I’m using Steam on Arch Linux (see the Arch Linux: Steam installation). And I have Civilization V game here – my favorite game for last N-years. I have NVIDIA drivers installed and most of the games work fine, even World Of Tanks, but I wasn’t able to play Civilization from the moment I’ve installed Steam… Read More »
As a follow-up to the SSH: RSA keys, and ssh-agent for SSH keys and their passwords management post. The idea now is to make simpler to work with password-protected SSH keys, to avoid the necessity to enter a password each time when you want to load a key to the ssh-agent.

So, this seems to be the last one post in the whole series about passwords and SSH management in Linux. The previous parts were about: Linux: the Nextcloud client, qtkeychain and the “The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files” error – I found that a keyring service is able to store SSH… Read More »

On Arch Linux can be install from AUR: [simterm] $ yaourt -S kazam [/simterm] Run it: [simterm] $ kazam [/simterm] I set the Automatic save by default (to the ~/Videos): Now, chose an area to record… Read More »
Didn’t install upgrades for a couple of weeks, today packages to be upgraded became over 100, so I run it. Upgrades on my Arch Linux are installed with a simple alias in the.bashrc: … alias osupgrade=”yaourt -Syua –noconfirm” … (seems eventually it’s time to change it to the alias osupgrade=”yay -Syua –noconfirm”) The error Usually,… Read More »
Didn’t play in Albion Online for a while, but recalled about it and tried to play on my Arch Linux. It works fine from the Steam client, but I bought with a start package some time ago and can’t log in to Steam’s version with my old credentials. Okay – download game from the https://albiononline.com/ru/download,… Read More »
The main goal when I was buying a new PC with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti was an ability to play games on Arch Linux without reboots into Windows. For this need to install NVIDIA drivers so Linux will use it instead of nouveau (although I didn’t even try to run any game with nouveau).… Read More »
