Wayland

[Juanito]

You need to start a wayland compositor, xwayland just enables x inside wayland.

Does this info could be put inside xwayland.tcz.info?

[neonix]

Why xwayland is not named Xwayland.tcz?

How many composer are in repo? I tried weston and xwayland and it didn't work. How to run wayland? Do I need configured Xorg?

Why xwayland is not named Xwayland.tcz?

Because I don't like capital letters

How many composer are in repo?

Use the apps gui tags function to search on "compositor"

I tried weston and xwayland and it didn't work.

If you google on "weston configuration" you will find details on weston.ini

..basically you need to include this in your weston.ini

Code: [Select]

[core]
xwayland=true

[xwayland]
path=/usr/local/bin/Xwayland

How to run wayland? Do I need configured Xorg?

As mentioned previously, you need a wayland compositor, if you look in the info file of the compositor, it will explain how to run it. Wayland compositors do not need to use Xorg.

I still don't know how to run fullscreen wayland server, but I understand it's in experimental phase right now.

In TC15x86-64, I install Xorg weston and xwayland.
I was able tu run weston compositor in Xorg's window. And now what can I do inside? Is there any working web browser that support Wayland? Dillo-plus is one that I am aware of.

You don’t need Xorg loaded to run a Wayland compositor - see the info file for weston or labwc.

Firefox and any gtk3 browser will run under a wayland compositor. Once dillo works with fltk-1.4 it can also be used.

Starting from version 16.x of CorePure64, piCore and piCore64 the tinycore gui applets like apps and mnttool will work with a wayland compositor.

Can you give me step by step instructions how to run Wayland + weston on fresh installation?

This code doesn't tell me anything. Why not put this script inside runwayland or runweston. Do I have to rewrite it to paper, and then type it in text mode?

Code: [Select]

howto: (from the console prompt)
                $ sudo -- seatd -g staff -n /run/seatd.sock & XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u) weston
                or for dconf with gtk3:
                $ sudo -- seatd -g staff -n /run/seatd.sock & XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u) dbus-run-session weston

[Juanito]

Why not make a simple script containing either:

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
sudo -- seatd -g staff -n /run/seatd.sock & XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u) weston..then reboot with nothing set "onboot", load the weston extension and run the script.

or

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
sudo -- seatd -g staff -n /run/seatd.sock & XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u) labwc..then reboot with nothing set "onboot", load the labwc and havoc extensions and run the script.

[Juanito]

Using labwc-config rather than labwc in the second example would give better results

Hi neonix

... Do I have to rewrite it to paper, and then type it in text mode? ...

Those are difficult choices.

When I'm faced with a dilemma like that, I use my mouse to
highlight the desired text in Apps. Then:
1. Press Ctrl-C
2. Open editor
3. Paste text (Ctrl-V) into editor
4. Save contents of editor to file

You're in text mode? Save the file to a thumb drive if necessary
then mount and copy the file when in text mode.
