Maintainer has been absent for some time so kernel v6.11 and v6.12 isn’t supported OOTB, to get it to work with kernel v6.11 you need to pull the fix from: !48

If I remember correctly the default sudo timeout is set to 5 minutes on Yay, you should be able to increase it to something more reasonable

Additionally you can try and force use amdgpu rather than radeon, by setting the kernel flags:

radeon.cik_support=0 radeon.si_support=0 amdgpu.cik_support=1 amdgpu.si_support=1 amdgpu.dc=1

Device initalization failed according to the Xorg logs;

1. Dump your firmware version
2. Dump your kernel version
3. Dump your kernel logs (dmesg or journalctl -k)

Question is gonna be whether they can scale their DUV process, or if they have to get to EUV (without ASML) the next couple of years

No bios update, but you most likely received both microcode updates (which is what will fix/mitigate the Intel issue, the bios is only to ensure everybody gets the microcode update) and firmware updates (from linux-firmware)

Of course non-mainlined (i.e. not in the linux kernel) firmware is a bit more iffy, luckily it’s getting slowly better with OEMs using fwupd for those scenarios

Could it be an issue with the Nvidia drivers, boot with acpi=off and then install the (proprietary) nvidia drivers and then reboot to see if it boots normally now?

Running: swaymsg for_window "[app_id=mpv] opacity 0.5"

Works as expected on my end, are you missing just executing for_window?

Note, you can also add multiple rules in the same execution, e.g.

for_window {
    [app_id=mpv] opacity 0.85
    [app_id=LibreWolf] opacity 0.85
}

Also, note that app_id of LibreWolf is capitalized in that manner. You can get that information [app_id, shell etc] by running swaymsg -t get_tree

Feel like most people still do the scripting in Bash for portability reasons, and then just run Fish as the interactive shell

Archlinux’s XZ was compromised as well.
