Hello,

I'm trying to get Wayland working and have so far been unable to. I have a 3070, 550 drivers. and Cinnamon 6.2.7. Whenever I login it's stuck at the wallpaper. My cursor is in the middle of the screen but I can't move it. My only option is to physically turn off the computer. How do I get Wayland working?

i'd suggest you to stick with X11 for now. wayland is experimental for cinnamon and is missing quite a few features (supposedly added in mint 22). if you really want wayland, you might want to check out GNOME or KDE (i belive these have the best wayland support)

Is there any way to switch to either Gnome or Kde without reinstalling the whole distro?

#

Mint doesn't have it though, right?

#

What would you recommend I do?
