    Ah Wayland and multi-monotor support. How are you STILL so bad after all these years?

    And Fedora 44 doesn't even let me downgrade back to X11 anymore... So now my Gnome-shell crashes out every time I either unplug my docking station or suspend my computer while multiple monitors are plugged in.

    And it worked okay until 4/12 when I did a dnf update. So some package released early April to F43 fucked it up. And even upgrading to F44, and the damn thing is still fucked.

        @JessTheUnstill I wonder what's wrong, I connect my laptop with Fedora 44 and GNOME regularly to different docks and everything worked fine so far, including a DP daisy chain setup.

          okay well that's a bonkers workaround: turn off the monitors before unplugging the dock. I hate this.

            In ADDITION, Gnome turned off middle click clipboard by default. I hate OSS devs sometimes.

              @JessTheUnstill yeah I brought up how dumb that was when it was planned like a year ago, and got told it slows adoption.

              Edit:
              Like, surely new install vs update is something package maintainers could plan for and adjust accordingly.

                @fennix I thought my upgrade broke something ... I mean I guess it did. It was just the upstream devs INTENDED breaking of my workflow.

                  @fennix I agree - I wouldn't be quite as annoyed if they changed the default on a clean install. But at least don't change the behavior on an upgrade ...

                      @Athena The trouble with Debian is shit is too stable. There's a bug in the way my notifications work in Plasma 6. It was fixed before Trixie was launched, but I'm gonna have to wait until the fourteenth Toy Story character update drops to see that fix.
                      Still better than Windows though.

                      Also I feel you on the FOSS devs, @JessTheUnstill. Too much "I know what's good for you" and not enough "go nuts, you do you" in a lot of stuff these days.

                            @JessTheUnstill this shit is so annoying for me because I use a KVM switch and I have to fuck around with cords so much to make the Linux side recognize the monitors. Things were way worse though about 2 years ago for me for driver reasons.

                              @JessTheUnstill @Athena I guess I'll stick with XFCE for a while longer then.

                              Last time I tried Wayland, I was getting about one frame per ten seconds just on the desktop.

                                @JessTheUnstill please file a bug against gnome-shell. There are so many conditions to handle for multi-monitor stuff; people have been fixing them gradually.

                                      @JessTheUnstill you can use gitlab.gnome.org and ask for how to provide useful info if you can't send core dumps. They'll probably iust require a few logs and diagnostics commands.

                                        Are you really asking how https://avp.fandom.com/wiki/Weyland_Corp is still bad?
