Launch Issues

It's launching properly after I fixed an issue with wofi.

Having issues with steam possibly due to my machine and hyprland config. I was using the flatpack version but it suddenly stopped working. Then switched to the nix version and it wouldn't open.

Hacks

pkill steam

# then run steam
steam

# OR

steam --reset

Exit Issues

When exiting steam it get's stuck because of the gldriverquery process, killing the process shuts steam down.

Yarn

[!note] I'm no longer using Yarn unless I absolutely have to.

Corepack

[!error] This no longer works :(

Enabling corepack aka corepack enable is very tricky in nixos. I still dont fully understand the configuration that I ended up with. Using the configuration in home-manager and running corepack prepare made everyone happy, Yarn and GIthub actions. We'll see what happens.

Backlight

Issue with brightness on upgrade.
