well, it is listed on github

So both of those questions are already answered and the new questions are "why does this known issue with a known fix happen and is a permanent fix in the works or at least known to be possible?"

known fix? Do you mean just not using desktop mode?

@Kyle Gospo how recently was the experimental XWayland explicit sync patch removed? I'm still getting flickering/rubberbanding in Warframe on the latest version, so I'm stuck using the 01/26 image and I'd like to track down why, if I can

Kyle Gospo•2/12/24, 4:45 PM

around that date

ChaiQiOP•2/12/24, 4:45 PM

Ah, that might be it then

Kyle Gospo•2/12/24, 4:45 PM

we had to pull the xwayland patch for breaking gamecope

ChaiQiOP•2/12/24, 4:45 PM

Ahh

ChaiQiOP•2/12/24, 4:46 PM

Would it be possible to put it back in to just the Nvidia images, since gamescope doesn't work on them anyway?

Kyle Gospo•2/12/24, 4:48 PM

I can look into that

ChaiQiOP•2/12/24, 4:48 PM

Much appreciated. I'll be happy to test changes

ChaiQiOP•2/12/24, 4:49 PM

Another thought: how exactly do the Nvidia images default to X11? I recall you mentioning that they have for a while, and I've been having issues with not being able to boot/log into a Wayland session

ChaiQiOP•2/12/24, 4:50 PM

I actually have more issues with X11 despite having a Nvidia GPU, surprisingly

Kyle Gospo•2/12/24, 4:50 PM

change the SDDM config to use X11 by default

Kyle Gospo•2/12/24, 4:50 PM

that's it

ChaiQiOP•2/12/24, 4:50 PM

Ah, and on Gnome/GDM?

KKyle Gospo The bug is specifically a crash with switching between desktop and game mode

Gotcha, good to know. I don't know much about how it works so this may sound like total nonsense, but: It seems like the Wayland session crashes, then takes an arbitrary and random amount of time to restart in the background before I can try logging into one again. Is there a command to start/restart it, or even a way to disable X11 in GDM?

TheEtherNetBoyz•2/12/24, 5:14 PM

any issues with the newest update? or should I go ahead and wait

Kyle Gospo•2/12/24, 5:14 PM

You can wipe out /etc/sddm.conf

Kyle Gospo•2/12/24, 5:15 PM

that's all we're doing

Kyle Gospo•2/12/24, 5:15 PM

For disabling X11 in GDM you'd likely need to remove the X11 packages for GNOME

antheas•2/12/24, 5:26 PM

@Kyle Gospo with unified refresh rate disabled, if the viariable export STEAM_DISPLAY_REFRESH_LIMITS=73,144export STEAM_DISPLAY_REFRESH_LIMITS=73,144 is defined, it enables the refresh rate slider in steam

antheas•2/12/24, 5:26 PM

and breaks the legion go display

antheas•2/12/24, 5:26 PM

undefine it. Unified slider still works.

antheas•2/12/24, 5:26 PM

I have always had it commented out, so i didnt notice it

let me try to pr for it for the clout lmao
