That’s all right, thanks! It seems that it does do something indeed, I had to run with debug information and it was simply taking a long time to configure itself
NP_DEBUG=2 ./nix-portable nix-shell -p hello
The only issue is I downloaded a binary package which is dated early 2022 and it uses nix 2.5.1. I need to figure out how to force it to use the latest version of nix.
Plasma works really flawless on Tumbleweed for me. I never tried Fedora, but OpenSUSE is a lot better than Ubuntu for me. Less bugs and you always get the latest versions. NVIDIA driver is really easy to install: there are official repositories, they are updated just like any package. I think among the traditional distributions Tumbleweed is the best one.
