Bottles app developers recently published Atoms [External Link]. It is a gui to create containers and chroot environment. I think distrobox is also supported. It is on flathub [External Link].

There are also Podman Desktop [External Link] and Pods [External Link] if you need finer management.

XWayland 21.1.3 rolls out supporting NVIDIA 495.44 with the GBM API
9 Nov 2021 at 6:36 pm UTC

Quoting: michaldybczakI just updated to Nvidia 495.44 and the Wayland session won't start. Does it mean I must wait for the update of xorg-xwayland 21.1.3 for it to work or something is wrong on my side?
Probaly something on your end. Are you using KDE? I am using 495.44 driver in Fedora 35 (gnome) with wayland without any problem. For full gbm support you need xwayland 21.1.3 and gnome 41.2. Gnome is still using egl-stream for nvidia. 41.2 release most probably use gbm backend. Xwayland 21.1.3 is already in testing repo dor Fedora 35 and 34. Hopefully, it will come within 2 weeks

Quoting: fagnerlnThere's a big hype on this distro, I will try it later. The problem is Gnome, I'm on Ubuntu right now and I'm fighting with Gnome, as it makes everything harder. Want to change the audio output fast? Nope! Install a extension. Want to create a text file on Nautilus? Nope!

I love the look of it btw
Create blank text called New text file.txt and copy that to Templates folder in your home. You can also add odt/docx etc file there.

Tomb Raider (2013) free from Steam. I am loving it very much. I already have next 2 sequels and played Rise of TR a pretty good portion(Soviet installation, where Jack has gone to his village). First part is smaller and condensed. I am on the last part of the first game. Only samurai soldiers, other soldiers, Big Ony and main boss are left.

Another one is AC:Odyssey. I am in Athenian base to destroy their war supply and captain. It's a huge game. I am taking time.

I can search audio and video meta-data, calendar events, word in a document(even google docs), contacts right from the activities overview. I don't need to remember the application name, document name or audi/video file name. You can also add folders from outside of home folder.
