Switch from gentoo to fedora recently and use wayland as the default with nvidia
Everythings works fine until i fire up some games. All the games have this weird screen flickering and screen tearing which render a black box and literally unplayable. Tried rebooting, upgrading, downgrading and no avail.
This has been an issue since NVIDIA introduced alternating frames in the 545 driver. To fix this, explicit sync was recently merged into the Wayland protocol, now all it needs is the merge into Xwayland and the new NVIDIA driver that supports it, which is rumored to be released as a beta around May 15.
Until then, you either have to game on Xorg or use the 535 driver.
Thats another reason i switch from gentoo to fedora. I do learned a lot from gentoo, but sometimes its just tiring to build everything and i just want something that works
Well, i used to be a gentoo user for 2 years or more. But after a while, it kinda bothersome to compile everything on my current pc. So i switched to fedora and its been great :D
Sorry if i didnt get your point, english is not my first langauge

I’ve been daily driving gentoo for 2 years :D
No, you’re not a Gentoo user… or Gentoo users have gone downhill in the past few years.

Neither is mine, lol 😂.
My point was, Gentoo users don’t just wanna play their games. That’s reserved to Pop_OS users 😂.
Nvidia doesn’t work well with anything
