From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Anyone know how the Wayland driver in WINE will impact? I mean Wine works on XWayland so far, so what can we expect to get better with native Wayland support? I've searched a bit in web, but its hard to find some definitive answers (lots of general WINE and Wayland topics, often outdated).
Well, HDR works in Wine Wayland, and X11 can never do it without gamescope.
Do you happen to know if you still need the HDR layer when using Wayland directly? I know gamescope didn't require it for a while now but I never saw anything about it for Wine.
Yes. The Mesa implementation for this stuff isn't merged yet. Once it is merged, the layer will be irrelevant.
