Harvey Hi @Harvey I am posting inxi -G reports for both the patched X11 output and the flickering Wayland output. It looks to my untutored eye as if both are using the same Xorg server but on one there is a one missing from the version number. Is this by flaw or design? Would be so good if the fix could be just modifying a typo :-)
