I'm so done with win11, and currently 12 of my 15 machines are linux anyway, but AFAIK HDR (on nvidia gpu) is still impossible? Are you guys all on AMD or just not using hdr for gaming/media? So instead of relying on outdated info, just asking the pros :)

With my configuration, it does. Though it likely also depends on GPU drivers, Monitor, etc. I'm just speculating as I have no clue beyond "works for me".

Any games that have an HDR option in their graphics settings would support HDR I hope. Maybe if the display is already in HDR while in desktop mode, it's possible that launching the game isn't able to toggle it off?
