Wish me luck. I’m a little unsure if it’ll work well. I have an ancient GPU (Nvidia GTX 970) and hope it’ll be compatable.
Processor AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Six-Core (12 CPUs) Processor 3.20 GHz
Installed RAM 32.0 GB
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (4 GB) (actually 3.5GB due to hardware defect)
BaseBoard Manufacturer ASRock
BaseBoard Product AB350 Pro4
This system is getting old; nearly a decade here. Pretty soon I have to start thinking about upgrading. At a minimum, I should try and upgrade the video card when I can.


Wouldn’t the other main difference be your t490 isn’t running nvidia?
Well, yes, that’s a pretty huge difference. It’s fine, I’m ditching these cards after chatting with people here and upgrading to the current low end AMD card.
Try running journalctl -b --grep “wayland” and see if anything interesting comes up… Doubt I can help you actually solve this though. It could also be a KDE bug with Nvidia.
