Hey anyone running #GarudaLinux - I'm not but two of my friends are, and I have a couple of questions I was hoping could be answered.

  • One of them can't upgrade their system at the moment as librewolf can't resolve the dependency libvpx.so=11-64

  • The Other hasn''t been able use Blender for the last 2 months because Python is incompatible (apparently a function name changed to do with string manipulation)

    • Any advice on how I can help them fix this?

    Since having Plasma and COSMIC on the same machine causes all sorts of issues, I’ve assigned the task of keeping an eye on COSMIC to Hevy.

    COSMIC is still missing features I’d like to see, but it’s coming along nicely.

    * The artifacts around the windows are coming from the COSMIC Screenshot utility.

    One of the nice things with Garuda Mokka is you get some ricing, applications, tools etc. ootb. But all can be adjusted, turned off or even deinstalled quite easily. Everything has been added as separate packages, not meta packages. Which means I can deinstall KDE Connect separately, without any complaints about Plasma Meta being broken. That's great 👍🏻.

    The Garuda Mokka spin is a customized version of KDE, using the Catppuccin color palette. Beautiful and of course all goodies that can be expected, like Snapper btrfs snapshots etc. Noice.

    Appo is back and better than ever! He was running macOS as a BlueBubbles host, but I never used it, so he sat unused for nearly a year until I brought him back to life with Garuda Linux!

    He’s a bedroom PC connected to my TV and stereo HomePod mini pair at the moment. Whatever I can’t play though my AppleTV I can play on Appo and still get stereo sound on the HomePods!

    @rklinux #GarudaLinux is my new favorite distro. It’s #Arch, but opinionated and comes with some very nice built-in tools.

    I use the #Plasma “Mokka” edition. I was so impressed with its speed and flexibility compared to Fedora that I started installing it on every computer I own. It’s not as friendly as Fedora, but it has some great built-in tools, and I’m at the point now where I can manage things by myself and fix my own mistakes…mostly.

    @sturmsucht @berniethewordsmith After looking around for a distro that played nicely with Davinci Resolve (they suggest Rocky, but I did Not Like) I ended up using Garuda, which is a similar gamer focused distro, but Arch-based. It provided easy installation and tweaks to get everything working without too much fuss. Apart from the lurid colour scheme (think 17 year old boy's idea of cool desktop theme) it was a rock-solid desktop for $dayjob. My later installs have all been Arch from scratch but it was a good way to get into the distro.

    NGL, having automatic display brightness again on my 11-year-old MacBook Pro is pretty freaking sweet!

    Garuda Linux is working so well on this old tank that I might actually purchase a new battery for it and put it back into service! The only thing not working up to spec is the built-in BCM4360 Wi-Fi, forever stuck on 2.4GHz, but remedied with a USB dongle.

    @itsfoss I've become a big fan of #GarudaLinux. Really any Arch distro, but I really love the cosmetic touches in the Garuda flavors.

    #GarudaLinux works so well on my 10th-gen laptop, I thought surely it won’t be able to work on my old 2014 iMac, it’s probably too old.

    Garuda Linux: Hold my beer. And don’t call me Shirley.

    After the debacle that was Manjaro a few years ago, Garuda has restored my faith in Arch distros.
