It is wild to me that Resolve could solve all its issues but just being package using flatpack or snap. What is worse is that I am pretty sure it has to be more difficult to maintain as it is right now.
The Resolve setup issues are crazy to me! I've installed Resolve on A LOT of Linux machines without issues. DaVinci Resolve Studio normal .run file+Kubuntu/Zorin/Pop!_OS/Ubuntu+Standard NVIDIA drivers= No issues at all in my experience(except on hybrid graphics laptops).
Resolve on NVIDIA is a much more pleasant experience, as long as the packages don't break. Generally speaking, I think I would do the native install method on NVIDIA, and the Distrobox way for AMD
There are a range of issues when it comes to installing Resolve on different Linux distro's and DE's, some distro's and DE's play nice with Resolve while others just plain don't. And this you only find out when trying to install it on said distro, especially when you are someone coming from windows, you do not expect to have to hunt down packages and libraries to make a program that is supposed to be supported work. If you have done this a few times it becomes easier for you to do, but, you should not have to do this, BMD should make their software work with current distro's and DE's, this would refine the experience, even on Resolve19 with Nobara40 both KDE and GNOME I had to skip the package check because of a naming convention issues with libraries..... This should not be down to the user to have to sort out... I run an Nvidia card and the card was not the issue, the software and it's dependancies are though....This is 100% a BMD thing...
I hate to say it some people will struggle with linux because there just not computer savy enough simple you need to be super hands on with it in order to use it as it doesn't hold your hand like windows os does i recently became a linux user it's interesting to say the least but got mine working fine
For some of the more popular questions from the video maybe turn them into shorts? You can title them appropriately. That way they're more easily searchable! Great video ❤
Recently started to follow your channel and would love to see a video where you explain if (and perhaps how?) it's possible to gain full functionality of a Logitech MX Master 3S mouse in Linux. Im probably what you would call a person who is "farily" familiar with linux, and have been daily drivin it for numerous of years (both on raspberry pi's and main PC). This question is however something I really can't seem to find a good answer to :) Keep up the good work!
Also you should be able to port the resolve fixes from nobara into a fedora install. Not sure if this would be easier than distrobox but certainly another option.
The issue is less that you can't get it to run, but for it to stay running after some updates. Before I used Distrobox, I always installed natively, but some crucial packages got updated frequently, which meant fixing it every other week. It might have been an exception, but not something I wanted to continue with
Hey! In the name of all fellow guardians trying to break ties with windows, thank you for answering my question! Too bad bungie doesn't want to support the game in linux. Have a great day!
I'm probably not the audience for this specific video but it's still very well made. What I was about to say however is that Distrobox needs to run on more point release distros like Debian Stable or Mint. Sure it'd be yet another option next to its own packages, Flatpak, AppImages and even Snaps, given distrobox also works for terminal based software and make use of say the AUR and OBS inside their respective containers, it'd be a real handy tool to have on hands while keeping the base system untouched. Then again, this would also lead into another rabbit hole :,D
Michael, What about adding internal drives on a desktop? There are multiple ways of doing this. When coming over from windows this can become a task as, the drives only show up in "other locations" in Fedora files (GNOME) and are not writable, not to mention, when loading the OS it is better to not have those drives installed as the install may (this has happened to me) span those hard drives and if something fails when this is the case you loos all your data because of the spanning, Fedora KDE has the drives already picked up and working but Fedora GNOME does not and this could catch out a lot of people... Thank you for your video..
From a security perspective it makes sense to not automount drives that could potentially be new. Gnome allows this with Gnome Disks, where you have a toggle for automount. It should be easy enough since there are a couple of ways how people end up there
I disagree with the CrossOver/WIne section. If I am not mistaken the code weavers devs are contributing code to wine as they go, so wine is gaining from this. It is not that they take the code and build upon that just for themselves. Also CrossOver has a polish that Wine does not, and this is the product this team is making. It would be nice if we all could work and give everything for free, but somehow bills need to be paid.
info for davinci resolve users with amd hardware who are on arch & don't already know this: you can install davinci-resolve via an AUR helper, then install intel compute runtime & opencl-amd package and it should work with no issues. as far as I know, this is the only way to make it work on amd
If it doesn't work, sometimes there is a better way, like for xubuntu for me is always synaptic and at times snap otherwise PPAs. does take searching and testing though.
If you appreciate stability, why didn't you go with debian? Just curious. Does debian have too old packages for you? I would like to know! Great video!
It's the Desktop Environments at the moment. I don't mind older ones, but Plasma 6, and Gnome 46 have so many quality of life improvements which I like
@@MichaelNROH Yup, same here. I think KDE on Debian is 5.27 at the moment. I just gave it a spin in a virtual machine and while it's not bad, it's not the new 6.1 version.
@@MichaelNROH Absolutely same. GNOME 47 will be even cooler and next Debian probably sticking to 46 means I'll probably wait for the version after it, unless I don't want to miss out on an even newer version
@@TommyViper Yeah debian stable is on 5.27.4 which isn't even the latest bugfix release of KDE 5. Testing/Unstable is on 5.7.11 which is the last bugfix release of KDE 5, they don't seem to have added kde 6 yet - debian stable is not all that ideal for KDE since they don't bring in the bug fix updates after release so you have to live with whatever bugs are there.
I love your answer for why you don’t use nobara. Even tho i have been a nobara user, its been broken a lot lately and all everyone on the subreddit says is your updating it wrong. Your not supposed to update using discover but a fresh install has discover pined to the panel and the discover update notification always shows in the tray. If its set up like that its pure idiocy not to expect people to update that way… imo.
So what distro are you using homeslice? I'm assuming Fedora :) When it comes to the Resolve issue GPU passthrough kvm and roll windows IMO is the answer :)
Thank you for an informative and fun video. I have a question for a future Q&A. I'm using an MSI GF65 with an RTX 3060 and tried Nobara on it. While gaming, the system's temperature becomes quite high, so I uninstalled it in fear of destroying the laptop. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to locate any fan control options within Nobara, similar to those found in Dragon Center. Could you provide any insights on managing fan speeds in Nobara or Fedora, for improved thermal performance?
Thanks a bunch for answering our queries. Did not expect to be that simple. I thought I have to use wine or bottle of some sort to run CS2. Sorry man, complete beginner here. But how do you run Diablo 2 Resurrection on Linux? I really want to play those 2 games on Linux.
Im curious, do you plan to do an update on linux audio? My biggest hurdle to going full linux is setting up an audio interface and being able to use my bluetooth headset instead of wired

i installed ubuntu on my new pc with asus motherboard. and when i put it on rest mode, and when i turn it back on nothing apears on monitor, like black screen, even on fedora. i dont have nvidia gpu. i have intel udh graphics 730
There is no direct answer for this since it entirely depends on the Desktop Environment version it comes with and if it uses the Wayland or X11 protocol. Besides Gnome, KDE Plasma and some Tiling Window Managers, most Desktop Environments still use X11, which has it auto-enabled by default I think. On NVIDIA you can toggle it in their control panel. Edit: Oh, and Adaptive Sync, Freesync Premium, etc. are all the same things just with different monitor specs. It isn't influenced by the Desktop Environment
@@MichaelNROH I'm using Debian 12 with Wayland but the monitor says that it's not active. If you have any reference on how to do it at the OS level please let me know.
I think it might have been new with 12, which could explain some issues. I had issues with updating packages when I used it, and trying to fix it borked my setup enough to justify just going back to a fresh Fedora install.
What do you mean "install nvidia drivers trough software manager"?? I always followed the if-not-true-then-false guide on it. i had 0 clue it was possible like that
That's not true, as you are just adding the repo for the installer file. It rarely gets updated and once Steam is installed, it updates independently anyway
Not necessarily. I also had a drive "break" since Windows couldn't reformat it, but re-initializing and repartitioning it fixed the issue. Sometimes some flags don't get removed properly, making it software read-only
AMD doesn't have hardware acceleration for both decoding and encoding on Linux... Basically your relying on CPU power to render your videos. Wished AMD had supported both GPU decoding and encoding for DaVinci Resolve Linux users
It's actually Blackmagic who don't include Acceleration, as openCL and the encoders work just fine. They could have even used AMD's proprietary drivers but they didn't

What's behind Android's popularity? User friendliness. What's behind PC Linux's unpopularity (which no amount of distro development gives a rat's ass about)? The terminal, but for many the constant password typing is enough. People are sick and tired of Windows and Microsoft, there's really a whole giant market awaiting a user-friendly Linux OS, just like Android proved!
The reason why Android became so popular only resides on the fact that they had no competition. Apple's iOS only rolled out on their own devices, so anyone who wanted to make their own needed something else
@@MichaelNROH If Google wouldn't resolve the issue of the Linux user-UNfriendliness ,trust me, not even separate Naruto themed keyboards via micro-USB cable would stop Microsoft from taking over this section of the market as well! Maybe Linux developers find Naruto and the rest cool, but normal people have different priorities in life. If we get a polished up enough Android x86 with Wine, Bottles, etc out of the box, for everybody's beloved exe programs (maybe even installation option of keeping the Windows Program Files and settings in tact, as a bonus), even Microsoft is gonna have serious problems, not just the standard Linux PC distros (and it's already like Protestantism with that)! I'm not the Linux people's enemy here, I want what's the best. May distro developers at least make GUI troubleshooters to replace the terminal, if that's possible.
@@MichaelNROH I know all of them are geniuses, and all that stuff, but they surely must not get the simple fact that the vast majority of people want to use their computers when they want to type, not type when they want to use their computers. Even if the average Joe does know the Linux terminal well, chances are more than likely he'll have to beg for whole weeks the "nice" Linux community for any decent attention anyway. When you come beat and tired after hours of traffic from your 9 to 5, really, even MacOS is a better investment.
@@motoryzen You won't get passed a faulty app update without the terminal on Zorin, let alone Mint. In practice, it's totally different, and a "Goodbye, Linux!" for every normal PC user, even IT expert, who simply doesn't wanna bother with learning the Linux terminal, happy with his experience on Windows or Mac.
Yeah no, usb stick or ssd going write protected in most most and again most cases means the flash controler on it died making it literaly trash. A dangerous trash because u cant delete any files on it yet sometimes u can still copy them back meaning someone who finds it in the trash can use the data. Its recomended to physicaly break the stick then. Most common causes are idiots on the internet promoting flashing software such as balena etcher. Normal bootable pendrive creators like the microsoft tool, ventoy and rufus create 2 standard as f* partitions, one for grub one for data, while flashing tools like rufus delete all data and partition tables on the drive and create a read only image partition that is exact copy of everything in iso file which operating system can no longer read as a flash drive. That also means ANY AND ALL stupidity in the iso file like dvd video or old af music-cd encoding will be enforced upon partition which might degrade the life of a controler which now has no idea what the hell is it forced to read but does it anyway. This is also why when u connect such flashed pendrive to a windows machine it has no clue what the data is displaying a prompt to re-format the disk. It is not Windows being ahole but a flash drive being forced into cdfs against its will.
Not always, when you come from windows with drives that have windows FS on them they are read only. I know this because this happened to me, they show up in "other locations" in Fedora (GNOME) files, you can read from them but not write to them until you reformat them with a Linux FS, I had two SSD's that were like this because of NTFS.....
Things like these are why Linux will never be considered a desktop operating system for the general public. They need competent people with UX expertise. Not some command basement dwellers dictating how things are fine as they are now.
no actually we need laptop abd prebuild Desktop with Linux preinstalled and also we need the support of the manufacturer of the compoenent and software that people use cause what make the jump to Linux for me impossible/verh difficultt/not wirth it is software+ hardware issue ... :(
Two weeks ago, I installed Linux Mint and out of the gate everything basically worked. My primary monitor is seen as my primary... but it's identified as monitor 2. Fine, whatever. Installed Steam and games worked just fine with whatever Nvidia drivers Mint provided. Next, time to get my sound card working correctly. Line out works but not the headphone jack. Followed a guide on resolving this... and I haven't touched Mint since then. Linux crashed and the drive it's installed on doesn't even show up in the fucking BIOS. _sigh_ This isn't the first time Linux has let me down. I started experimenting back in 2012. We can bitch about Windows all we want but Windows is like a shitty 1998 Toyota Corolla: it refuses to die. You despise the damn thing but it still gets you to work on time. I should just resurrect the HP office PC I've got collecting dust and make that my Linux bitch. A proprietary power supply and a 3rd gen i5! I really do want to switch to Linux full-time but it still fails to JUST FUCKING WORK. "The Year of Linux" will continue to be a fairy tale.
And that is precisely what can happen when you choose to Dill boot Linux on the same physical drive that you already have windows installed on( facepalms) You also did not state how your troubleshot Linux crashing or even what that means did the desktop crash did the whole meal deal just lock up as in your whole computer lock up and the mouse cursor wouldn't even move ? there are so many questions here on accounted for If you're going to dual boot make sure you disable fast startup AKA quick startup both within your graphical Windows desktop first and your UEFI bios AKA quote set up quote as well as disable secure boot in your UEFI bios before you do anything Then you can physically disconnect the windows drive and connect only the Linux distros installation thumb drive and the target SSD that you want to install that Linux distro into and boot off that thumb drive install the Linux distro power cycle and remove the thumb drive as instructed if the installation instructions so at some point and want your booted up until the Linux distribution desktop, properly power down that computer one more time then you can reconnect your windows drive and you have a true safe enough dual booting system that you can quickly and easily choose to boot to the other drive as needed worst case if that's not the case in your particular PC or motherboard is too old and does not contain that hotkey embedded feature, worst case you just have to assess your UEFI bios and change the boot Drive order which is easily done
And last I checked I freaking older model Corolla let alone a Civic doesn't report Telemetry data and without your permission and your data doesn't get sold without you making a profit

Does Fedora still needs to swap mesa drivers to the rpm free world ones?
You don't have to, but if you are on AMD and want the H.264 codec to work outside of firefox, then yes.
Correct me if im wrong but doesnt ubuntus davinci resolve require makeitdeb or something like that (cant remember the exact name of the tool)
It also works with just finding the right dependencies, but the makeitdeb solution could be able to assist with that.
I'm not sure if it still works though
@@MichaelNROH Yeah I havent been on a deb os in a while moved over to fedora ages ago
are the fedora drivers realy faster and better that the arch wifi drivers?
They all have the same drivers. Maybe some slight version differences but they are all the same
@@MichaelNROH ok thanks my dad recently switch to the father of linux
Unix
Why does my USB hard drive no appear on the boot options?
is there something bootable on that USB harddrive?
Some Mainboards also deactivate booting from external media by default. There might be a toggle in the UEFI
What's behind Android's popularity? User friendliness. What's behind PC Linux's unpopularity (which no amount of distro development gives a rat's ass about)? The terminal, but for many the constant password typing is enough. People are sick and tired of Windows and Microsoft, there's really a whole giant market awaiting a user-friendly Linux OS, just like Android proved!
The reason why Android became so popular only resides on the fact that they had no competition. Apple's iOS only rolled out on their own devices, so anyone who wanted to make their own needed something else
@@MichaelNROH If Google wouldn't resolve the issue of the Linux user-UNfriendliness ,trust me, not even separate Naruto themed keyboards via micro-USB cable would stop Microsoft from taking over this section of the market as well! Maybe Linux developers find Naruto and the rest cool, but normal people have different priorities in life. If we get a polished up enough Android x86 with Wine, Bottles, etc out of the box, for everybody's beloved exe programs (maybe even installation option of keeping the Windows Program Files and settings in tact, as a bonus), even Microsoft is gonna have serious problems, not just the standard Linux PC distros (and it's already like Protestantism with that)! I'm not the Linux people's enemy here, I want what's the best. May distro developers at least make GUI troubleshooters to replace the terminal, if that's possible.
@@MichaelNROH I know all of them are geniuses, and all that stuff, but they surely must not get the simple fact that the vast majority of people want to use their computers when they want to type, not type when they want to use their computers. Even if the average Joe does know the Linux terminal well, chances are more than likely he'll have to beg for whole weeks the "nice" Linux community for any decent attention anyway. When you come beat and tired after hours of traffic from your 9 to 5, really, even MacOS is a better investment.
And Linux Mint has been providing that for arguably and easily over 7 years now
@@motoryzen You won't get passed a faulty app update without the terminal on Zorin, let alone Mint. In practice, it's totally different, and a "Goodbye, Linux!" for every normal PC user, even IT expert, who simply doesn't wanna bother with learning the Linux terminal, happy with his experience on Windows or Mac.
Yeah no, usb stick or ssd going write protected in most most and again most cases means the flash controler on it died making it literaly trash. A dangerous trash because u cant delete any files on it yet sometimes u can still copy them back meaning someone who finds it in the trash can use the data.
Its recomended to physicaly break the stick then. Most common causes are idiots on the internet promoting flashing software such as balena etcher. Normal bootable pendrive creators like the microsoft tool, ventoy and rufus create 2 standard as f* partitions, one for grub one for data, while flashing tools like rufus delete all data and partition tables on the drive and create a read only image partition that is exact copy of everything in iso file which operating system can no longer read as a flash drive. That also means ANY AND ALL stupidity in the iso file like dvd video or old af music-cd encoding will be enforced upon partition which might degrade the life of a controler which now has no idea what the hell is it forced to read but does it anyway. This is also why when u connect such flashed pendrive to a windows machine it has no clue what the data is displaying a prompt to re-format the disk. It is not Windows being ahole but a flash drive being forced into cdfs against its will.
Not always, when you come from windows with drives that have windows FS on them they are read only. I know this because this happened to me, they show up in "other locations" in Fedora (GNOME) files, you can read from them but not write to them until you reformat them with a Linux FS, I had two SSD's that were like this because of NTFS.....
Things like these are why Linux will never be considered a desktop operating system for the general public. They need competent people with UX expertise. Not some command basement dwellers dictating how things are fine as they are now.
Never say never
no actually we need laptop abd prebuild Desktop with Linux preinstalled and also we need the support of the manufacturer of the compoenent and software that people use cause what make the jump to Linux for me impossible/verh difficultt/not wirth it is software+ hardware issue ... :(
Two weeks ago, I installed Linux Mint and out of the gate everything basically worked. My primary monitor is seen as my primary... but it's identified as monitor 2. Fine, whatever. Installed Steam and games worked just fine with whatever Nvidia drivers Mint provided. Next, time to get my sound card working correctly. Line out works but not the headphone jack. Followed a guide on resolving this... and I haven't touched Mint since then. Linux crashed and the drive it's installed on doesn't even show up in the fucking BIOS. _sigh_
This isn't the first time Linux has let me down. I started experimenting back in 2012. We can bitch about Windows all we want but Windows is like a shitty 1998 Toyota Corolla: it refuses to die. You despise the damn thing but it still gets you to work on time. I should just resurrect the HP office PC I've got collecting dust and make that my Linux bitch. A proprietary power supply and a 3rd gen i5! I really do want to switch to Linux full-time but it still fails to JUST FUCKING WORK. "The Year of Linux" will continue to be a fairy tale.
And that is precisely what can happen when you choose to Dill boot Linux on the same physical drive that you already have windows installed on( facepalms)
You also did not state how your troubleshot Linux crashing or even what that means did the desktop crash did the whole meal deal just lock up as in your whole computer lock up and the mouse cursor wouldn't even move ?
there are so many questions here on accounted for
If you're going to dual boot make sure you disable fast startup AKA quick startup both within your graphical Windows desktop first and your UEFI bios AKA quote set up quote as well as disable secure boot in your UEFI bios before you do anything
Then you can physically disconnect the windows drive and connect only the Linux distros installation thumb drive and the target SSD that you want to install that Linux distro into and boot off that thumb drive install the Linux distro power cycle and remove the thumb drive as instructed if the installation instructions so at some point and want your booted up until the Linux distribution desktop, properly power down that computer one more time then you can reconnect your windows drive and you have a true safe enough dual booting system that you can quickly and easily choose to boot to the other drive as needed worst case if that's not the case in your particular PC or motherboard is too old and does not contain that hotkey embedded feature, worst case you just have to assess your UEFI bios and change the boot Drive order which is easily done
And last I checked I freaking older model Corolla let alone a Civic doesn't report Telemetry data and without your permission and your data doesn't get sold without you making a profit
Thus..DONT insult Toyota comparing it to Microsoft. That is just plain asinine and incoherent
Why not just use Garuda Linux?
Because Fedora is better.
@@vxer Because garuda is arch and not fedora
it's too flashy :)
