This page tracks the Wayland showstoppers throughout the stack. Showstoppers are major bugs, or missing features affecting the Wayland session but not the X11 session. This is part of KDE's Wayland goal.

True Showstoppers

These are the issues that must be fixed before we can recommend Wayland by default.

Session management

KWin/compositing/window management

NVIDIA


Non-showstoppers

This is effectively an "Errata/Known issues" list: quality-of-life annoyances, problems with workarounds, etc. Don't expect all or even any of these to be fixed before we go wayland-by-default.

Apps

Session management

KWin/compositing/window management

Plasma

NVIDIA


Fixed upstream in Qt 6

These are fixed in Qt 6 but neither backportable nor backported to Qt 5.
