We still have to maintain Exo experience until the all ChromeOS device reach AUE or be updated to Android. Latest device AUE date I see are in 2033.

    If folks don’t want Exo be listed we’ll just have Chromium here. Edited 1 week ago by Fangzhou Ge

    I’m fine either way, if the Aura Shell is going to be around for a while, then it makes sense to include it.

    I don’t even knowed that Chrome OS is/will be replaced by Android as an overlay.

    Welcome. This is normal. It will be worst later (worst vision, worst reflex, laziness, etc). Just enjoy that your are alive and you will see new iterations (maybe HL3, someday) and new good games. You can not go back to your twenties or beyond, with all your over-the-top reflex, stress-free, free-time, and un-experienced view to be easy surprised. Just enjoy other things, other game types. Never play by obligation.


  • The first improvement (Media Foundation by FFMPEG) could be significant. Currently, VALVe generates large shaders to re-render those Media Foundation videos into other free codecs. These shaders can be several gigabytes in size for some games with lengthy videos. With FFMPEG, those videos could be played without being re-encoded as shaders.














  • Hahaha. Common problem with multiscreen with different resolutions. Your laptop screen is below and left of your main display, and X11 renders this black “virtual screen”.

    There are multiple solutions:

    a) Set your screen resolution and position through KDE Plasma SystemSettings and push the button “apply to SDDM configuration” (I think Plasma 6.0 removed this option, try to find it in the SystemSettings KCM SDDM section).

    b) The another solution is the old one. Create a file into /etc/X11/xorg.conf/display.conf with the proper values of position and resolution. Search in a wiki about examples (archlinux wiki?).

    c) There is a third one that I used few years ago. SDDM allows you run any command after the screen initialization. So you can exec your xrand command here. Search about /etc/sddm.conf
