  • You are correct. Its just that wayland is not as cut and dry of “everyone should switch to wayland, it works 100%” because thats not true.
    Ye, my comment should have been “wayland support is experimental on some distros” and not “wayland is experimental” to be more correct but hey, if people could stop shouting at me to switch to wayland because it just works, id be happy.


  • I know a few distros have switched, and i support it 1000%!
    I know ive had a few glitches in linux mint which suggests they need to fix some stuff with cinnamon in wayland still ( and a few other apps ), hence my stance towards wayland atm. I love every piece of it but imma wait a liiiitle longer. The reason i think op’s issues came from either wayland or fedora because on debian-based distros ive had no issues on my framework 16, nor on the framework 13’s that are at the office ( ubuntu, linux mint, windows )

    Edit: just gave it another go as i recently upgraded linux mint. Keyboard layout was stuck to us so altgr didnt work. Teams window could also not be double clicked to maximize and remote desktop via remmina was acting odd, like my mouse had shifted to the right. Desktop wallpaper was also shifted. Like i said, experimental on some systems :)



  • Framework 16 with the same display and linux mint user.
    Pushed towards fedora? What? I also have no issues whatsoever with the screen or igpu of amd, so i wonder what you were using there and with what chipset.
    Ive been daily driving mine for nearly a year now ( amd chipset and igpu) and none of those issues at all…




  • And i agree that is a good thing and natural progression/evolution of tech.
    What i dont like is nvidia’s cockhold on the tech with insane prices ( for the card and power draw ) as a result. I know other cards are catching up and all that, but the difference is still huge because some methods and functions are locked to the cuda cores and nvidias tech.
    I will not be giving nvidia money in the next 7 years. We will see where they stand once i have to replace my (amd) gpu.
