Hey thank you! I'll give this a shot tomorrow. I think my install uses GDM, not light-dm? I have Cinnamon but not Cinnamon Wayland in my list.
But I'll try the 550 drivers for sure!
I would have stuck with 470, but modern games need the 500 drivers. I couldn't get Metaphor ReFantazio working on 470, and I couldn't get the latest Baldur's Gate 3 patch working without updating either.
470 is from 3 years ago at this point. There were going to be more problems moving forward if I didn't update.
Ok, so switching to Pop on Wayland works. I didn't mention this in my original post, but I've been running Pop on Cinnamon. So I either need to get comfortable with Pop's DE or figure out if this is a cinnamon issue.
Previously I had an issue with fullscreen games having weird lag issues on Wayland. Though... testing that out now, that seems to no longer be an issue.
After trying this for a few minutes, I really don't like how slow the dock shows itself when I hover near the bottom of the screen, and i don't like how the application bar adds visual noise to the top of the screen. To me, it makes more sense for the two bars to be united as one like in cinnamon. :/
Out of curiosity, I wonder if the crash occurs when I'm in Pop x11, or if this is a cinnamon-specific bug.
EDIT: The crash occurs on Pop's default DE on X11, and cinnamon on X11, but not Pop on Wayland.
Oh man, so Pop!_OS has a "pop shop" where it officially supports 470 and 560. 550 isn't on there so, while I could try it, I wouldn't expect it to work.
In "Software and Updates" I have options for the "NVIDIA driver metapackages" for 390, 470, and 560. 560 is currently selected. I also have the NVIDIA server driver metapackage for 535, so I could try that. It would be newer than 470 but not as current as 560.
But since the chances this would fix it are already low (and 560 drivers fixed my other issues), I'm hesitant to try unless I exhaust every other option.
Do you mean switching from x11 to wayland?

Edit: It seems important to mention this is happening only on X11 (Pop default and Cinnamon), and not on Pop!_OS on Wayland.
I updated my graphics drivers from nvidia 470 to nvidia 560 due to issues running certain games. It's fixed my gaming issue but reintroduced the problem that kept me from updating for so long.
After setting my computer to "suspend," it wakes up to this screen on all monitors. I am unable to scroll up or type further commands, my only option is to reboot the machine.
- My graphics card is: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 [GeForce GTX 1070]
- Nvidia driver version: 560.35.03
- My desktop environment is Cinnamon X11. (This does not occur on Wayland, but there is no Cinnamon Wayland.)
I can't make heads or tails of this error screen. The best I can understand is the "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is required!" line. How can I get more information? Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this? Thanks in advance.

Upgrading my graphics drivers from 470 to 560 did the trick! 560 is the latest officially supported by System76/PopOS (and is the latest option in my pop shop.)
And that fixed my issue with Baldur's Gate 3 getting stuck on the loading screen at 100%! Two problems solved for the price of one!
I had an issue before where on 560 my computer wouldn't wake from sleep mode and would just crash. I never upgraded because if that, as I sleep my computer daily. I'll have to see if that issue persists now or was patched out.
Thank you so much!
EDIT: For anyone who may know anything about the crashing-from-suspend issue, I'm asking for help here.
Trying to get the FitGirl repack to run in Lutris or Heroic. I'm running PopOS! with Nvidia 470 drivers. (Using xorg, not wayland.)
I installed the game on my Win10 partition and it runs fine, so instead of re-extracting everything I just copied over the installed game directory over to linux.
I tried running the game in lutris, but the framerate is less than 1fps, constantly. The main menu is navigable with extreme patience. I've tried running in Heroic as well. Same problems. In Heroic I'm using Wine-Wine-GE-Proton8-26, which looks like the most recent version of Wine-GE (even though there is a separate entry for "Wine-GE-Latest" with the same release date.)
Looking on Lutris' website, there isn't exactly any documentation on what dependencies I may be missing: https://lutris.net/games/metaphor-refantazio/
Checking FitGirl's repack site, the comments go on forever and no one is talking about issues running on linux. I've seen youtube videos showcasing it being playable on linux so I know it's possible.
Following this video, I installed some generic dependencies using winetricks in the game's heroic settings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbbXoqDfkY0
Though, some components are failing to install. I installed:
- d3dcompiler_43
- d3dcompiler_47
- d3dx9
- d3dx10
- d3dx11_42
- d3dx11_43
- vcrun2005
I'm having various issues installing:
- dotnet20
- dotnet48
- faudio
- vcrun2008
- vcrun2010
- vcrun2012
- vcrun2013
- vcrun2015
- quartz
Though, I don't even know if I need any of those things. I'm just trying common solutions and hoping one works. The game is launching it's just playing really slowly, so a dependency might not be the problem.
Does anyone have any idea why the game is playing so slowly?
EDIT: Issue solved by upgrade Nvidia graphics drivers from 470 to 560!
Who is this wise sage, Devo? Are they internet search, wait the 80's band with the construction helmets?
Whip it? Whip it good??
Usually, yes.
I can attest that not/postponing having kids drastically reduces the number of responsibilities. Many of my friends had kids younger and are in drastically different scenarios than I am.
They probably have some "dirt" on Kamala and they're waiting until the last minute to release it, so they can "but her emails" again.
Man, I never figured out the root word for today's featured panagram. Oof.

For me personally, any game in the Super Smash Bros series.
They've always been a go-to when hanging out with friends, in their time.
Melee still has a following. Nobody likes brawl because of tripping (among other things i'm sure), but I learned how to mod brawl and added so many custom stages and character skins. Sm4sh was ok, and Ultimate is so complete.
Yeah it's Nintendo and "it's always moral to pirate Nintendo games" and there's plenty to complain about their online services but I've played smash so much that every time a new game comes out immediately a must-buy.
Great game! (Also happy cake day)
You either put on these glasses, or start eating that trash can!
Don't let them pee on your Cheerios. Purple is a color, just like magenta, pink, cyan, brown, and all the other "not in the rainbow/ROYGBIV" colors.
Gatekeeping colors, I tell ya. Don't let 'em get you burnt sienna with rage.
Where are you guys finding you Deezer ARLs for Deemix etc.?
The megathread post here hasn't been updated in a while. The last ARL expired Sept. 10th. That page does link to a telegram post, but it's also expired.
I don't have telegram, but by incrementing the last few numbers in the URL I was able to find a more recent ARL, but this is a hit-or-miss technique.
I was thinking about getting a telegram acct to follow Firehawk, however telegram works, but I is there a simpler way? I know of YAMS and Lucida, but Deemix is really nice.
Many users here speak the joys of soulseek, but I'm under the impression Deezer would have a higher base-standard for quality.
EDIT: Solved, thanks to this comment. The ARLs list isn't in numerical order. You can search for 2025 (or 2099 even) and find some ARLs that are still active. Thanks everyone!
One of the wallpapers has XFCE on it, but I didn't change my desktop environment. Also of note, when I open the terminal it doesn't look the same as it used to. Instead of the dark purple window it's a black window with white text and the window's icon is a red "X" with a dark blue "T" on it.
This is a headless machine and I connect to it through remote-desktop.
If I go through the applications menu (manually clicking, the super key does nothing and my keyboard does not have a "Fn" key) and go to settings I get the window on the left. Changing the settings in this window does nothing. Right clicking the desktop and clicking "desktop settings" I get the window on the right. This window correctly changes the wallpaper.
When I open the home folder I get Thunar.
My guess is there are two desktop environments competing or something right now? How can I fix this?
Also, weirdly, if I click my name in the upper right I can "lock screen" and "log out..." but I can't "switch user," "suspend," or "shut down."
Thank you in advance for any help.
