I installed OpenSUSE today on a Mac Pro 5,1. Setup wifi with some drama, but nice, it worked. Realized it was running X11 by default, and I wanted to try Wayland. (I came from Mint Mate).

Switching to Wayland made by wifi not authenticate. Weird. Ok, forget the connection and redo it. Just times out the authentication. Ask Gemini. Common problem apparently.... So you have to setup your wifi via terminal. Oook?

Are you trying to tell me KDE requires you to configure wifi at the command line?

No. No, it absolutely does not.

I have used Plasma on at least four different distros in the past 2 months and that has not been true for any of them.

I used OpenSuse with KDE version just until 3 month ago and never had any wifi problems.

I ued the KDE OS before and had no problem.

I am currently using Bazzite (seeing if it is actually better than other Linux OSes) with KDE and never had a problem. Many problems occured, but wifi wasn't one of them.

Does it require? Maybe not if you do it one way vs the other way. Maybe if I had switch to Wayland before setting it up the first time? Who knows. All I know is I could NOT get it to work via the GUI like I had an hour prior. I tried several things. Eventually asked and read that it's a known bug. Maybe that's fake news. But I'm not a total moron and I couldn't get it to work without using the command line.

For example, I tried to forget and then reinput the password and connect. Would just time out. Maybe if I had forgot connection, restarted the computer, and then tried? I did restart, but not in that exact moment after forgetting but before trying again. Who knows.
