If you have played a game I would suggest adding your experience somewhere. Make sure to include issues, performance and system specs.
This week in KDE apps: we added the final touches to our applications for the KDE Gear ⚙️ 24.12.0, released KPhotoAlbum and KGeoTag, now based on Qt6; improved Itinerary's ticket extractor; and continued our work on Karp, KDE's new PDF editor.
Remember: you too can contribute to keeping KDE's projects going by adopting an app at our fundraiser:
I benchmarked Cyberpunk 2077 on Linux using the in game tool:
2560P/Highest/no Ray Tracing/DOF, Motion Blur and Film Grain Off/AMD Fidelity 3.0 set to Quality
Min | AVG | Max
70.74 | 101.28 | 130.24
Intel i5-12600K | 32GB RAM | Gigabyte RX 7800 XT 16GB | Linux Mint 22 | Mate 1.26.1 | Kernel 6.8.0-49-generic | Mesa 24.0.9-0ubuntu0.2 | Wine 10.0-rc1
Actually got about 20ish FPS higher across the board than on Artix which was weird.

Heya folks! It's Friday, and that means it's time for the weekly Solus roundup! This week, @gnome 47.2 has landed, as well as @kde Plasma 6.2.4 and Qt 6.8.1! Read all about it on our forums: https://discuss.getsol.us/d/11189-solus-updates-for-week-49-2024

After next week's sync, Solus will no longer run on kernels older than 5.15. This is because, with the release of kernel 6.12, we are bumping the `glibc` syscall baseline to 5.15, which will disable all code paths for older kernels. This only affects people who are compiling their own kernel, running Solus in a container, or otherwise using an old kernel, including `chroot`ing into Solus using a very old ISO. Our previous baseline was 5.10. This baseline is updated regularly, about once a year.
I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
