Just wish it was in the Pop repo(s).

Hello guys, for some reason my screen freezes and i can't do anything...

i did have a Twitch stream going on, and I can still hear the audio. So it seems like my machine is still running, but keyboard and screen are frozen. Any clues what to do? What do you guys do when that happens? I dont really wanna manually power off my computer

I recently installed POP OS on my laptop with

Ryzen 5 5600H Nvidia GTX 1650 8GB Ram (planning to upgrade +8 or 16GB) 512 GB Nvme SSD by WD

Whenever I try to run apps or start a application or the whole OS is completed laggy and stutring then 3 crome profiles open on my Laptop together with each having more than 20+ tabs open at the same time with a live wallpaper in background in my Window 11.

Please guide me to the solution.

Thank you.

So I have 2 monitor (HDMI and DisplayPort converted to HDMI)

the problem is everytime i turn off the 2nd monitor, and turn it on, it got back to low resolution (1920x1280 x 139Hz), while what I want is both at high resolution 3840x2160 x 30Hz (note: other monitor is always correct 3840x2160 x 60Hz), so I have to set it again and again everytime I turn it on.

the position of the monitor is already correct (like the settings being saved properly), but the resolution is not.

How to make it saved properly?

same question just with picture: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1512418/how-to-keep-monitor-resolution-configuration-everytime-reconnect-turn-on-monitor

I'm using AMD 6600 gpu if that matters.

Hello, I've looked for this but I can't seem to find anything.

Is there a way to hide title bars only when tiled mode is on? Or even better, only for tiled windows? (e.g. exclude floating windows). Or at least hide them via a custom shortcut.

As the title suggests, I'm hoping for - a shot in the dark - that someone can chime in with advice or better still, experience, on what model or solution could work to get WiFi working with a fresh install of Pop_OS on an old(ish) HP Desktop?

Thanks for all advice/comments

Keep running into some weird issues that I think could be fixed by refreshing the base install, but I don't want to lose all my files

Hey,
I'm thinking about getting an Nvidia GPU for Stable Diffusion. This brings up the question:

1. could I use my AMD GPU as main and use the second gpu, in this case only for stable diffusion?

2. if no to my first question, can I switch between external AMD GPU and external Nvidia GPU in Pop OS without completely rebooting the pc?

Guys, Anyone here running a triple monitor setup ? I am on a Dual Monitor Setup and thinking of jumping to that. My ideal setup would be 1920 x 1080 x 60 Hz for all 3 over HDMI.

Note - This is not for Gaming but for Work.

libEGL fatal: DRI driver not from this Mesa build ('23.2.1-1ubuntu3.1~22.04.2' vs '24.0.3-1pop1~1711635559~22.04~7a9f319')

I can't find any useful info on the net...
any help thanks....

One of the things I like about using Geary on PopOS is that I can have it start in the background on startup and it stays out of my way until a notification pops up informing me of a new email. Also like the badge notifications with an email count on the Geary icon in the dock. Does anyone know if there are plans for an integrated mail applet for the new COSMIC desktop? I'm hoping to have a mail client run in the background on startup then have pop-up notifications when a new email comes in. Can't wait for COSMIC regardless!

So I re-installed my Pop_Os reccently, but I don't remember if I used the nvidia iso or the integrated iso. When I checked today, NVIDIA is mentioned in the switcher, but nvidia-smi and and the nvidia xserver settings gui are not installed on my system. Did I install the integrated one? Is the switcher found in the integrated iso too?

So as the title says I'm now stuck onmy laptop splash screen. Was booting fine but after my dad turned it off using the laptop power button while I was sleeping now it simply refuses to go past it. I've tried going into recovery mode but it just says efi stub: loaded initrd from command line option. I'm honestly at a loss as to what to do. Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated

Hello everyone, Id like to ask for help to solve a problem on my distro not detecting audio, I made a mistake messing around with pipewire trying to get DIscord audio on screen share to work, i know this is probably really dumb but id like to try to solve it without having to repair the OS, thanks a lot!

Hello everyone, I'm new to Linux and just made the switch from windows 11. So far so good I have pop OS up and running and all the games I want to play function perfectly. I use my laptop for video editing as well and made the switch to Kdenlive. It does seem like the OS is using my intel gpu while running kdenlive. I'm running a laptop with both on board graphics and an RTX 4050. How do I force the use of my 4050 when using kdenlive? Thanks in advance.

Will the new Cosmic DE have VRR capability for gaming? I have an AMD card. Will it be available for both Nvidia and AMD?

Hi guys

I decided to put a new battery on an old macbook pro mid 2012 and installed popOS, and I've been very happy with it so far. Looks beutiful, like new and performance wise seems to do what I needed it to do. (I used for work and data analysis)

not too long after I put in the new battery i noticed that the charging takes at least 4-5 hours until full (a long time in my perception), then I only get just over 2~2.5h of battery, I also noticed that the reading of the battery while charging appers very inconsistent, sometimes It shows like charging and I get the orange light in the connector but sometimes it goes green while it's not even fully charged. it also gets rather hot in the charging area when you touch around where the connector is on the macbook pro. could this be that the charger is not that good (it's an after market charger)

I looked into the battery health and I was expecting no that much difference between energy full and energy design but I got 59 / 65 with only 9 charging cycles... is this normal for a new battery, or would this be sufficient to ask for a replacement under warranty?

opinion and insights are welcome.. Thank you.

My whole desktop picture has freezed 2x this week. It happens when im inside Lutris for some reason. Im not doing anything particular. I am literally just using Lutris.

I had to manually power off and on my computer again. Things seems to run in the background, even though my picture hangs.

Any clues or ideas what I can do if it happens again?

It might explain my audio issues while gaming (crackling noises, noise distortion). Any ideas how to solve this?

Thinking about getting a XPS 13 9310/15, but I want to know if the stylus’ work on Pop. I’ve heard some work on Ubuntu, but I want to be careful before dropping the cash on a laptop.

Every time I restart my laptop, Bluetooth automatically turn on even after I turned it off and poweroff the laptop. I don't know is this problem with pop OS or GNOME 42. I don't have this issue on fedora.

Help!

When I am using neovim or vscode on pop os default desktop manager, the scroll feels faster and smooth, but when I am using i3 window manager, the scroll is slower and feels a bit laggy which is negligible, but it irritates me everytime I scroll.

I've been using Pop OS for quite a while and really enjoy it. Mostly on my desktop and my Asus G15 2021, both working flawlessly (the latter was a pleasant surprise, I expected plenty issues and had precisely zero).

Surprisingly my newish Lenovo Z16 Gen 2 is having issues though - the trackpad sometimes works and sometimes doesn't after booting up (trackpoint always does though) and the microphone isn't detected. The trackpad isn't listed by xinput.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try? I've tried some suggestions about tweaking kernel boot params and bricked the install once already. For a developer I'm embarrassingly unskilled with Linux administration so any help is appreciated!

I'm in the process of moving to pop!_os, with the goal of learning how to develop native pop!_os apps. My current operating system is fedora, and that has some files on it i'd rather not lose. While creating a live environment using the official guide (with gnome disks), I saw the thumb drive i'm supposed to install from also has another partition added to it called writable. Conveniently, that partition is in fact writable.

My question: this drive has 100gb of space on that writable partition, can i copy all the files i want to keep from my original operating system on there, so that they will be available to me after i install pop!_os?

Thank you in advance :) If this is possible that would be a very convenient way to switch.

Hi all,

I see there was a thread on this, but it was deleted for some reason. I've been unable to install pop shell on gnome 46 on tumbleweed. I understand this is a pop_os subreddit, but pop_shell continues to be maintained for gnome, at least for now, and I'm unsure where else to turn for help regarding the same.

How often are the packages in pop! os's repos updated?
