While we wait to see what comes of the new X.Org Server Git branch plans and a possible X.Org Server 26.1 release, several X.Org libraries saw new point releases this weekend. These seldom-updated libraries saw new releases to ship various build fixes and other minor improvements.
Alan Coopersmith of Oracle’s Solaris team and long-time X.Org release wrangler spent a lot of time this weekend shipping new upstream X.Org library updates
FYI : KDE can’t force you to use Wayland, you can just change from wayland to X11 on login.
As long as you’re running a version that ships an X11 session, yes, but from KDE 6.8 onwards there will be no KDE X11 session anymore and thus, no KDE X11 option available to select on the login screen.
Why are they doing this when Wayland sucks on 60% of graphics cards? Right when we’re catching Microsoft in a vulnerable state and more people are fleeing to Linux than ever?
Wayland does not suck on 60% of graphics cards. No need to spread misinformation
Maybe because it doesn’t suck anymore on 60% of graphics cards?
I have been dealing with Wayland Issues on my Nvidia card, so yeah, they still suck.
Ah, if it’s not working right for you, it obviously means it’s not working right for 60% of people.
What’s that? The situation has improved dramatically over the last two years, and many happily use Nvidia cards with Wayland without issues, me included? No, can’t be the case, you still have issues.
They are probably running a system full of “workaround” environment variables that are not needed anymore or something like that, and seeing issues because of it.
I’ve also had a flawless experience with Nvidia & Wayland recently.
Either that, or it’s Debian with its ancient drivers and libraries. Maybe even both.
