Which version are you using? Kwin 4:5.5.5-0ubuntu1 Nouveau 1:1.0.12-1build2 (In reply to Tony from comment #2) > Kwin 4:5.5.5-0ubuntu1 That's way too old. Wayland support was extremely experimental back in 5.5 - we just released 5.8. Sorry, i got you the wrong kwin version my bad, is 5.26 not 5.5.5 (In reply to Tony from comment #4) > Sorry, i got you the wrong kwin version my bad, is 5.26 not 5.5.5 That's a frameworks version. KWin only is at 5.8 Sorry again, just updated Neon VM and my main system. apt-cache policy kwin kwin: Installed: 4:5.8.0+p16.04+git20161005.0500-0 My screen still goes black as soon i hit apply on any changes made to the compositor. On the VM instead of a black screen the desktop freeze/hangs instead. But as i was browsing the list of packages and noticed i was missing some that i think i should have had installed already.... kwin-wayland-backend-wayland xwayland-lts-xenial plasma-wayland-desktop kwin-wayland-backend-x11 ibus-wayland wayland-protocols libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts-xenial I installed them, problem still there, but now sometimes instead of getting a black screen i get thrown out to sddm which is better imo. ...... 2 commands, tons of options, same goal, i get confuse.... i'll stick to apt-cache policy and muon from now on.... |
