i just installed solus 4 gnome from scratch, not sure why, might be withdrawal sympthoms from the ubuntu-install-every-6-months days + gnome was getting a bit unstable, figured why not try a fresh install.
might i just say how much i appreciate the quality of the entire experience, it just rocks.
theres just one thing that feels wrong,after installing i was greeted with a blinking cursor - this is not the problem, i knew that would happen (rtx 2070), its just a matter of installing nvidia drivers in tty(although one might say an iso refresh is in order), the problem was that even after logging in in tty my keyboard layout that i set in the installer wasnt respected and reverted to i guess US layout. took a bit of fiddling trying to find the '-' key. luckily my password didnt contain any characters that made this an even bigger problem
