one simple question "huh when my wayland session locks up i can't access tty like i could on x". a rabbit hole of finding out that it's not just X it's literally a fundamental shift in the kernel and there's no answers. finding that this has been discussed to death for over 10 years and nobody […]

> The proprietary NVIDIA driver (since 364.12) also implements kernel mode-setting, but it does not use the built-in kernel implementation and a fbdev driver for the high-resolution console is only present as an opt-in experimental feature (since 545.29)

yeah okay so i think that it's time to […]

> In contrast with other framebuffer drivers, uvesafb needs a userspace virtualizing daemon, called v86dAUR. It may seem foolish to emulate x86 code on a x86, but this is important if one wants to use the framebuffer code on other architectures (notably non-x86 ones).

> Rahul Rameshbabu of NVIDIA's Linux graphics driver team pointed out that there are 57 DRM drivers within the Linux kernel supporting FBDEV emulation support while only around 14 are currently supporting DRM_Panic as the new means of providing a "Blue Screen of Death" type functionality for […]

why can't the little doodad in my computer just draw on the screen why is there like a thousand different subsystems that it has to go through

speaking from experience if my software ends up crashing because it tried to malloc something (or, in the case of higher lvl languages it just tried to do a `new` and the runtime fails to allocate more memory) I'm not really gonna consider that a bug because what the fuck do you want me to do

nah i mean i don't think the devs can fix this crash that seems pretty normal to me

speaking of oom killed rip kdenlive.
