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.

How come when I try to create a new obs screen, it is black, whether or not i toggle off the visibility on Screen Capture and how do i get it to show the capture settings, like which monitor, or what portion of the screen, to be clear, the! first capture works, for some reason no other capture i try to create is letting me configure or display anything

There is a chance this might be related to another issue I had, but I dont know a fix (I have to manually add what portals I want to install due to a bug, but I have the plasma portals so that should be enough?)

I had this same issue using certain compositors, the last I remember was Niri, with Wayland. Which compositor do you use?
