Anti-Virus for what use? I never saw a virus on my Linux computers in more than 25 years.
To collect information on our Linux hard drives and sell them to companies for their statistics?

Mesa 24.1.0 released with big improvements for NVK, Zink, Explicit Sync

Hello, to enable Zink with a AMD GPU, I have to use this variable environment: MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink
Someone knows if this variable environment works with NVK too?

Quoting: jordicomaInteresting. When it suports firefox (with open standards) and radeon gpus I'll try.
Hopefully someone will make it, as is opensource.

Same idea here.
It's a nice and awaited project from my side, the possibility to play all my Steam games anywhere, on any screen (TV, Pad etc...) by the Cloud.
There is GEforce Now but not all my STeam are available, only few.
Is it a non official Valve project? Like DXVK was?
Because Valve needs a fully cloud solution.
GOG launched in cloud gaming too with Amazon...

I had one issue on one of my computer where Manjaro is installed:
upgrade did not start, I had an error message about gpart.
I uninstalled gpart then everything ok

It's a little issue, nothing compared to an Ubuntu upgrade version where upgrade halted before the end and you can no more start the computer.

Zelda: Majora's Mask gets a PC port with a new open source tool for Nintendo 64 games

New release out today, version v1.0.1, a Linux package is available.
As a long time Linux user, with new project I am used to it to download sources, compiled them, obtain compilation errors, report issues on Github etc...
But this time I just downloaded Zelda 64: Recompiled today's release, extracted it, launched it and provided it a rom, no tweaks, it was so easy.
The result is very impressive, like the game was developed natively for Linux.
My PS3 dualshock controller was recognized out the box and vibrated when I launched game.
Rendering: I didn't know N64 games could be so beautiful, it will be hard to come back to N64 emulation after that.
For the moment this project accept only USA rom, I hope I can use a rom with my native language with a future release.
Other feature that will be a must: textures packs support, imagine this project with "Henriko Magnifico" textures packs...That will be the perfect Zelda Ocarina and Majora's Mask gaming experience. But will Nintendo let do that without intervention?

If this work could help N64 emulator developers progress. Because today, N64 emulation is less accomplished than other console emulators.

Quoting: MohandevirJust got the upgrade, on my PC... After the update, I was left with an empty desktop. All the apps had been removed. I had to reinstall the desktop with "pacman -Qqn | pacman -S -" to get them back.

Hu... rray!

Just updated Manjaro Gnome and...everything work, no issue for the moment. A far better experience than upgrading Ubuntu to a new version...when you have to finish manually in command line with apt-get install -f and apt-get clean...

Spoiler, click me

That's exactly what I lived with Debian and Debian-like distributions, until I migrated to Arch/Manjaro.
