#Random Linux

[Throrik]

Anyone know how to log framerates (ideally frametimes) to a file in Bazzite?
MangoHud has been recommended but doesn’t seem to be available in Bazzite.

I haven't used Bazzite, but why wouldn't it be available? You can just use the Flatpak version.

flatpak install org.freedesktop.Platform.VulkanLayer.MangoHud

All these years i've been using Gnome disks and Gparted and i've only just realized that they both use lazyinit to format ext4 drives!

After years of thinking about it, I’m going all-in: switching from Fedora to FreeBSD 15 and using it as my full daily driver for the next 45 days.

No casual testing — this becomes my main workstation for work, browsing, development, and everything else. I’ll be living with the unified base system, legendary ZFS boot environments, simpler init, Ports collection, jails, bhyve, the Linux compatibility layer, and PF firewall in real daily use.

I’ll be completely honest in the check-ins: the wins, the frustrations, and the surprises. Toward the end, I’ll also test the upgrade to FreeBSD 15.1 when it releases on June 2nd.

This is the intro video to the full 45-day series.

Don't know if this is of interest to you.

Something else i've forgot when formatting storage drives with ext4 is that it reserves 5% of the blocks for root, it never crossed my mind to use the tune command.

If you’ve downloaded the Cemu Wii U emulator for Linux from the project’s official GitHub in the past few weeks, bad news: it added malware to your system when you ran it.

An announcement made by the team developing the open-source app say they recently discovered the Linux AppImage and ZIP of the Cemu 2.6 release available from their Github had been “compromised” with malware between 6 May and 12 May, 2026.

The Cemu Flatpak, as well as installers for other operating systems, were not affected.
