CachyOS/KDE/Wayland/9.2.18-1 – Installing makes AMD iGPU go into software mode?

[BetaMaxHero]

Hi,

Love your software and have been using it for many years.
Running current CachyOS with KDE Plasma and Wayland and running NoMachine v9.2.18-1.

After installing NoMachine on above computer, it forces AMD Radeon 780M iGPU to use software mode?
The only method to regain hardware acceleration is to completely remove NoMachine and then reboot.

Wayland is moving fast as default for many Linux distros.
Hope you can fix the above in an update, thank you

Hi, it looks very similar to this known issue:

Can you try the workaround there? We’d also be happy to take a look at the logs to check. Follow the instructions here: https://kb.nomachine.com/DT08U00298#1.1 and send them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com. Please use the title of this topic as the subject of your email.

If the logs confirm the exact same problem, we’ll send you a fix to try.
