Dark Photon Studio#Wayland is finally becoming a serious issue for me as a #Linux user. I have an #Nvidia card and I need the proprietary driver. #XFCE doesn't force it on users (yet) but I recently wanted to try #KDE but on #Manjaro it's shipping Wayland by default and I just couldn't figure out how to start up an x11 session. As a side issue, grub2 bts or blt or whatever the fuck it's called, makes it really difficult for dual booting, as it just ignores #Windows installs. This is the kind of shit #opensource proponents accuse #Microsoft of doing. Time to switch to #refine I guess. I'm not happy with Linux at the moment. Furthermore, I think that #Gnome must be destroyed.
Root MooseMore monkeying around with OpenBSD. I spent a bunch of time getting LXQt working but the themeing was taking too much time so I threw more ram at the VM and installed KDE. The goal was to learn about OpenBSD, not LXQT. Ha.
Lots of the standard apps are there in OpenBSD but I need to find out how to get Librewolf and Waterfox going. Having done zero research, I'm assuming I need to compile from source.
I saw an article out using "Molly" as an alternate Signal Messenger client (xn--gckvb8fzb.com/if-you-must-use-signal-use-molly/). May try it in the future.
The KDE Plasma version is 6.4.5. IIRC KDE is stopping X11 support so I will need to figure out something else I guess. I've seen threads about Wayland on OpenBSD but didn't go down the rabbit hole yet. What little I read implied not ready for prime time.
The VM feels pretty snappy even though the QEMU agent doesn't really help with video options. This is using the VGA driver setup to get a decent resolution.
I really need to get this Jeep back on the road. I miss it.
