Garuda on Surface Pro 5 - performance nightmare in c/[email protected]

Yeah, I'm sure Bluetooth is just from something I missed. Some config I need to update, or something.

Touchscreen and pen both work perfectly with the new kernel.

Quick follow-up, because tonight I installed EndeavourOS on my Surface Pro 4. (It's not Garuda, but it's still Arch.)

If you can follow instructions and copy/paste Pacman commands, you can install the Surface kernel. I did hit a couple of unexpected errors along the way, but the error messages were very specific. So it was easy to resolve them.

The instructions page is written very well, and there's a whole section dedicated to Arch.

There are only two things I haven't done yet: set up secure boot, and enable Bluetooth. Both of those things are pretty well documented, I just haven't tried to do it yet.

Either way, as long as it's painted in stripes. It has to be stripes, right?

I didn't play Stardew Valley because YOU made me sign a blood oath that I wouldn't.

Frankly, that leaves you with two options:

  1. Be patient and learn, so eventually you have a working system.

  2. Don't have a working system.

The Surface Pro is a very proprietary device. It requires the extra work in order for Linux to function on it.

There are communities of people who will be happy to help you on your journey to learn, but unless you go through the effort you won't solve your problem.

On the one hand, that outfit doesn't seem very practical for most things.

On the other hand, if the world is destroyed and you're barely encountering other people... fuck it, I guess!

Help making system wake up to keyboard (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hello! New to Bazzite, and have a system running great. There's just one thing I'm having trouble with: I want the system to wake up from a sleep state when it detects signal from a keyboard/mouse.

I tried following this guide: https://askubuntu.com/questions/848698/wake-up-from-suspend-using-usb-device

It seems straightforward enough, and even though that's Ubuntu, I saw buses were set to "disabled." So I tried writing the rc.local, but it still won't wake up, even though the devices have power.

Am I missing something? Or can anyone point me to a better reference? Thanks in advance.

Tried out my new soldering iron tonight. (sh.itjust.works)
 

Worked on a friend's AC power adapter, the cord had gotten cut. Just a simple two-wire cord, nothing too complicated.

Didn't do a perfect job with the heat shrink tubing, but still made good connections and it'll be safe to use.

Wish I had upgraded my soldering iron sooner. The old one didn't heat nearly as evenly as this one.

As an added bonus, it literally looks like shit, too!

As I sat there, at my desk in my office, the sun slowly sank from high in the heavens; soon, nightfall would bathe the landscape in blue-black darkness, smothering the world outside my window. (sh.itjust.works)
 

I sat there for a long while before the crying began, resonating up from beneath the creaky floorboards - and I smiled, a toothy grin slowly spreading across my face... because I knew my work was only just beginning.

Work-in-progress DSi "GB Macro" (sh.itjust.works)
 

Had nearly all the parts lying around, so I put this thing together.

I wanted to add stereo speakers, but it's hard to find good wiring diagrams for such a niche thing. So, mono for now.

The motherboard has a bad cartridge slot. So I designed and printed a custom speaker holder that fits into the cartridge slot. All pressure fitted, no glue.

Everything works so far. Just waiting for a new shoulder button/SD slot cable, so I can finish it up and load up some GBA games. :)

LXLE still good for older devices? (sh.itjust.works)
 

A few years ago, LXLE was my distro of choice for older hardware.

I haven't used it in a while, and now I'm trying to revive an HP Stream (AMD/4GB RAM/32GB SSD).

Anything else I might want to try first, or is LXLE still considered good for lightweight/feature rich?

And that it's genetic, so that it's passed down to all his descendants; and that all people who marry into the family also have it happen to them
