fix(nvidia): use vulkan renderer by default to mitigate flickering #211

Closed gerblesh closed 2 months ago

gerblesh commented 3 months ago

Recently flickering on sericea-nvidia was reported in the HWE repo: https://github.com/ublue-os/hwe/issues/260. A workaround or "fix" for a large amount of the flickering on sway is to switch to the vulkan renderer, the nvidia GPUs we support also support the vulkan required extensions and version. I also added an environment variable that fixes some java applications: _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1
