Does anyone know how to test a Wayland session with a Kubuntu 24.04 live USB? I’m testing it out now, but I see that it’s using an X11 session. I’d like to test how the laptop would work under Wayland instead, before installing Kubuntu or Ubuntu for good.

Some web search lead to this post, which gives quite involved instructions but it’s from 2020. Hopefully it’s more straightforward now?

Cheers!

is there some reasy why you can’t use a live usb of a distribution that defaults to wayland?

Fedora for example

don’t these distros package a Wayland session you can select at the greeter/ login window?
