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.

The openSUSE Tumbleweed rolling release Linux distribution has begun rolling out the KDE Plasma 6.0.1, Gear 24.02 apps, and Frameworks 6.0 packages. Plasma 5 is being replaced within the Tumbleweed repository but openSUSE Tumbleweed isn't yet transitioning to the Wayland session by default.

Had to switch back to X11 because of novideo being shit. Tried 525, 535, and 540 and vscode would flicker like that one light at the back of the gas station nobody likes to visit because all they sell are stale cigarettes

The latest driver should be 550 series. If VS Code is running under xwayland then you are probably going to be waiting a few more months for explicit sync to be finished in xwayland and various other pieces of the graphics stack https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/967. Since vs code is electron you can try running it with the wayland command line arguments --ozone-platform=wayland. There might be some other arguments you need to pass depending on the version of electron.

I'll have to look into this a bit more. The guy at the end of the comment chain says his chromium stuff is still flickering, but I'll give it a whirl when I don't strictly need a working dev environment :P

Am also back to X11, because xsetwacom doesn't work with wayland

[–] Communist@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

What do you need xsetwacom for that isn't working with the native settings manager?

I want to map the surface of the tablet to the bottom left quarter of the screen so that xournal++ doesn't take up all my screen space. I don't think that's possible with gnome settings

https://github.com/OpenTabletDriver/OpenTabletDriver pretty sure this tool is what you're looking for!

Also went back to x11 because of vscode flickering and redrawing badly. I'm not sure whether it's an nvidia problem, a vscode problem, or a kwin-wayland problem though.
