  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Firefox kept crashing because of explicit sync. Nothing new for an nvidia user such as myself. Still never going back to xorg.

    Oh sweet not just me then! Hoping this one gets fixed soon

    Thanks, I wish the same for you friend! I use arch so they're pretty fast at fixing stuff. Yesterday they pushed an update that minimized the crashing but it'll probably be totally fixed by today or tomorrow unless it's a driver bug.

    I was a terrible citizen and ignored the problem instead of reporting the bug. I just wanted to get some coding done so I just clicked the restart Firefox button over and over. That minor fix did wonders though! It only crashed two more times to my recollection.

    The new nvidia driver has explicit sync, wayland perfect for me since I updated it a week or so ago.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (2 children)

    Yes it was perfect in Wayland till yesterday when I updated and fire fox started crashing with explicit sync errors

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

    wuh oh, I haven't updated in a while, only a couple times since the explicit sync fix and I haven't had any issues. I was just planning on doing that today though...

    Yeah, I just finished my upgrade this morning and got crashing, easy downgrade but hopefully wayland and nvidia can play nice consistently soon lol

    Set MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0 before starting Firefox and it doesn't crash anymore

    Thanks! If it gets annoying I'll give it a shot.
