This merge resquest has finally been merged into XWayland, which means NVIDIA users are just one beta driver release away (May 15th) from probably having a good experience on Wayland now!

      Did they worked together with X11 to the same extend they need to work together with Wayland?

        If Nvidia had worked together on Xorg, we wouldn’t have had all of those shitty Nvidia unique x11 bugs with Nvidia’s crappy proprietary drivers in the past.

          Cannot confirm any Nvidia unique X11 bugs since everything works perfectly fine since a decade or so for me – but tons of Nvidia unique Wayland bugs (same driver version and same card). I am not quite sure if Nvidia are really the bad one in this specific case.

          My whole invironment is full of stuff to make Wayland actually work with Nvidia.

          $ cat .config/labwc/environment 
          GBM_BACKEND=nvidia-drm
          __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia
          LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=nvidia
          QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland
          WLR_NO_HARDWARE_CURSORS=1
          XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=wlr
          XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland
          

          Not one single line of configuration is used for X11.
