Linux Windowing Environment#
On Linux Blender supports both X11 and Wayland for official releases.
When Wayland is detected, it is the preferred system, otherwise X11 will be used.
ヒント
The current "Windowing Environment" is listed in .
X11#
This is the windowing environment that has been used most widely on Linux & Unix systems.
There are no near-term plans to deprecate or remove X11 support.
Wayland#
Support for Wayland is a more recent addition, so there may be configurations that have not been tested yet. Please report a bug if you experience problems.
Blender has been tested with Gnome-Shell (mutter), KDE (plasma) & SWAY (wlroots) based compositors.
Requirements#
- Gnome-Shell
Under Gnome-Shell the
libdecorlibrary is required. This is available as a package on most Linux distribution.If the library isn't found X11 will be used as a fallback.
Troubleshooting#
Detailed Wayland output can help to track down problems. Launch Blender from the command-line with additional arguments:
- Blender's Wayland Logging
blender --log "ghost.wl.*" --log-level 2
- Wayland Built-In Logging
WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 blender
- Disable Wayland (forcing X11)
WAYLAND_DISPLAY="" blender
- Disable
libdecor(forcing borderless windows under Gnome-Shell) Uninstall
libdecor, then run Blender with an empty X11 display variable.DISPLAY="" blender
Environment Variables#
XCURSOR_THEMEThe cursor theme to use (must refer to a locally installed cursor).
XCURSOR_SIZEThe cursor size, defaults to 28, you may wish to increase the size on Hi-DPI displays.
既知の制限#
- Gnome Shell's Fractional Scaling (before version 44)
Versions of Gnome-Shell prior to 44 don't fully support fractional scaling.
Using fractional under older versions of Gnome-Shell may result in glitches such as a small cursor size.
- NVidia GPU
Currently NVidia drivers don't fully support features needed for Wayland. Graphical glitches and flickering are common problems. In some cases, there can be crashes on startup. This is not specific to Blender, so NVidia users may want to use X11 until driver support improves.
