hi. i wonder if in solus 4.1 gnome wayland support is back... even debian ships with gnome wayland option (or default) nowadays.... any chance to enable and let users decide what to do?

    Congratulations solus team. Thanks for bring kde to the family. Love the stability of solus. Carry on and best of luck solus team.

    Girtablulu after adding the workplace switcher did you reboot

    I said I'd try it on my dev machine this morning, and now I've done that. The Plasma SSD was still in the machine from my attempts yesterday, so I can't be sure of what steps might have been done before, although all past attempts had been unsuccessful, but I do know it's been rebooted at least once recently.

    This morning, I opened the desktop settings, created 8 virtual desktops, and pressed the Accept button. Just ONE group of 8 desktops was created, and now I'm thinking even more seriously about adopting the Plasma edition for daily use on that computer.

    It would hurt too much to give up my beloved Budgie altogether, though. I'm going to keep it going in a VM on my laptop for playing games.

    EDIT: I'm not sure of the exact steps needed, or the exact order to perform them, but apparently a reboot is needed as part of the process. Just as you suggested yesterday. Thanks again!

        WetGeek glad it works for you now, would have been probably enough to logout and login again, guess the desktop just needed a refresh

          geo No. There are no plans to support Wayland at all. Even enabling it in GDM breaks proper X11 fallback.

            Thank you for this magnificent version of Solus 4. It is the only Linux distribution that allows me to install and update through a GUI without errors, fast and beautiful.
            My congratulations to the Solus team.

              Sergio1 If MegaSync wants to provide their own repo with a megasync package, they're more than welcome to do so. But we're not going to provide it. Now let's please keep this discussion related to the topic of Solus 4.1, thanks.

                WetGeek It has, but as far as I know you can't put virtual desktops on the the top/bottom of the cube. When switching to a desktop on top you could end up with an upside-down desktop.

                • just replied to this.

                    saitam ...as far as I know you can't put virtual desktops on the the top/bottom of the cube...

                    That's true. Top and bottom sides are called "cube caps". We can put any picture on cube caps (it's the same for both top and bottom caps), but virtual desktops cannot be put on them.

                    Edit: Cube caps in Plasma work exactly as they did with Compiz in Gnome 2 and now in Mate. They can hold user-defined images, but not virtual desktops.

                      Hey guys, as a now longstanding user of the Plasma testing edition I just wanted to say how happy I am you guys have finally got an official release of Solus Plasma. I hope it will get lots of new users as I really think Plasma and Solus fit together very nicely and really appreciate all the hard work that has been put into it since I started using it. 😃

                      geo why don't let people choose if they want to enable? I need it because of the flickerfree video reproduction in gnome and i've not been using xorg fallback in a long time...

                          geo Josh already addressed this. Enabling Wayland breaks the X11 session. It's all or nothing and we can't support Wayland on every hardware configuration.

                            New to Solus and.. great work! To add to the wallpaper talk (which is apparently big upgrade business!) will gnome-backgrounds be upgraded from 3.32 to 3.34? Or is there a reason it is staying at this previous version?
