I don't currently use Wayland as I'm on KDE, but I have briefly tested it in F33 under Gnome. My hardware is of a similar age, i.e. the mobo is at least 8 years old and the GPU is a GTX-1050 from 2017, using the RPMfusion driver. It all worked fine. I sincerely hope it will continue to work under F34 when Wayland is supposed to be supported for KDE.
Well, today there was an update to the kernel. And since I've not done this in a while and since the OP is asking about Wayland and said he got a black screen with KDE I figured I'd give it a try what with being a KDE user. I only ran it for about 10 minutes as my time was needed elsewhere. I have a GeForce GTX 660 card and I'm running the 465.24.02-2 packaged by rpmfusion which was released a couple of days ago. So far I only noticed a few hiccups. 1. I have some shortcuts defined and not all window placements were correct. In particular konsole didn't start where I wanted it to and it didn't appear in all the workspaces as it should. 2. Even though the font size in konsole was the same as with Xorg they appear smaller under Wayland. 3. Redshift doesn't work, but isn't expected to. But, neither does KDE's NightLight which is suppose to work on Wayland. I may try more tomorrow, but it wasn't a disaster for me as it has been in the past.
F33 was a clean install of Fedora Workstation, so I presume that's where Wayland came from. If the OP installed the KDE spin it may not have been installed by default.
If his HW requires the 390xx or 340xx series drivers then he is pretty much out of luck. -- Remind me to ignore comments which aren't germane to the thread. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
