Yeah that’s what I’m unsure about unfortunately. I’d be very surprised if that disabled Wayland. At one point, there was some remote desktop software that disabled Wayland silently, to get around the security restrictions of Wayland… But this project wouldn’t be bound by any Wayland restrictions as far as I can tell.

Hmm, so as long as you have 510 or above on the Nvidia driver you should not be getting blocked by that. I’m unfortunately not sure then.

Perhaps you could try installing sddm which is KDE’s display manager (the equivalent of GDM) and see if it shows the Wayland option?

Pretty sure it doesn’t require the whole KDE suite, once it’s installed run:

sudo systemctl disable gdm && sudo systemctl enable sddm and reboot, then you should get SDDM and can try to change the session type at the bottom left.

Note that when using SDDM, you can’t lock your screen in Gnome since that is tied to GDM - you’ll get a notification saying that the screen lock isn’t available.

If SDDM doesn’t show it either, then somehow I think you’d be missing the actual session entry files? Not sure how that would happen though.

Hmm, I know at one point GNOME/GDM locked out Wayland for Nvidia cards - but that hasn’t been the case for a while (and possibly was distro specific).

Is there any output from:

cat /etc/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules
cat /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules

If you haven’t already, it’s worth a shot!

Out of curiosity, and I can’t think of why it would affect it - the WaylandEnable= is generally commented out instead of explicitly set. What happens if you put a # in front of that line to comment it out again?

Ah I see, that’s unfortunate then. For what its worth, I still think the bot is a great idea for discoverability and bridging the two services together! I hadn’t seen it before since I usually have bot users muted and happened to see this comment chain while logged out.

I’ve given it a follow from my Mastodon account since I do tend to miss quite a few cool Lemmy posts it seems, and I think it’ll help me find some communities in general that I’ll want to subscribe to from over here.

I wonder if perhaps wrapping the majority of the text in a spoiler would work. Though I don’t know if that translates over to Mastodon (if not, it might look a bit funky on that side).

And additionally, to the community at large - admins, moderators, people who post/comment - we all have played a major part in expanding Lemmy and the Fediverse in general!

Correct, it just makes a link to the video itself!

Precisely, yep! It follows the same rules as subscribing to communities on Lemmy however - if you’re the first on an instance to subscribe, it may not pull the full backlog of videos - and at least one person needs to be subscribed for the instance to continue getting updates from the channel.

Try heading to !thelinuxexperiment_channel@tilvids.com for example, and you’ll see Nick’s channel come up as a community and each video that they upload will be its own “post”.

Note that when you lookup stuff on PeerTube, you have to use the channel name - not the uploader’s username. So the one I linked would work, but if you replaced the start with thelinuxexperiment it wouldn’t work, since that is a user and not a channel.

And if you really want even more barebones, you can just do git init --bare into a directory on your VPS, and then git clone user@your.ip.here:path/to/the/directory and use git as you would normally!

Similar thing here on my MacBook, upgrade went smoothly just needed to force rebuild the kmod-wl package for the Broadcom wireless driver to restore networking.

Here’s a link in case anyone runs into the same thing.

That green that you’ve got there is very easy on the eyes, nice!

Sometimes the only way out is through :)

Hit escape to enter normal mode, :q to quit if you don’t have any pending changes, :wq to save and quit (or Shift ZZ), :q! if you don’t care about your changes (save without exiting)

If you’re interested in learning Vim, I’d recommend running vimtutor, which should be present on most systems. But of course, the best way to learn it is to simply use it as much as you can!

I guess it depends on if you’re the type of person who sees VSCode as an IDE or just a text editor.

Vim is effectively the same way.

Yep, my desktop PC may or may not have one of its SSDs not mounted…

And you really don’t want it to either. That could cause all sorts of privacy issues if you accidentally include private information in the conversation - and as far as I have heard it is harder to remove information from LLMs than it is to “add” information to it.

Also Microsoft’s Tay could adapt itself based on conversations and that went real well…

Well they clearly do not normally review snap packages either…
