Great, I just updated to Windows 11 in hope of getting WSL2 + Arch Linux + CUDA + Docker but it didn't pan out in the end, had to move back to proper Linux for that piece of work. But seems I'm stuck with Windows 11 now and additionally, the running applications that show up in the taskbar suddenly can only show icons, no text allowed.
I started to regret my decision to upgrade, and this just adds insult to injury.
My work pc was nagging me to upgrade so I did, after about 20 minutes I realized the productivity loss wasn’t worth whatever supposed benefits IT would see from having everyone on one OS so I rolled back. And thankfully bec it’s not domain joined, just MDMd I can pause updates and block windows11 from ever coming down.
Were you not able to use WSL2+CUDA+Docker on Win10?
I'm currently using that setup and it does use the 2080Ti in this machine and I'm able to run SBERT inferences in a docker container at blisteringly fast speeds now.
Nope, no matter what I tried, I couldn't get it to work. That docker (or anything else for that matter) didn't output any errors when starting a container just made the whole thing difficult to troubleshoot as well. When specifying `--gpus=all` the container just refused to start and docker daemon would hang from there, until I forcefully killed it.
I also had the feeling that even if I fixed this issue, that wouldn't be the last of it, so I just went back to where I came from where I can easily troubleshoot issues and understand all the moving pieces. I guess WSL2 is a bit too much magic for my old brain.
For the record, I tried to use Arch Linux in WSL2 with a RTX 3090ti
Didn’t applications used to be able to show their titles in the taskbar under W11 if you change the taskbar settings? Did that go away, or am I imagining that ability?
It was never in Windows 11. Because the Start/taskbar are repurposed from twice failed Windows 10x. An os that initially was made for a portable small dual screen device with each screen dedicated to a single open application.
