Control your cooling on Linux with CoolerControl - v1.4 brings AMD GPU RDNA 3 fan support

Quoting: ExplosiveDiarrhea
Quoting: dziadulewiczI think the developer should be contacted.
Sure, contact the guy who made his software freely available and tell him that his software needs to be just like you want it, add that you can't even be bothered to read any instructions, let alone contribute to its development in any way. I'm sure it's going to be glorious!
And people here are even defending this kind of attitude... wtf is wrong with you guys?
i think he be glad to kno that ppl cant install his sofware so he can make more accessible why you too so angry all da time for lil things

Quoting: dziadulewiczThis was enough "dependency hell" for me (whatever you mean it specifically means, don't care, not the point either). Maybe you enjoy tweaking and tinkering, fixing and reading instructions to get something installed. That's ok and cool. But do not expect that from others automatically, please?
I don't think Linux is for you if you are that unwilling to deal with a simple readme.

Linux has gotten way easier, but I certainly hope it never reaches the levels of Windows where everything is made to appear so simple users aren't expected to think anymore.
Hell, not even Windows is actually so simple in all cases.

Quoting: dziadulewiczAppImage? Will not touch those, sorry. And like i said already: no big deal as i don't need Cooler Control. And thanks for your concern.
So someone suggested you the one-click solution you needed, but it's still "not your thing".
That's one way to handle communication, I guess :grin::grin:
this toxic. i tried that app image too few times and they never opened when clicking to run , not once so i left them behind

Polychromatic app for managing Razer devices v0.8.3 out now

Quoting: Linuxerumm nope those never worked for me thats why i use ubuntu. for example fedora didnt even play youtube videos or twitch. can there be a snap package thats all
You can't be serious... It just seems you're a Windowser on Linux, not a Linuxer. :unsure:
I could be wrong, but I think you asked that sort of questions in the past "how to install this or that", did you learn something?
i have said nothing bad to you !

Quoting: Liam DaweI guess you don't use GitHub much. Go to the releases page [External Link], select a release, scroll down to the downloads under Assets. Would be a lot easier if it was just on Flathub.
thats true ive never used it.

Quoting: LinuxerHow do i instal this on Ubuntu ? i can't much understand whats here https://github.com/ihhub/fheroes2/blob/master/docs/INSTALL.md [External Link] and the flatpak doesn't work :dizzy:
Flatpak support isn't installed in Ubuntu by default. Just install that, and THEN install a flatpak and it should work.

There is no Snap package, at least not yet: https://snapcraft.io/search?q=fheroes2 [External Link]

Edit: i made a request to Snapcrafters: https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/fheroes2-open-heroes-of-might-and-magic-ii-snap-package/37812/2 [External Link]
thanks !!

Yeah, that kinda sucks with Ubuntu forcing Snaps.

:happy:
Do you know why you want Snap packages though?
yes i do
