Proton Windows 7
Brian
On the Windows desktop, I'd like to be able to open Mail in one window and Calendar in another window, so I can toggle between them without losing anything I'm doing -- e.g., without having to minimize a new email or close an event. Each window would appear separately in the Taskbar (ideally with distinct icons, but identical icons would be better than nothing).
When I tested the first few iterations of the desktop app on Windows, it opened a new window and that was awesome. When the Linux desktop app was release, it made me very sad I can't open both of them as it just replaces the window content. I don't know how other platforms work now, but the Linux client can't open both of them which is very very sad, I would love to keep them side by side on one workspace, I have big enough monitor :)
Totally agree. I think that the idea of having an app for each function on each system is the best option. Having mail / calendar / contact splitted between three softwares in my PC, smartphone, web app, is the standard in Windows, Mac, Nextcloud ... And so should it be on Proton. I don't know if it's the best for everyone, but as it's the standard, it is what I am more familiar with, so the more produtive with.
Hello, this is a pretty simple request to allow people the ability to download the current bundled Email + Calendar software, but also allow people who do not want their emails loaded locally the chance to install the Calendar only.
Thank you for reading!
Allow me to open both Mail and Calendar in separate windows. Currently, it seems that only one window can be open, and either Mail or Calendar can be shown. I want to be able to see both at the same time.

However, cloning the qpid-proton repository from GitHub and following instructions to install using Python, CMake, Swig and Visual Studio works fine and the projects builds binaries without a problem, and deploys them in C:\Program Files (x86)\Proton...
The error c1083 is pretty generic and just means that the compiler could not find the file it was looking for. In your case, the file name is empty. The file name is empty because it exceeded the limit of what is allowed by the compiler (probably around 255 characters).
In our case, we resolved the issue by changing the temporary directory where pip builds the files. Since this was Windows, we used set TMPDIR=c:\tmp and then ran pip install python-qpid-proton. The files then compiled correctly and the package was installed.
Announced on August 21st, 2018, Proton is based on Wine and includes additional components like the wrappers DXVK (which translates Direct3D 8, 9, 10 and 11 calls to Vulkan on the fly), vkd3d-proton (which translates Direct3D 12 to Vulkan), and FAudio (an XAudio reimplementation). As a rework of Steam Play, it avoids having to set up an additional Steam installation for Wine, which used to be the only way to get Windows-only Steam games working on Linux.
Proton is included in the Steam Linux client by default, and Valve whitelists over 100 games known to work out-of-the-box.[2] However, by changing a switch in Steam's settings, Proton can be enabled for all Windows games even if they don't currently work.[N 1] Proton can also be force-enabled per game to run the Windows version of games that already have a Linux port on Steam.[3] In addition to Steam's Linux client, Proton also comes included in Valve's own Linux distro SteamOS, which is designed for dedicated PC gaming systems, such as Valve's Steam Deck.
As of 2024, the only games that still don't work with Proton are mostly multiplayer games that use third-party anti-cheat systems.[N 2] However, Valve seems to be working on a solution for running third-party anti-cheat systems on the Steam Deck, which may be extended to other Linux distros in the future.[4]
All the tests I did on Arch are the same as I did on Manjaro.
In Manjaro I don't use any parameters and the game runs without problem.
Steam flatpak runs the games with proton without any parameters (tested on Arch)
"Manjaro" w/o version is meaningless and flatschpak shovels an entire 2nd OS onto your system which will have legacy libraries.
There's no discernable error in the steam output, the game/proton simply quits so it's likely that there's an ABI incompatibility.
Is this a hybrid graphics system?
No.
I only know that hybrid graphics is available on laptops
Why are we using libGLX_mesa.so.0 ?
I have no answer for this question
On my pc (windows 11) I used firefox in the past and then switched to brave. To this day I use brave and am doing very well. At work I am obliged to use microsoft edge, I must say I am doing very well. Does it make sense to use microsoft edge with proton vpn and all privacy settings turned on? (e.g., https on, do not store password, tracker on hard, do not track on, security on hard web, etc...) Or better to keep using brave always with proton vpn? I think if you enable all the settings by default, maybe the browsers are almost all the same in the end. I am looking for security and also privacy.
Edge for sure has been one of the most secure browsers on win 11 over the years. But the biggest difference to other browsers (JIT toggle with working WASM) is now available on all Chromium-based desktop browsers with a different implementation. It still has a few differences over other Chromium browsers which you can see with the sysinterals process explorer. For example it has stack protection enabled, while Chrome doesn't. Also the integrity token shows Appcontainer instead of untrusted for the renderers.
The question is are you willing to deal with all the privacy invasive features Edge has and will likely continue to get. You need to check each update for new invasive features. Would recommend to check out Edge's privacy whitepaper to get an impression of Edge's privacy: -us/microsoft-edge/privacy-whitepaper/
In addition to the explanations provided by TheGodFather, Edge is also the only web browser on Windows to correctly support hardware isolation with WDAG, so it's also worth using it if you're looking to reduce the attack surface. Now yes, it's not a very privacy-friendly Chromium browser, but on the other hand, if your machine is already running Windows, you're already transmitting data to them.
Vanadium is more secure and private than Cromite, Vanadium support ad blocking, it is planned to extend ad blocking to uBlock Origin lists. In Vanadium, open a web page, press the icon to the left of the URL, then in Permissions, you'll find Javascript JIT and ads blocked.
I'd like to use Vanadium, but Cromite has way more features in my opinion (the biggest one is content/ad blocking - WHY isn't this in Vanadium??)
The only issue I have( which I have already reported to the devs) with Cromite is that WebAuthn doesn't work
Xtreix Vanadium is more secure and private than Cromite, Vanadium support ad blocking, it is planned to extend ad blocking to uBlock Origin lists. In Vanadium, open a web page, press the icon to the left of the URL, then in Permissions, you'll find Javascript JIT and ads blocked
TheGodfather No. Basically only MS Edge and MS Office Enterprise have it. It's a lightweight VM and will be deprecated anyway:
-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-security-windows-defender-application-guard
You're bringing in a massive amount of attack surface when you have no certainty that its tools are working properly or that it won't cause unexpected behavior, the only way to reduce telemetry as much as possible is to use Group Policy and the registry with Windows Enterprise.
Yes agree. MSEdge may be secure, but we are talking about very sophisticated security improvements against attacks needing a 0day on modern worldwide used Webbrowsers by multiple of the richest companies on earth.
It is simply not really likely that this enhanced protection will be needed, while it is a fact that this browser collects a ton of data (unlike ungoogled Chromium or Firefox) that Windows doesnt collect.
Brave is bloated, but these elements can be disabled and possibly also not compiled, which I will try to do. They do seem to care about privacy, but at the same time the company and CEO is EXTREMELY shady.
On Desktop I would always use Firefox instead of some Chromium fork. And as explained above, also instead of Chromium, which always sends data to Google no matter the settings. And also, Firefox takes security serious and their implementation is different and for sure less documented but saying "it is less secure" is a huge oversimplification.
Also I personally care infinitely more about not letting websites track me or infect my device, than I care about the OS sending anonymous telemetry about my usage of said OS. I can't imagine I'm alone in that.
No, you cannot. Use a Network Tap, dump the traffic and check with Wireshark urself. Beside unplugging the PC from the Network, you cannot disable the transfer of data completely. Also MS is not that transparent to give real details what's in the Telemetry data and what's not.
Some weeks ago, Steam announced a new addition to Steam Play with Linux support for Windows games using Proton, a fork from WINE. This capability is still in beta, and not all games work. Here are some more details about Steam and Proton.
using dkms for kernel update of the nvidia drivers, currently running 410.57 on fedora 28, and every kernel update automatically recompiles the driver, during the kernel update. If you have a problem, it could mean some of the necessary components for dkms or gcc are not installed.
