Not only does it use it, the F41 KDE spin is based on it and no longer
supports X11 (except via Xwayland.

The default is to use wayland. There are kde x11 packages that you can install, 
but it is left for the user to do all the hard work of figuring out what needs 
to be done.

Perfect for the test!  Thank you!

Perfect. That way I will know how the program
reacts to pure Wayland

And the program works perfectly on
 
https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/41/Spins/x86_64/iso/Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-41-1.4.iso


The program I was testing was Help Wire Operator (client
side is not written yet)

https://www.helpwire.app/download/linux/

I currently subscribe to Any Desk, which only runs
under X11 and refused to run if it find any install
instance of Wayland.

KDE and rumors

2025-02-08 Thread ToddAndMargo via users

Hi All,

I just tested a program to see how it would react to the
Wayland only environment of KDE.

From what little I saw of KDE, I could not help but notice
that KDE is really polished.  It would be a good choice for
moderate and above users.  MATE is still the best choice for
low skill user.

I heard a rumor that Fedora may be switching over to KDE.
Can anyone confirm or deny the rumor?

My vote is that it would be a good thing.  Gnome is too
weird for me.
