Though the number of total Plasma 6 known issues rose this week, we managed to fix some major and longstanding ones from Plasma 5! You might recognize a few in the text below. Ultimately, these wer…

      Nvidia was worth $1,030,000,000,000 today, but still can’t get their drivers in the kernel.

      And it’s not because Linux has 1% marketshare, because Nvidia still bends over backwards to get their drivers working on Linux for ML training

    Oh thank gosh! Will certainly be happy to see that.

    Now if only I could find a way to fix the weird rendering issue that happens with Electron apps… and by a similar nature, screen sharing in Discord (on a whole screen-basis, rather than just only XWayland apps). Couldn’t get that to work even with xwaylandvideobridge. But, those aren’t KDE specific issues.

    I’m looking forward to the day I get to eventually just move off of Nvidia hardware.

      I accidentally ordered my Nvidia card. I had the one I’d been recommended open in a tab so I could compare AMD cards to it and ordered the wrong one! Instead of doing what I should have done and returning it and ordering the AMD, I thought how bad can it be? Well now I know!

      Indeed, I have to run Alt-space “plasmashell --replace” almost hourly.

      Overall I’m happy with NVidia+Wayland except for this bug, but it has been quite bothersome.

      Interestingly the bug have also been seen on AMD GPU, thus why the title is " Plasma panel visually (but not functionally) freezing on Wayland with Basic render loop and Non-Intel GPU when Task Manager previews are turned on".
