I donno why devs keep glflush & not change it to glfinish. Does anyone know why ? https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/blob/master/render/gles2/pass.c?ref_type=heads#L39

Also, you should probably update the patch. The line number has changed to 39.

Yes I have tried it again. My biggest concern is flickers while using terminals. Also. I did have vulkan-validation-layers & WLR_RENDERER flag but flickers didn't seem to go away.

Screen flickering still happens for me, but only on the external monitor. I tried setting the WLR_RENDERER to 'gles2' as well. Vulcan renderer no longer works for me.

@asklow you've tried this package with the gles2 renderer? I'm running the following combination and not do experience any artifacting:

❯ pacman -Q sway wlroots-nvidia
sway 1:1.9-1
wlroots-nvidia 0.17.1-1

asklow commented on 2024-03-01 13:48 (UTC)

Yep. official sway package now requires wlroots v0.17.1. Weirdly, now this one flickers too. Have tried all versions of wlroots & sway packages & flickers on almost everything. Something's borked.

What was @MarsSeed going on about? :D

kplant commented on 2024-02-27 03:58 (UTC)

Not sure what @MarsSeed was going on about, unfortunately this is still very much a problem.

Naked wlroots-0.17.1, with sway 1.9, still exhibits this problem; only now, vulkan is also rendering artifacts. I've updated the patch to apply correctly and fix the artifacting for the gles2 renderer, the default, on nvidia.

I have created a version of this package for wlroots 0.16 to be used with compositors like sway which have not jet updated to wlroots 0.17: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wlroots0.16-nvidia

Using sway-git did NOT work for me, I got the same flickers.

MarsSeed commented on 2024-02-02 12:53 (UTC)

@asklow, thank you for your clarification.

Arch devs have created the wlroots0.16 package for legacy dependents.

I think it would be the best if you submitted a bug report for that one on Arch Linux's Gitlab.

asklow commented on 2024-02-02 12:16 (UTC)

@MarsSeed I meant the flicker exists on wlroots 0.16.0. The latest release is 0.17.1 but many compositors in archlinux still packaged to use only 0.16.0. I meant that git is more stable than 16 itself.
