Can someone confirm whether patch works for 6.8 kernel or not? Or 6.7 too...
@NSLW I get similar problems to yours. Same info from kinfo and glxinfo. Strangley enough I can get Gwenview to work but it is System Settings that just shows me a window frame and hangs. Not having System Settings is a killer. I'd like to try different KWin settings but I can't get to them. This is a fresh install of with kernel 6.6.70-lts.
I think I'm going to have to fall back to nouveau :-(
As long as it starts and I can use it I can't complain. I don't have the anti aliasing issue try to copy your $HOME/gtk-3.0/settings.ini in gtk-4.0.
@Anakievs Yes, I'm aware of this. Though it gives me a crappy interface in XFCE with disabled antialiasing: https://ibb.co/T8wfTfb
Also, I've had problems with some flatpak with the above mentioned environment variable (the program didn't start at all).
What I'm trying to say is that it will give more and more issues in the future. All these variables and/or held packages will become useless "crutches", unfortunately.
@TheExplorer I've already told you about this. It still works GSK_RENDERER=cairo ghb
.
@NSLW That's what I'm talking about.
Today I tried to run a transcoder program called HandBrake which has GTK4 as a dependency. It didn't start giving me the only message in the console: "Aborted".
This driver is no more compatible with the new GTK4 (GTK4 removed support for GLX). I know nothing about KDE but I guess it is somehow connected.
The issue and the thread to read is here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/5858
We are actually doomed. Or, we can hold the needed packages. Well, until the system simply doesn't update anymore because of held packages.
Currently gtk2
is an optdepend
of nvidia-340xx-utils
.
But since nvidia-340xx*
always carries nvidia-settings
, this shall rather be a depend
.
@NSLW You might have higher chance with older version of kernel. The last patch is of 6.8. I haven't tested it personally. I'm on 6.6.3 and it works fine. Can't say about 6.8 or higher though.
Hi all, is nvidia-340xx working for you correctly? I started using Plasma 6 and when I open e.g. Gwenview, I get no content inside the window borders.
I get following errors from kwin_x11: failed to create drawable kwin_scene_opengl: Creating the OpenGL rendering failed: "Could not initialize rendering context"
My Xorg version is: xorg-x11-server-Xorg: 21.1.14
kinfo gives me a bad result: KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.7.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 Kernel Version: 6.11.5-300.fc41.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Graphics Processor: llvmpipe
glxinfo gives me a fine result: direct rendering: Yes
