thank you for the extra info. I'm interested in how you make the script for turning off monitor remotely, it def sound super useful.

this sound like a viable option for me. thank you for your suggestion

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

i see, that def a good consideration. other people suggest a lot of great options, ill try those first and if in the end it doesnt work, this will be my final solution.

thank you for your explanation, It seems i made a lot of people confused. After a bit of explanation it seems like 'multiseat' is the term for what i had in mind.

i'll check those distros and hopefully i will be able to use linux full time

thank you for your suggestion, i'll research it further and i wish you luck in your project. i dont mind a bit of a challenge but i'll need to assess if its worthwhile

thank you for your time explaining what my hurdles will be, Yes I'm not native speaker so i apologize if my question is confusing.

seems like this is the way i have to do, ill research this further and try to go as far as i can and see if i can compromise something if its getting too hard for my skill.

before, i stream my pc at home from my office with steam deck. after a year the inconvenience outweighs the simplicity so i moved my home pc to my office so now im looking for a new build so might as well try to make something i've been wondering to do

not exactly replace everything but i can use it to game in my living room and work in my work room. after a discussion at buildapc, the term thats best to describe it is 'multiseat'

i see, thank you for the info. ill look into it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

no problem. i apologize for not mentioning it

 

i posted this on linux instance, ill copy it to here too.

Hi, so I want to building a pc for a home server (?) or NAS. I dont really know whats the most appropriate term but what I intend to build is a one pc for my household. currently my requirement is one work 'pc' capable of heavy 3d modeling one light work pc. two 4k gaming tvs. (they most likely wont be used at the same time)

my knowledge of technical stuff is bretty basic so please be patient with me.

before, i used my steam deck to stream my work pc using parsec but i thought i just want to jump all in on linux and using vm to use more niche 3d softwares.

my budget is flexible as long as i dont need to use enterprise hardware. also i heard nvidia is not good for linux so i'd like to confirm if that is still the case as im thinking of using 5090 if not, i hope amd releases an equivalent capable card or if any according my quick research suggest.

as for linux, the only distro (?) i ever used is the steam deck one and i love it. im not a programmer or even remotely capable one so i'd like to avoid anything that has to be manually typing commands at terminal but im open to surface level tinkering.

thank you for your time

Hi, just wondering if the title is possible. I'm currently daily driving my steam deck as my work pc in my office. mostly i used it to stream programs off my much beefier main pc at home.

Recently I've been thinking of adding a drawing tablet to the setup (wacom movink) but it uses usb c to c and the dock only has one for power. so if i used an adapter (usb c to usb a), would it work?

cheers.

 

one thing i miss the most about my switch is the joy con. i love being able to game while my arm is pretty much free.

i was thrilled when valve announced joy con support but when i tried it on my pc and my deck the connection is spotty and the input lag is really bad, i tried with multiple joy cons but it still the same, do you guys have the same experience or is there something i have to do with it first.

cheers.
