KDE - kwin.sh modification:
Hi, this machine is running openSUSE Tumbleweed KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10 KDE Frameworks Verison: 5.115.0 Qt Version: 5.15.12 Kernel Version: 6.76.6-1-pae Graphics Platform: X11 Graphics Processor: i915 Having some shading issues with KDE Plasma so I created file kwin.sh in /etc/profile.d Permissions are --> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 26 FEB 29 13:54 kwin.sh I added 'QT_QUICK_BACKEND=software' in order to attempt to software render QT Quick because OpenGL backend uses complex shaders which do not fit into i915 hardware specifications. There is no luck with this modification as of yet. Is it a security issue to add 'x/execute' permission to the file? None of the other files in profile.d have execute permissions set as of now default. Any thoughts on what is going on here with this?

I have added "QT_QUICK_BACKEND=software" to /etc/environment instead and now shaders are working so far. I was mistaken to look into /etc/profile.d I believe. I will perform more testing. -Thanks
