What does this mean? I just started trying out Linux for gaming with my NVIDIA graphics card yesterday. What's gamescope?

If you are experience flickering in apps and your windowing system is Wayland, there is likely a fix coming this month in the next NVIDIA patch. And, Gnome and KDE either already have or are working on their side.

Gamescope is a Valve thing that is also related, helps make stuff work on Linux
