It is not only BG3, it also happens in Skyrim SE, Fallout 4, nothing but Vulkan errors. I turn off Vulkan in Lutris and they run.

Some say the kernel is the issue, but I have tried a few different ones and same issue. I am at a loss. I am running Arch, AMD GPU.

I did an upgrade from 5.27 to 6.01 or whatever the latest is, and I had to go through themes and setting files and remove a lot of the old plasma 5 files. It is kind of a pain. I recommend doing a complete reinstall. I am sure some settings file from kde 5 is messing with your configuration. It is a pain, but probably the easiest in the long run.

Love both of those distros, Endeavour is committed (their philosophy) to no GUI, only CLI commands, so keep that in mind. Garuda Gaming edition is the best gaming distro out there imo, handy GUI to configure everything, great privacy controls/browser. Manjaro should never be used, they hold back packages for “testing” which goes against Arch in general and can break AUR packages, thus your system. Another good Arch distro, minimal with optimized kernels, a privacy browser based on Firefox, is CachyOS. Those three I would recommend for Arch, besides Arch itself.

Yeah, they don’t advertise it, but if you are on the forum, the devs let you know, especially if you need help with any GUI…“We don’t support…” Not saying the devs are bad, lovely people, but that is just their thing.

Me vs my ISP

So I was looking into getting port forwarding set up and I realized just how closed-off the internet has gotten since the early days. It’s concerning. It used to be you would buy your own router and connect it to the internet, and that router would control port-forwarding and what-have-you....

Same, never use their equipment if possible, cheaper and you are in control.

I have been meaning to cancel my Prime membership. Prices are high, shipping hardly gets anything to me on time. Who can find anything on Prime Video with their horrible interface? Not worth the price. Time to put on my pirate’s hat and save a buck.

Adblocks for TTV?

I just checked out Twitch again after a while and WOW has that site gotten shitty. But I’m trying to watch someone and really don’t want ads every few minutes. Instead of paying Bezos to remove half the ads, how can I configure my uBlock Origin to block them all for free?

Have you tried changing either your wifi router or computer/devices to use Ad blocking DNS? The two most popular ones are AdGuard DNS and NextDNS.

With that said, it is typically recommended to use add blocking add-ons in the browsers, etc, because the above DNS blocking options can break websites, etc.

Red Hat linux piracy?

I have a fedora but I’m curious about Red Hat Enterprise Linux because they say fedora is a community version of red hat. I pirated Windows in years and it’s really easy but is there any way to crack RHEL? I know it’s not magical and I can use a free distro and have anything I need but for the sake of curiosity I need to...

Pirating linux…that is a concept you don’t come across everyday. Dude, just move off of Red Hat and onto a linux distribution that is not a corporate mega-whatever. Debian, Arch…take your pick. Open source is free ship that lets you pirate from the corporate/priopriatary seas. Don’t make it harder.
