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.
I'm at Fedora-33.
The graphics card is nVidia GeForce GTX 660/PCIe/SSE2.
The driver (from dnf info):
Name : kmod-nvidia-5.11.13-200.fc33.x86_64
Epoch : 3
Version : 460.67
Release : 1.fc33
Architecture : x86_64
Size : 43 M
Source : nvidia-kmod-460.67-1.fc33.src.rpm
Repository : @System
From repo : @commandline
Summary : nvidia kernel module(s) for 5.11.13-200.fc33.x86_64

It is my understanding that wayland should have been installed by
default when I did an upgrade some time ago, a few releases ago. A year
ago, just after upgrading to F-31, I started having problems with xeyes.
I submitted this bug:
"https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1825370";.
The xeyes problem went away for unknown reasons prior to last November.
I also see that "earlyoom" should have been installed by default in
some earlier release, but I don't have it. I'm wondering if wayland and
earlyoom did get installed and then later removed or de-activated. I'm
also wondering what else I should have but am missing. In other words,
do I have a broader problem?
I will shortly go off line for weekly patches. I should be back on
early this afternoon (US mountain time).
