This was a issue XWayland had for years, good to see they fixed it so fast.

The whole project is finished. He’s slowly merging so the Wine main devs are not forced to review the whole project all at once and miss details in their review

How many more PRs/MRs left? And when will it be available via wine staging? I can’t wait to try Wayland gaming on Hyprland! I’ve moved everything else over to it already

you can try… to very mixed results www.youtube.com/watch?v=bg-xugXfSGM

More Wayland suppose, yes!

looking forward to trying wineland someday. got some weird cursor snapping issues on Wayland for now that need gamescope to work around on some games

Awesome. Now playing 3D games on wine wayland should work fine. The previous patches already enabled Vulkan [1], but mouselock was missing.

I can’t wait to no longer have xwayland running. Almost all apps could work natively on wayland, except Java.

neat

Alright, so what else is needed until Wine on Wayland becomes as good as Wine on Xorg? Is there a checklist, or something? What’s left until Wayland gaming is as good as, if not better than Xorg gaming?

With this last merge you can start playing already. Except for shooters, there are a few more merges left to fix the edge cases. Around 4 or 5 merge requests

Wait, so It’s actually happening? Wayland gaming will be a thing soon? Plasma 6, releasing in the first half of 2024, has ironed out all but 1 of its “Wayland showstoppers”, actively working on the last one, as well as many bugfixes. XFCE 4.20, with Wayland support, is releasing in late 2024. Cinnamon, MATE, Pantheon, and Enlightenment, have all started working on Wayland support and will likely show early stages of it in 2024. AND WINE will hopefully be fully Wayland-ready in 2024. 2024 will be the year of Wayland!!!

In a few months/years I expect gaming on linux to be more performant than windows on both nvidia and amd for about.most games. cause both nvidia and winee are taking steps to support nvidia better and I have heard that wine wayland already runs faster than wine on native X11

I’m really curious what this will do to Gamescope when it drops. Hopefully another small boost.
