Navi :therian:You might soon see me write an Arch Linux RFC that introduces a change <a href="https://wiki.debian.org/DebianRepository/UseThirdParty" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Debian did a while ago to stop third-party repo keys potentially being able to verify first-party repo signatures</a>.Because that's still a major issue.You add the thing for the feature levels? Yep, these keys may now technically be used to verify a bad package from the main Arch repos.<a href="https://catcatnya.com/tags/ArchLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ArchLinux</a>

Navi :therian:If you have lots of RAM available, but need to save some space on <code>/boot</code> with Arch Linux :arch_linux: when using <code>mkinitcpio</code> (default initramfs setup): Set <code>MODULES_DECOMPRESS</code> in your <code>mkinitcpio.conf</code> to <code>yes</code>. The default zstd compression will ensure the initramfs image on /boot to be smaller than if this option were not enabled, but RAM usage may be higher when booting.<a href="https://catcatnya.com/tags/ArchLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ArchLinux</a> :arch_linux: <a href="https://catcatnya.com/tags/initramfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#initramfs</a> <a href="https://catcatnya.com/tags/mkinitcpio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mkinitcpio</a>

Adam HonseKinda want to try this setup on an actual Steam Deck next. SteamOS is nice but I haven't tried running alternative OSes on my Deck besides a very early <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/postmarketOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#postmarketOS</a> build. I'd prefer to go with <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ArchLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ArchLinux</a> in this case though because of how well gaming is already covered by Arch (AUR, gamescope-session-steam-git, mesa-tkg-git, Steam itself, etc).SteamOS being immutable is nice for its intended purpose, but it kinda sucks for a general purpose PC especially for low level development purposes.

Adam HonseReinstalled <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ArchLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ArchLinux</a> on my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ROGAlly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ROGAlly</a> Z1 Extreme, dual booted with Windows 11. KDE is a nice interface but is pretty awful to use with only a touchscreen so I installed <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/phosh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#phosh</a> with my custom <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/squeekboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#squeekboard</a> layouts and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TouchpadEmulator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TouchpadEmulator</a>. This could be the best UI for "desktop mode" on touchscreen gaming handhelds if it handled fullscreen games (especially with UI scaling above 100%) better and supported Variable Refresh Rate. It is so nice for everything besides gaming.

ilyessJust updated a package with yay and watched it pull, patch, and build from source like it’s nothing. Still wild that this is just normal on Arch.

Called from the main process was OK.The solution was to change the sorting algorithm by the `kind="stable"` parameter.

House Panther :verified_paw:So I had my first ever breakage of <a href="https://goblackcat.social/tags/ArchLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ArchLinux</a>. I couldn’t figure out why when I issued the command pacman -Syu, it couldn’t find any updates. That just doesn’t happen in rolling release distribution. I checked the pacman database for corruption and it was seemingly fine because I could query it. Nevertheless the Arch wiki to the rescue. I rebuilt the database from the log file. But then a weirdness happened. The database reported that I had a newer version of the packages than the ones on the servers. No way. I thought my 3 year old install was completely hosed at this point. It turns out that that was a simple fix. I just needed to install a package called reflector to fix my package mirror list. Phew! A complete reinstall would not have been much fun. Thankfully Linux is not like Windows where reinstalling is often not the answer.

emoxⒶUltimamente, dopo una nuova installazione di Arch, ho notato che Libreoffice non aveva lo stesso aspetto di sempre e che non dipendeva dal tema......insomma mi sembrava un pò bruttino e che non si integrasse come avrebbe dovuto con il mio DE, LXQt. Per cui, grazie alla <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/LibreOffice" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">ArchWiki</a> che è sempre una notevole risorsa, ho appreso che <a href="https://github.com/LibreOffice/core/blob/master/vcl/README.md" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">VCL</a> è responsabile dell'aspetto e che in teoria dovrebbe restituire un output il più coerente possibile e che meglio si integra con l'ambiente grafico in uso.....non nel mio caso visto che Libreoffice si avviava in gtk3. Quindi è bastato forzare la variabile d'ambiente per qt6 nel percorso <code>/etc/profile.d/libreoffice-fresh.sh</code> per risolvere. Scusate il pippone mattutino😅 ma ho pensato che magari ha qualcun*, forse, potrebbe tornare utile <a href="https://www.foxyhole.io/tags/Archlinux" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Archlinux</a> <a href="https://www.foxyhole.io/tags/Linux" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://www.foxyhole.io/tags/Libreoffice" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Libreoffice</a> <a href="https://www.foxyhole.io/tags/LXQt" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LXQt</a>
