Yeah thank you, I really hope we‘ll get some progress.

(Not doing it on purpose, it‘s just how kbin behaves 😅 really thinking about dropping it and give lemmy a try. Originally decided for kbin because I wanted both worlds but since the behaviour is so strange …yeah 😉)

@lemmyreader
Thank you for the suggestion, I really do appreciate anyone who could have a clue what could go wrong and takes the time trying to help me out.

Yeah, Ventoy is the latest I had to burn the ISOs on the USB and stayed with it since :)

@rufus
Alright, will try later and report back the outcome / pastebin if I can grab it

@lemmyreader

tried just right now. I get „booting a command list“ and nothing more, stays like that and USB Devices seem to be off.

@rufus

I‘m afraid that it‘s where it will fail, cause I can‘t get it to work with acpi on

I thought of getting the „bad installed“ (acpi=off) OS, let it start with acpi on and afterwards grab the logs again with acpi off, but don‘t know if that will work…

I will try and report back if I can get the dmesg output. But since I guess that the USB gets cut off right before something happens I guess there simply isn‘t.

Will try with the installed Nobara and see, if dmesg catches anything up at all

thanks for taking the time. I already asked over at the asus-linux discord about the issue but got no reactions up until now.

Turn off Safe Boot and features that inhibit booting other operating systems and USB media in your BIOS.

did already, unfortunately not working

Get the installer running. Try the failsafe and fallback video mode options.

all installers (except nobara) do fail when trying to get the bootloader installed, since efibootmgr seems to be in need of the acpi options and I don't get it running with acpi option on.

Tackle one problem at a time. Google it. Add your hardware in question (“Asus Strix G15”) and error message or exact issue (“black screen”) to your query.

that's exactly what I'm trying to do, first and most important (from my understanding) would be to get the OS booted from the USB with acpi on. I am going through google/DDG/qwant/whatever-search-engine to look it up and tried everything I was able to find in relation to my Hardware, but wasn't able to tackle the issue up until now, that's why I'm asking for help all over the reddits/lemmys/kbins/discords...

I can get Nobara - and only Nobara - installed so I can boot without USB, but there as well only with acpi off.

I tried with Fedora, Nobara, ubuntu LTS, pop!_os, GarudaOS, silverblue, Mint, with everyone having the issue not being able to boot without acpi=off and getting to a black screen and USBs (seem) powered off right after choosing the OS in grub.

appreciate your time replying, thank you.

@orsetto
it's not a laptop, it's a desktop.
Yes, I did download the -nvidia versions, didn't do the trick and daily run it with acpi=off is no option since many things don't work anyways with that setting

@anamethatisnt
Thanks for helping out, kbin kind of doesn‘t have the option but the functionality 🤷🏻‍♂️

won‘t work, since SL will not pass your sent e-mail to your own mailbox.
But you should be able to start a conversation with your alias from SL itself.

tbh I just worked around it (like e.g. with Notes or with uploading the files to drive and just have a link in my Pass to it). I'm pretty happy with Pass, even though it misses some features (of which some will be added in the future for sure). Since I was using other Proton Apps before already it was kind of a no-brainer for me and once I got used to (and accepted that I might be kind of an early adopter) I never looked back.

Pass isn‘t yet polished and there are bugs here and there showing up. Also the AutoFill doesn‘t work 100% of the time. And there are features missing like e.g. being able to upload attachements.

Considering the age of Pass vs 1Password, there is way to go for Pass. I made the switch, nevertheless, and once I got used to Pass, it‘s not that bad from my Point of view.

Surely the „create Alias‘ on the fly“ is a big plus, ehich I absolutely love and wouldn‘t want to miss anymore
