[SOLVED] .. a way to check for Wayland without logging out?

[canadaist]

Is there a way to check for Wayland for testing without logging out?

Wayland isnt available again, and logging out to find I cant log in except to X is an unnecessary step.

Running beta 9, Testing admiring how complete Wayland is, but lost it, about a week ago.

Ta.

You can switch to another tty with ALT+CTRL+F<1..12>, login as user and start another graphical session with wayland.

If you use LightDM, note it do not list the Plasma Wayland option, Bug 31789

Wayland is back.

I think upgrades removed "plasma-workspace-wayland" for incompatability with another Wayland rpm, and there is no reinstall method, except the one I used, check for every file needed for Wayland, re-install them one at a time.

[morgano]

It sounds to me that plasma-workspace-wayland or another package should bring with it all dependencies needed for Plasma Wayland, or else there is a bug to be raised.

Yes, thats what I said, I installed what had been removed.


I think this points to a problem that could be solved. This is the second time an upgrade has removed its functionality without mentioning so. Just Wayland.
