It requires root for nvidia-settings but fails each time I make my own autostart on systemd
You must log in or # to comment.
As soon as I get home I’ll do it. Afaik if you try to run it normally without root access it spits out errors about not being able to set the fan speed because it uses nvidia-settings as a dependancy. Also failed to mention this is a Wayland script, not xorg
