Why will the nvidia 555 driver fix wayland support? Im genuanly curious as to why
Why will the nvidia 555 driver fix wayland support? Im genuanly curious as to why
WI think that this article explains it nicely https://linuxiac.com/wayland-nvidia-explicit-sync-support/
RThe article says that driver 555 was meant to release on the 15th of may
ROr did I misread it
WThe beta was supposed to release on 15 May. There were a bunch of unhappy linux users lol
ROh, makes sense, but its cool that Nvidia is doing this
WYeah it actually surprising, they have always been behind for Linux for quite some time
RYeah
Hgod damn it lol
Wwhat did you do that got you blocked?
Hbe born in a wrong country most probably lol
CThat usually happens due to blacklisted VPN IPs
Hyeah no im not using a vpn, that's almost surely is the reason lol
Wis web.archive.org's way back machine also an issue? I used to use it to read articles at university. E.g. here is that article https://web.archive.org/web/20240506071158/https://linuxiac.com/wayland-nvidia-explicit-sync-support/ .
Hseems to load fine, thanks xd
frankly i only wanted to read this out of morbid curiosity, blogs like this tend to awfully misrepresent every topic they talk about it

ホ@Kyle Gospo Figured out the sudden performance drop issue, it was related to how the OS was handling custom battery charging. It was basically acting like it was disconnecting the power and switching to battery and then back to line power.
WYeah it's a little overly optimistic imo. It's makes it out that everything will be rainbows after the Nvidia 555 release.
Hyeah there are a few issues still (using 555 myself right now)
Hit's still a giant jump tho
WThat's good at least. Then there is some reason for the excitement
KEvery day I thank the moment I bought a 6800XT
Hfunnily enough native wayland apps feel a bit more awkward than xwayland apps now
Hmaybe it's because kwin 6.0 doesnt implement explicit sync but im not too sure
GFedora backports the explicit sync patches to 6.0 so it's probably not that
ZSo this is what is called "flickering"?
SExactly
Him not on fedora
Hxd
Myes
MI had the same sort of shiz
Mhad to x11 like everyone
Mcmmon 555 go to rpm fusion stable or whatever it is people talk about
Mwe neeeeeeeedddd itttt
Zwas in an hybrid gpu laptop?
Zactually i dont know if being a laptop matters
Mna desktop
MI had 3080ti and 12700k
Mnvidia gpu being the main thing there
Zim running in wayland. But never had this wild case of flickering
Hif that matters at all, ive had less flickering on my dual gpu laptop (only steam would go wild actually)
Moh right
Mneve rhad it in wayland
Mthat is norm what I would see in x11
Mgenuinly
Mit is exactly that
Hsync issues exist on both x11 and wayland, they're just more pronounced on wayland in most cases
MI also had stuff liek as you type it would display what u type along with what u had typed all at once kind of
Mso u see things kind of delete as u type
Myes on x11 u would not even think of em as sync issues
Mwithout knowing them
Mwayland it is just obvious for me
