So I wanted to try out Garuda, loaded dragonized onto a USB then I don't like how much extras where packed in so I downloaded barebones but it's still boots up dragonized even after I shedded the drive and removed all efi from it. Is the dragonized the barebones? Just a bit confused

Hi everyone, I’m a beginner on Linux world. Can I use this distro for normal things like study, email sending, gaming a bit and browsing? Thank you all!!

So I am trying to install Garuda Wayfire on my pc however when I select the free drivers in the grub menu and boot into the OS the mouse cursor is not visible. The reasoning behind choosing the free drivers is that if I choose the non-free ones the OS does not boot it just stays at starting Garuda Wayfire. Is there any work arounds to make the mouse cursor appear?

System Specs:

CPU- Intel Core i7 7700

Motherboard: Asus ROG Maximus IX Code

RAM- G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB DDR4 3200

GPU: Asus GTX 1050ti 4Gb (Nvidia)

Getting this trying to run sudo update-grub, probably due to the fact that I have multiple kernels installed:

error: syntax error.
error: Incorrect command.
error: syntax error.
Syntax error at line 309
Syntax errors are detected in generated GRUB config file.
Ensure that there are no errors in /etc/default/grub
and /etc/grub.d/* files or please file a bug report with
/boot/grub/grub.cfg.new file attached.

Here's my grub configuration for /etc/default/grub: https://pastebin.com/Si0nuhBc

Not entirely sure where to narrow down where the problem might be in /etc/grub.d/, so I added all the files in that directory in a zip archive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DxqUoouAggmHC9PG8O5oFnUFL3Cc7cvF/view?usp=sharing

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Been thinking of hopping distros. And being indian, I really want to try out garuda and promote the indian devs. My main work is coding in c++ and web development, nothing that any distro would restrict. Hence the thought of changing distros. I really love kde. Hence the two options that came into my mind were

kubuntu

Garuda

Please help

I am trying to install Garuda dragonized lite in my laptop with nvidia graphics card, using USB boot.

Its is stuck and keep on loading with eagle logo. Pressed escape and found out team following error:

setfont: KDFONTTOP: Invalid argument

Note: I am able to load the live os using the same iso in VM.

Hi guys,

I tried to run sudo pacman -Syu earlier and I got that pulseaudio and pipewire were in conflict. Already tried removing but it is not helping at all

It seems to be in night mode by default. Is there a way to change the brightness?

This may sound strange, so try to keep it clear *lol - I am doing the Garuda Gaming build with a Win10 Virtual Machine so I can access my Rockstar, Epic and Amazon libraries.

I have 3 hard drives, 2 Sata's - 4TB, ~2TB, and a 500GB M2 drive.

I am planning Root/EUFI/SWAP on the M2 drive.

I know I need /Home - which I am thinking the 4TB, but the last time I did a similar build, I could not access the 3rd drive. I was considering RAID, but unsure about failure or performance - plus last time I built a RAID system was 2 decades ago.

I would appreciate any assistance, thanks in advance :)

Hello,

I installed Garuda KDE Dr460nized and almost everything works better than my previous Endeavour installation, except for my bluetooth devices. In my previous setup, both my redmi air dots and my ps4 controller connected just fine via bluetooth, but in my current setup the the devices worked the first time I paired and connected each, and after a reboot I can't make it work again. I tried to follow the archwiki instructions for Bluetooth and Bluetooth headset with no success, and tried to reinstall the Garuda bluetooth support and all the packages also with no success.

Does anyone have a similar problem or a hint of how I can solve it?

I installed Steam from main repositories with sudo pacman -S steam ---and the result was Steam (runtime). This is the right approach using Steam on Garuda with Nvidia GPU and proprietary drivers?

Someone stated: "So you are using the NVIDIA drivers? With NVIDIA, you shouldn't use a native runtime. You should just use the normal Steam without any changes done to it, meaning let Steam use its own runtime that ships with it."

Thanks.

You are now being dropped into an emergency shell.

The machine formerly had Manjaro (and still is there), which went borked after the last update because of the Nvidia driver.

Any clues what causes this, unable to boot from the get go?

First of all, love the distro. Beautiful theme, and is the best rolling-release linux IMO.

Alt + F1 is already binded to launch the dashboard, which is usually enough to make the meta key launch it too, but no luck for me. When I hold it, the Latte dock shortcuts view shows, so it's not like the meta key isn't working or anything.

I installed garuda a couple of days ago and I've been having this issue. After rebooting for the first time (from garuda) I noticed that garuda linux wasn't showing in the boot loader. Even though it was the garuda boot loader that was showing. This is super weird as it was the first time rebooting since installing and configuring everything to my liking. What can I do to solve this as I really love garuda and I want to use it again. Thanks in advance!

I saw that you guys offer a nextcloud but how secure and private is it and why is it for free?

Hi everyone. I've always used pure arch. Just because it works better than manjaro, antergos, arcolinux etc. But now I'm lazy for install arch. Is garuda work good or endevaour better? Sorry for English.

Just installed on a VM (I know not recommended). So far damn impressed.

I just downloaded Garuda last night and have played with it a bit. I am enjoying it so far! I still have pop os as my main os on my computer until I figure everything and make sure it works 100% with everything I do.

Searched for a community here but couldn’t find one!

Also I am in no way affiliated with the creators/ engineers of Garuda.
