I run proprietary Nvidia drivers as well and Wayland runs so much better than Xorg now that I’m permanently coming over to Wayland. I’m extremely happy rn with Wayland

    I’ve been using NVIDIA under Wayland for a few months now and it’s been… alright? No major issues on v535 (however v545 is buggy as hell for me, Minecraft would show a black screen whenever too many pixels were updated – needless to say, I downgraded).

    However, I’d still love to swap to an AMD GPU because of better Linux support, maybe keep my current GPU for passthrough.

      545 had a regression with VRR causing black screens apparently. 550 beta supposedly fixes it

        Glad to hear that. I downgraded for the same reason so it will be nice not to have to pin old driver versions in future if it works.

        Tried 550, didn’t fix anything. The game window still blinks black.
