I am using the displayport cable that came with my monitor and it works just fine in win11

they disabled it as of plasma 6.2 because of an sddm bug it needs KWIN_DRM_ALLOW_NVIDIA_COLORSPACE=1 in /etc/environment to re-enable it, but ymmv as to how well it works

probably better to add it to a file in .config/environment.d/

created the folder and a txt file and added KWIN_DRM_ALLOW_NVIDIA_COLORSPACE=1 to it, restarted and it still doesn't work ingame

you still need Gamescope which mostly doesn’t work, so unless you want a more vivid desktop that’s about as good as you’re gonna get right now
