Hmm.. upgraded my #Fedora39 to #Fedora40 on my main PC with a #Nvidia 3050 GPU.
Note: Running with KDE Plasma 6.
However both #Chrome and #Vivaldi browsers are both flickering like mad !
I cleared the GPUCache folders. No change.
I've re-installed both #Chrome and #Vivaldi but the flickering continues.
I've tried turning off Hardware Acceleration in both browsers..
I've tried running
sudo depmod -a
and rebooting but that didn't fix it.
Any thoughts/ideas?

BBC Homepage.
Is this a reflection of the BBC Editors or what people in the UK are interested in.
Or more likely both.
Am I the only one that finds it all a bit fucking sad IMHO?

Decided to try #LineageOS on my old OnePlus5T
The phone no longer gets updates from #OnePlus and I don't use it much so thought it would be a good device to try it on being my first custom rom since the old #CyanogenMod days.
Installation was a little tricky on #Linux / #Fedora but if you follow the instructions carefully it worked first time. (Docs could be improved a little)
Phone feels fresh and snappier.
Very impressed.
Not sure I'm brave enough just yet to try it on my daily driver !
