openSUSE Tumbleweed Begins Rolling Out KDE Plasma 6 Desktop, But No Wayland Default Yet
phoronix.com

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.

Plasma 6 and Wayland are working great under Tumbleweed for me on my 2-in-1 laptop, but there's still no usable virtual keyboard package like Maliit in Factory.

Honestly, I don't like any of the wayland keyboards, I wish onboard still worked, but sighhh.

I'm just waiting for a good 2-in-1 Linux solution to come around. I don't have the programming chops to try and make something myself.

I'd love to have something like Gboard (maybe de-googled) that completely deactivates when in laptop-mode.

I don't even mind if it's Xorg or Wayland at this point.
