Thank you.
About the drama:
Because normally you do the update from the terminal and normally it does not notify anything, it told me that it was going to remove the kernel 5.9 driver but I was using 5.11, that was the message, nothing more … So the drama is that I have to do a clean install in my daily driver.
I know is not your fault.
Me neither, I always do a Timeshift backup before updating, especially if I’m on the testing or unstable branch.
Exactly this👆 . I just don’t get it, seriously with Linux it’s the simplistic thing in the world to do backup/restore. There’s even ready made scripts in the repos to automatically backup everytime you update.
I get the point about updating the op with the nvidia issues but that’s the only issue even if it can be called an issue
Good to know. I can confirm that I can run gtk3-widget-factory again after installing gtk3-demos. Thanks a bunch!
Not 100% sure this update is causing it, but very likely: Firefox 88 glitches with hw acceleration on Intel i915
You may want to check out Vivaldi to see if other browsers have similar issues. Also there is a developer version of Firefox available.
I also use opera and don’t experience an issue there.
no issues on firefox & google-chrome with this update on i915
