How to get Inspiron 5577 to use dgpu with 4k external display? - sh.itjust.works
I just bought a 4k tv for the first time, and I want to use my old Inspiron 5577
with a GTX 1050 as a media PC for it. But, the laptop defaults to the igpu,
which only gives me a max of 24 (laggy) fps at 4k, and I can’t figure out any
way to make the laptop use the dgpu instead. I can run individual programs with
the dgpu, but not the screen itself. I’ve tried the Nvidia settings, and I’ve
also tried “sudo prime-select nvidia”, which completes and then doesn’t do
anything when I reboot. I’ve checked, and my bios doesn’t have an option to run
the dgpu only. Am I SOL? I really don’t want to have to buy a new media PC when
I literally have a graphics card in my laptop that can do exactly what I want
already.
Might be low hanging fruit, but I just got banned from memes.ml for saying what instance it's in.

Also, I don’t know how to see which mod/admin banned me, so if you know how to
in the modlog, definitely let me know. Banned for 7 days, so I’m not super mad
or anything - I just thought it was funny. Honestly I don’t blame them - I’d be
embarrassed about people finding out my community was on .ml too.
TIL it's against the rules to mention what instance it is

The comment in question: “To everyone arriving here from /all, remember that
this is a .ml community when you attempt to engage in good faith.” Edit: Sorry
for the double post - I just got back after being gone all day and didn’t
realize someone else had made a post about my comment! There’s a bit of
discussion here so I was going to leave it, but if the mods would rather delete
it, feel free!

[Question, Cinnamon 21] How to set a WINE program (SumatraPDF) as a default app for .pdf? - sh.itjust.works
I haven’t been satisfied with the pdf viewer options on Linux so far, so I
installed SumatraPDF through Wine and it’s working perfectly. But, I can’t seem
to figure out how to set it as my default app to open .pdf files. I’ve looked in
both the Preferred Applications app and in the right click Open With menu when
selecting a .pdf file. In the Open With > Other menu, I tried pointing directly
to the SumatraPDF app and setting it as default, but it failed to open the .pdf
file. Any ideas on how to get SumatraPDF to be the default app when I open .pdf
files?
