Wayland

gadget42:
poked around and stumbled into this FAQ which mentions weston/libweston a few times.

https://wayland.freedesktop.org/faq.html

Juanito:
To use xwayland you need the following in ~/.config/weston.ini:
--- Code: ---[core]
xwayland=true

[xwayland]
path=/usr/local/bin/Xwayland
--- End code ---

Of course the idea is not to use xwayland, which is a little painfull as it means the tinycore helper gui applets don't work.

Note that all gtk3 apps will work without xwayland as it has a wayland backend - qt-5.x apps will probably work too.

Here's an example weston.ini without xwayland (the location of the adwaita icons may have changed):
--- Code: ---[launcher]
icon=/usr/local/share/weston/icon_terminal.png
path=/usr/local/bin/weston-terminal

[launcher]
icon=/usr/local/share/icons/Adwaita/22x22/legacy/accessories-text-editor.png
path=/usr/local/bin/gedit

[launcher]
icon=/usr/local/share/icons/Adwaita/22x22/legacy/system-file-manager.png
path=/usr/local/bin/nautilus

[launcher]
icon=/usr/local/share/icons/Adwaita/22x22/legacy/web-browser.png
path=/usr/local/bin/firefox

[shell]
num-workspaces=4

[keyboard]
keymap_layout=gb

[output]
name=HDMI-A-1
mode=1920x1080
--- End code ---

Hi Juanito. Thank you for sharing this very useful information. It will provide some pain relief.

brave-browser is a gtk3 app, so I guess it should work in wayland. This is what I see in weston, without xwayland, using the default terminal emulator:

--- Code: ---$ sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/dbus start
$ brave-browser
[9170:9170:1020/092545.448733:ERROR:ozone_platform_x11.cc(240)] Missing X server or $DISPLAY
[9170:9170:1020/092545.448763:ERROR:env.cc(255)] The platform failed to initialize.  Exiting.

--- End code ---
Any idea how to fix?

Thank you for that. I found this for custom keybindings: https://github.com/tarvi-verro/weston-binder
Do you think it would be useful to include this module in the weston extension?
