Debian e GNOME me surpeenderam

9 Upvotes

Achei o GNOME no Debian bem mais fluido que em outras distribuições. Também sentiram isso? Eu realmente estou surpreso com a fluidez e velocidade do Debian e GNOME. Programas abrem rápido, as animações não travam e o desempenho é muito bom. Achei funciona melhor que o Fedora e Ubuntu

General Debian Question Some settings for GUI/headless computers

9 Upvotes

I need to run a Debian computer with GUI and a fullscreen application, but without connected mouse and keyboard. The issue is that when the computer starts, the lower icon bar is visible and the desktop window is smaller - when I remotely run the fullscreen app, it still fits in that smaller window, with the icon bar visible. How can I start with the desktop maximized?

General Debian Question Struggling to finish my clean installation of greetd and sway

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

So I'm trying to install and setup sway from a clean, net install. I know I could just install the default DE and install sway alongside it, but I'm in my no-bloat phase.

Anyway, I'm starting from the Debian 13.6 iso, and choosing no DE when installing (so no GNOME nor "Debian Desktop Environment" when I got the choice).

When launching it all, I install sway, swayidle, swaylock and sway-backgrounds on the sway side. As for the DM, I went for greetd and wlgreet (it seems to me that this is where things don't work) or gtkgreet (I tried too but it doesn't work either). I also install a few other things, but those are uninportant here (unless stuff like git, brightnessctl, build-essential or make are known to conflict with something but then I'll be damned)

After that, I'm following the archwiki guide for greetd to set things up. So that include the systemctl enable greetd.service, configuring /etc/greetd/config.toml, sway-config, wlgreet.toml, and even the start-sway script for XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP. I've checked many times (due to me reinstalling Debian many times haha) and I haven't made mistakes reproducing the instructions.

Still, when I reboot, I get a XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP error, and some kind of failed to flush wayland socket: something something broken pipe piperoken pipeol error (cannot remember the exact wording for the second part of the message but you have the pipe-based keywords) which I don't understand.

So, I'm a bit lost here. I suppose there is a problem with greetd, but since the command in config.toml starts with sway, maybe it's a sway problem ? What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

sound noise and echo

2 Upvotes

Hello, excuse me, how to fix the internal microphone feeling like it's bouncing or repeating the words I say when I'm having a meeting with Google Meet? Well, I've read and searched the internet and it's recommended to use EasyEffect and use effect Deep Noise Remover, but it has a latency or delay of about 1 second or more . Is there a solution and suggestion? I use Pipewire.
