How far does the rabithole goes ?

We may never know.

Status update

Finals over, still have to finish up an assignement.
Manjaro install looking good, tho i encountered a couple problems.

pulse_audio

The audio didn’t work at first, thought it was a weird thing, stareted looking around and seeing what I could do, I thought it’d be easy at first,so I started looking at the local configuration I had and seeing if I could fix it by tweaking things aroud, didn’t work though.

However, after skimming the web for a while I ran sudo install_pulseaudio and it worked !!!

NEXT.

nVidia Drivers

You know I’m all about that FOSS software right?
wrong lol
Anyway, when I was trying to install the proprietary graphic driver …
Yes

I click Yes, obviously, and then this happens;

SadCat

Well, well, well …

So yeah that kinda pissed me off, I wanted to fix it, but then my PREMATURE MICRO-OPTIMISATION ATTEMPT alarm revved up.

So I vowed to fix it when I’ll have the time^TM.

SCREEN TEARING

NOW THIS IS PISSING ME OFF.

AND IT’S ACTUALLY SO IMPORTANT I LITERALLY NEED TO FIX IT. ASAP.

So, when I just installed this and had firefox on it, I had no problems with using firefox whatsoever.

But suddenly I notice annoying screen tearing in the browser and in videos and it’s incredibly annoying.

Worse yet, when I try and go fullscreen, the firefox display just freezes completely.

Sadly (NOT REALLY LOL) this is probably going to need a fix for the problem I outlined earlier about nvidia drivers …

Muh minimalism

Not quite an issue but just an attempt at PREMATURE MICRO-OPTIMISATION, …

I was thinking I’d get rid of the bookmarks toolbar on firefox, in order to gain more screen space, and access the bookmarks myself (by figuring out where firefox keeps them) pipe that output to dmenu or something like that in order to automate it.

But again, not that important.

17:11- “solved” my nVidia issue

wrote that at 12:53, now i solved it, just two commands really, i removed the old one and installed the new one.

… not much troubleshooting happening here heh, … well, good for me i guess …
