From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Guess I need an alternative to KDE and Gnome. I run Resolve and it does not work on Wayland.

Resolve is working fine for me on Bazzite KDE, on Wayland, with an Nvidia GPU. Installed via ujust install-resolve

LinuxMint's cinnamon is there

Damn I love Linux Mint. Everything looks clean and polished, a bit like elementaryOS

I run resolve with plasma wayland since at least a year. What are your talking about. Maybe via xtowayland bridge but it works just fine.

Which version of resolve? Wayland? On NVidia? Do you have a link to a discussion at the blackmagic forum for resolve and Linux?

[–] shrippen@feddit.org 1 points 1 hour ago

Current version of resolve. Running endeavouros. With nvidia. Installed it via the aur package. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/davinci-resolve-studio
