Hello, I'm facing some rather annoying issues with running KDE6 on Wayland. Despite consulting the Arch Wiki and various online resources, I haven't been able to get it working. X11 works fine, so I've been sticking with X exclusively due to my limited experience with desktop Linux and troubleshooting.
For context, my setup includes an AMD 7950x with Unraid as the main OS. My daily desktop runs on a mainline Arch VM with an RTX 3070ti and a dedicated USB controller card passed through. This setup has been stable for months, serving my gaming and media needs.
When attempting a Wayland session, I select it, observe a brief black screen flash, and then return to the login prompt. This issue persisted through upgrades and tests on different distributions like Manjaro and Endeavor. I've also tried multiple Wayland compositors, all with the same outcome.
The only success I've had with Wayland was on Garuda, which defaults to Wayland. I'm keen on using Wayland due to its evolving features, especially since it's essential for running Waydroid.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. While my use case may be unique, Waydroid is crucial for specific Android apps vital to my workflow.
Thanks in advance!
Linus is absolutely right on Nvidia. The thing is: The graphics server should work with the card, not the other way round.
Why replace functioning, not broken hardware just because the software can't handle it?
