I wish I used any Wayland based DE because of this why it gotta be this way
Whats stopping you from using wayland?
I use KDE and XFCE usually, is what's stopping me. Am I gonna install an entire new OS for a single application? Or DE I guess, but I tried installing Wayland on Endeavour once and it kind of exploded.
You definitely dont need a new os or distro.
I dont know endevour specifically, but xfce and kde look like they fully support wayland.
Looks to be as simple as installing plasma-wayland-session then log out and you should have an option in your login manager to swap over to the wayland version of plasma. Xfce should be similar. If its fucked, just log back out and log in with xorg and go about your business.
Dunno, just trying to help
Oh yeah I did that once, it broke my OS, I recall that. Somewhere at the login manager.
Thanks anyway, at least I know the answer is the same as two years ago
When did you try Wayland? It's pretty good now since KDE Plasma 6.1 (even on Nvidia).
Less than a year ago, I just used one of my random sloptops with an *ntel Core 2 Duo but it broke the install of Endeavour. Maybe I did something wrong...
