Problem with Installing/Updating Endeavour OS

[SinCanDory]

So finally I moved to Endeavour OS, installed it but I am having issues with updating it.

I'm trying to follow this guide: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=StHVU-Zvacs

My "Welcome" box says "no internet connection" but I clearly have, as I can use internet. I did the first step but when I try to update system it says "connection failed" and then asks for password but doesn't let me input something. Same as terminal. Doesn't let me write anything. I can only put my password when something needs access or something. Anyone can help? I couldn't find proper help on İnternet

When i tested Mint there was a small button on the taskbar on the right side which allowed me to update Mint . It worked well and i got the proper video driver instead of a generic one .

Mint is based on Ubuntu which won't work with OP's system because he has the latest hardware, Ubuntu 22.04 (the latest LTS that many distros run) only supports up to Ampere and RDNA2.

Arch Linux and its variants like EndeavourOS and Manjaro are updated for that pretty often because they don't use LTS releases, they have rolling updates.

i dont push the OP to Mint just pointed out the way i updated my Linux .

Gaming on Linux was a complete disaster for me , so i removed it completely . I guess one needs to have more powerful PC to run games on Linux . Otherwise layers slows the rig down .

Linux generally runs better with AMD hardware than others because AMD supports Linux. Probably not the best fit for a 1650.

Have you tried POP OS already? I'd give that a try if i was you, especially with your nvidia gpu.

I've been daily driving that on an older notebook with an nvidia GPU and it works fine using proton, wine, native..

Is there any other way to update system? As I heard there is a driver update for Radeon 7000 series, especially for the power consumption problem of the cards, but I don't know if it is installed automatically or not and wanted ease my sanity.

As for terminal, I am even more confused now because I put the password and press enter, it says wrong password or something and wants me to repeat. Tried several times but it just refuse.

Endeavour most likely has a graphica app store. You can updating your system using it.

If it doesn't have one you can instead use the following command to run updates.

sudo pacman -Syu

These drivers are a part of Linux and Mesa, they are updated during normal system updates.

If it says wrong password you typed the wrong password.

Thank you so much. Everything works great now. Couldn't be happier right now :)

I just have a question though. I want to have my games on a second drive. I somehow manage to have the second drive showing up under driver list and installed a game on it from steam, but once I restarted the pc, steam shows as the game is not installed. how I can make it work? like having either the driver showing constantly or steam recognising the location of the games?

Edit: nvm, I got stupid. I found the mistake I did. Seems like I created an unnecessary folder and installed there when I downloaded for the first time

[SinCanDory]

it's a bit spam at this point but I have a small question, in case someone sees: I am installing my games on a second SSD as it has bigger space but every time I shutdown/restart the pc the second SSD requires to be "mounted" again. Is there a way to keep it mounted?

It started to be annoying that the games are not ready when I open steam, and keep getting reminded with "the game is already installed in a unmounted drive" or something like this.

If you have a disk management program you can use it to add your disk to the fstab file. fstab defines all disks and partitions which are automatically mounted.

Or manually add it to the /etc/fstab file, but be careful, if you mess it up you might make your system unbootable.

It's just not possible. I wish it was.

I'd argue in many ways Linux is actually ahead of Windows when gaming. Lower overhead, lower input latency, quite often better performance. The only thing it is has issues with are games with intrusive DRM and anti-cheat, this primarily affects live service multiplayer games.

I've yet to see a single person on Twitch use Linux as a daily-driver OS for Gaming.

That tells me not enough games run properly on Linux overall.

If it was good enough for such a thing, I'm sure many of the bigger streamers would have done away with using WinOS long ago.

Streamers are very much average users. They do not care about what they use, nor do most of them understand it.

I'm talking about good streamers. The ones who know PC stuff inside and out.
Not these boobie-flasher streamers who had "Daddy" setup that PC for them to begin with.
