The day is finally here. Xwayland now has the code for Explicit GPU Synchronization merged after waiting over a year for everything to be ready.

    Does this help in any way with turning VSync off in Wayland environments? I’m guessing no.

      No, that’s a different protocol, the tearing patches, already merged, but i believe we’re still waiting on some patches to the kernel to get them fully working(i think it was kernel 6.8 that had them), Nvidia’s drivers also need to add support for it, they’ve given no timeline for that so far however

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
