I'm not sure Wayland would have been part of the default install in 2013, and if all your subsequent installs have been updates than that could explain why you don't have it.
I would have no idea as to the minimum packages needed to support wayland. My system was installed back in 2017 using the KDE live image. Sometime along the line I decided to give wayland a try. I learned that to enable wayland on KDE you would need to install plasma-workspace-wayland. Looking at dnf history this happened on January 13, 2018. Additional packages were installed. Install plasma-workspace-wayland-5.11.4-1.fc27.x86_64 @updates Install kwayland-integration-5.11.4-1.fc27.x86_64 @updates Install kwin-wayland-5.11.4-1.fc27.x86_64 @updates Install xorg-x11-server-Xwayland-1.19.6-1.fc27.x86_64 @updates And after that I don't recall explicitly installing anything to get wayland working. I do recall that back in 2018 the nVidia drivers were not ready to support wayland and I couldn't use nouveau due to rendering issues of Chinese characters in certain applications. So, nothing worked in 2018. Also, FWIW, the 470 version of nVidia drivers will be more "wayland friendly". But that version is not yet in beta. -- 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
