High end OLED (or QD-OLED) on Linux
High end OLED (or QD-OLED) on Linux
I'm assuming it works fine, but wondering if anyone here has any experience with it... Obviously, the HDR feature won't work unfortunately...
You're viewing a single thread.
I've been using an Asus vivobook with an oled screen for the past two months. It works perfectly fine, imo especially on Wayland with the proper scaling setting. The only thing you should be aware of is that some apps still rely exclusively on X, and those will look blurry
Off topic, but what distro are you using? I have an Asus vivobook as well and neither the speakers, bluetooth, or touchpad gestures worked whenever I installed Zorin or PopOS. I don't have the time or knowledge to mess around with it so I just went back to Windows
Do you know if your OLED screen has a standard pixel layout or if it has one of the modified ones?
For example QD-OLED are structured in a triangle and some of the LG ones have 4 instead of 3 (if I'm recalling it correctly). The result on windows for both of these is a slightly more blurry text.
The blurriness comes from the (fractional) scaling mechanism use for X applications inside Wayland. Some time ago KDE enabled a mode that fixes blurriness (using the "native" X scaling).
yes exactly, it doesn't have to do with some screen specifics, but rather with the fractional scaling (honestly, with any scaling at all in my experience)
