I recently upgraded to Fedora 33, and since then I have been unable to use Openscad.
The machine is a AUS ROG GL752G with 64GB RAM, 2.2TB SSD and and nvidia GeForce GTX 965M Its running fedora 33, Gnome, with NVIDIA proprietary Drivers loaded, hence its running Xorg and not Wayland. Openscad has always run perfectly well on this rig until I upgraded to fedora 33. I have attached some screenshots and the output of lshw, has anybody seen this issue before? I have downloaded an AppImage of 2019-05 and it runs fine. _______________________________________________ OpenSCAD mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.openscad.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_lists.openscad.org ![]() ![]() ![]() |
It turns out it is the use of XOrg on F33, i found a mechanism that allows me to run Gonome wayland server with the NVIDIA proprietary driver, and now OpenScad works fine.
