Do you have a Nvidia GPU btw?

Linux has two major offerings for display servers: X11 and Wayland.

X11 is old asf and uses TCP/IP to send your data from the GPU/CPU to the monitor.

Wayland doesn't do this I don't think... But I believe it's been known to have issues with Nvidia graphics cards.

Hope Wayland development picks up because last time I checked it still has a lot of bugs that X11 just doesn't.
