CLIphobia is a new one to me.
I cooked food for 20 years. Now I build computers and dive down Linux 🐇 🕳️ on a personal learning journey.
Mostly, I cat sit and watch anime when not gaming or editing files.
Fibromyalgia sucks! Existence is pain and resistance is futile. Thanks for noticing me.

CLIphobia is a new one to me.
I have a Brother HL-L2395DW
Tho when I went to add it as a printer, my system automatically selected the “reccomended” drivers on Plasma 6+.
I remember on older Plasma, that you still had to select Brother
first, then search for model type.
At that next screen or if I edit my current printer, I searched for L23
:
By generic printer driver, I meant the cups/driverless one on this selection screen. Opposed to any official Brother
or GutenPrint
drivers/ppd files.
I did try searching for your exact model, but nothing showed for me…tho I can’t tell if that’s because mine is already wireless/UPnP and grabbing only it’s settings.
I’m using the Brother HL-L2395DW series, driverless, 2.0.0
I Just have to also make sure duplex printing is set to on, both system and firefox/application whatever settings.
On Firefox I use Flip on long edge
.
Have you tried using the driverless cups driver tho?
On Bazzite I believe people use Firefox installed as Android app, so they can simply switch to it for game guides etc, while playing a game, in GameScope/Big Screen/GameMode™
I’m too lazy to test, because I just run it as my daily driver on my Desktop.
I 🎮 on Bazzite BTW.
You can type switcheroo list
in terminal and find out.
Tho this would mean it wasn’t related to iGPU switching issue.
Here’s to Plasma 6.1 hopefully fixing more display issues for people with esync and 3x buffering for Wayland.
For Flatpak Steam/Lutris one can use Flatseal to easily add drive locations/access as much or little as you want to tweak.
Issues because of having an iGPU?
Switcheroo is patched on Bazzite.
switcherooctl
to make sure Flatpaks etc are using the correct dedicated GPU and not trying to use iGPUs.
Tho an update was on the 18th that was supposed to fix some issues people were having.
(Weeks ago steam was trying to use my iGPU again on my AMD system, and that’s when I learned about switcheroo list
etc etc. sometimes Flatpak Games like B.A.R.
were trying to do the same thing. Bleh!)
You can also force .desktop
or shortcuts on KDE Plasma to run using dedicated GPUs by Right Clicking >

Or… Was this an Adaptive Sync issue…in that case try turning that off. sometimes I skim over things when replying.
Anyway, Discourse, Discord and GitHub are all good ways to get in touch/help with the community vs Lemmy/Mastodon. Sometimes I feel like an Ambassador.
Been on Bazzite myself since the F38 Beta.
I haven’t had to so much as perform a rollback even once on my AMDxAMD desktop.
In fact the upgrade from versions isn’t even a worry anymore.
I played some games, turned off my computer at the Fedora 40 launch and magically it upgraded to Bazzite 40 the next time I booted up, with 0 effort on my part.
E-waste
So I have a glass etched OG 512 LCD and a limited ED oled because I’m on life crisis #4 abouts.
The oled definitely feels lighter after handling both. And better WiFi is also nice. 🔋 Life is also +.
Twice a week maybe three times in bed, when my hands hurt too much to play on normal controllers.
Or my body hurts too much to play at my desk/chair.
I hate my weak AF 38 year old Fibromyalgia body. 🥹
Best thing is, I just stream my PC > Deck so technically utilizing my beefy 7950x 7900xtx system.
WoW Classic Cataclysm is a dumpster fire…but at least I can enjoy it with ConsolePort. 🎮
Those poor Nvidia users lol.
edit: My brain had read this as “What reason would I use Bazzite vs Steam OS?” Others exist like Chimera. But I’m only familiar with Bazzite.

Maybe you really really want Gnome on your Deck?

Hear me out … Embrace the Chromebook easy life.
For your consideration:
Work/Development based?
Gamer?
Otherwise on Fedora, brush up on RPM Fusion.
Because patent encumbrance is fun.
