I’m not defending Nvidia, but my Nvidia laptop works prefectly fine with Wayland. And then I wanted to play games so I bought an egpu enclosure and put 1080ti in there and it worked prefectly fine OOB. Then I wanted to upgrade so I put 7900xtx in there and no driver, version, config or voodoo allowed me to use it.
Not to mention VERY limited compatibility with ML libraries.
So, I don’t really understand this, but., why use Wayland? All I ever read about with it is problems about compatibility and functionality. I don’t understand what the benefits are. Or what it does that do different than x
Personally its been snapper with transitions, supports independent display scaling, waydroid, and hopefully soon easy to use compositor handoffs - which would be a game changer
Using Gnome and it’s just not giving me the choice. I think my driver is to old. Found this
Note: NVIDIA drivers prior to version 470 (e.g. nvidia-390xx-dkmsAUR) do not support hardware accelerated Xwayland, causing non-Wayland-native applications to suffer from poor performance in Wayland sessions.
I’m using Nvidia with Wayland without any issues. What’s the problem exactly?
I think, Nvidia
