watching TLE's review of KDE 6 and he keeps mentioning how KDE 6 defaults make better sense than KDE5's alluding to that if you're upgrading to it you'll keep your old settings, which idk if i want that, but i also don't want to (sigh) yet again, reinstall all my stuff

make a new user, log in, log out
then when plasma6 drops reference the other users folder to see what files to delete from

~/.config

~/.config

or just go through settings and just restore default on everything you can and hope for the best

Clozure•3/9/24, 7:46 PM

I think I'm going to give bazzite two years more to fix the papercuts and reinstall SteamOS meanwhile

[[REDACTED]Well now the nvidishit drivers will be hitting

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/9/24, 7:51 PM

I mean it has been hitting since the start

tryhardsoccermomswag•3/9/24, 7:51 PM

Nvidia drivers are the reason you had to reinstall like 5 times

[

[REDACTED]•3/9/24, 7:52 PM

True

Ttryhardsoccermomswag Nvidia drivers are the reason you had to reinstall like 5 times

Valerie•3/9/24, 7:54 PM

Reminds me of someone I spoke to in the Deck discord:
"I've tried to install HoloISO so many times, VM or on hardware it just won't work."
"Don't use HoloISO, it sucks. There are better alternatives."
"Why does it suck?"

[REDACTED]•3/9/24, 7:56 PM

Okay I think the drivers just struck me HARD

[REDACTED]•3/9/24, 7:56 PM

I love having to do a hard reset

Sprikk•3/9/24, 8:03 PM

Thanks! I found some earlier posts so ran all this, just installed the looking-glass host drivers on my windows vm, looking promising

[[REDACTED]How in the hell did connecting a MONITOR TO MY LAPTOP MAKE IT WORK

Kyle Gospo•3/9/24, 8:06 PM

If that's not a Nvidia driver moment

Kyle Gospo•3/9/24, 8:06 PM

Swear to god

The only reasonable explanation is that the hdmi port on my laptop is connected to the nvidia gpu which then made the first time boot up think that the primary gpu is the nvidia gpu and then it worked?

HikariKnight•3/9/24, 8:09 PM

if its muxed that way, checks out but still weird as hell

HikariKnight•3/9/24, 8:09 PM

as that muxing setup is rare from my experience

[REDACTED]•3/9/24, 8:09 PM

It’s the most logical explanation I can give since my laptop screen is connected to the igpu

it's also fine in the photo browser, it's just browser engines (including firefox, CEF) shitting the bed

Sprikk•3/9/24, 8:20 PM

I got the drivers installed in the windows VM and host application. If i execute looking-glass-client from my distrobox it connects to the VM but the host application in windows is crashing with "Not using unsupported adapter: Microsoft basic rendering driver" "Failed to find a supported capture device"

[[REDACTED]its actually really nice

Valerie•3/9/24, 8:20 PM

When Nvidia isn't getting in the way of things, it's a good experience
