amatechawhere can I provide notes/feedback?  Contents iii is indented differently from the other Contents pages' indentation.   For 6.1 if it was me I would call it "Pre-installed" rather than "Preinstalled" but that's just a personal judgement.  "Pre-installed" is more clear/explicit IMO00:31
amatecha(not sure Contents iii indent matters, it's gotta be intentional margins for left/right pages, cuz Contents i is the same, and the convention follows on further pages.. nevermind then!  lol00:35
amatechaI would also say "multi-touch" instead of "multitouch", but again that's a judgement call00:46

Esiminute: oh I might be tempted to read through that all also. Part of my uni studies was on book editing, proofreading, publishing, etc, and would love to refresh my memory a little bit.11:46
Esii'll see if i can spot something if you dont mind11:47
lidstahhi all, I've updated (well, made a new post as I wasn't able to edit my older post) the game list in https://community.mnt.re/t/mnt-reform-gaming-thread/608/126 . It's still available at https://arkham.lidstah.info/reform-games.html, and I've also setup a tor hidden service: http://k6x7mmdbje4xc2f6i6zs5cy7uwceeeiqtsgawedkxrci7mpqi6qkktyd.onion/reform-games.html .11:48
Esion that note, was in a car on the way up to my farm yesterday and needed to read some school material in pdf form  on my Pocket. Because of small screen it was a bit of a pain in the arse but i realized i could rotate the screen, and the pocket, and voila... it was like holding a relatively heavy book made out of metal.11:48
Esioh sweet lidstah. will check that out11:49
lidstahhello Esi :)11:49
lidstahI just added 7 games, with 3 (old school) FPS for some LAN fun :)11:49
lidstahthe rest is roguelikes, and Dominions 6 (which runs great, amazingly deep turn-based strategy game, playable in hotseat and thus eating a good chunck of me and my son's spare time xD)11:51
Esilovely11:51
lidstahroadwarden is really good too11:52
lidstahadventure/lots of text game, perfect for those long winter evenings :)11:52
lidstahUnrealWorld too, I was really happy getting it running but it does needs two files (immutables, chattr +i) which are generated at first launch and which fails to generate on the reform, so you have to install it on a x86 computer, launch the game once, copy those two files on the reform and chattr +i them, and after that it runs perfect with box6411:56
Esii should look into steamcmd...11:56
Esisteam client is a bit heavy on the pocket through box11:57
lidstahtry steamarm beta too!11:57
- cli (QUIT: Remote host closed the connection) (~m-vsauiy@user/cli)11:57
lidstahit's not hard to setup11:57
Esisteamarm beta? oh i had no idea11:57
Esiwhere is that?11:57
lidstahand runs quite well11:57
lidstahtwo secs, lemme check11:58
+ cli (~m-vsauiy@user/cli)11:58
lidstahdamn, I should have documented it11:59
Esihaha11:59
lidstahhttps://interfacinglinux.com/community/sbcsoftware/native-steam-client-for-arm-linux/ 12:01
lidstahgenerally, I install games with steamcmd, then if they do need steam launched, I put a steam_appid.txt file with their steam id in their folder, then launch steam and run them manually with box64 (for e.g KOTOR 2)12:02
lidstahsome other games don't even need steam running (Darkest dungeon, Dominions 5 and 6 (they do need a valid game key which steam provides), and so on)12:03
lidstahI do precise in the game list when the game needs steam running in the background12:03
Esilovely. thank you so much12:07
lidstahyou're welcome :)12:08
lidstahI'm quite impressed by the Reform RK3588 gaming capabilities12:08
lidstahand box64 too12:08
lidstahthat's not a gaming laptop but there's a fair amount of interesting/fun/time consuming (looking at you Dominions 5 & 6) games playable.12:11
joschlidstah: i am told fex (what valve uses) is even better in some situations -- if games are your thing, maybe also check out fex!12:11
lidstahway more than what I thought12:11
lidstahjosch: yeah it's in my "need to test it" list :D12:11
lidstahand hi josch :)12:11
lidstahThe only thing I'm a bit sad is that I haven't found a good PS2 emulator (there's Play! via flatpak but it has a flickering problem) just to play Wizardry: Tales of a Forsaken Land (pure nostalgia factor). Play! does run it - and quite decently FPS-wise - but the text flickering is too annoying for a good gaming experience.12:17
lidstahespecially since that's the kind of game where you spend a lot of time in menus/submenus reading stats and so on12:18
lidstahI should test amiberry or other amiga emulators, too (another thing in the todo list :'))12:20
