What is the current situation with something like OBS screen capturing over Pipewire under Wayland?

[shmerl]

Looking forward to adaptive sync support in KWin or KWinFT and then I'm switching to the Wayland session.

As a next step after that - please...

[shmerl]

I don't think it will fully fix their problem. Those kernel issues weren't resolved because they are about GPL. Unless Nvidia will come up with some even...

[shmerl]

If I remember correctly, Nvidia can't support DMA-BUF due to GPL "symbol poisoning" that their blob would cause if they do. So not sure if this...

[shmerl]

So now they won't need GBM and EGLstreams anymore?

[shmerl]

Well, I don't worry about i386 hardware, but I'd prefer i386 (i686 more precisely) multiarch to continue, because many old games are 32-bit and losing...

The title is a bit misleading. Formally would mean that Apple stopped being a jerk and started supporting Vulkan.

[shmerl]

Vulkan is definitely the future, so I wouldn't worry about old devices in the sense of "let's not support Vulkan because of that"....

[shmerl]

Sounds good, but what about collaborating with KWinFT? Will that ever happen or the two projects completely diverged?

[shmerl]

Nothing wrong with trying to reverse engineer things for fun, but I agree that chasing after Apple in this case is probably a waste of time if you expect...

[shmerl]

I think the reason is simple - they don't care about anything but collecting patent fees. Open specification doesn't bring them any money, so they don't...

[shmerl]

I wouldn't expect anything good from HDMI cartel. They only exist to collect patents. Everyone would have been using DisplayPort already, if not for the...

[shmerl]

So are Linux developers planning to fix schedutil to avoid this?

[shmerl]

I have 5700 XT, so some of that might be Navi specific.

[shmerl]

There is a nasty regression in amdgpu in 5.10.4 that bugs resume from suspend (monitor doesn't turn on) and monitor not waking up from sleep mode (DisplayPort)....

[shmerl]

Just tired - it got a lot better, I don't see that glitch in Kmail anymore! Thanks for prompting to test it again.

Now the only major feature...

[shmerl]

Last time I tried, Kmail was still buggy after that fix so I stayed on X11 session. Let me try again with the very recent plasma....

[shmerl]

There is KwinFT project, but I hope KDE developers will come to some terms how to cooperate on it, instead of just forking it forever....

Looking forward to production ready fix for subsurfaces clipping bug.

[shmerl]

How is the subsurfaces clipping bug? I gave up on them ever fixing it.
