Does X11 still limit max FPS to the lowest of all monitors? (biglemmowski.win)

Title, I can't switch to Wayland because of nVidia (and because I love Awesome WM).

Why can't you have Wayland with Nvidia?

When I tried Wayland on Gnome using my RTX3080 it either wouldn't load into desktop or if I did it would lead to a bunch of visual glitches.

Haven't tried it through KDE yet tho as it requires some backend hackery to even allow you enable Wayland with an Nvidia card.

Edit: So some people have been able to get Wayland working on Nvidia fine so it's worth trying out yourself, Tho I've personally not had any luck.

Kubuntu 23.04 comes with wayland preinstalled and it works with my Nvidia card

Yeah Wayland support apparently doesn't come shipped with the KDE install on EndeavourOS, Last time to tried to get it running was on an older version of Ubuntu a few months back.

I'll install it and try it out now tho thanks.

Good to know this... I've been messing around with arch, and endeavor. I noticed it defaults to xorg.

@HouseWolf @tostiman Wayland on EndeavourOS with KDE is so easy: just install plasma Wayland session, log out and select Wayland as login option...
