Is there any issue with switching frequently between Wayland and X11? (lemdro.id)

I can't imagine there is but I'm wondering if I am missing something. I use GeForce Now and unfortunately it does not work in Plasma Wayland (issues with input redirection). Is there any problem with logging into an X11 session whenever I want to use that but using Wayland generally?

The smaller the interval of each switch between the two, our timeline folds onto itself at a faster rate. If you like this dimension, please just adapt and use Wayland. Or you'll be the harbinger of doom for us all.

Only thing stopping a permanent switch for me is that counterstrike2 is a strobe light on Wayland nvidia for me. As soon as that's all good, I'll be yeeting x11

I have a friend running Nobara, playing on Nvidia + Wayland exclusively.

@Owljfien @warmaster do you get random black screen too?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

On cs2? Yeah, it strobes a bunch then goes black, occasionally flickers back in, then I give up and go back to x11

@Owljfien can you try this and see if it fixes the problem? https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xorg-xwayland-explicit-sync-git

This fixed cs2 for me (mostly)

Ill give it a look in 2 hours when I finish work, what adaptive sync setting should I have for this? I use KDE so the options are auto, always and never. I've experimented with these settings before trying that patch

Just tried it but I think the upstream has been patched recently so this package isn't working currently
