"Default" notification manager (X11)

I'm running a relatively lightweight system (X11, LightDM, I3, quickshell [no other bar]) . I don't have Dunst installed nor any other notification manager that I see in my config, yet when I type - >notify-send "test" "test" I get a small notification window popup (top right), white background with said notification.

I'm wanting to build a notification manager with quickshell, however this "built in" one seems to be getting in the way preventing the quickshell one from getting involved.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Looking for a btop/htop type app

Anyone know of a btop or htop type app that will actually display the Nvidia GPU usage ?

I have the Nvidia driver (config.boot.kernelPackages.nvidiaPackages.legancy_580) loaded and it's seen and used by Lightworks, Davinci Resolve, Blender, etc., however btop nor htop seems to pick it up. Everything, app wise, is working, sees and uses the GPU and "nvidia-smi" sees it and will show usage.

Not anywhere close to a deal breaker however it would be nice if there were an overall status app, such as btop/htop, that would correctly display the GPU usage

Thanks

How to install the Nvidia gpu driver

I have a GTX 1050TI GPU in the desktop.

Following the example here -> https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/NVIDIA#Configuring

"

  # Last version that supports Maxwell to Volta GPUs
  hardware.nvidia.package = config.boot.kernelPackages.nvidiaPackages.legacy_580;  # Last version that supports Maxwell to Volta GPUs
  hardware.nvidia.package = config.boot.kernelPackages.nvidiaPackages.legacy_580;"

I have this in my configuration.nix file ->
hardware.nvidia.package =config.boot.kernalPackages.nvidiaPackages.legacy_595;

When I run nixos-rebuild switch, I get this error ->
  error: attribute 'kernalPackages' missing
       at /etc/nixos/configuration.nix:21:28:
           20|
           21|   hardware.nvidia.package =config.boot.kernalPackages.nvidiaPackages.legacy_595;
             |                            ^
           22|
       Did you mean kernelPackages?
Command 'nix-build '<nixpkgs/nixos>' --attr config.system.build.toplevel --no-out-link' returned non-zero exit status 1.

Any help what I'm doing wrong in my stupidity ?

Thanks

Problem with appimages

Trying to run an appimage file (Linux) that works on every other Linux distro that I've used.

I get this error:

red@guix ~/Downloads/MLVApp$ ./MLVApp.v1.16.Linux.x86_64.AppImage

/tmp/.mount_MLVApplAFkOe/AppRun: line 12: /tmp/.mount_MLVApplAFkOe/AppRun.wrapped: cannot execute: required file not found

It doesn't say WHAT find is not found.

Any ideas/help ?

Thanks
