Explicit sync Wayland protocol has finally been merged!
gitlab.freedesktop.org
Since nvidia drivers do not properly implement implicit sync, this protocol not existing is the root cause of flickering with nvidia graphics on Wayland. This MR being merged means that Wayland might finally be usable with nvidia graphics with the next driver release.
EDIT: Nvidia dev posted that support is planned in the 555 driver, with beta release planned for May 15: https://github.com/NVIDIA/egl-wayland/pull/104#issuecomment-2010292221

Rather, I bought from the vendor who contributed their GPU drivers to the Linux Kernel. It just so happened that's AMD.
NVIDIA sycophants hate that one weird trick.
Honestly... I don't really have anything against Nvidia, but I do. It's really a good company, but it sucks.
Those are my lines :D
Nvidia sycophants just call you an idiot for wasting your time on linux. :/
Lol, down votes from chumps who can't tell the difference between NVIDIA's excellent hardware and Nvidia's shitty business practice.
