Wayland woes

Desktop Environments Plasma
1

Been playing around with Qtile for most of the week. When I tried to login to Plasma wayland, I get a black screen and a flashing mouse cursor, anyone else seeing this?

Gnome wayland launches OK, though emacs segfaults and brings it down like a house of cards :smiley:

What about qtile Wayland?

Also doesn’t work, all I wanted to do was check if my emacs compile (with pgtk - pure gtk) worked under wayland, was running Plasma wayland until last week.

Rolled back to 13th - wayland working (and my emacs isn’t pgtk as when I kill Xwayland, emacs dies with it :cry: ).

Going to re-update and forget about wayland for a while, will try again in a couple of weeks.

I hear people have more problems with Wayland than I hear people praising it lol
