Hello,
I updated my PC from Fedora 43 KDE Wayland to Fedora 44 several days ago, and since then I’ve been experiencing numerous problems due to graphics drivers. My graphics card is an Nvidia GTX 1070.
I know I had to perform a special procedure for the update because of this generation of graphics card. Since I’m not very tech-savvy, I used an AI to run the different commands, but it went wrong and I haven’t been able to find a solution.
The problems are:
I can no longer open Discover, OBS, or Discord.
Can you please help me solve this problem?
Thank you very much.
Here are some commands related to my system status, if that helps:
