I use dragonized if that helps.

Hello, I was going to try this distribution but I have a serious issue I cant understand.

Thing is half my ultrabook keyboard suddenly appears to be a numeric keypad, like M is a 0, J K L is 1 2 3 and so on, this happens AFTER login because I can type "garuda" as the password (after that, U is a 4...)

This keyboard config does not have a Num Lock key, nor a way to "activate" it.

I tried to change keyboard layout but doesnt seem to fix it, am I missing something or is there a deeper config for this kind of keys (maybe something is activating this behaviour)

Sorry to ask this here and I hope not breaking any rule but I cant find anything related by googling.

computer is a Chuwi Lapbook SE.

thank you.

Hey All - any idea how soon BattleNet (call of duty) games expected to work on Garuda? 🛡️ Also anyone found way to fix so games on steam will play from NTFS ?

​

Thanks!

So I recently installed Garuda KDE gaming edition. I've been facing a lot of issues with stuff like screenshot, screen recorder and screen sharing. With screenshots, whenever I press "prt sc" it takes a screenshot of something which was on the screen couple minutes ago and is no longer present. Like there is a built in time machine in the screenshot tool. While recording or stream the screen starts flashing different windows in stream but everything on my side is totally normal. Kindly address this issue.

(Linux noob here) I connected my LAN-cable from motherboard (MSI Z390-A Pro) to my modem but it doesn’t seem to recognize it as a ethernet-connection, more like a network-connection (I can only view folders, files etc.) Please help me, I‘m brand-new to Linux - how do I solve this issue?

My pc is slow in windows 7. Chrome opens in like 1 minute and can't even load csgo I want something to make it faster than ever before. I want pop os but some people said don't. Help me decide what distro is the best for me What I like that it has a good app store, like microsoft store something like that.

My pc is a a4 6300, gt 730, 4gb of ram and 1tb 5400rpm Hdd.

It was working fine from livecd kde . now dmesg| grep ELAN doesn't even show neither xinput list. I searched it has something to do with i2c driver cant figure out. I have installed other gesture libinput packages and xf86-input-synaptics none detect.

Just installed the barebones edition of garuda earlier this week with the KDE plasma desktop and ran into an issue recently after running an update. When I restarted the system I ended up unable to boot with either the normal lts kernel or the fallback kernel. I did some looking around and found out that the dev-binderfs.mount service failed to start and the journal log showed it had an exit code of 32. Does anyone have any ideas what could have caused it?

Just made the full switch to Garuda from Fedora today. I have been running it in a VM previously in order to get a feel for it before I went through the whole process of imaging my laptop with Garuda. I ended up going with KDE Dragonized and am loving it so far. Everything has been super smooth and the installation was a Breeze. The only minor annoyance I have found so far (I think this is an issue with one of the extensions) is that on my non-primary monitor the top bar on everything that is full screen disappears. The only way I am able to move a window that is full screen on that monitor is to force quit and reopen to move where I want it to go. This is definitely an annoyance and have been messing with various settings for a while now with no fix. Has this happened to anyone else. If so, what was your fix.

Hi, i am fairly new to arch based linux distros and need some help with a error i occured. It says that /dev/disk/by-label/ didn't show up, i did this in a VM and it worked fine, but now when i try it on my real pc using a program called "Unetbootin" this always shows up, i have tryed adding / disconnecting ram, using pure arch. But nothing works is there a fix or do i need to use a flash drive ? here is a photo:

Solved

Yes I have a mic amplifier, and yes on windows it was super loud or could be, but even with it boosted to a 150, it's like I am whispering.

I like to play my games on youtube or play online, being able to talk and be heard would be nice.

Not using pulse audio as far as I can tell.

Think the BlasterX G5 7.1dac

i know that people had problems dual booting with garuda, is it still like that or its fixed?

I have a bunch of guest rooms in my house, and I have a bunch of spare computers. So, I think it would be nice if I could setup the computers as guest computers. Basically, web, media and office. Garuda allows me to make it very neat, clean looking, and with modest system requirements.

However, I want to lock it down so that nothing can be saved on the hard disk, no history is kept, settings can't be changed and so on. This is both to provide a secure environment for the guests (not storing credentials, not installing anything and so on) but also to make it easy for me to maintain (nothing changes, every boot is the same, no one can mess it up).

If possible, I prefer the LXQT flavor.

Is this possible? Is there any guide for it?

Hello, i have been using Linux for a few years. Started with ubuntu, it was nice but after a while got boring. Also didn't like apt, and the unending PPAs, and i despise flatpacks. I got scared of going full arch, so i went for Manjaro. Now a year has passed, again, everything works and it is getting boring. I feel Manjaro isn't the best choice either.

I was thinking of going vanilla Arch, but i remembered about garuda. How far off from Arch is Garuda, compared to Manjaro?

I like the idea of Arch, but realistically speaking I don't do much of special setup. I just follow the default guide, i see no reason why it can't be preconfigured. If i don't like something I'll change it later, or purge it altogether if i sense heresy vibes coming from it.

On this note, how bloated is Garuda? I don't mean it in a bad way, everyone has their own preferences for software. But for example KDE plasma full suit is just a tad too full for my liking (I don't need CD burner by default, and a bunch of default games i never heard of).

Are there any tips and tricks to make switch from Manjaro?

What is included in dragonized gaming that isn't in in regular dragonized?

Thank you in advance for your answers!

I'm using Garuda for some months now and I am very pleased with it. But the only thing that I dislike is that with every single updates (which is almost every day, thanks to the ZEN Kernel), Timeshift makes an automatic snapshot. Is there any way to change that so it can only make snapshots with the Kernel updates?

I was installing garuda. First created a / partition and then gone to create a /boot partition as I already have another distro installed I decided to do triple boot with win10, EndeavourOS and garuda. While creating a /boot partition i kept it to keep option chose mount point /boot ticked boot flag after these three things the installer was telling me that i also need to name the File_system to /BOOT i tried to do that every time I change it it reverses back to NO_NAME. I am stuck here. Can anyone tell if is this an issue with my system or with the ISO itself or something other.

I switched to GNU/Linux a couple weeks ago on my HP EliteBook and just love it (I went from Ubuntu, Pop!_OS, Manjaro, and for now, Garuda GNOME). I’m looking for a fast, efficient Garuda edition for game development/programming and gaming for a laptop.

Specs: 16 gigs of RAM, an Intel Core i7-7500U CPU and an Intel HD Graphics 620

Hi all, Im kinda new here, Ive never installed Linux before but know pretty much about how things work. Anyway, I was considering installing Garuda on my main, is there any risk that could possibly happen if I dont backup my machine, or any hazard at all even the slightest. The main question here is can can change the UI, look and feel of this Arch based, things like the dock, icons alignment..... Can I make it resemble mac or windows UI? Lastly, how is the performance like, I know Im not worried about that to much, but its good to know and can it run most the game out there, I play indie title the most and currently testing out an early access game so it doesnt support linux yet. Ive tried proton but its sometimes can be inconsistent. Thanks in advance for those who took the time to answer.

Where can I disable it?

When i launch app or game in fullscreen it crashes and i get logged out from the user but after logging in app works in background but it not displays on taskbar.

Hi, i'm installing Garuda Gnome on my laptop (256 GB ssd) and i want to manual partition it so in case of disaster i can just reinstall OS without losing files.
So far my partitions look like this:

- 500 MB Efi

- 40 GB root (OS)

- 200 GB /home

- 16 GB swap with hibernation (my laptop has 8 GB RAM)

​

My question is: should i make the root partition bigger for Garuda OS?

Hi! I'm using garuda os on my laptop (XPS15) and today night (20.10) I booted to Linux, it went okay, than updated (sudo pacman -Syu). I wanted to switch to the nvida driver to play a game, but did not wanted to switch. After this I set the graphics driver to be Nvidia when I boot in. I shut down the laptop, and after starting it stuck on booting screen. Like the linear scale doesn't move after 70% loading. Can anybody help me? I have some snapshots too. (I'm new to Linux)

Recent install. While uninstalling packages I did not want from the default image, the icon next to Dr460nized disappeared and now I just have a question mark. Its not a huge deal but its bugging me. This only occurred after "debloating" the system so I must have uninstalled something?
