Uhhhh
getting into desktop ain't much of a problem from here
Nice but I did reboot cuz I'm dumb when using Linux
startplasma-wayland should doI'm on gnome
Wish I did KDE but yeah
then it's
gnome-session i thinkOK how do I get back there I did sudo reboot for some reason
Srry
ctrl+alt+f3 would normally get you to a tty
There
IMA try it
Did I type it right because didnt work
you did if you didn't you'd get an error
But then why dont I see it
what about
mutter?
I think gnome got cooked
hmm maybe
mutter --wayland?Oh not full error let me retake
Linux's bsodπ€£
Do you think I should reinstall?
this probably isn't that much of an issue
try sudo systemctl stop gdm
sudo systemctl start gdm
if you don't wanna
I can't get into terminal nowπ
then there's lots we can try
What do I do
ctrl+alt+f4
to get to another terminal
Nice I'm back
there are like 7 terminals
after you try restarting the systemd service then
dbus-run-session -- gnome-shell --wayland
f1-f7
oh it's gnome-shell --wayland
don't use gnome so didn't remember
yeah gnome went wayland only but that should only be on 49 not 48
Lol that's why If I have to reinstall I'm using KDE also cuz gnome bad
Just blink now
weird
so mutter starts
Oh I think thats why cuz steam was tryna do no Wayland maybe
not the shell
I'm just gonna spend 5 hours reinstalling
Cuz I have to do extra junk cuz I have windows
i wonder if something like
mutter --wayland -- gnome-terminal
would start a terminal in mutterIf KDE is more familiiar maybe stick with KDE. Gnome is ok but it's all about preference right?
& then we try starting the shell from there
gotta run- sorry couldn't be more useful.
assuming bazzite has gnome-terminal
you could just make a new user & try to start gnome from there
just to make sure it works
Idk how I just bought a new USB hub (I'm on rog ally and hub I used is broke.) Its gonna come today and im just gonna reinstall
Also ik how just can't
So this is when I'm gonna fix it
