17523 Update to this: with latest nvidia-current drivers, with latest version of: KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.75.0 Qt Version: 5.15.1 Wayland session is WORKS FOR ME with nvidia drivers! Since there is a fix done upstream in how QT stuff looks for presence of nvidia drivers. (https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/commit/f6c4cc6b8da7b2edd86843c5bde93a45b3eabcf3) See: https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Wayland/Nvidia Managed to have "nvidia-drm.modeset=1 nouveau.modeset=0" added to Kernel command line. Remove unnecessary env variable. Firefox is OK, even DRM streaming site (Netf..). BUT some drawbacks: - Bug 26101: MCC can't launch under XWayland as root as in GNOME. - Main panel with icons and tasks-manager has a weird color. Will upload a screenshot later.

Bad color for Plasma panel under Wayland with nvidia drivers
Screenshot of the bad color in Plasma Panel.
Note also that Kickoff menu has weird behavior when mouse hovers items, it displays menus of precedent item. Mouse must come from right to have good development.
Desktop effects are OK.
mggapplet is unable to run well, nor to get display (like MCC bug).

An other screenshot of the weird bug.
Created attachment 12052 [details] wayland-session.log file Added wayland-session.log when doing some above tests. MCC and mgaapplet can't run. See Bug 26101. Status on RC take 5? For errata? CC:

fri (In reply to Morgan Leijström from comment #6) > Status on RC take 5? > For errata? This is not ready to be user friendly. Tools don't handle properly the Wayland stuff. So Errata. Comment 2 and onwards are still valid. For MCC and root gui, we should implement that is do for GNOME Wayland too. For errata also, Root GUI don't work in Wayland Plasma for now until it is enabled by a fix in a script: xhost +si:localuser:root I have put a link in errata now. The Root GUI problem you mention, is it the same as https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_8_Errata#Applications_that_run_as_root_fail_to_run_in_grahics_mode ? Keywords:

This is the same. Modulo on nvidia-based system, with nvidia-nonfree driver, transparency is not possible. Wrong colors are displayed and Kicker (Application Menu) can sometimes displays wrong entries or last submenu entries for new submenu...

Will dig further this with KDE Neon implementation to see if we do something wrong. Remark, only nvidia-current (version 460-80) is supported by KDE Wayland and accelerated XWayland stuff will be in nvidia 470 and later. Summary:
