Title: Downgrade KDE/Plasma from Wayland to X11

Hi,
I need a help to understand how to come back to X11 and, by now, to left Wayland. Artix is my working day OS and with the new version of KDE6 and Wayland, I'm having dome problems that I never got before. I'd like to come back to X11, but I didn't find anyway a description of how to do.
Surely in 6 months I'll come back to Wayland, maybe, but now I need to work and I've some strange crash of the system, I've to start the VPN manually and other stuffs very annoying.

Thank you for the help :-)

Francesco

I assume you have autologin enabled, you can turn it off from SDDM's settings and then choose Plasma (X11) from it's available sessions.
Gui way is:

Quote

Go to System Settings → Workspace → Startup and Shutdown → Login Screen (SDDM), and click the Behavior button (you’ll find it near the bottom of the window). There you uncheck the Automatically log in as user(…)

Or edit the file /etc/sddm.conf

#Hitman,
sorry, I did a stupid request, its the age and the fact that I'm a little bit under stress in this period :-)

Anyway, solved 2 minutes after posted the question...

Thank you for your support!
