I currently have an AMD video card (6700 XT) and Wayland support is excellent. Also, multi-monitor support in Wayland works perfectly.
So what’s your experience with Nvidia’s 555 driver in Wayland? Those using it in conjunction with KDE 6.1, what’s your experience with multi-monitor VRR? I ask about VRR because I heard that multi-monitor VRR in Wayland is still problematic.
This is for my own curiosity if an Nvidia video card could be considered as an upgrade option.
I’m using 555 open with hyprland. No issues and I can finally suspend and resume, using the NVreg_PreserveVideoMemoryAllocations=1 module param after being unable to all year.
Imo stick to amd. I was like you, I thought the Nvidia card would be an upgrade and I thought the rumors of how bad Nvidia was had to be at least a little exaggerated, but honestly it’s a constant pita. Aside from the suspend issue I’ve had random minor system upgrades cause kernel panics and fry my boot more than once this year. That bug is still unresolved btw, their response time leaves much to be desired.
Having dockerized ollama just work is nice, but it’s not worth it, and they seem to be close to a working vulkan based runner for that anyway.
