    On nvidia gpu… The problem is all there.

    Nvidia isn’t putting much effort on wayland and they decided to implement teir own propietary implementation of the driver.

    I have an amd desktop pc and i can assure that wayland runs like a breeze.
    Fast, smooth, and working VRR with plasma :)

      So you are one of them that expect people like me to buy a new card to be able to run Wayland?
      I dont plan to do this since I think it is waste of money since X11 just work.

      If I should buy a new card today then I think I might stick to Nvidia since they have the more power efficient cards. And I dont care much about if I use Wayland or not

        No of course I don’t expect people to change video cards just for wayland.

        But from the way you write in your posts, you make wayland look inferior or immature, when in fact it is only a problem of nvidia users.

        To run Linux you also have to take into account the hardware to be used. And choosing nvidia for a linux system can make sense for many purposes, but you have to be aware that it brings some pretty stupid driver limitations and that limits you with wayland.

        Wayland does not suck and is more than ready to replace the default gnome and plasma sessions. Let’s just hope nvidia will wake up and seriously start improving its crappy drivers.
