Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-desktop (Team) <desktop@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 256333: x11-toolkits/gtk40: enable VULKAN by default https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=256333 --- Description --- Vulkan is a non-default rendering backend. Upstream builds it by default if dependencies are found. Vulkan in Gtk4 maybe useful for consumers that already use Vulkan e.g., multimedia, emulators, games. In general, OPENGL + VULKAN are similar to X11 + WAYLAND, both are going to coexist for years. # Need mesa-devel for overlay due to bug 250304 $ pkg install gtk4 mesa-dri mesa-devel $ VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS=VK_LAYER_MESA_overlay GSK_RENDERER=vulkan gtk4-demo https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/running.html
