@tekato That doesn’t solve for x2go, rdp, or guacamole, I’ve got customers using all of those plus vnc.
2·1 day ago@Sheldan Yes I am referring to the game, back when I had tried on vmware it was still the main commercial one that I was playing, I have since moved to Insanity Flyff. One of those minor continuities in my life.
29·1 day ago@NABDad I don’t think we’re allowed to have cows where I live at all, and horses are only permitted if you have five acres or more.
I’m not afraid of change, I just want to ensure change is for the better and that change isn’t in a direction we haven’t already tried 3000 times always ending in disaster, socialism/communism being a case of the latter, and Wayland being a change that I consider to be the former, it doesn’t network and that was the whole point of X windows. It was a NETWORKING window system. If you just need local graphics Wayland is fine but it doesn’t fit my use case.
@Magister @WhiteOakBayou There are a lot of things to like about MX, nice interface, I really like that you can boot up using either systemd or sys-V, since systemd tends to be a lot faster but also tends to break it makes it really nice to have a sys-v fallback when things do break. Support has been excellent, I’ve yet to have it take them more than three days to fix anything broken I’ve reported, contrast that with Ubuntu where if it happens within the next three major releases you’re doing good.
To be sure, the base install of debian is a everything and the kitchen sink install. There are MANY package the average person is not going to need.
Single GPU isn’t substantially harder than 2GPU pass through, that is what I have done, but it does require support by the UEFI bios and the GPU and not all support it.
@brian I have used it and with flyff at least the performance was far insuperior to kvm/qemu.
I’ve got a Gigabyte X299 Aorus Master with i9-10980xe overclocked at 4.8Ghz, two nvme drives mounted on the motherboard, this is about the most power hungry consumer level CPU you can get (maxes at around 540 watts), yet the ssd’s which are also fairly heavily used in a database, only run at about 29C. Perhaps your GPU is heating up your SSDs? I have no active cooling on mine either, just the cheesy heat sinks. I’m running 6.11.2, unfortunately 6.11 kernels past two have some code that breaks the i9-10980xe so stuck at that for the moment.
