This page tracks the Wayland showstoppers throughout the stack. Showstoppers are major bugs, crashes, or missing features affecting the Wayland session but not the X11 session. This is part of KDE's Wayland goal.
Clipboard management
- Plasma fails to paste text copied from XWayland apps: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=424754
- Text copied from a GTK app makes it into Klipper, but cannot be pasted after the GTK app quits: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=424649
- Can't copy text from notifications: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=434675 (very annoying for text messages with a long code you need to enter into a website for 2-factor authentication purposes)
Login/Session management
- Session restoring does not include Wayland native windows: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=436318. Our sessions management recover engine is based on the X Session Management Protocol and there is apparently currently no generic concept to do it on Wayland. But on Qt it's plugin-able and GNOME has —according to their wiki— an own implementation for some time.
KWin/compositing/window management
- When the compositor crashes, all apps die too: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=437709
- Window activation / launch feedback: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/issues/39
- Windows don't get brought forward when activated by another app: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=424795
- No feedback on the Task Manager when an app is launched: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402903
- No feedback on the cursor when an app is launched: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=405624
- Secondary screen doesn't come back on after disconnecting and reconnecting: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=434683
- KWin crashes when monitor goes into standby: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420160
- Very blurry fractional scaling for native Wayland windows due to using a downsampled 2x or 3x pixmap: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/issues/34
- Changes made to cursor theme/size do not take effect in Qt and XWayland software until the session is restarted (takes effect immediately in GTK software though): https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420859
- Desktop Grid effect is missing wallpapers: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=433071
- Context menus mis-positioned in multi-screen setups: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-85297
- Windows that were closed when maximized will open in the maximized position, but not the maximized state: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=437089
Plasma
- Context menus close immediately when the tooltip for thing that you right-clicked on closes itself: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=417939 / https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtwayland/+/347783
- Panel disappears when connecting an external screen: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=438114
- Task Manager thumbnails sometimes don't work: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=427826
- Task Manager thumbnails sometimes show hue-rotated colors for XWayland windows: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=437744
- Saving and restoring activities does not work
- Activity switcher doesn't show up: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=437485
- KRunner doesn't render search results when using the proprietary Nvidia driver: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=432062
System Settings
- Mouse settings don't work: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=438266
Drag and Drop issues
- Can't drag-and-drop between Wayland and Xwayland apps: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=437406
- Can't abort drag-and-drop with the Esc key while dropped file is over Plasma panel or desktop: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=405267
