Wayland support/port for PPC64el

(1/2) > >>

Hi All,

I've installed Fedora 32 (server and later added KDE/Plasma desktop) on my Blackbird and upgraded to F33 when it was released.

I cannot connect to Zoom (on any browser like Chromium or Firefox) and just found that the issue is that I do not have support for Wayland installed on my system.

Anyone here uses Wayland on Raptor P9 machines?

I do not have a graphics card/GPU. I run video directly through the embedded HDMI port that is integrated with the BMC.

Thanks in advance.

I found this about KDE and Plasma on Fedora:

--- Quote ---… Currently KDE still uses X11 and although there is a plasma-wayland session available, it is not considered stable or bugfree at this time ...

But will be default on Fedora 34

Why would Wayland make a difference? Who told you that?

Wayland has been the default for GNOME since F25, though I use Xorg.

Yep, I read about that.

Anyway, I've installed GNOME but the session is x11. Is there a way to force GNOME to use Wayland?

As MPC7500 wrote, there is a KDE Wayland option but if I login with that option I get a black screen and have to forcefully restart the machine.
