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.

It's in the release notes, you add a Wayland driver to your prefix via registry entry and then unset DISPLAY before starting wine.

https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/releases/wine-9.0

The Wayland driver is not yet enabled by default. It can be enabled through the HKCU\Software\Wine\Drivers registry key by running:

wine reg.exe add HKCU\Software\Wine\Drivers /v Graphics /d x11,wayland

and then making sure that the DISPLAY environment variable is unset.

Note that the registry entry is per prefix.
