I expected more than that. After waiting more than two years I am disappointed to hear it.

I don't think that VFX indurstry will transition to Wayland so quickly. Especially since Wayland does not support GPU accelerated remote sessions for VFX artists - via Terradici, Zmesh central, or NiceDCV...

Maybe one day Wayland will be ready for that.

I dont have an expectation for vfx industry in general. Autodesk Maya and Blender are already works on wayland so I don`t get why Hou doesn`t.

Houdini may or may not work under Wayland. All of our test machines are configured to use X.

Houdini with Linux and Wayland Dec. 3, 2024, 8:01 a.m.

I am on Fedora 41 KDE plasma . Houdini on Wayland crashes non stop. Also I couldn`t manage to configure my wacom tablet pen buttons. I just want to switch right click with left click . So now I go back to X11 then Houdini is ok and I can switch wacom pen buttons.

Now I have dual monitor issues. My laptop is 1080p and my second monitor is 4K. Dual monitor resolution setup doesn`t work and it is annoying. But I think it is the lesser evil and it is easier to manage so I stayed on X11 for now.
