Fixes the Fan threshold card appearing over and over on the Console tab.

  • The Console tab no longer fills up with copies of the Fan threshold
    card.
    Introduced in 5.13.0: the card kept its own copy of the console's
    address as its identity, and the new System time card was given the same
    one — so the app could no longer tell the two apart and added a fresh copy
    of the card on every five-second sensor refresh. The longer the tab stayed
    open, the more copies appeared. Both cards now have distinct identities,
    and a test fails the build if any two cards on a screen are ever given the
    same one again. Thanks to the reporter who spotted it the day 5.13.0 went
    out.

  • The Linux white-screen fix now adapts to your graphics setup. The app
    detects what it is running on and applies only the workarounds that stack
    needs: every Linux session gets the DMABUF renderer disabled, and NVIDIA on
    Wayland additionally gets accelerated compositing disabled and — when
    launched through PS5Upload.sh — your system's libwayland-client
    preloaded. Previously only the first of those was applied, so NVIDIA
    Wayland users still got a white window and had to find the other two
    themselves. The extra switches stay off everywhere else on purpose: they
    cost scrolling smoothness, which this app's long lists feel. If detection
    misses your setup, PS5UPLOAD_FORCE_WAYLAND_PRELOAD=1 forces it, and
    setting any of the variables yourself still overrides the app. Thanks to
    the reporter of issue #285. See the FAQ entry "white/blank screen" for the
    full table.

  • Don't launch the Linux build with sudo — it is never needed, and it
    leaves root-owned files in ~/.ps5upload that make later normal launches
    fail in confusing ways. The FAQ now says so, with the one-line fix if you
    have already done it.
