Hello,

i've seen that Zorin15 comes with a Startoption for Zorin Desktop (Wayland).

-> as seen here https://www.secjuice.com/wayland-vs-xorg/ ubuntu 18.04 and newer they decided to switch back to Xorg as default.

With Zorin 15 Ultimate i tried to launch system with taking the 4th option (...with Wayland) -> with that my System hang. When press ENTER after password i see a freeze in login screen and after a timeout i'm back into login mask.

What settings / packages are needed to try Wayland and to propperly start ZorinOS with Wayland?

I've made a fresh install 06.06.2019 as ZorinOS has been released..

I avoid Wayland like the plague - I'm extremely concerned having visited my local LUG that there is an attempt to make this the default graphics layer - NOOOOOOOOO! :evil:
