Netflix question

Just set up a new contract with free Netflix with ads. We already pay for Netflix and we want to keep it ad free. The guy on the phone said just link the accounts, but how does this work in practise?

Gnome GDM/boot/splash screen wallpaper.

Where in the file system can I find the ArchLinux wallpaper used during the boot process on Gnome? Tried to find the same one online, but no joy so far. I want to add it to grub, so that it looks the same throughout the boot process. It must been on the system, but my inner Holmes has failed me.

Edit: Solved now.

Calculator keybind

In Gnome/KDE I just hit the calculator key to bring up the window. I want the same function in Niri, but the keybind in settings won't allow me to create this. What do I do to get it working?

Cheers.

When I open Firefox it sits on top of all other open windows. I can then no longer scroll my windows to get to where I want. If I only have Firefox open and want to spawn a new window, it opens behind Firefox. I want Firefox to open maximized instead of half a window. What am I doing wrong here?

window-rule {

match app-id=r#"firefox$"# title="^Picture-in-Picture$"

match app-id="zoom"

open-floating true

match app-id=r#"firefox$"#

// This keeps the main window maximized

open-maximized true

}

Not new to Linux, but not much time spent on Debian. If I changed the kernel, what are the pros and cons of using the latest LTS rather than 6.12?

Did a fresh install of 13 last night (KDE). I've noticed that there is what is best described as a background flicker of light on moving the mouse when on wayland. If I boot into x11, it isn't there. It isn't a bright light, but it's very noticeable (even with my old, dodgy eyes).

Any idea what could be causing this?

Display and system info in pics. Dropping refresh rate to 60 makes no difference.

Cheers

I think my GPU (Radeon 6600) is starting to crack. Getting some weird things happening over the last few weeks. Serious lag in games, crashes, kernel panic once or twice. So if it does die, what do you recommend? My budget is super tight. Heard very good things about the Intel B580. Any thoughts?
