Hi Fabian,
is there an elegant way to "force" an KDE application to use the xcb platform in Plasma/Wayland?
Alternatives via terminal:
terminal$ konsole -platform xcb
terminal$ QT_QPA_PLATFORM="xcb;wayland" konsole
You could copy the .desktop file into ~/.local/share/applications/ and edit Exec= to pass -platform xcb.
OK, I was on a good track with the *.desktop file.
When I start konsole with wayland platform - I cannot cut-n-paste into e.g. firefox.
Clipboard or primary selection? Is Firefox using Wayland or X11? Leap (version?) or TW?
To be honest: What is the difference between clipboard and primary selection? OK, I can check the content of the clipboard but primary selection? [ SDDM ] I am starting a Plasma/Wayland session via SDDM. Checking the XDG_SESSION_XXX env variables: $ declare -x | grep XDG_SESSION declare -x XDG_SESSION_CLASS="user" declare -x XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP="KDE" declare -x XDG_SESSION_ID="26" declare -x XDG_SESSION_PATH="/org/freedesktop/DisplayManager/Session9" declare -x XDG_SESSION_TYPE="wayland" Checking ~/.local/share/sddm/wayland-session.log [3]: Failed to create wl_display (No such file or directory) qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in "" even though it was found. This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. Available platform plugins are: wayland-org.kde.kwin.qpa, eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, xcb. [ KWin/Wayland backend ? ] How can I check which kwin backend is activated and used - here I installed the following backends drm | wayland | x11 [2]. [ Wolf in sheep's clothing ] To be very honest: This is on Debian/testing AMD64 and I wanted to understand the working-together in general. If you have some cool docs or links on the topic Plasma/Wayland like [1], please let me know. Thanks.
