This is pretty cool.
I don’t have an NVIDIA card to enjoy this. But sharing if you have not seen:
Intressting but better not try with my very old 1GB nvidia ![]()
Pretty cool indeed, but I’m afraid I need my precious little VRAM too ![]()
After the NVIDIA keynote at Computex, that will probably have been my last NVIDIA card
What did they say/reveal that lead you to that decision ?
Wow, that’s interesting, if I had an Nvidia PC I would try it, right now I only have a GMA 3150, play minecraft game is really laggy![]()
ouch, that’s painful if you want to play games. Also the fact that your CPU is an Intel Atom doesn’t make it any better. Your setup must be, like 18 years old now, right ?
Yes, I also have to be patient in compiling applications in Rust, the games I can play are simple games.
Oh Cool! Wolfenstein3D ! ![]()
I still have a similar netbook around ASUS Eee PC 1025/R052 although is has only half the RAMsize that you have (1GB).
As a challenge I installed Ubuntu-MATE 24.04 and stripped it a bit. Yes it runs … not very fast, and it definitely uses swap. Opening of applications costs 1 to 2 seconds but after that the apps run acceptable. For a 1GB netbook, Ubuntu-MATE is realistically a little bit to heavy but it would run fine on your netbook, and with Ubuntu-MATE you can disable the compositor via MATE-Tweak so you can switch off hardware acceleration if your hardware does not support it.
For my netbook, with its 1GB RAM (700-750 MB available) the best choice was to go with Bodhi Linux (Moksha desktop) which is Ubuntu based. It is very fast, uses about 250MB RAM and never hits the swap.
Have you ever thought about getting a new or refurbished laptop ?
It’s Chocolate Doom, a port of the 1993 classic retro game Doom.
Oops, yes ofcourse
, my brain was temporary on hold, sorry ![]()
I have doomlegacy_1.47.2 for linux.
b.t.w. that 3d pinball for windows. Is that running under WINE or is it a community port ?
Wait a moment, you are on Wayland ? On that Atom ? With a GMA 3150 ??
Is that workable ? ![]()
Very work, absolutely
Community Port
How did you get GNOME 5.0 to only use 532MB while it normally uses more than 1500MB ? Heavy use of swapspace ?
Not really, I tweak services, zram swap, swapfile, etc.
This is @Arch, no snap, no additional services, no bloatware, light, fastest, and easy to tweak![]()
(Although the appearance is very Ubuntu)
