 @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | I blindly hope those can somehow improve mi situation. | 15:57:01 |
 K900 | NVK will help even with XWayland | 16:05:38 |
| K900 | If your hardware is supported | 16:05:41 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | It's a 3060, I hope so. | 16:07:41 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | Anyway, I think I'm going to try playing in KDE5/6. | 16:08:00 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | Because it's been a long while since I've used a DE and I've heard that they might support Wayland on Nvidida a tad better. | 16:08:30 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | Regardless, I want to try it now since I've been reading it's updates. Gonna make a specialization. | 16:09:14 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | Is there an easy option to enable KDE6? Or do I need to build the derivation myself and launch it from TTY? | 16:09:52 |
| K900 | It's not merged yet | 16:10:19 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | So then I need to build it from kde2nix? | 16:11:04 |
| K900 | So you need to apply changes from my PR to your nixpkgs | 16:10:26 |
| K900 | But if you do that there's a NixOS option, yes | 16:10:34 |

So you need to apply changes from my PR to your nixpkgs Yeah, I've realized the repo is now archived. | 16:11:35 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | You are the one doing it. That's cool. :) | 16:12:04 |
| K900 | kde2nix is a little bit behind the latest changes on the PR | 16:11:42 |
| K900 | Because it quickly became very annoying having to merge stuff back and forth | 16:11:56 |
| K900 | But it is still usable | 16:12:06 |
| K900 | Mostly | 16:12:17 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | I guess that since both the module and KDE6 are not yet released I should follow the most up to date branch which in this case is the PR. | 16:13:15 |
| K900 | You could also just point your nixpkgs at the PR branch | 16:12:33 |
| K900 | I rebased it earlier today so now it's mostly up to date on the rest of nixpkgs | 16:12:48 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | The only pain point it's going to be having to:
- Build it.
- Persist the required files.
| 16:13:59 |
| K900 | The changes between kde2nix and the PR are mostly in the packaging itself | 16:13:39 |
| K900 | They're both built from the same upstream source code, which is currently 6.0-rc2 | 16:13:55 |
| K900 | A final 6.0 release is planned for the 28th | 16:14:14 |
| K900 | So it's unlikely there will be any more big rebuilds | 16:14:25 |
| @sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org | In reply to @k900:0upti.me
But if you do that there's a NixOS option, yes Do you recommend me doing that or just poiting my nixpkgs to the PR branch? | 16:14:58 |
| K900 | Until that happens and then I'll probably just merge the PR | 16:14:37 |
| K900 | So it'll get built by Hydra in a few days | 16:14:50 |
| K900 | I mean, I do not trust myself to track unstable with that branch | 16:15:33 |
