“We currently have no plans to support Xwayland”
I&#x27;ve been following the X11 vs Wayland story since very close to the beginning and have built and used wayland and weston multiple times over the years. Cutting through all the FUD on both sides, my conclusion is that Wayland was created in the context of some very specific use cases which essentially preclude it from being a general solution that can replace X by itself (it could succeed if there was a single project to reimplement X in a sane way, but leaving it to GKT and QT is NOT a solution by any stretch of the imagination). Nvidia&#x27;s engagement with linux simply does not cover the use cases that Wayland was created to address. In my view desktop&#x2F;workstation use cases are not sufficiently covered by Wayland, and that is where nvidia&#x27;s focus has been.<p>tl;dr Nvidia has no need to play in this space, anyone using X will just use X without the translation layer.
