Flickering Nvidia Weirdness

HI All,

Attached a video which will hopfully display correctly. I am wondering if the video shows the behaviour your would expect to happen with nvidia+wayland.

I installed the ISO for nvidia desktop pc. Some info below:

Operating System: Bazzite 40
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.1.0
Qt Version: 6.7.0
Kernel Version: 6.8.7-303.fsync.fc40.x86_64 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 20 × 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-12700K
Memory: 31.0 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti/PCIe/SSE2
Manufacturer: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.
Product Name: MS-7D32
System Version: 1.0
Solution
Yup that's a known issue. Log out and switch your session to X11. It's a dropdown on the login screen in the bottom left hand corner. The options are "Plasma" or "Plasma (X11)" go for the second one. Log in again and see if your issues are gone. Nvidia and Wayland don't like each other at the moment.
