 Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850) | It tells the kernel, i think to use GPU 0 or 1. | 21:23:24 |
 matthewcroughan | The kernel? | 21:23:34 |
| matthewcroughan | Like, Linux? | 21:23:37 |
| matthewcroughan | I would have thought only the processes would care about this var | 21:23:48 |
| Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850) | Yeah, I dont know, it just magic for me. | 21:24:23 |
| matthewcroughan | yeah fair, that's how most of that is when interacting with steam | 21:24:39 |
| matthewcroughan | * yeah fair, that's how most of that is when interacting with steam and graphics libs | 21:24:48 |

| matthewcroughan | What annoys me is the lack of name spacing on magic vars | 13:06:38 |
| matthewcroughan | like why is it not MESA_DRI_PRIME | 13:06:43 |
 K900 | DRI is Direct Rendering Infrastructure | 13:08:30 |
| K900 | DRI is the prefidx | 13:08:32 |
| K900 | DRI is the prefix | 13:08:33 |
| K900 | Because it's not used by just Mesa, at least on X | 13:08:39 |

 eyJhb | Redacted or Malformed Event | 19:24:16 |
| eyJhb | Is there anything with Steam + Nvidia + Plasma + Wayland that would result in this error after like.. 5 minutes? | 19:24:17 |

| K900 | They just shipped an update a few hours ago | 19:26:55 |
| K900 | That is supposed to fix steamwebhelper crashes | 19:27:00 |
| eyJhb | How would one get that update? | 19:31:00 |
| K900 | It just popped up for me | 19:31:13 |
| K900 | Try manually checking for updates maybe? | 19:31:20 |
| eyJhb | Can't even open Steam | 19:31:55 |
| eyJhb | Like, this is what is shown when trying to open it, after like .. Minutes of just waiting | 19:32:10 |
| eyJhb | And for some reason it's not even possibe to kill the steam process as well. Like sudo kill -9 <pid> doesn't even work. | 19:34:27 |
| eyJhb | Seems cursed. | 19:34:34 |
| eyJhb | Seems to have been an issue with impermanence and bindfs | 19:45:03 |
