Hey all,
I just did a fresh install of Garuda on a laptop. Problem is, the taskbar’s (bottom panel) background is completely transparent. It does not have any sort of background whatsover. I tried switching around the panel’s opacity settings but nothing helps.

For reference this is how it looks on my daily driver (how it should look like):
I am also having scaling issues but thats for another topic. Thank you so much.
