ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I got no notification, that my composition broke due to a misaligned device
driver. I just lost transparency of my latte dock, and got no clue, why.
In the Garuda forum
(https://forum.garudalinux.org/t/transparency-effect-for-latte/21956/14) I got
pitched about the composition settings, where an extensive and pretty
informative explanation of the case waited for me.
I would love to see a notification, including it being clickable and linking to
said settings page, in the notification widget.
There are a lot of little details listed there and such a major crash - that
doesnt solve itself by waiting or so - does get hidden away at the current
time.
Thanks a lot
