I have managed to restore the #KDE #Plasma #X11 session on #AlmaLinux 10.1.

I have built some of the @sonicdesktop packages for #EL10 and made them run on @XLibreDev.

Instructions can be found on my #COPR repo here: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/andersrh/sonicDE/

This is not a full build of #SonicDE, but an initial alpha release, which restores the X11 session on an #Wayland only distro. More packages will be released later to create a full SonicDE environment as well as newer versions in order to include the newest enhancements for X11.

Rumor already has it, and it's true. We’re currently working on removing #Wayland support from #SonicDE and the underlying forked libraries. This will pave the way for us to focus on preserving and improving our #X11 version of #KDE #Plasma 6.
