So I was tinkering around and when I was in my log in screen I noticed that I have plasma X11 as well as wayland which is what I’ve been using but I also saw where I had 4 versions of gnome. I have Gnome, Gnome on Wayland, Gnome(Wayland), and Gnome(Xorg). I went in Gnome xorg and was tweaking things and added extensions with compiz and all that fun stuff. Then I made the dreadful mistake of switching to Gnome(wayland) and after I was configuring my dock to panel settings, the screen went black and I had to force a shut down to get out of it because it wouldn’t let me log out as there was nothing on the screen. That’s pretty cool that I can use Gnome even though my set up is KDE but now I need to figure out how to fix it and I’m not 100% sure where to start on that.
