ChromeOS

Does Crostini hard-allocate RAM in the way VirtualBox or other VMs do? Is there any way to increase it?

When I'm using Crostini, I'm usually using only Crostini, so would prefer to allocate most of the RAM to it.

Geekbench single/multi:

SD X: 2100/10500

SD X Elite: 2700/14000

AS M3 Pro: 3100/15000

MTK Kompanio Ultra: 2600/8000

Since the 7C works flawlessly also with smooth stylus input, some more boards could be used to surf the ARM wave.

I Just entered the arm ChromeOS world with a 7c 1 gen and was wondering if there is any chance to get genshin work. ATM it stops after a few secs of the intro.

I'm wondering what repo the Debian instance gets its packages from, more specifically the adb and fastboot binaries.

Thanks in advance to whoever finds this out, you will literally be saving me so much headache!

There might be many cheap Chromebooks for sale in Denmark this summer (article in Danish)

I spent some time installing and configuring Linux (Arch) on pixel slate. Here is what I find.

The good parts.

• Basically everything works out of the box (with one small fixable caveat below). I installed Arch Linux with KDE Plasma.
• Firefox is simply great.
• Battery life is very good. I get very similar battery life compared to Chrome OS. Battery drain in suspend is minimal.
• Screen rotation works pretty well once iio-sensor-proxy is installed.
• virtual keyboard (maliit-keyboard) works well too.

The bad parts

• Stylus works, but lags a lot. Might have something to do with Wayland?
• Gesture navigation can definitely use some improvement.
• The flatpak Plex client appears to lack hardware acceleration and lags a lot with 4k content. I have to rely on the web client at the moment.

Some notes

• My motivation to do this was to completely remove chrome from my devices. I chose Full UEFI boot. There is a very well written tutorial for doing so. For me the only hurdle was to obtain a SuzyQable CCD Debugging cable.
• The default Arch Linux install works well. The only issue was the hid_google_hammer kernel module. It is causing very long delays during the startup and you basically won't be able to properly shutdown or reboot. Fortunately the fix is easy enough. I just had to blacklist the two modules (hid_google_hammer and hid_vivaldi_common). From what I tested, this issue affects many distros, including at least Arch and Void.

Like the title says. Just upgraded my Android phone, got it set up and working like a charm. Went to connect it to my chromebook in the chromebook settings and it won't let me get past the "sign in with your google account" screen.

Keeps saying "wrong password". But not only have I been already using that account/password not only on the new Android Phone, but on my Chromebook for the last year...but I also LITERALLY copied and pasted it from my bitwarden account after it failed to take the typed password three times.

I'm stumped. Help please. Thanks in advance.

When you import a private key for an SSH connection in the Terminal app, where are those stored? Can I access them?
