Hu? Your APT tells, that you have the 580 installed but GUI tells you have nouveau installed? 😮
Btw. The (open) means that nvidia has made parts of the driver open source

12·1 day agoYess!
I store the keepass vault on my nextcloud
On iOS and macOS, I use Strongbox pro (one time purchase), as it integrates beautifully into the apple ecosystem using its APIs.
On linux and windows free KeepassXC with browser plug-ins
On Android I use the free keePassDX which, like strongbox, uses the android APIs for passwords
I see 😇 you are already using latest proprietary nvidia drivers, if I read that correctly and you have nvidia-utils, which enables you to use Vulkan
Anyway, on mint, one uses the GUI tool driver-manager to switch (nvidia)drivers:
What distro do you use, generally, there is a relatively easy way to switch to the nvidia proprietary ones, or what is “regular”in your case?
Last time I switched nvidia drivers after initial installation, I had to uninstall (lib32-)vulkan-nouveau (32bit and 64bit) and install (lib32-)nvidia-utils manually, but I guess, that may distro specific.
I think there are some that only install FOSS during initial installation
Well, no, not at all. Nvida works on wayland on any distro, but it just works on some distros.
It just works means no user config required.

Technology@lemmy.world•What Your Bluetooth Devices Reveal About You: Building Bluehood, a Bluetooth scanner that reveals what information we leak just by having Bluetooth enabled on our devices.English
49·2 days agoTldr: Bluetooth isn’t entirely the problem. The problem is manufacturers who don’t add privacy features like rotating identifiers into their Bluetooth enabled devices. Many smartphones are doing this these days.
E.g. modern non-cheap devices (iphone, pixel, general higher level android, airpods, apple watches, other modern headphones etc.) have those, and are not really track able like this.
Nothing to worry about 😇 drivers that work great with 3070 will work great with a 5060
For those cases I love endeavourOS, as it configures exactly these (in my opinion PITA) cases automatically “correctly”
Jo, no problem! Just use the proprietary drivers and vulcan, cuda etc. Just works
Especially with a recent card, like a 4060. Problematic are only the cards which are considered legacy by nvidia (I think older than the GTX 900 series), because they do not update their drivers for newer kernels. In these cases resorting to nouveau (in-kernel driver for nvidia cards) is your best bet, but you will not use the card’s full potential.
Edit: One can of course use proprietary drivers with legacy cards if you use a distro in a legacy kernel. But having old kernel then comes with less compatibility to other devices, as backports generally take their time.
It has no issues, NVIDIA just works these days (if you use a distro where you can choose to use proprietary drivers for it during installation)

2·6 days agoI have good experience with matrix-synapse 😄 together with the bridges for proprietary services, your matrix client could be the ultimate chat app
And some even support sync of group chats through puppeting (may not be TOS compliant on some services)


I opened it on mobile and got only one Download i never did. Is this because my provider rotated IP addresses and someone torrented a sample pack using cellular network
