Are they gtk3 applications? Their xdg_shell protocol (not yet stable) may be incompatible with weston. The ones in gnome 3.14 and weston 1.6 will be okay I think.

Just launched weston in my x11 environment. Windows cannot be moved or closed, but it works when I use pixman (weston --use-pixman)

That can be strange. I actually use weston built by myself and can't reproduce that.

Then how about weston 1.5.0-1?

That works.

weston 1.5.0-2 adds a --with-cairo=gl flags that I personally don't like (and I remember wayland developers intentionally removed instructions about cairo-gl). And that really causes problem.

So would the best thing to do be to somehow make --use-pixman persistent?

No. --use-pixmap means all rendering in weston will fall back to software, that's definitely not wanted. While --with-cairo build flag is only about libtoytoolkit , the toolkit used internally by weston to draw demo windows.

Might be a silly question but here goes.

Is it possible to use an arch systemd-nspawn container (reboot in it) and have it run wayland?? Can you get what is required (graphics wise) to run in the container?

Using standard wayland (1.5.0-1) and weston (1.5.0-2) packages, I also get freezed handling with weston windows and panel instead of --use-pixman. EGL seems to be corrupted for rendering. No progress with this issue in current development stage? I would like to test E19 on my "waylanded" Arch.

looks like weston does not like some of the tty's to me i think there is a bad bug but we have 1.6 coming soon

Use weston 1.5.0-1 for now. As I said above, it's not the problem upstream but the improper build flag we chose.

stozi · 2014-09-19 13:12:06

any idea on how to match the default x cursor speed in weston?

Hi, everyone.

How to use discrete gpu rendering under Weston / Mutter-Wayland ?
It seems that I can't use DRI_PRIME to force application use gpu to render...

# in Weston
$ export DRI_PRIME=1
$ glxinfo | grep OpenGL
# output:
OpenGL vendor string: Intel Open Source Technology Center
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Sandybridge Mobile
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 10.4.0-devel (git-c6d9801)
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30
OpenGL context flags: (none)
OpenGL extensions:

cpu: intel core i7 2670QM
gpu: ATI HD6770M

Thanks!

jdbrown · 2014-09-25 07:01:33

GPU offloading is not supported in wayland now. It is working in process, I think. It will come when mesa is ready.

89c51 · 2014-10-06 14:21:32

How can someone make wayland/weston use only software rendering so it can run on Vbox. I read that people managed to get Fedora 21 with Gnome wayland to work on it.

I set EGL_DRIVER=egl_softpipe & EGL_SOFTWARE=1 but when i run weston i get:

Anything more i can do??

Cloudef · 2014-10-06 14:35:08

Use the --use-pixman argument.
Though if you want EGL surfaces, make sure your "virtual card" is supported by llvmpipe.

I tried it with --use-pixman and it didn't work either.

This is what i get (i didn't set any env vars)

I'm trying to run gnome on wayland from gdm (selecting the "gnome wayland" option), but the process just hangs and outputs no errors. This alsom happends when running:
gnome-session --session=gnome-wayland

Running weston from tty works fine, I'm using intel graphics drivers.

Any suggestions?

Maybe you have the same problem, what is the output of this command?
"journalctl /usr/bin/gnome-session"

You can compare with my error log:
Gnome-session error link

But I haven't found any solution to this problem?

Did you set the environment variable GDK_BACKEND=wayland?

If so, unset it. Presently gnome-wayland won't launch if you have GDK_BACKEND=wayland set.

@bluebyt
I have a few similar lines:
gnome-session[9779]: GLib-CRITICAL: g_environ_setenv: assertion 'value != NULL' failed
GLib-CRITICAL: g_environ_setenv: assertion 'value != NULL' failed
and:
Unrecoverable failure in required component gnome-shell-wayland.desktop

@jdbrown
Nope

Hello,

I have the same problem, when selecting wayland gnome-session (on Intel HD4000):

Scimmia · 2014-10-16 17:09:41

Do you have xwayland installed?

mrechte · 2014-10-16 17:24:57

Sorry I thought I edited my post. xorg-server-xwayland package was missing.
Thanks

According to this > https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/a … 36033.html

weston should run on virtualbox. I tried it and complains about /dev/fb0 which doesn't exist in /dev.

what am i missing
