Description of problem: When running Blender on Fedora 35 with Wayland with nvidia drivers from RPM Fusion the dropdown windows are not showing up reliably. This makes Blender unusable. Switching back to X11 fixes the problem and Blender works as expected. To be able to have Wayland with NVIDIA drivers enabled per default for Fedora 36 this needs to be fixed. Name : blender Epoch : 1 Version : 3.0.0 Release : 2.fc35 Architecture : x86_64
Can you consider to report the issue upstream instead ? (eventually pointing nvidia to the problem).
Speaking about upstream, work to support Wayland is on the way: https://developer.blender.org/T90676 Using the patched from the report, Wayland is now enabled on this COPR build: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/luya/blender-egl/build/3032066/ As tested, the resulting Blender build has enabled Wayland support verified with the command: "WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 blender" through terminal. The benefit is the rendering works with OpenShadingLanguage without crashing once the build disable system GLEW. Try it and see if Blender runs smoothly.
Upstream is aiming for Wayland support in 2.4: https://code.blender.org/2022/10/wayland-support-on-linux/
Sorry, in 3.4, not 2.4.
