2 days agoWayland and nvidia dont mix. They are going to have a shit time, because some don’t have “non-free” enabled and require editing configuration files. Fresh Mint broke or couldn’t install the “newest” drivers on my friends computer, because of kernel version I assume. After that mess, the games lagged like crazy. Even worse on Wayland.
Installed Endeavour for my friend, because CBA setting up debian and “it just works”. Arch as the first Linux though… What a mess.
Well, for X11 you either take input lag or horrible screen tearing, worse FPS even if you configure. Wayland just works, but on nvidia you have to do configuration and the information on “where and what exactly” is obscure as hell to a new user. Mint and Endeavour both put the configs automatically in modprobe.d, but distros like Debian don’t.
