24 It may be worth mentioning ... I've noticed my MSWindows VirtualBox VMs are
25 malfunctioning when I launch them from within Plasma Wayland. I can login,
26 but then lose the ability to click on anything or interact with the Windows
27 desktop. Things work fine when I run them within Plasma in Xorg instead of
28 Wayland.
