From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Check the freedesktop site/repos. It was recently updated with support for 20, 30 & 40 series reclocking and hardware support. Runs pretty snappy on a 4080 and Plasma wayland. NVK, the vulkan part of it has been coming along nicely the past fee months as well.
Totally has signs of life.
Can I overclock in Wayland on a 3090 with those drivers?
That's the only thing tieing me to X11.
Overclocking isn’t supported on newer boards with nouveau. You would need to use Nvidia’s binary driver for that. Look at the nvidia-smi command for doing it on wayland. I have not actually tried adjusting the clocks, just the power limit on Wayland though. Look at the”--application-clocks=“ cmdline option to it.
I would assume effort is just being put into NVK instead now
Isn't nvk supposed to be a part of what nouveau provides like how RADV provides vulkan functionality for the AMDGPU driver.
Yeah, NVK is their Vulcan driver. The rest of the user space Nouveau handles OpenGL (though they might just is Zink in the future, which translates OpenGL calls to Vulcan).
It's probably not used anymore since the FreeDesktop Gitlab instance exists.
There's some activity there. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/nouveau/activity
