For implementation in Fedora Linux 36 is scheduled Transition to use by The default GNOME session based on Wayland protocol on systems with NVIDIA proprietary drivers. The ability to select the GNOME session running on top of the traditional X server will continue to be provided as before. The change is not yet considered by the FESCO Committee (Fedora Engineering Steering Committee), which is responsible for the technical part of the Fedora Linux distribution.
is noted that in the recent release of the NVIDIA proprietary driver are implemented to provide full-fledged support for the OpenGL and Vulkan hardware device in applications X11, performed using the DDX component (Device-Dependent X) XWayland.
When using a new branch of the NVIDIA driver, the performance of OpenGL and VULKAN in X-applications running using XWayland is now almost no different from running running a regular X server.
Recall that the distribution began to offer the default GNOME session on the Wayland protocol database from Fedora 22. This session was used only when using open drivers, and during the NVIDIA proprietary drivers, only the session based on the X server could be launched. In the release of Fedora Linux 35, the situation has changed and the possibility of using Wayland with proprietary NVIDIA drivers was added as an option. In Fedora Linux 36, this option is planned to translate into default mode.
