With 535.86.05 driver on Fedora 38 hardware EGL is not working on Wayland and EGL falls back to software:
$ eglinfo

Readme mentions that EGL_EXT_platform_x11 is unsupported. Is falling back to software rendering the manifestation of that? Or is it a separate problem? Thanks.

Under XWayland, due to software rendering, the scene is rendered at around 23-24 FPS. Under native X11, with VSync turned off (with F7), I am getting around 350 FPS with my 2070.

Indeed it is. For what it’s worth, this feature is being actively worked on right now.

This seems to be fixed in 545.29.02, is this expected?
same problem with NVIDIA-SMI 560.35.03
is it normal? shouldnt’t be fixed with those new versions?

libEGL warning: egl: failed to create dri2 screen
With 555 driver failure to create dri2 screen is normal. With 560 there is no failure to create dri screen, but at least bgfx examples crash:

As of 565.77, EGL_EXT_platform_x11 not being supported is no longer mentioned in the readme. The bgfx examples still crash when trying to run EGL rendering backend on XWayland though. Is this supposed to be working now?
