openSUSE Tumbleweed Begins Rolling Out KDE Plasma 6 Desktop, But No Wayland Default Yet - eviltoast

The openSUSE Tumbleweed rolling release Linux distribution has begun rolling out the KDE Plasma 6.0.1, Gear 24.02 apps, and Frameworks 6.0 packages. Plasma 5 is being replaced within the Tumbleweed repository but openSUSE Tumbleweed isn’t yet transitioning to the Wayland session by default.

    Are there any Arch based distros with KDE + Wayland by default?

    Endeavor has X11 by default, right?

      Endeavor and Arch both default to whatever upstream defaults to, so if you update Endeavor to plasma 6 then it will be wayland by default.

      I upgraded to 6 on EOS and it switched to Wayland after the reboot after the upgrade. X11 is still there, though. I kept it as a fallback in case Wayland shits the bed at some point.

      Garuda’s gaming spin should. At least mine runs on Plasma 6 + Wayland and I didn’t do anything special to get there.

      Endeavour’s current iso is still KDE 5 and X11, but if you do an online install it will default to 6 and Wayland. Just make sure to connect to the Internet before starting the installer.
