This is solved well in Wayland, with X11 this is not as straight forward. Wayland comes with some other issues though.

Its Saturday and I got some fighting words leftover from the week/s

Using solved and wayland i. the same sentence is just not right !

Source: nvidia+intel laptop owner.

Wayland+Nvidia: Having it work sometimes under some conditions are not the same as solved. X11 is not flawless either but i feel it works more times under more conditions.

Ok rant over, sorry for sounding like a d*k :)

Nvidia is the issue. Maybe another year and they'll keep improving their driver.
Open sourcing part of the driver might definitely help other projects support Nvidia's terrible software better, though I haven't seen much about laptop support for those drivers. If the closed source crap is kept in sync, at least the system will be more stable.
True !
