Wait a minute, what is the Flatpak Nvidia package? Do you need that for GPU acceleration for Flatpak apps on Nvidia? How do you even know whether GPU acceleration is working?
(I recently got a new laptop and it's the first time I have a dedicated GPU, and I have no idea how it all works. Sorry for hijacking your thread.)

If you have an Nvidia GPU, run `nvidia-smi` in your terminal and it will show with prices are engaging the GPU. For AMD any process monitor should show GPU usage for procs, or there is `radeontop` for more detailed info. I think `nvtop` now just supports all the GPUs as well, but haven't used it in a long time.
