It’s an Ubuntu downstream maintained by Linux box maker System76 which is targeted for both general usability and design/media applications. They will soon be debuting their own home-spun desktop environment, Cosmic DE, which is highly anticipated by the Linux community.
How does the community here feel about this distribution and the company that has brought it to us? How do you feel about the projects that they’re working on, and their goals for the distribution moving forward?
What GPU configuration do you have? I don’t have any of these issues. If NVIDIA, you have to wait for NVIDIA to release explicit sync Wayland drivers.
Inaccurate report,
I just ran Neovim in terminal and was used to Neovide, so I thought it was choppy.
Intel HD 630.
There is, however, a 2D game - which I am not going to disclose the name of - that’s pretty broken. (It uses Adobe Flash as an engine)
Also the steam client doesn’t maximize properly with tiling but I am sure that’s reported.
I have been daily driving Cosmic for a week now; it caused me Arch-syndrome, everyday I run
sudo apt updatehoping to get some polish to the desktop.Edit: there’s more…
Neovide’s transparency is completely broken, and shows a blank, though not a pitch black, color and screenshotting it results in seeing the text with a checkered background. (In the resulting screenshot only) (Running on Proton 8.0-5)
clipboard=unnamed plus, the setting supposed to unify Neovim’s clipboard and system’s, doesn’t work.clipboard: error : Error: target STRING not availableI also was unable to transfer a file to my phone using Cosmic Files, but Nemo worked, though I read that’s fixed in some Blog.
Edit II: I just discovered
popdev:masterit seems to be a general unstable branch instead of just Cosmic things, but I took the risk and added it, I just have to remember to remove it once 24.04’s releasedWhat report are you referring to?
The thing you replied to; I don’t open social media often enough to reply on time, so I sent you a late reply.
