Alright so after seeing your comment I decided to give it another try.
I’m running Plasma 5.27.7 which is what came when I installed when I grabbed EndeavourOS. But it doesn’t come with the Wayland session included so I grabbed plasma-wayland-session from the AUR, And same issue as last time I can’t launch it from the login screen.
I know people have gotten it working fine but on my hardware for whatever reason I’ve had little luck.
What display manager do you use? There’s a very very short list of ones that support wayland sessions: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Wayland#Display_managers . And some of those don’t display themselves using wayland, they can only launch sessions.
Yeah Wayland support apparently doesn’t come shipped with the KDE install on EndeavourOS, Last time to tried to get it running was on an older version of Ubuntu a few months back.
When I tried Wayland on Gnome using my RTX3080 it either wouldn’t load into desktop or if I did it would lead to a bunch of visual glitches.
Haven’t tried it through KDE yet tho as it requires some backend hackery to even allow you enable Wayland with an Nvidia card.
Edit: So some people have been able to get Wayland working on Nvidia fine so it’s worth trying out yourself, Tho I’ve personally not had any luck.
Backend hackery? You just install it and it works

I’m using SDDM which I know supports lunching Wayland because I’m had it work in virtual machines before.
Kubuntu 23.04 comes with wayland preinstalled and it works with my Nvidia card

I’ll install it and try it out now tho thanks.
@HouseWolf @tostiman Wayland on EndeavourOS with KDE is so easy: just install plasma Wayland session, log out and select Wayland as login option…
