Accelerated rendering on this combination remains completely unsupported, though KWin 5.12 will support a software-only fallback and should thus at least run on that driver: https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2017/10/plasmawayland-and-nvidia-2017-edition/ I don't see this changing any time soon because both sides are insisting on their idea of how the interaction should work and refusing to implement the other side's API of choice. I can also fully understand KWin's refusal to implement the EGLStreams API, which no other driver uses and which is only supported by GNOME Shell / Mutter at this time (only because the Red Hat Desktop Team is bending over backwards to NVidia). See also the position of the Sway developer, who is even less diplomatic than the KWin one: http://sircmpwn.github.io/2017/10/26/Fuck-you-nvidia.html Kevin Kofler _______________________________________________ kde mailing list -- kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kde-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
