Sounds like a major security risk. All it takes is one "hallucination" (and an overly trusting engineer) from the latest and greatest bullshit generator to compromise an entire network
I've been using Ubuntu since 12.04 LTS, and old habits die hard. There have been many attempts by my peers to steer me toward Arch and NixOS, but Ubuntu suits my needs and I am used to it after a decade
It's possible that the issue you're running into is with Proton and not your GPU. My anecdote is that running Ubuntu 22 LTS (which Linux Mint, Pop! OS, etc. are all based on) with my 3060 has always worked just fine—usually for machine learning and video rendering. I'm not a gamer, but the occasional Minecraft session does get the GPU kicking.
I do not get any messages. I'm starting to think there is an issue with my motherboard's USB-C port. If I can get my hands on a USB-C to USB-A adapter, I can test this theory...
Definitely the latter. I have only tried using the Flatpak version of Firefox, but the system won't even detect the key so it's no shock Firefox can't either...
I appreciate the detailed response. I looked at the Arch wiki page and ensured that I have all packages listed. Still, the output of ykman info is "Error: No YubiKey detected!" :P
Ate em up
