- edit /etc/default/grub, set grub_timeout to 0. Run update-grub so the change sticks.
This removes the ticking 5s timer at bootup. I never use the other boot entries anyway, and if the system fails to boot, I troubleshoot from a live system.
- Create ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini and add:
[Settings]
gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false
This makes it so when you click on a scrollbar below or above the slider, it moves down or up by one page, not to where you clicked.
- edit /etc/environment (it’s empty), add a line with: MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1
This forces firefox to use Wayland, which makes scrolling much smoother and text look better.
There’s a bunch more, but these are the first I always do so I don’t get mad. What are yours?
I for one had to boot another grub option just the other day. Some kernel headers missmatch issue. Still not sure if it was my fault or not. I guess I could just blame Nvidia, which is always a smart thing to do.
- Add myself to the sudoers group:
sudo usermod -a -G sudo myusername - Updated my sources list to include
main contrib non-free non-free-firmware - Enable multi-arch (for Steam):
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
I use KDE and something that annoys me is that file explorers launch files on single click, so I always have to change that to double click in System Settings.
- Add myself to the sudoers group:
I’m a newby… does 3. work with Firefox as a flatpak install?
You can use an override for the flatpak:
sudo flatpak override --env MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 org.mozilla.firefoxThanks, man! Not only is scrolling so much smoother, but Youtube also stopped dropping frames like crazy, which it did before and which I just couldn’t find a fix for. It’s smootheness all around :)
Awesome! Make sure you have the ffmpeg-full flatpak runtime installed as well. On my Intel GPU video playback is pretty buggy without it.
IMHO - MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 should go to your ~/.bashrc or similar, but not to global environment file.
