From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I upgraded today!

Encountered only one multimonitor issue with one panel migrating to the primary display after logout/restart, but otherwise, smooth sailing.

Wayland session even seems stable on Nvidia again (I have nothing but regrets about that GPU choice I made 4 years ago).

Does it? I can't login on Wayland at all, which was working on 5.27.

Wild. 5.27 broke it completely for me! (2070 Super)

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 5 points 6 months ago

5.27 Wayland was also broken for me and my 2070s. However kde 6 Wayland seems to be good so far.

I tried using my Nvidia GPU with Wayland on Plasma 6. For most normal applications it seems fine, however, HDR doesn't work properly and some games like Minecraft have a flickering image. At least they fixed the blur and flickering in Firefox.

Using latest Arch Nvidia package.

@Botzo
I upgraded also, had trouble with custom service menus I use, found out by myself now they must be in ~/.local/share/kio/servicemenus/ instead of ~/.local/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/, nowhere online anybody says anything about that. Weird.

I really hope so. 5.27 Wayland is pretty janky for me, even though I use AMD.

I had the same panel bug I fixed it by removing and adding my panels
