While trying to diagnose problems as a part of another thread in this list, I discovered that wayland is not functional on my workstation. I'm currently logged in to gnome using the top "GNOME" entry in the menu of desktops that is displayed in the upper right corner of the monitor during login. Results of tests suggested in that other thread: bash.12[~]: env | grep -i wayland bash.13[~]: ps -ef | grep -i wayland weilian+ 128352 2160 0 11:15 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto -i wayland bash.14[~]: ps -ef | grep -i earlyoom weilian+ 128358 2160 0 11:15 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto -i earlyoom bash.15[~]: Also, I tried logging in to plasma with wayland. After entering my credentials, the screens went black. After 2 minutes, I hit the hard reset and rebooted. Through 8 years of weekly patches and semi-annual upgrades, I've never done anything to block or disable wayland. Shouldn't it have been automatically installed somewhere in those 8 years? How do I get wayland properly working on my workstation?
You have nVidia HW and are using the nVidia drivers packaged by rpmfusion. To give any opinion about you chances to get wayland working one would need to know your HW and what version of the driver you're running. If your HW is 8 years old, then my guess would be your chances of getting wayland running are slim. -- Remind me to ignore comments which aren't germane to the thread. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 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@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
