wayland

With a nice Wayfire Tutorial here in the forum, I was wondering if anyone has gathered any similar experience with Hyprland on FreeBSD already? x11-wm/hyprland and supplementary ports have been added at the end of last year and are kept up-to-date, but I could not really find any info /...

I can start xorg/x11 without any problem. But wayland fails to start with the error message in title. The graphics card is: vgapci0@pci0:1:0:0: class=0x030000 rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00 vendor=0x10de device=0x1f03 subvendor=0x1462 subdevice=0xc757 vendor = 'NVIDIA Corporation' device...

Hello folks, I’m back on the forum and in the freebsd community, it’s been a while. I sold my Xiaomi for a thinkpad (I stop telling my life). Sorry if the answer is somewhere, I’m seeking through the forum since yesterday, same for stackoverflow, didn’t find the answer… I set up FreeBSD 13...

[Mod: Discussion/suggestions/requests are moved here: example-tutorial-pure-wayland-desktop-discussion.85994] Hello, I was fiddling around quite a bit, to get a completely native Wayland desktop on FreeBSD (without using xwayland, only using programs that are capable to run natively under...

I heard that Xorg is no longer being developed and will eventually be discontinued in favor of the newfangled Wayland. Whether I use FreeBSD or Gentoo, I usually install xorg + tiling wm (awesome or xmonad). Both of them (awsome and xmonad) won't work on Wayland. Don't care about Gentoo, I...

Hello, There is a bug or issue on hikari wayland compositor which cause hikari to crash when opening gtk4 applications, e.g celluloid. There is a patch available on hikari matrix forum which fixed that issue. Will be great if it's applied on hikari package from repository. I hope this post will...

Hello, I'm glad I can make it to land on FreeBSD OS (recently I'm using Linux distro for couple years). Btw, how is gnome wayland status? I mean, is it usable now? I'm trying to launch it via display manager (lightdm and sddm) but it's always unsuccessful and get kicked back to login page. I'm...

I have been interested in FreeBSD for long time, I want to use wayland's wm, such as wayfire or sway, how do i? My hardware is i7-7700k + nvidia 1060

Hello, I've already posted here about this problem, but I thought I'd make another post in a different category since I don't think it's a problem with peripherals; rather, it is a problem with the refactored drm-kmod-and-friends ports. I hope that's allright! ☺️ I am on a laptop, specifically...

Hi, I'm having trouble getting hikari and sway running. I'm not using x11. I have installed drm-kmod. What could I have done wrong? I've been "using" FreeBSD for several hours and have a fairly little English, so the bug can be really stupid. When trying to start hikari: jakub@FreeKuba...

Currently i'm experimenting in running "sway" or "labwc" within "xfce4". Do you nest some things, what are your experiences?

Hello together, I'm new to FreeBSD, most of the system runs out of the box. Super cool. But I have two issues. One of them is the naming of USB devices. The libinput problem: I'm using wayland/sway and the command swaymsg -t get_inputs gives me the following for USB devices (mouse, keyboard...

Reading the page 107,Chapter 5. The X Window System on the official FreeBSD handbook and the problem is that's the official handbook does not explain something about installing and managing Wayland. Arrived at this point a question rises in my mind - Is it even possible in 2022 install and use...
