Nvidia Linux Wayland

Added support for the following egl extensions.

Nvidia linux wayland. This sdk pdk supports wayland and weston. Wayland is a communication protocol that specifies the communication between a display server and its clients as well as a c library implementation of that protocol. I am pretty sure that at least for the geforce gtx 550 ti running the driver version 390 132 wayland does not work at all. Somebody1121 why can t be done in the nvidia or wayland side.

It is also a c library implementation of that protocol. A display server using the wayland protocol is called a wayland compositor because it additionally performs the task of a compositing window manager. Weston is the reference implementation of the wayland compositor. Wayland is a protocol that a backend compositor uses to communicate with its clients.

Egl ext platform wayland to enable wayland applications to run on nvidia s egl implementation egl wl bind wayland display to enable wayland compositors to run on nvidia s egl. Mesa has enough dealing with hardware and game bugs to increase the maintenance burden with the proprietary drivers please in nvidia would be laughing at your comment. Added a new kernel module nvidia drm ko which registers as a drm driver with both prime and drm kms support. I have already tried all manner of wayland types weston 7 0 0 gnome wayland 3 34 kwayland 5 65 0 plasma 5 17 and the results are consistently the same.

Wayland is developed by a group of volunteers initially led by kristian. Check the release notes for specific versions supported.
