Title: xwayland update for x86_64
Post by: GNUser on November 28, 2023, 08:51:55 PM

Hi Juanito. I see you are the maintainer for xwayland.tcz. Would you kindly update this extension in x86_64 repo when you have a chance?

I'm experiencing an Xwayland-related bug in labwc that the labwc developers cannot reproduce. I'd like to exclude the bug being due to xwayland.tcz being too old before I investigate further. Thanks in advance :)

P.S. The issue is tooltips in xwayland windows which refuse to go away, even after mouse pointer has moved away from the button associated with the tooltip. I reported it to labwc developers here: https://github.com/labwc/labwc/issues/1234

I just realized that xwayland is intertwined with all of Xorg and that this is a whopper of a request.

I'm going to solve my problem by disabling tooltips, which I have no use for anyway. Please disregard the thread.

Eu queria muito testar o wayland, mas meus drivers proprietários estão incorretos.

Também, realmente é uma má prática compilar programas para X hoje em dia (no caso recente de aMule), uma vez que diversas fontes diferentes afirmam a depreciação do X.
E também com certeza xwayland não deveria ser uma boa prática, mas sim converter os programas X para wayland ou simplesmente buscar alternativas. Por exemplo, o MPV do repositório atual está totalmente desatualizado, entretanto a versão mais recente do MPV está totalmente bloatware, nem parece que é MPV. Não há outra opção senão atualizar o MPV e recorrer a alternativas mais leves como MPLAYER.

Red Hat considers Xorg deprecated and will remove it in the next major RHEL release (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/pt-br/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html/9.0_release_notes/deprecated_functionality)

CardealRusso, we can discuss in Portuguese here:
https://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,956.0.html

I just subscribed to that thread. You are also welcome to send me PM in Portuguese and I will respond in Portuguese.

We should be courteous and follow the forum's rules, which seem quite reasonable.
