Docking station that supports 3 monitors for MacOS & Linux in c/techsupport@lemmy.world
[–] ApplyingAutomation@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

I tried installing the Fedora display link driver from here: https://github.com/displaylink-rpm/displaylink-rpm

It didn't work out of the box, I need to fiddle with it some more.

But, does M3 macbooks support egpus? My understanding was they don't.

My goal is to drive all of this off single cord.

Docking station that supports 3 monitors for MacOS & Linux (lemmy.world)
 

Hey, I have two laptops & I'd like to get a triple monitor docking station that supports both of them, they are:

MacBook Pro - M3 Max - MacOS Lenovo X1 Carbon - 6th generation - Fedora 41

I got this dock: https://a.co/d/1vaXV11 and have been able to get it working with the MacBook, but my attempts to get it working with the X1 Carbon have been unsuccessful.

I can still return the dock if there are other suggestions? Thanks in advance

WLED power limit for FCOB strip in c/homeassistant@lemmy.world

Thank you!

I guess the second part of my question is I want to confirm that WLED says "per LED" they really mean "per IC".

WLED power limit for FCOB strip (lemmy.world)
 

Pardon a WLED question in the Home Assistant community, but I was unable to find a WLED community in the fediverse.

Regardless, I have this 720 LED/meter FCOB strip, which is 24v strip & I'm trying to figure out what to configure the "LED voltage (Max. current for a single LED):"

Since it's a 20IC per meter & they claim 21watts per meter that comes out to ~1w per IC. But I'm unsure how that converts to mA like WLED is asking for.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated 🤠

Link to the post I'm not sure what causes this, when downloading the image, there isn't these empty spaces.

You could create the firstname.lastname.secret@company.com alias to your current email, then create a filter to auto-archive anything from outside your domain directed at your email directly.

What are your thoughts on something like this? https://www.ebay.com/itm/335508029876

How to handle a miss-communicated repair? (lemmy.world)
 

I broke the screen on my pixel 7 pro, I took it to get repaired by a local shop & we discussed that I wanted an original part. They interpreted this as I want a “new” part, but not an original one. They've now done the repair with an aftermarket screen, which is much lower quality than an OEM part.

I've asked them to make this right, but they say they've done what they said they'd do. I feel ripped off, but I also don't want to be unfair to the work that they've done, installing the part and all. I'm just looking for guidance on how to handle this situation? Has anyone been here before?

Screen randomly goes black & then requires login on Fedora. (lemmy.world)
 

I have not been able to notice a pattern as to why/when this happens. But after the black screen for a few seconds, it comes back to the login page.

I've updated the bios to the newest version with no success, would love some assistance at least debugging this. This is my relevant system information:

Is it possible to have dynamic light/dark which follow system settings for themes created using color.firefox.com? (lemmy.world)
 

I've created 2 themes on https://color.firefox.com/ ~ one light themed & one dark themed. Would it be possible to configure these as a dynamic theme which follows my system's light/dark settings? (I'm using Fedora if that's relevant)
