For me unfortunately the spin has been broken: when trying to login into KDE Plasma Wayland session, I see a frozen image of my laptop's vendor logo (Dell) or the last "black screen image available" (like the underline cursor in top-left corner).
The session works if I login through another tty (F2 or any other F key) and type `startplasma-wayland`, but not through SDDM. X11 works fine too. It's just the transition from SDDM -> Plasma wayland, for some reason.
- InfamousRece 3y agoFor me the only KDE distribution that works is OpenSuse. I tried many others (including Fedora KDE spin) and had significant issues each time. Even KDE Neon was a disappointment. So I’m in the green chameleon land for now.
- rickstanley 3y agoHow's the grass there? Do you like it? I pondered about moving to OpenSuse, just to diversify, but I'm afraid my work laptop (Dell Inspiron) may not have the same support like Fedora provides (wifi card, "special" firmware updates, etc). In my personal computer I use Arch. It took some time to adjust to `dnf` and copr concept of fedora. For example, since fedora isn't a rolling release distro, I had to jump through hoops to get emacs wayland to work.
- darthrupert 3y agoYep, this is the kind of stuff I see with KDE all the time. I find it weird that people praise it for stability.
- subtra3t 3y agoI tried Fedora KDE (I was using gnome) a year back and faced a lot of problems. Maybe its something to do with Fedora and not KDE, but I had a terrible experience with KDE.
