Wayland

I want to try Wayland on Mageia 9. What packages do I need to install to do that. Once they are installed, how do I set things up to start Wayland as the default (I'm going to try it on my spare computer)

Thank you.

On KDE Plasma install plasma-workspace-wayland. Logout and choose Plasma (Wayland) in your login manager.
