Just as a side issue to this, when I was searching on the net for information on video resizing, I found an entry for a person raising an issue with video resizing in KDE on Wayland in F34. One of the responses in the issue said that KDE on Wayland was not stable. I remember that in F33 you mentioned to me that KDE on Wayland was not stable, hence is that still the case in F34?

I don't know if I ever used the phrase "not stable" as "stable" would need to be defined to be more specific.

Anyway, I've tried Plasma on Wayland with the current nVidia drivers. It is OK, but should get better when the nVidia driver are updated.  I tried this not long after F34 was released but I didn't take notes.  Except for the clipboard issues
I don't recall what else was bothersome to me.

I would follow https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Wayland_Showstoppers and check and see if anything there is a
showstopper for you.

I haven't read that article yet, but the thing that is a show stopper for me is that with both Gnome and Plasma is that Wayland will not scale above 2560x1600, which was the maximum resolution reported by xrandr until I put in the xorg modelines. The article I found about Wayland not being ready with Plasma yet, also mention a video config file that Wayland uses and when I looked at that it listed all the same resolutions as those reported by xrandr under both Xorg and Wayland.

Something to keep in mind is that "Wayland" is a protocol.  Each provider implements it independently although I believe there is a common helper library.  When I tested F34 Gnome under qemu, it offered resolutions up to 5120x2160.  I included a screenshot of that in an earlier email.  If you're still talking about running it under vmware, then that's where the problem is.  Vmware isn't providing the resolutions you want.
What I'm trying to figure out how to determine is, is the issue vmware, or its it the driver which may be supplied by Fedora or vmware (I'm not entirely sure which), or is it the monitor not honouring the EDID requests?

Steve
