|
|
Today, because X was giving me a hassle with the latest KDE/Plasma (everytime I disconnect my power supply from my laptop, the screen configuration would become wrong and difficult to fix), I decided to try Wayland. It is running now.
Daytime color adjustment doesn't work, but that's not that big of a deal.
I noticed I can't turn off the compositor which I think is ignorant.
But those are minor complaints because the performance seems to be pretty good. I'll let you know when I fire up my windows VM which was really clunky under X.
There is one problem: the cursor flickers badly when I move it. It works just fine, it's just that a ghost of it appears often to the left of where the actual cursor is and sometimes hangs around a few milliseconds.
Is there a guide or does anyone have any suggestions on how to get Wayland to be as stable as possible?
I'm using the NVidia Blob, is that okay? (x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-510.68.02)
Should I use the unstable 515 driver?
Thanks much. _________________ Some day there will only be free software. |

Nevermind. x2goclient doesn't work so wayland is a no go for me.
It is looking better though. It gives me hope for the future. _________________ Some day there will only be free software. |

For daytime color adjustment you can use wlsunset, it's not in the official repos btw but you can find it in overlays. |
