I have a Lenovo 14aPH8 (Ideapad 5 gen 8?) which has a high DPI Screen with an AMD 7840HS (780m iGPU).
It's giving a bunch of memory corruption when on youtube in fullscreen, or before I reduce the resolution of a fullscreen application (Assetto Corsa Competizione is the only I've tried so far) from the native resolution to 1080p.
I previously RMA'd the Laptop due to similar artifacts on Pop!OS, and they confirmed the entire motherboard was replaced. However, the artifacts didn't go away so I tried KDE Neon which thankfully didn't have the same issues, until I tried gaming and youtube.On X11, the issues are gone, but as a fan of fractional scaling and touchscreen gestures I'm still using Wayland.
While this could be a hardware issue (I can't confirm as the laptop is so new not many people have it, let alone on linux) I'm sure this is software related because it only happens on X11, and I've also seem similar reports by nVidia users on Wayland.
Anyone able to signpost me if this isn't something KDE devs can investigate? I know a lot of them are active within the Wayland space so I thought asking here would be a good idea :)
EDIT: Looks like there's some upstream bug in the DRM with variable refresh rates and/or adaptive sync. Disabling it in KDE's settings seems to sort the problem in Youtube/games. Can't say the same for anyone else tho
I've installed Pop!OS after getting my Lenovo Ideapad Pro 5 back from the warranty repair. Supposedly they changed the motherboard (which I don't doubt, it was waiting a week for new parts apparently), but even after that I'm still getting graphical errors and bugs when moving between desktops and other window animations. I know X11 can be a bit buggy at best, so it could just be that on top of the newer SoC.

I was trying to use a flake with nix-pkg to set up a flutter dev environment but it just wouldn't stick, and a lot of the examples online are quite old and not documented well for a nix noob like myself.
Cheers folks!
So I've got a couple of services that I access using mydomain.org:1234 for example, but since Nextcloud runs its own web server it's hosted on mydomain.org/nextcloud.
How do I set up my services so I can access them from a friendly URI like Nextcloud instead of ports?
Using my touchpad seems to act as if it's a joystick - If I touch the edges it acts like I've pulled the joystick to the far edge of its movement, etc. sort of like how a steam controller's touchpads work when emulating a joystick. However, it also just acts like regular mouse input so it's only noticeable in games that detect joypad input.
This happens regardless of Steam being activated. I have used DS4 controllers on my laptop before but this happens regardless of them being connected.
Manjaro and GNOME btw. Happens on x11 and Wayland.
Any ideas?
