gpus are awesome

GPU’s are awesome. I just added gpu support to my bambu-studio distrobox and its flying! On my wayland based system the native package has never worked, (arch or bazzite), but running in a distrobox does. Outside of distrobox the 3d rendering canvas is black, no output. It used to work fine without gpu support, was snappy enough, complex models were a bit sluggish, but fine. Lately something happened and simple models bring it to its knees. It got unusable!

The print I happen to be working on is some custom designed gumdrops for a theater set. The ui is working and not lagging 30s between clicks causing clicks to happen on the wrong ui element.
