Hello everyone! I know that Linux GUI advanced in last few years but we still lack some good system configuration tools for advanced users or sysadmins. What utilities you miss on Linux? And is there any normal third party alternatives?

    LACT. Though I don’t know if it can OC Nvidia, Nvidia support is quite new.

        Same here. I’m using CorrCTRL for my 6800XT and the VRAM OC is not working properly, will give LACT a try

          Chances are that it doesn’t work there either. What actually does the OC is the kernel; the GUIs merely write the desired values into the correct files in /sys.

        I usually just feed my questions into three different LLMs plus ddg with site:reddit and then check consensus. As good as it gets.

        But then last time I’ve managed to discover DeadBeeF through IRC.

          yeah thats how i find them, we have good app stores on linux that could use some community curation though!

          its common on linux for software to be abandoned, only for a fork to pop up elsewhere and it gets annoying.
