First of all: I don't have anything against Wayland. I just wanna play Minecraft occasionally.

I am running Fedora with KDE on some HP workstation with an Nvidia 2060 FE. I am using the proprietary drivers. With the next release of Fedora (and KDE), Wayland will be the only supported Display Manager (as of my understanding). I tried switching to Wayland, but I get some weird black stuttering in Minecraft making it completely unplayable. The bad thing is that with my friends GPU, a GTX 1050, it worked just fine. On my Laptop with just the integrated Graphics too.

Have you got any tips for me? I neither want to switch the distro nor the desktop enviroment, as I'm happy with how it is. I could imagine buying a used amd gpu, but I dont really want to spend a lot of money.

For now, I am just waiting and hoping they're having it fixed in the release. ** Edit:** thanks for all the help. @Pantherina@feddit.des solution, forcing it to use xwayland made it better, but then i discovered that if I'm in fullscreen, it works perfectly fine, also without xwayland. It seems like a really dumb solution, and i'm not quite happy with it, but hey, if it works, don't touch it.

tl;dr: In fullscreen it works just fine

I'm having the exact same situation with a 2060 super particularly badly when CPU spikes but not exclusively

Full screen hasn't worked for me, but that's probably because I'm using hyprland. Forcing it to run in xwayland solved the issue for you?

It didn't really solved it,it just felt like it was a lot better.

Ah. So no solution in sight til Nvidia fixes their buggy driver then?

At least I know I'm not the only one getting this

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.
