propietary drivers

Then it seems Nvidia's eglstream backend for KWin is crap.

[sl1pkn07]

Yes, it does.
Though it seems --interpolation doesn't work. Have to recheck with Weston and then probably report it.

nope

You can either wipe Debian from your computer or wait 5 years .

... is there no ppa-like thing that will package the latest and gratest ?

[aufkrawall]

this not include vulkan over wayland, right? (waylandvk)

Yes, it does.

[sl1pkn07]

Those improvements also make mpv Wayland work.

[ALRBP]

How do I install this on buster? Can someone provide me with a link please?

You can either compile it yourself or use the testing/sid repo when KF5.62 will come to them. None of these are guaranteed to work nor recommended.
If you want bleeding-edge software, Debian stable is not the good choice. Prefer Debian testing or a rolling-release distribution like Gentoo or Arch.

NVIDIA was indeed forced to write EGLStreams support themselves. They got their support code merged in KWin 5.16.

It's nice when I'm happy I'm wrong.

[tildearrow]

I wish devs would stop appeasing Nvidia by supporting EGL. If no one works on it Nvidia will be forced to eventually use the same backend as everyone else or work on it themselves.
