IrcsomeBot<Anarcho Taoist> @ozbrk, My driver says x.org but nvidia is also in options with (recommended). Should I click on the nvidia?02:33
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> @Anarcho Taoist, Yes, install the NVidia drivers as they will provide a much better experience.02:34
IrcsomeBot<Anarcho Taoist> How so? Sorry, I am ignorant in thid. All I hear is nvidia is problematic. ??02:35
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> NVidia is proprietary.   But drivers work very well.02:37
IrcsomeBot<Anarcho Taoist> @DarinMiller, Is there any concerns that I need to be aware of if I switch? Thanks.02:38
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Occasionally NVidia releases a driver on less popular or older cards that have a few quirks, but still better experience than the open source driver.02:39
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> Which version Kubuntu and which NVidia card do you have?02:40
IrcsomeBot<DarinMiller> If you have a hybrid laptop (Intel and NVidia), things are a little more "adventurous".02:41
IrcsomeBot<Anarcho Taoist> @DarinMiller, I  am not sure sorry. I am away from the laptop - Dell precision 5520.03:17
IrcsomeBot<Anarcho Taoist> @DarinMiller, Bionic beaver03:17

neoncontrailsRecent convert from regular GNOME3 ubuntu and loving it so far, but one minor pain point so far...18:04
neoncontrailsComing from Guake, I installed Yakuake drop-down terminal. It works but only occupies half the width of the screen?18:04
neoncontrailsI found some themes that scale the UI elements for HiDPI screens... they do that, but they do not augment the window width. 100% width still equals 50% screen width18:05
neoncontrailsI also found some possible solutions that set the value of QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS manually, but I can't tell that these have made a difference with any of my apps18:06
neoncontrailsAny suggestions? I'm starting to run out of ideas18:06
acheronukneoncontrails: sounds like https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37706318:12
ubottuKDE bug 377063 in general "yakuake doesn't respect the display scaling when calculating the yakuake window height" [Normal,Unconfirmed]18:12
