From b48cb6b0ec1320ad25fd2c0a1b5118dbe2536060 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Ser Date: Sun, 17 Oct 2021 21:18:24 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Remove --my-next-gpu-wont-be-nvidia Nvidia has historically been a bad actor in the open-source graphics ecosystem because they required a special EGLStreams code-path instead of exposing the de-facto standard GBM API. However, with their upcoming release they now support GBM as well. This is a push in the right direction for Nvidia, so there's no reason we should be more hostile to them than to any other proprietary driver. Let's remove the --my-next-gpu-wont-be-nvidia flag, and advise users to use --unsupported-gpu now. Note, proprietary Nvidia drivers are still unsupported by the Sway project (just like all other proprietary drivers). --- sway/main.c | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/sway/main.c b/sway/main.c index e960c4e2..264fa847 100644 --- a/sway/main.c +++ b/sway/main.c @@ -63,7 +63,7 @@ void detect_proprietary(int allow_unsupported_gpu) { sway_log(SWAY_ERROR, "Proprietary Nvidia drivers are NOT supported.
