I have the exact same little box for my HTPC in my living room.

It’s possible something went wrong during your install or configuration. I’m running a different distro, but I had to do very little tweaking or configuring of drivers, since the hardware is pretty standard.

Do you have any display output at all? Dropping into a tty or accessing your machine over ssh after boot at least gives you a starting point to debug.

Some tools that you can use to gather more info:

• inxi: prints out helpful summaries of system info for debugging. inxi --graphics should give you some info to work with. My output tells me that I’m using the i915 kernel driver for display output.
• modinfo: prints out kernel module info. The output is lengthy, so piping to a pager is helpful: modinfo i915 | less
• system logs: see if there are any useful error messages in your systemd journal with journalctl --this-boot --priority=3, or search for messages related to the i915 kernel module with journalctl --this-boot --grep i915

Cullen Hoback directed another HBO miniseries documentary about QAnon. He’s not a Q weirdo himself.

It is, in fact, a paid theme in Microsoft’s Solitaire collection for mobile.

I’m a baby dev trying to collect some brain wrinkles. Can you expand that last point? What’s the downside of client side decorations? What’s a better alternative?

Maybe. Maybe knot.

^I’m ^^so ^^^sorry

I didn’t realize HTC was back in the phone business.

I thought they sold off their mobile assets to Google in order to chase VR and crypto hype cycles.

It’s unfortunately not possible to swap between list and grid views with the gtk file-chooser. It’s a common complaint, but there doesn’t seem to be any movement to allow greater configuration.

There are some limited configuration options for the file-chooser exposed through dconf. The most accessible way to modify these is with Dconf Editor. You can find file-chooser settings at /org/gtk/settings/file-chooser/ and /org/gtk/gtk4/settings/file-chooser/, but it’s mostly things like whether to show hidden files by default or sort by a certain column by default.

I’m in the same boat as you; I wish the file-chooser had some more config available, but I just kinda live with it. It does seem like you can replace the gtk file-chooser though. the XDG Desktop Portal framework was originally designed to allow Flatpak applications to use native environment tools like file choosers, but it seems like you can use it to force a different file-chooser.
