Wayland on Plasma is in such a good shape that it now can be the default session for KaOS. For Virtualbox, this means some intervention is needed for auto-resize, upstream does not support this yet for a Wayland session, so you will need to set the desired screen resolution in Systemsettings. When you choose to use non-free Nvidia during the boot-up of the Live session, then Wayland won’t be used, for Nvidia, it is still better to use an X session. Updates to the base of this distribution were very large and they included an updated Toolchain, due to numerous CVE fixes in Glibc 2.33 and almost six months worth of commits for GCC 11.2, a move to Perl 5.34.0, PHP move to 8.1.2 (PHP 7 is still available, to make the transition easier), GStreamer stack moving to 1.20.0, kernel moved to Linux 5.15.23 (lts release), Systemd 250.3, Curl 7.81.0, Mesa 21.3.6, Vulkan packages 1.3.205, Wayland 1.20.0, Sudo 1.9.9, and Openldap 2.6.1…” You can read complete release announcement here.
