so my xcfe4 version is 4.20 , which supposedly support wayland.
now iv’e heard a lot of bad about wayland , but still want to try and see what and what not works .
when i reboot and get to login screen ,i can choose between sessions , xfce4 ( default ) and xfce4 (wayland ) .
when i choose wayland it just goes back to login screen ?
am i missing something ?
