From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

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?

[–] D_Air1@lemmy.ml 7 points 8 months ago

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.

Endeavor and Arch both default to a Wayland session currently.
(Tested yesterday)

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

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.

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.

It installs both X11 and Wayland but seems to default to Wayland now.
