The Sidebarsthe have disappeared

I move to Linux Fedora,
Install and start DigiKam 6.2.0
When I move my mouse outside the canvas, all menus and sidebars immediately disappear – Please look at the attached screenshot
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Load three Pics in the Database
2. Go to the Main screen. All looks good!
3. Then I go to the “Bildschirmfotos" album where the three images are located
4. Now all sidebars will disappear! Please show at the screenshot

What can I do?

Is there perhaps another Linux distribution particularly suitable for DigiKam?
I’ve been work with Digikam on Windows for years. Everything was perfect!
I only changed the operating system. The hardware is unchanged!


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The cause is the Wayland support in Qt5. We will see if the problem is solved with a digiKam with Qt6. Alternatively, you can install an X11 desktop.

Thank You for the very fast answer!
I´m a little bit puzzled about X11
Do you mean:
LXDE Spin
The Fedora LXDE spin is meant to be a lightweight, but yet complete desktop based on LXDE, the Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment.
But isn't X11 a Server probably for windows?
Could you give me a little more information?
