Quick question, if you're using the #AUR Tenacity Git package (edit: or any nightly gift package, doesn't matter), have been updated to the rebate branch by any chance? If so, what are your first thoughts? If not, be prepared for quite an update one of these days.

EDIT: nvm, it actually worked as it should and picked up the new drivers correctly.

Is there a way to reinstall an AUR kernel driver package for a newer, not-currently-running kernel?

Because as it is, this looks a little cumbersome:
- upgrade kernel but not driver
- reboot into new kernel lacking driver
- upgrade (reinstall) driver
- reboot again

Would be nice if upgrading the kernel would notice 'oh, you have some extra modules, let's get those added for the new kernel too'..

#GWE was the perfect app for #NVIDIA users on #Linux to set up fan control (and maybe even overclocking, don't remember) a la #MSI Afterburner on #Windows - too bad it hasn't yet been updated to support #Wayland desktops, hope it'll get there someday though.

Someone on the GWE repo did recommend an alternative that supposedly works just as fine and even supports NVIDIA drivers on Wayland called CoolerControl. Unlike GWE, no
#Flatpak support though but it is available in the #AUR. Might try this until GWE comes around.

I always wanted to give back and become an open source contributor, but I always struggled with dedicating time to something so altruistic.

There is a difference between solving a problem for yourself and solving it properly for everyone.

Today, I began with the smallest possible entry drug: I have become maintainer of a package script in the Arch User Repository: aur.archlinux.org/packages/pla

Two, actually.
It's not much, but it feels good.
