Houdini on Wayland Linux May 11, 2024, 4:51 p.m.

I installed Hou Apprentice, Nuke and mari non commercial and blender . It is for learning and testing purpose. I have a laptop so Fedora 40 seemed easiest solution. I will switch to rocky when I get a desktop.

Thanks a lot. Actually I had read vfx platform 2022 report before but I was expecting a roadmap for wayland. And after watching and reading vfxplatform sources I understand that Rhel base distros with X11 are still the prefered distros. For wayland update I will wait another year to ask again.

Fedora KDE spin removed X11 by default but other spins have X11 . You choose at the login screen. If you want a stable release you can try Rock Linux or Alma Linux. And for me Alma community looks more friendly than Rocky community. For nvidia driver I use rpmfusion one. I dont have any graphics card related problem. X11 fractional scaling is bad and also I would like to have HDR support too. But on the other hand I had problem with wacom driver with wayland. Wayland is promising but it has been 8 years since Fedora made wayland default. And I dont think that there is any development for x11. So wayland is the only way . I am sure sesi people have much better explanation and insight about this . I just want to know what they think.
