  • What troubleshooting steps did you take so far? I would try these:

    • different OS, maybe a live usb running fedora or ubuntu if it is possible to emulate the workload where this appears
    • bios reset to defaults, no OC not even XMP
    • memtest, either the memtest86+ boot iso or the runtime memtester can detect obvious errors
    • long smart self test on OS drive and an fsck or scrub based on FS

    Also the logs show a very old nvidia gpu which is not supported by the new driver. I don't know if this can cause crashes, haven't used one in ages, maybe someone else has more insight.

  • I'm using suspend on my desktop running Manjaro KDE. To reduce power usage it goes to sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity and wakes up on mouse or keyboard input. Aside from some flaky kernel versions and after underclocking an unstable EXPO profile it's pretty stable, even games continue to run after wakeup.

  • That monitor will hold it back. 1080p wouldn't be bad if modern games run without TAA blur, but most games require it. Even a cheap 144hz IPS 1440p will give you a better experience.

    • Yeah. So I guess the next question for me is, does that mean that FSR four is going to be exclusive to,
    • look, I would say it's right now it has to be because of what I just said. It requires a lot of compute to be able to generate the pixels.

    Just confirmed that at least on launch it will be RDNA4 exclusive. I just hope it can run on other hardware even if it is a dedicated NPU in mobile chips.

  • That ATX board would be great. The mATX B650M PG is also better than the previous one, it is good enough. If you can find the B650M-HDV/M.2 in stock that is even better if you don't need 3 m.2 slots.

    That monitor was indeed a lucky deal. It looks to be a good combination for this setup.

  • The draft is pretty good. Only a few points to consider changing:

    • That is an entry level Motherboard which may limit your upgrades in the future. It overheats with a 16 core ryzen 9.
    • The ram size is good, but the speed and latencies are just as important nowadays. A 6000 MT/s CL30 Expo ram could improve CPU performance, but it's a kind of OC so not every combination is fully stable at the highest speeds.
    • Especially with competitive and indie games it's easy to run them at high FPS. I would consider getting a 1440p high refresh rate (144+ Hz) monitor if you don't have one already. It's a huge upgrade coming from 1080p60Hz.
  • Permanently Deleted

    Jump
  • As an Android flavour it should be safe after uninstalling all apps associated with the university. Did any of them need a "device owner" permission? That's the only way to be more persistent on Android without root access.

  • The FS feature is great, it's just cumbersome to use without a tool.

    Snapper works well for a local backup like history both against botched updates and accidental deletion, but eats up the free space with the default settings.

    Timeshift is an easy to use GUI but doesn't support non-default partitions.

    Also the quota support had a nasty side effect: freezing the whole system on snapshot deletion.

  • Games @sh.itjust.works

    Temporal anti-aliasing: a blessing or a curse?

  • Thanks for the links! I updated my config from z3fold to zsmalloc and adjusted the vm.page-cluster to test these out.

    Reading a bit more, I think when using large max_pool_percent (>30) with Zswap the two solutions are more similar than not. A crucial difference is what use-case is more acceptable since Zswap can cause unresponsiveness (and potential lockup) under high memory pressure. While Zram could result in an OOM crash in a similar worst-case scenario.

  • Stormgate

    It's like 90% StarCraft 2 and 10% Warcraft 3. The competitive RTS part is promising but it didn't show me anything new. Depending on the lore and campaign it may get more interesting, so far it's neutral.

    Millennia

    It starts very similarly to Civ 6 with even more kinds of resources. The current version of the UI seemed confusing and the poor performance (on linux) stopped me from finishing the demo.

  • Btrfs with compression enabled and subvolumes set.

    And enable/automate maintenance services for BTRFS. For example: balace should be run on heavily used system disks or scrub could help detect errors even on single disks.

    ZRAM (With proper sysctl.conf like PopOS does).

    Could you explain the preference of ZRAM over ZSWAP? I thought the latter was the more advanced and better performing solution. Is there some magic in Pop's config?

  • Happy to help! Tough you are right, this is a rather generic error that doesn't help much just confirms that the GPU is the issue.

    At this point it could be a driver issue since there are similar open bug reports. A hardware problem is still possible since you previously said that it's unstable on windows too, and power related issues can also lead to this error message.
