[OM Cooker] Question about OM Lx 3 Beta1 desktops?

1. Something in our Beta1 Bog post has me confused.

"KDE Plasma 5 now runs under the Wayland graphical server which offers 
smooth and fast graphical rendering. This configuration is 
experimental." On my computers Plasma/Wayland doesn't work at all. I get 
black screen with mouse cursor. Does Plasma/Wayland work for other 
users? Is this something we should be filing bugs about? I will grant 
that it is "smooth and fast graphical rendering" at getting to black 
screen...

2. Openbox desktop works the same, ie. black screen with mouse cursor.

3. Plasma Media Center. What is it? How is it different from Plasma? 
Here they seem identical.

4. Failsafe X seems only to open at top left of sddm login screen a 
miniature terminal which is no more useful than a virtual terminal or 
recovery mode.


If I had a vote I'd get rid of all 4 of the above and include IceWM. 
This would also help get us to a GA release faster. I would also not 
include LXQt and Plasma together. I'd have 2 separate .iso's one with 
Plasma5 and IceWM and the other with LXQt and IceWM. *Yep, that's it, 
that's the ticket, that's what I'd do!:-D*
