This is consistent with a comment on the nvidia forum (see forwarded link, response 16) saying that they have adressed the issue. > We don't have that in there by default, not even commented. Yes, I know... When I first had the issue with Gnome being ugly to unuseable in Jan 2022, it took me quite some time to figure this out eventually find the solution… So I wonder if it would be actually be better, if enabled by default? The bug in Ubuntu - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1876632 shows that this affects quite some people… -- tobi [1] Went surpisingly smooth. Kudos for your packaging work! A patch, module/debian/conftest-verbose.patch was not applying, and it seems that there is no longer a library for lib${nvidia}-nvvm4 and I had to add one entry to nv-readme.ids, and basically then it built :)
