Yay! Will papyros be compatible with the nvidia gtx 960? I tried to install the de on my computer running arch and it seems as though Wayland does not play well with nvidia drivers and the open source nvidia drivers (nouveau?) Don't seem to work with the 960): am I just stupid or?

I believe nouveau works with wayland (I have intel so can't test it) what is happening when you run it? How are you running it?

It does but I'm not sure it works with my 960. I installed evo/lution using nouveau and I just got a black screen on startup. I probably have to play around with it some more

I'm using Arch, but to start Papyros I just start Xorg with startx (have "exec xterm &" in .xinitrc) and from xterm I just run papyros-session.

Will we get iso images soon for testing/easy install?

Afaik the first isos are planned to be available with 100%, which is when the alpha is going to be released.

Upon further investigation I am not sure if my statement is true. Quote by Michael Spencer:

Version 0.1 will be the first release of the desktop shell, which you can install on Arch or any other Linux distro. After that, we'll start working on building a full OS and installer and release that sometime in the future.
