Regarding your problem: I don't think Plasma/Wayland can work with the nvidia driver. NVidia did add Wayland support to their driver a few months ago, but AFAICT from Google it seems to only work with Weston as compositor and requires special patches to Weston (provided by NVidia). See http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NVIDIA-Wayland-Discussion, that's from April, but I don't think much has changed since then. Please try again with nouveau. If you don't want to uninstall nvidia, you can use a Krypton LiveCD instead: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Medias/images/iso/ See also: https://www.dennogumi.org/2016/06/two-in-one/ In any case, Plasma/Wayland is still more or less experimental and unfinished. I don't think we (openSUSE) really accept bug reports about it. It should start though, and did here when I last tried (on Krypton) if the graphics driver supports it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

It should start though, and did here when I last tried (on Krypton) if the graphics driver supports it.

sorry, but i didn't really understand this last sentence.

I meant that it should basically work if you use a graphics driver that has proper Wayland support, like radeon, intel, or nouveau. Even fbdev or vesa should do, but note that having nvidia installed breaks Mesa's OpenGL support, (including its software renderer), so Plasma won't start at all in that case. You'd need to uninstall nvidia, as mentioned. There may be other problems/missing features or even crashes (might depend on the actual driver in use), but you should at least be able to login. I just booted Krypton on my radeon system here and it worked (it even felt more stable than a few weeks ago when I last tried). I tried on an intel system in the past as well, and it started there as well. As Krypton is a LiveCD based on Tumbleweed (with the latest unstable KDE packages though), it should work on Tumbleweed as well though I cannot explicitly try that at the moment. There's also a "stable" variant of Kryption btw, which comes with Plasma 5.7.0 (again on top of Tumbleweed). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

And why do you think it is the same problem 3 years afterwards?

Only because they have the same symptoms.

The original reporter used the proprietary nvidia driver which doesn't support Wayland. Is that your case too?

No, it is happening on a qemu virtual machine using this qcow2: https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/844617/asset/hdd/opensuse-Tumbleweed-x86_6... Should I open a new ticket, then? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

New ticket created: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1124294

Thank you, that's probably the best in a case like this. Btw, regarding the proprietary nvidia driver (i.e. the original problem here), work finally has started (by NVIDIA) to add proper support for it in kwin_wayland: https://marc.info/?l=kwin&m=154205907402787&w=3 https://phabricator.kde.org/D18570 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
