Howdy, New monitor came in.  Found it on my porch.  Unboxed it and hooked it up.  Started with no xorg.conf file.  It's high res, plasma comes up so all that is fine.  Now comes the problem.  Everything is HUGE.  Even on SDDM screen, it's like it is zoomed in or something.  Icons are huge, fonts

Midnight Commander has been using geeqie for viewing images on my system. I did a world update last night. Apparently image-viewing responsibility has been handed over to /usr/bin/xdg-open which, on my system, uses mupdf for jpg+jpeg and google-chrome-stable for png+gif images. WTF!?!?!?

[gentoo-user] KDE6 and Pipewire control change

Howdy, As most, if not all, KDE users know, a while back KDE started using Pipewire.  After I saw how it worked, I kinda liked it because it gave me some controls I needed and they made it easier to switch audio around and adjust volume levels on different apps independently.  All things

Re: [gentoo-user] how to record mp3 stream

You can just dump the stream directly. Use an at-command or a cron-job to run wget or whatever, and then kill that job when you want the recording to stop. All players I've tried play such a dump just fine. Den 01.07.2024 15:14, skrev Michael: On Monday, 1 July 2024 11:39:09 BST Jacques
