I can’t make it work on my non touch screen display.

Is Maliit only for touch screens?

So let’s talk about this Wayland thing ( pointieststick.com )

Wayland. It comes up a lot: “Bug X fixed in the Plasma Wayland session.” “The Plasma Wayland session has now gained support for feature Y.” And it’s in the news quite a bit lately with the announcement that Fedora KDE is proposing to drop the Plasma X11 session for version 40 and only ship the Plasma Wayland session....

n1729 OP ,

Interesting take from Nate.

I appreciate that he posted his perspective.

n1729 OP ,

Yep we did read the same post.

Guys seem to miss that dropping X11 from Fedora KDE 40 is still under proposal.

So I guess this means KDE will stop working on Nvidia GPUs with the Nvidia drivers.

@DavidGA if you read the blog, then this proposal is for Fedora 40 [KDE spin only].

n1729 OP ,

Yeah, I’m aware of that.

n1729 OP ,

If Nate thinks that wayland only on Plasma 6 is the way to go then I feel like we as a user should trust him.

Currently I use AMD hardware and for me KDE + Wayland is fantastic experience. Some crashes here and there, with which I’m fine with.

My brother is running Fedora Kinoite + Wayland with Nvidia and he is total noob when it comes to Linux. He is happy and never complained about his system.

So, I would only assume for normal use case wayland is already in good shape currently. It is only going to get better with plasma 6.

Fedora 40 is still 7 months away.
