Re: SwayWM on MXLinux (Bookworm)

@manyroads No wisdom to impart and I know little of wayland or any of those minimal WM's but you do a gorgeous job of putting your systems together.. I think these spartan environments would be of more interest to people presented like this on a Live system instead of 'install from the repo and goo...

Re: SwayWM on MXLinux (Bookworm)

@ghunter I am running FF... I have done nothing special aside from trying to eliminate xwayland where possible. Cheating to run x seems to defeat testing to see if wayland actually is worth using (yet). So I did nothing to FF, yet it is Wayland based. Magic maybe??!?! Keybinds I use have been 'homog...

Re: MXLinux 23 sysVinit related Wayland "challenges"/ problems.

Niggling problem #1: missing systray items When running Wayland SwayWM sysV & systemd you will note differences in systray items. Several are missing from Waybar under sysV. Any ideas, why? They should be identical. [...] i guess would be that whatever is provide the autostart functions on sway...

Re: MXLinux 23 sysVinit related Wayland "challenges"/ problems.

siamhie Yes. All normal Debian pre-requisites are installed. I have been following the Debian Wayland/ Sway wiki install recommendations. Everything has worked fine on vanilla Debian (sid) and Lilidog/ Beardog but those installs were all systemd-only based. The only place I have had a problem thus ...

Re: MXLinux 23 sysVinit related Wayland "challenges"/ problems.

FWIW I'll install Plasma Wayland to see what happens... Why don't you try the KDE ISO? I don't have a good answer for that... other than I don't want to build off of KDE. I'm pretty certain an install of gnome (wayland) stands a chance of fixing things but folks here are gnome-averse. In any case S...

Re: MXLinux 23 sysVinit related Wayland "challenges"/ problems.

Have you tried Plasma? Do you see similar problems in Plasma? If not, it means the problem lays with SwayWM... SwayWM and Plasma are among those that don't always play nicely together or 'compatibly' on Wayland. I, also, discovered that my MX install was missing some Wayland essential software. I w...

GO availability for Wayland

@stevo would it be possible to have Go added to the repos? There are one or two apps that require go in order to compile. I can add the materials manually, but down the road they'll be useful to many folks, who may not like building their own, so to speak. https://github.com/nwg-piotr/nwg-look.git h...

MXLinux 23 sysVinit related Wayland "challenges"/ problems.

By way of setting correct expectations, the system desktop configuration I am running has been tested and run earlier on Debian (vanilla, and Lilidog all systemd), Devuan (non-systemd); arch systemd based distros EOS & manjaro. None of the aforementioned demonstrate the problems, I will highligh...

Re: SwayWM on MXLinux (Bookworm)

dolphin_oracle anticapitalista Having begun testing SwayWM (Wayland) on MX 23 I am beginning to encounter Wayland related errors. I'm not certain if anyone wants to hear what I am encountering and if so, where I should post the errors I find. The errors I would report will only be those I encounter...
