Oh no, anyway

Boots into snapshot

[-] TheTrueLinuxDev@programming.dev 16 points 1 year ago

Yup and I am getting sick of hearing this even on Arch Linux. Like, mofo, you could literally run a snapshot or backup before upgrading, don't blame us if you're yoloing your god damn computer. Windows have exactly the same problem too and this is why we have backups. Christ.

On my Arch Linux Install, I literally have a Pacman Hook that would forcibly run backup and verify the said backup before doing a system-wide update.

Not necessarily, you still need backups or snapshots especially on home directory in case software have a nasty bug like deleting your data.

Laughs in isolated flatpak

... but seriously most of my userspace software cant even access my filesystem? So even if some software blows up i doubt it could do any damage.

The combination of nixos to have a practical unbreakable system and flatpaks to protect your userspace is pretty great. Highly recommend it. - But having backups is of course still advisable as a 3rd layer of protection, in case of hardware failure.

You forgot a word, I guess you meant Nvidia GPU. Not that it’s accurate still.

it's amd gpu and I'm trying to install opencl

[-] AProfessional@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Please don’t say you installed the proprietary driver…

You can install rocm but it still kinda sucks.

[-] Scoopta@programming.dev 14 points 1 year ago

It's the proprietary driver GPU experience. All the proprietary drivers can leave you hanging like this

Correction: Using NVidia GPU on openSUSE experience

Might be true, honestly. I'm on NixOS using the proprietary drivers for my 3080 and 4090. No issues, took one line of configuration. I do have to stay on X11 unfortunately until Wayland supports the real drivers at least (though i hear that's being worked on, maybe already working?).

For all of NixOS' pain, it really does make some things awesome and simple.

[-] igorlogius@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

totally agree

[-] noddy@beehaw.org 14 points 1 year ago

Analyzing the symptoms, I'm afraid to say, you might have nvidia.

[-] muleunchangedstarved@programming.dev 9 points 11 months ago

Ok I did it! opencl works and computer has gui. nice and updated

[-] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

chroot goes brrrr

[-] RiQuY@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Never happened to me, yet. Every update ran correctly and if there were any package conflicts it will prompt you several choices.

[-] somegeek@programming.dev 2 points 11 months ago

This is so true. I still think opensuse is great but it didn't work out for me AT ALL. almost anything I tried to do faced with issues.
