    Is there some Debian-based distribution with good Wayland support? I like Fedora, I just don't like RPM and the package management...

      I wonder when Fedora 20 picks this update.

        aptosid or siduction...

        But you're probably better off with fedora since it integrates systemd and gnome better.

          I hope this won't be too painful to set up in Arch, since that's probably the most feasible way to really use it before Fedora 20.

            Would you explain what you don't like about rpm/yum?

              Why should it be? Once 3.10 moves into [extra] repo you simply update your system, that's it. You'll have the wayland package installed already anyway, because gtk3 and mesa pull it as a dependency.

                Great news!

                I should try this out on my test machine.

                    Maybe a Kubuntu based? (RebeccaBlackOS)

                    Download RebeccaBlackOS for free. Fan Made RebeccaBlackOS. VT-less Linux With Wayland. I got the idea to name a Linux distribution after my favorite celebrity after I saw some earlier Linux distributions named after celebrities, and also this KDE blog post. http://ivan.fomentgroup.org/blog/2011/05/02/splash-screens-and-qml/ And then I thought, she deserves the free promo too.
