« on: November 14, 2021, 07:13:19 am »

Here is a description of how to set the time using command line.

You posted the link already.

... I'll post the link ...

You have to add amdgpu.aspm=0 on the kernel command line.

Applications and Porting / Re: Chromium and Ungoogled Chromium DNF Repository

« on: November 12, 2021, 06:33:38 am »

I wouldn't spend much effort into Chromium development. First, Google sucks. Second, Chromium is just fine, it works. I'm on version 93 or 94. But if you're on 70, 80 or 90 doesn't play a role.

But I'm willing to donate for Firefox improvements. To make it on par or surpass Chromium.
And I assume Mozilla is accepting upstream POWER support?

I'm pretty sure, in the long run it's better/ easier to support Firefox.

@MauryG5: Follow this guide and replace the line with your desired line or change the GRUB file manually:

@mcarden: Great. I have to blacklist AST on Void also, otherwise even with a xorg.conf file, it doesn't work. I hardly guess on Fedora it only works accidentally.

@mcarden: I would try to blacklist the AST GPU.

The Fedora maintainers has only to fix it. They know the fix long time ago.

Maybe you have to blacklist the AST GPU

On Twitter, you always get an answer very quickly.
Funnily I just noticed that the Talos-II lite is on backorder, too.

GPU Compute / Accelerators / Re: Which GPU would *you* choose?

« on: August 21, 2021, 06:00:51 am »

I assume you already have these GCN1.0 GPUs? They should work. Just try them out.

Price-wise, all GPUs are bad at the moment. The best is still a GCN4.0 RX550.

Navi is more or less well supported since kernel 5.6.13.

RDNA GPUs are not supported at the moment.

Here you can find a good overview:

I dunno what the problem is. I never tried to install MAME.
