6.12.73 RT LTS
Open Terminal.
In the Terminal window, type the following commands:
(A) sudo apt install linux-image-6.12.73+deb13-rt-amd64
linux-headers-6.12.73+deb13-common-rt linux-kbuild-6.12.73+deb13

📘 Why use the MODICIA O.S.
“Kdenlive 25” package instead of the AppImage
The official AppImage is fine for testing, but on systems with
Kdenlive 24.x it often causes conflicts, while the MODICIA O.S.
package offers a clean, stable, fully integrated experience and
installs with one click from the Package Manager.
🔥 1. The AppImage conflicts with Kdenlive 24.x, different
settings formats, menus and panels may disappear, shortcuts may
break, layouts may corrupt, ✔ the MODICIA O.S. package uses a
separate profile so nothing interferes.
🔥 2. The AppImage does not create its own folders, missing
folders cause lost settings and layout problems, ✔ the MODICIA
O.S.package creates everything automatically.
🔥 3. The AppImage does not integrate into the system, no menu
entry, no icon, cannot be set as default editor, ✔ the MODICIA
O.S.package installs a full launcher with icon and category.
🔥 4. The AppImage is easy to lose, if moved or deleted Kdenlive
stops working, ✔ the MODICIA O.S. package installs it safely in
/opt/kdenlive25/.
🔥 5. The AppImage cannot be updated, no versioning or APT
integration, ✔ the MODICIA O.S. package updates and removes
cleanly like any other system package.
MODICIA O.S. (like most Linux distributions) assumes the
hardware clock is set to UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) and
then applies the timezone offset in the software.
When you switch between them, they "fight" over the time,
usually resulting in Windows being off by a few hours.
The cleanest way to fix this is to tell MODICIA O.S. to behave like Windows, meaning to use the local time for the hardware clock.
Open the terminal.
Type this command and press Enter:
timedatectl set-local-rtc 1 --adjust-system-clock
Reboot and go into Windows.
Sync the time one last time from Windows settings, and from that moment it will stay correct on both systems.
Proprietary NVIDIA drivers: Plymouth shows a
low-resolution image.
This is a classic Linux issue: when you install proprietary
NVIDIA drivers, the kernel often fails to set the correct
framebuffer resolution during the early stages of the boot
process. This causes Plymouth (the splash screen) to fall
back to a standard resolution (often 800x600 or 1024x768).
Here are the steps to force your monitor's native
resolution:
Here is how how the file should be modified to resolve
the blurry logo issue:
Changes to the sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
Add or modify these lines (I am using Full HD resolution as an example; if you have a 4K or different monitor, adjust the numbers accordingly):
GRUB_DEFAULT="saved"
GRUB_TIMEOUT="5"
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR='Modicia'
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT='quiet splash
nvidia-drm.modeset=1'
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
export GRUB_MENU_PICTURE="/opt/.Sys/mociciacompany.jpg"
export GRUB_COLOR_NORMAL="white/black"
export GRUB_COLOR_HIGHLIGHT="light-cyan/black"
GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT="true"
Adding this parameter to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
line is essential with recent NVIDIA drivers. It allows
the driver to enable KMS (Kernel Mode Setting) very early
during the boot process, preventing Plymouth from starting
with generic, low-resolution video drivers.
What to do now:
Save the file.
Run the command to regenerate the boot menu:
Bash
sudo update-grub
(Recommended on MODICIA O.S.) Update the boot image:
Bash
sudo update-initramfs -u
After rebooting, the Modicia OS logo should appear sharp and at the correct resolution.

~/.config/GIMP/3.0/scripts/ &&
rm Script-Fu.tar.gz
After running this single command,
you’ll find all 37 Script-Fu plugins
installed in your GIMP setup: 3D-Extrusion,
Alien-Neon-Logo, Antique Metal GMIC
QT, Antique-Metal-GMIC-QT, Arrow_V3,
Bumpy, Chisel-Dn, Dracula, Egg-Melt,
Emap, Furry_Logo_Alpha, Glossy,
Glossy_Metal_3D_Text_By_Monsoonami_Gimp,
Gt-Bevel, Heal-With-GMIC,

Script-Fu is a scripting extension
for GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation
Program) that allows users to automate
tasks and apply complex effects with a
single click. Written in Scheme, a
lightweight programming language,
Script-Fu enables the creation of custom
filters, text effects, image
transformations, and batch operations.
These scripts are especially useful for
designers and photographers who want to
streamline repetitive workflows or apply
consistent styling across multiple
images. Once installed, Script-Fu
plugins appear in GIMP’s dedicated
“Script-Fu” menu, making advanced
features easily accessible without
manual configuration. In short,
Script-Fu enhances GIMP’s capabilities
by turning powerful, multi-step
processes into simple, reusable tools.
These are the Script-Fu plugins currently compatible with GIMP 3.0. There are 37 in total, and once you run the Bash command, you’ll find them ready to use in GIMP’s new main menu, aptly named “Script-Fu”.

GRUB cannot detect Windows,
usually this is a boot loader
configuration issue.
Here are some possible solutions:
Preliminary Diagnosis
(A) Make sure Windows is installed
on an NTFS partition and hasn’t
been accidentally deleted.
(B) Check that Windows isn’t
installed in UEFI mode while Linux
uses legacy BIOS (or vice versa).
GRUB needs both systems to be
installed in the same mode.
Fixing the Issue
(01) This command forces a new
scan and might detect Windows:
bash: sudo update-grub
(02) Ensure that os-prober is
installed:
Check the file /boot/grub/grub.cfg
or /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober.
(03) Then enable its integration
with GRUB:
bash: sudo apt install
os-prober
bash: sudo gedit
/etc/default/grub
(04) Make sure you have this
line:
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
(05) If you find:
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true
#GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
(06) Edit it to:
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
(07) Then save and update GRUB:
bash: sudo update-grub
bash: sudo
See you in the next guide — TIn
recent years, for security
reasons, GRUB2 on Linux has
started to disable os-prober
to prevent automatic scans from
accessing sensitive partitions.
However, if you want GRUB to
detect Windows as well, you must
set that line to false.

of them are localized, so a bit of
English might come in handy. Your
game menu could turn into a video
game jungle — lots of titles, but
not all will match your style. On
older PCs or without a dedicated
GPU, the more “realistic”
simulators might struggle. And if
your internet connection is slow…
better make yourself a coffee
while it downloads.
See you in the next guide — You'll
find yourself surrounded by dozens
of ready-to-play titles, like
opening up an arcade right on your
PC. From high-speed rally thrills
to Tron-style lightcycle battles,
from city-building challenges to
transport tycoon strategy —
there's something for everyone.
And best of all? They’re all open
source — no purchases, no ads,
just pure gaming.
