Could you build this?
No Creating virtual display outputs under Linux with NVIDIA proprietary drivers on KDE Wayland requires low-level DRM/KMS driver configuration and Wayland compositor protocol integration.
What it would actually take: The developer must interact with Linux kernel DRM/KMS subsystem or proprietary NVIDIA driver interfaces (like NV-CONTROL or DRM lease extensions) and leverage KWin (KDE) Wayland virtual output protocols. This requires deep Linux graphics stack knowledge (EGL, GBM, Wayland protocols, and EDID generation) to emulate headless monitors that Sunshine can grab without physical displays.
