Muh freedumbs go both ways. I'm free to have a working computer with working software. You're free to being useless.
Uncooperative for not implementing mesa specific gbm which technically works different than nvidia drivers, and has nothing to do with the wayland protocol? This is why wayland is a joke. Wayland devs expect existing drivers to just bend over backwards for their little snowflake project instead of letting the driver implement things in a way that best fits it.
>Wayland devs expect existing drivers to just bend over backwards
Well they did bend over backwards. Wayland or not, nvidia supporting GBM is a good thing anyway.
Wayland is such a fricking circus show of a project. It's probably the worst managed FOSS project in history, developers spend more time writing drama blogposts instead of code and official protocol specs.

Wayland is an incomplete bothersome mess and it pisses me off, mainly because it does 2 things that I cannot do with xorg unless I sacrifice a fricking monitor. Why couldn't people just try to work out limitations on xorg instead of splitting things like this? Why am I forced to use fricking Windows to make my monitors behave the way I want them in 20 fricking 22?
It's getting better, lot's of improvements in the last 4 years. I've dreamed up lots of hardware plans that had to be set aside for compatibility issues, I can't always have what I want.

Honestly I can see the value in some of that stuff, but I agree that choice is no good when there's nothing that encompasses most of what you would want anyways. Feels like buying a FOSS smartphone where your choices are either you get the one that has a capacitive touchscreen or the one that has headphone output support, but you cannot get the one that has both, it's just not possible.
It'd be cool if there were any but Wayland isn't nearly there yet and the FreeDesktop people moan and whine about "maintaining" X.org which, ironically, they barely even do anyway. But that's fine because they'd just screw it up.
You're waiting for a day that will never come. Wayland will never be there because you're holding it up to the bar of windows. Xfree86/Xorg was behind for the many years it was the only option. Open source will always be behind, it depends on volunteers working for free.

Is that true? Windows is well known for always having had shitty buggy drivers.
I only think of alternatives when they're functionally similar, or the alternative is better in most ways without sacrificing much if anything at all. I like choosing between different pairs of shoes, but I don't like having to choose between wearing the left one or the right one. This sure does feel like the latter.
>Windows
I've used Windows since 95 and trust me, only around Windows 10 did monitor support get good on Windows. And it's probably still not as good as Wayland for asymmetrical monitors.
Kek this is actually funny. They all started with "wayland is gonna be the way, it will be the ultimate interface, it's so plug n play, modules and shit". Now it's 2022 and there is still no consensus on any concept, they couldn't even agree on v-sync topic. It's so hard to get right and implementors always have to deviate.
This is the whole problem with the Wayland mentality.
"It's not us that's broken! It's actually this other thing!"
This TOXIC mentality permeates the whole project.
Take some responsibility and set some standards.
Companies like NVIDIA see this deferred responsiblity, and decides to do things their own way, and then the whole community kvetches.
>Lantinga commented with the revert, "SDL Wayland support is stable, but there are a number of issues with third-party software (NVIDIA drivers, libwayland event overflow, libdecor not handling plugin load failures, Steam overlay not working with Wayland, etc.) that make it better to default to X11 at this time."
On xorg I cannot use two monitors with different refresh rates the way they should work, I always have to turn off one of them if I want to have a decent experience. VRR doesn't work either not just because of that but because VRR only works with one monitor. Only solution I found doesn't support most DEs. The rest I have no trouble with, I think only GNOME has a few issues on xorg. Honestly if I was using a laptop instead of a desktop PC xorg would just work perfect for me.
On wayland the only thing that works really well is mixed refresh rates. Better than anywhere else. VRR works with multiple monitors but it's somewhat broken and only supported through Plasma and Sway. Because of this Wayland/XWayland bullshit many applications have a meltdown when it comes to simple shit like dragging and dropping.
Sure, they just work. Locked at 144fps on both. In your case honestly I don't see the point of running one of them at 165hz (I do have a 165hz monitor and I can't really notice enough of a difference between that and 144hz that I would complain about it if I had to drop it down). Try a 165hz monitor and a 60hz one.
> Try a 165hz monitor and a 60hz one.
This also works (AMD). What doesn't work is VRR mixed with non VRR.
But that is very niche use case. When I use my Monitor in VRR mode for vidya I turn off the other monitor anyways.
All of this is mostly a driver problem and fundamentally not a X11 problem.

Again, they work at those refresh rates, but unless you disable vsync they're framerate capped. I'm using AMD too. This has been enough of an issue to include this:
Also 60hz VRR monitors -are- more niche. It's nice to have the option to not toss away one monitor because you might buy another one and it's honestly a lot more comfortable for multitasking.

Is AMD "TearFree" a vsync?
2 years ago

Tearfree is tricky. Works with low latency, but has frameskipping issues. At high refresh rates it's not too noticeable, but still bothersome. It's never as smooth as what you would have if you use normal vsync on a single monitor with a high refresh rate on x11, or whatever wayland does.
Also besides KWin I don't know of any other compositor that's able to put a manual soft cap on framerate so that it doesn't jump to fricking 1600FPS or whatever and makes the GPU spike to full usage intermittently whenever there's something like an animation. Those animated drop down menus and such are a real riot. If your GPU doesn't have coil whine at such absurd refresh rates it might be fine, but personally I'm not a fan of letting this shit just run at a grossly unnecessary framerate. I'm fine with using KDE Plasma but I would love things to just work at least as well on the display side as they work on Windows. I've been using this workaround last year:
on /etc/environment but it's a weird and imperfect way to get around this shit.

My point was that I don't have vsync and don't have compositing, but still no tears either on my home AMD5700XT or work integrated Intel shit.
I don't have animated menus, though.
There is no current DE that will make Xorg work better, and GNOME on Wayland doesn't even support VRR at all because they're stuck trying to do the impossible which is the same as doing nothing.
That "shitty DE" is the only usable Wayland implementation. You're free to propose your own amazing Wayland implementation that magically solves this problem if it exists, but it doesn't.

>X11 stutters like fricking mad if you have an nvidia card and 144hz monitors
Elaborate.
I have 165 and 144hz monitors. Before I also had a 60Hz monitor.
On AMD 5700XT there is no stutters and since Nvidia is open-sourcing their drivers, I wanted to upgrade to 4090 when it's out.
What are the stutters you are talking about?
X11 doesn't work for you because I say so. If it looks like it works well for you, you are delusional and imagining things. It actually doesn't. A protocol that old can't possibly work for your use case.

And no one cares about your needs. Come back when you can address the needs of all other users with all other combinations of GPU, driver, kernel, monitors, resolutions, refresh rates, etc. Otherwise you're not qualified to comment on window systems. That's the scope of problem space, address it or get out.
Color calibration in X11 is a nasty hack that barely works, Wayland color management will actually work correctly but it's taking forever because this work should have been done by X11 people 25 years ago and they have to make up for all that lost time.
Except that isn't happening. Wayland is developed by the same people as the successor to X11 and is forced to be compatible with X11 in a lot of ways so no matter which way you shake it, it's always the same people's fault.
>X11 developers care

This does not work in various situations like if you have multiple monitors with different color profiles and an app doesn't support multiple monitors, or if you want an app to override the color profile. Again this only works if you stick to the happy path and only use dispwin, in all other situations it's broken. These issues are long known by people who actually use color management, it was never fixed in X11 because no one actually cares about fixing any long standing issues with X11. >Maybe in another 10 years and every WM must implement it on their own.
In X11 it's even worse, every app must implement their own and even then it still doesn't work. >As with everything Wayland devs seem unable to settle on any solution or say it's out of scope of the display server. Oh, sorry, "protocol".

Which displays? Which Nvidia, AMD, Intel GPUs? With which driver versions? Which WM/DEs? You need to be more specific. Anyway this is less than 0.000001% of the possible use cases.

They do actually, display respond to gamma ramps in different ways, that's why you have to calibrate the display. Anyway that's beside the point, when developing a window system you have to respond to ANYTHING else that can break, not just the color profiles. >Works perfectly.

Correct, an ICC profile is just a description of some color ramps. You have to do certain things with them to calibrate the display correctly in all circumstances. >Nah, you alluded at some vague "issues" at best.
Those are the issues, they're vague because X11 is also extremely vague when it comes to specifying what the color profiles are supposed to do or when they're supposed to apply. The situation is basically that apps can do whatever.

I'm not part of any development team nor am I spreading FUD about X11. Anyone who actually worked on X11 over the last 20 years will tell you it sucks and needed to be replaced long ago. In fact longer they worked on the more likely they are to tell you it sucks.
I'm convinced that the Linux community on IQfy is subject to some elaborate psyop, all you have to do to convince people to use something on this board is explain why it's bad. After that you all flock to it and intentionally cripple your own computer apparently because you think by doing that you're showing those "larpers" who's boss?

What's the problem? People who build a system learn from the experience and can then build a better system the next time. You would know this if you ever built something, but we all can tell you haven't written a single line of code in your life.
Please stop projecting. The only step the window system needs to be involved in is applying the current profile. Everything else is done outside the window system.

What's your point? Storing the color profiles is obviously a different task from managing the display profile but you still need to do both to have a working color management system. Wayland is not going to reimplement colord in a wayland protocol.

Yes the developers of colord were smart and implemented it in a way that's not tied to any window system and can even be used without a window system to color manage programs running directly on the framebuffer. In the future more things will be done that way, tying software to X11 or Wayland or any window system is almost always stupid and unnecessary. >In other words, it will be gimped and garbage like I thought.

I'll be the first to admit Xorg is pretty shit, and have no particular soft spot for it. But--like dwm.exe--at least it works.

By design wmctrl doesn't really work on X11 either. It requires the window manager to support certain atoms and some window managers break it. >If they could, they probably would

No and no. You're the cancer killing FOSS, you're the reason why competent people don't want to waste time with this trash.

No, this is the opposite of reality. When you work with image and video content the content has its own profile and that information is needed to display it correctly. You NEED to be able to change profiles on the fly. This is the main point of color management, not whatever the frick you're using it for. >But give such an app and I'll check.

Because you stick to the happy path on very specific hardware and the "job" you do with it is not actually a job for color management. >Such as?

Wayland works in even more limited situations than X11 which is sad.
Bullshit, I have laptop with Nvidia and 144hz screen and everything runs smoothly. I even tried Wayland and everything smoothly the same there (but plasmashell refuse to start tho)
That's fine, just people like using multiple monitors for multiple things

wat?
Color calibration is insecure. What if a compromised application changes your color settings?
You are stupid dwl is nowhere near done. It's unstable and has quite some bugs.
Waymeme still has no support for monitor color calibration and thus is useless for professional editing work
What the frick are you guys on about?
Wayland supports all of that. At least on KDE.

Color calibration is important and it is supported by Wayland. I use it on KDE Wayland.

do you ever just hear yourself talking?
Uncooperative for not implementing mesa specific gbm which technically works different than nvidia drivers, and has nothing to do with the wayland protocol? This is why wayland is a joke. Wayland devs expect existing drivers to just bend over backwards for their little snowflake project instead of letting the driver implement things in a way that best fits it.

Two more weeks and Wayland will finally replace X.
>Nvidia
Not my problem.

>Using Wayland on desktop
No shit your gonna have a bad time with Wayland as your desktop. Works great for kiosks or running inside x but its not ready to daily yet.
Xorg came out in 2004
You all act like xorg is as old as unix or something
Wayland is slightly newer than xorg
Xorg is just Xfree in a uniform.
the x window system protocol is from the 80's
x11 released june 1987
About time for X12!
x12 will run on dx12
holy shit is this real??!!
based
x.org is just a renamed XFree86 which came out in 1991
Wayland is an incomplete bothersome mess and it pisses me off, mainly because it does 2 things that I cannot do with xorg unless I sacrifice a fricking monitor. Why couldn't people just try to work out limitations on xorg instead of splitting things like this? Why am I forced to use fricking Windows to make my monitors behave the way I want them in 20 fricking 22?
It's getting better, lot's of improvements in the last 4 years. I've dreamed up lots of hardware plans that had to be set aside for compatibility issues, I can't always have what I want.
I just can't be bothered with having to limit my hardware setup because there's no good display server on linux.
now you see why the rest of the board mocks linux shills
the "freedom" in foss means freedom to choose between 100 shit options and none of them work
Honestly I can see the value in some of that stuff, but I agree that choice is no good when there's nothing that encompasses most of what you would want anyways. Feels like buying a FOSS smartphone where your choices are either you get the one that has a capacitive touchscreen or the one that has headphone output support, but you cannot get the one that has both, it's just not possible.
I think it's pretty cool to have alternatives my dude
It'd be cool if there were any but Wayland isn't nearly there yet and the FreeDesktop people moan and whine about "maintaining" X.org which, ironically, they barely even do anyway. But that's fine because they'd just screw it up.
You're waiting for a day that will never come. Wayland will never be there because you're holding it up to the bar of windows. Xfree86/Xorg was behind for the many years it was the only option. Open source will always be behind, it depends on volunteers working for free.
>holding it up to the bar of windows
I haven't been a Windows user in forever. Why bother?
Then you have nothing to compare it to.
Is that true? Windows is well known for always having had shitty buggy drivers.
I only think of alternatives when they're functionally similar, or the alternative is better in most ways without sacrificing much if anything at all. I like choosing between different pairs of shoes, but I don't like having to choose between wearing the left one or the right one. This sure does feel like the latter.
>Windows
I've used Windows since 95 and trust me, only around Windows 10 did monitor support get good on Windows. And it's probably still not as good as Wayland for asymmetrical monitors.
Kek this is actually funny. They all started with "wayland is gonna be the way, it will be the ultimate interface, it's so plug n play, modules and shit". Now it's 2022 and there is still no consensus on any concept, they couldn't even agree on v-sync topic. It's so hard to get right and implementors always have to deviate.
the problem with the vsync topic is not because of wayland, it was because of missing functionality in opengl and vulkan
What missing functionality?
Several vulkan present modes are completely broken in wayland so maybe he means that.
so he's full of shit and it has nothing to do with vulkan nor opengl, just deficiencies of wayland
This is the whole problem with the Wayland mentality.
"It's not us that's broken! It's actually this other thing!"
This TOXIC mentality permeates the whole project.
Take some responsibility and set some standards.
Companies like NVIDIA see this deferred responsiblity, and decides to do things their own way, and then the whole community kvetches.
couldn't that just be a checkbox?
no
Wayland guy is so egotistical that he won’t even put that flexibility. He is a self righteous homosexual.
see
the flexibility can't be added because of problems in opengl and vulkan
Works fine on Xorg.
You're full of shit.
X.org is old, therefore it doesn't count.
SDL is a VIDEO GAME platform primarily, they will never go to Wayland until it surpasses X11 in certain key ways.
except no because the main problem listed in OP is nvidia drivers, they will go when nvidia gets their shit together
Wayland is over half the age X was when it started development and it still hasn't replaced it.
"Wayland was never meant to replace X11 anyway!"
NEW = BETTER
>Lantinga commented with the revert, "SDL Wayland support is stable, but there are a number of issues with third-party software (NVIDIA drivers, libwayland event overflow, libdecor not handling plugin load failures, Steam overlay not working with Wayland, etc.) that make it better to default to X11 at this time."
GUEYLAND WILL NOT BE STOPPED
On xorg I cannot use two monitors with different refresh rates the way they should work, I always have to turn off one of them if I want to have a decent experience. VRR doesn't work either not just because of that but because VRR only works with one monitor. Only solution I found doesn't support most DEs. The rest I have no trouble with, I think only GNOME has a few issues on xorg. Honestly if I was using a laptop instead of a desktop PC xorg would just work perfect for me.
On wayland the only thing that works really well is mixed refresh rates. Better than anywhere else. VRR works with multiple monitors but it's somewhat broken and only supported through Plasma and Sway. Because of this Wayland/XWayland bullshit many applications have a meltdown when it comes to simple shit like dragging and dropping.
>On xorg I cannot use two monitors with different refresh rates the way they should work,
Why?
I have 165 and 144Hz monitors and they just work.
Sure, they just work. Locked at 144fps on both. In your case honestly I don't see the point of running one of them at 165hz (I do have a 165hz monitor and I can't really notice enough of a difference between that and 144hz that I would complain about it if I had to drop it down). Try a 165hz monitor and a 60hz one.
> Try a 165hz monitor and a 60hz one.
This also works (AMD). What doesn't work is VRR mixed with non VRR.
But that is very niche use case. When I use my Monitor in VRR mode for vidya I turn off the other monitor anyways.
All of this is mostly a driver problem and fundamentally not a X11 problem.
Again, they work at those refresh rates, but unless you disable vsync they're framerate capped. I'm using AMD too. This has been enough of an issue to include this:
https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=X.Org-AsyncFlipSecondaries
Also 60hz VRR monitors -are- more niche. It's nice to have the option to not toss away one monitor because you might buy another one and it's honestly a lot more comfortable for multitasking.
> but unless you disable vsync
The whole point of using X11 is that you can disable vsync and let applications handle vsync individually.
It's very simple, I don't want to have tearing on the desktop, and I don't want to have my desktop capped to 60fps. X11 is one or the other.
>but unless you disable vsync they're framerate capped
Is AMD "TearFree" a vsync?
Tearfree is tricky. Works with low latency, but has frameskipping issues. At high refresh rates it's not too noticeable, but still bothersome. It's never as smooth as what you would have if you use normal vsync on a single monitor with a high refresh rate on x11, or whatever wayland does.
Also besides KWin I don't know of any other compositor that's able to put a manual soft cap on framerate so that it doesn't jump to fricking 1600FPS or whatever and makes the GPU spike to full usage intermittently whenever there's something like an animation. Those animated drop down menus and such are a real riot. If your GPU doesn't have coil whine at such absurd refresh rates it might be fine, but personally I'm not a fan of letting this shit just run at a grossly unnecessary framerate. I'm fine with using KDE Plasma but I would love things to just work at least as well on the display side as they work on Windows. I've been using this workaround last year:
KWIN_X11_NO_SYNC_TO_VBLANK=1
KWIN_X11_REFRESH_RATE=165000
KWIN_X11_FORCE_SOFTWARE_VSYNC=1
on /etc/environment but it's a weird and imperfect way to get around this shit.
My point was that I don't have vsync and don't have compositing, but still no tears either on my home AMD5700XT or work integrated Intel shit.
I don't have animated menus, though.
>Sure, they just work. Locked at 144fps on both
Works on my machine.
Wrong. Your shitty DE is at fault here.
There is no current DE that will make Xorg work better, and GNOME on Wayland doesn't even support VRR at all because they're stuck trying to do the impossible which is the same as doing nothing.
That "shitty DE" is the only usable Wayland implementation. You're free to propose your own amazing Wayland implementation that magically solves this problem if it exists, but it doesn't.
I don't give a shit about Wayland and I sure as hell won't contribute anything to this troonwreck of a project. All my shit works on X.
why would sdl even have a default, sounds like it was initially a shady move to push wayland but rh software is that bad they had to revert omg..
I mean if the application doesn't specify one or another, you have to pick one of the two to try first. It's not unreasonable.
I'm not sure why I should care about this
That article is old issues have been fixed and wayland is default on SDL you homosexual
https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=x_wayland_situation&num=1
If anyone here has tried reading this article and realised why X needs to fricking die already
> You can't have lock-screen with a pop-up window active
I opened an "open file" dialogue in GIMP and launched "i3lock-fancy". It works.
I assume everything else in that article is also a lie or a half-truth?
>The X server is huge and stupid.
Very objective statement. Makes it perfectly clear what kind of person wrote this garbage. Stopped reading there btw.
> Media keys
Last time I checked, Wayland had no alternative to something like sxhkd and active window took precedent over the global hotkeys, fricking everything up.
> Who had problems with multiple monitors
Not me, I just run xrandr from my WM-launch-script and it works perfectly. That's also where I launch my color profiles for each monitor.
Others probably use their DEs which also have no issues.
> Compositing
No idea, I don't use it.
Everyone agrees that X needs to die.
The point is that Wayland is a terrible solution.
it's not even a solution. it is objectively worse. we will stay on x11 until someone creates a replacement
>2013
Incredibly dated and not worth reading
oh like X
True. Unfortunately wayland managed to be even worse in the longrun.
Based. Frick wayland.
X11 stutters like fricking mad if you have an nvidia card and 144hz monitors, esp if you mix it with a monitor that is 120 or 60hz.
>X11 stutters like fricking mad if you have an nvidia card and 144hz monitors
Elaborate.
I have 165 and 144hz monitors. Before I also had a 60Hz monitor.
On AMD 5700XT there is no stutters and since Nvidia is open-sourcing their drivers, I wanted to upgrade to 4090 when it's out.
What are the stutters you are talking about?
X11 doesn't work for you because I say so. If it looks like it works well for you, you are delusional and imagining things. It actually doesn't. A protocol that old can't possibly work for your use case.
> X11 doesn't work for you because I say so
you went full pottering. never go full pottering
Poettering has nothing to do with Wayland at all.
It's his style of reasoning. I say it does not work so it must be replaced.
systemd does provide features that the alternatives don't have.
This. I'm not a systemd fan myself, but it provided full backwards compatibility and actually provided new features. Also, systemd is an actual real thing unlike wayland which punts responsibility left and right without defining any firm standards. There was a reason for people to switch from sysvinit to systemd.
Anything on the desktop or in a browser no matter what browser has random stutters even when running at a smooth 144hz. I have been trying to solve it for years now to no avail.
It almost looks like the frame is is showing when it stutters is the same as the one like 5 frames ago.
Well shit.
Maybe I'm not getting Nvidia after all.
Yeah don't, it is honestly such a pain.
Granted I might just be moronic. And if someone knows something I don't I'd love to hear it
Have you tried playing with ForceCompositionPipeline? Vsync on or off? Compositor (try without)? export __GL_YIELD="usleep" helps? export __GL_SYNC_DISPLAY_DEVICE="$MONITOR" helps?
I don't get it, I thought nvidia solved all X11 issues.
>A protocol that old can't possibly work for your use case.
This but unironically. X11 only "works" under very specific situations with very specific drivers and if you limit yourself to the happy path implemented by those drivers.
No one cares if you stay on X11. Reminder that you will never contribute a single line of code to X11.
>No one cares if you stay on X11.
You very much do care, hence the foam around your mouth.
Why would I be foaming about some loser on IQfy who insists on harming herself by using dead software that she will never contribute to? Do you think you're special?
Wayland is 13 years old now and I don't want to use deprecated software. We need a modern replacement, now.
>Why would I be foaming about some loser on IQfy who insists on harming herself by using dead software that she will never contribute to?
Don't ask me why, I'm just stating the facts.
These "facts" that you cannot explain or elaborate on? How convenient for you.
What is there to explain? You ARE absolutely mad that there is one person in the world running X11. I don't know how or why, but that's how things are.
>X11 only "works" under very specific situations with very specific drivers and if you limit yourself to the happy path implemented by those drivers.
Interestingly, these "specific situations" cover 99% of my needs, while Wayland doesn't work for the same needs.
I can't even color calibrate my display, FFS.
And no one cares about your needs. Come back when you can address the needs of all other users with all other combinations of GPU, driver, kernel, monitors, resolutions, refresh rates, etc. Otherwise you're not qualified to comment on window systems. That's the scope of problem space, address it or get out.
Color calibration in X11 is a nasty hack that barely works, Wayland color management will actually work correctly but it's taking forever because this work should have been done by X11 people 25 years ago and they have to make up for all that lost time.
Only because of nvidia. Yes they are sad.
>Only because of nvidia.
Explain, in technical detail, exactly how.
Most of the current blocking bugs are with the proprietary nvidia drivers.
Except that isn't happening. Wayland is developed by the same people as the successor to X11 and is forced to be compatible with X11 in a lot of ways so no matter which way you shake it, it's always the same people's fault.
>X11 developers care
X11 developers are the same people as Wayland developers.
>It works with any of those on X11. Have been using it for decades.
You have tested every single piece of hardware in existence over the last several decades, with every possible use case? Proof?
>It is already addressed by X11.
Proof?
>I simply load it with dispwin and it works perfectly.
This does not work in various situations like if you have multiple monitors with different color profiles and an app doesn't support multiple monitors, or if you want an app to override the color profile. Again this only works if you stick to the happy path and only use dispwin, in all other situations it's broken. These issues are long known by people who actually use color management, it was never fixed in X11 because no one actually cares about fixing any long standing issues with X11.
>Maybe in another 10 years and every WM must implement it on their own.
In X11 it's even worse, every app must implement their own and even then it still doesn't work.
>As with everything Wayland devs seem unable to settle on any solution or say it's out of scope of the display server. Oh, sorry, "protocol".
There is one solution that's being worked on by everyone. That's another reason why it's taking so long, the more people the more time it takes to come to an agreement.
Show the scientific proof. How are you measuring anger?
>Most of the current blocking bugs are with the proprietary nvidia drivers.
Lie.
>Wayland is developed by the same people as the successor to X11
Lie.
>In X11 it's even worse, every app must implement their own
Lie, you can get ICC profile information from xorg.
>There is one solution that's being worked on by everyone.
And it will be ready in another 10 years.
>Lie
No.
>Lie
No.
>Lie
No.
>you can get ICC profile information from xorg.
Which does nothing by itself, the app then has implement the color profile. There's no reason for that, it should be implemented by the server.
>And it will be ready in another 10 years.
You don't seem to understand, this will never be correctly implemented in X11 proper. 10 years is still better than infinity years.
> X11 developers are the same people as Wayland developers.
All of the X11 developers are Wayland developers? I don't believe you.
And, obviously, X11 devs care about this and Wayland devs don't.
> You have tested every single piece of hardware in existence over the last several decades, with every possible use case? Proof?
I have tested it on Nvidia, AMD, Intel with 1-5 displays with different refresh rates and WM/DE and so on.
It just works.
> Proof?
My system running right now with properly calibrated displays.
You could also open any resource on ICC profile loading online and check it yourself.
> This does not work in various situations like if you have multiple monitors with different color profiles
That's literally my setup. I have multiple monitors from different manufacturers and use different profiles for each of them.
> and an app doesn't support multiple monitors
What? Any app can be put on multiple monitors in X11.
> or if you want an app to override the color profile.
I'd prefer nothing changing my color profile, that's the point of profiles.
But give such an app and I'll check.
> Again this only works if you stick to the happy path and only use dispwin
1. Not true, there are other ICC loaders.
2. Why wouldn't I? It just works and it does its job perfectly.

It got moved to gitlab later. Yes, they've been working on this protocol for 3 fricking years already lmao. Don't worry wayland bros, we'll get an hdr/color-management protocol one day. I'm sure it won't be totally gimped in some stupid way either if they ever do finish it.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/14
Seems they shifted that to Weston, lol.
>All of the X11 developers are Wayland developers?
Most of them, not all.
>And, obviously, X11 devs care about this and Wayland devs don't.
Nope, they are mostly the same people who care about the same things.
>I have tested it on Nvidia, AMD, Intel with 1-5 displays with different refresh rates and WM/DE and so on.
Which displays? Which Nvidia, AMD, Intel GPUs? With which driver versions? Which WM/DEs? You need to be more specific. Anyway this is less than 0.000001% of the possible use cases. Now you need to test with every display ever manufactured, every GPU, every WM/DE, every app, etc. And I mean ALL of them. You can't skip ANY because someone who owns that will eventually cry and moan on IQfy that his shit doesn't work. Sound hard? Yes that's what it means to develop a window system.
>My system running right now with properly calibrated displays.
Not proof. No one cares about your system. You need to test every other possible system.
>I have multiple monitors from different manufacturers and use different profiles for each of them.
That's broken. You will witness that it's broken when you drag certain windows across the monitors.
>What? Any app can be put on multiple monitors in X11.
The app has to support changing the color profile or it won't work.
cont'd
colord solves all of this. wayland will never be as good.
Colord still works on wayland
Yeah without using wayland-specific shit at all because wayland is so bad. I guarantee you that colord will be better than whatever wayland devs finally cook up.
>Colord still works on wayland
Example? I'd like to try it with a WM.
> Most of them
Got anything to substantiate it?
> Nope
Great argumentation.
> You can't skip ANY because someone who owns that will eventually cry and moan on IQfy that his shit doesn't work.
Have a single example? If my use case is less than 0.0000001, there must be billions of such cases.
Again, stop pretending to be moronic. ICC loading in X11 and dispwin in particular don't depend on your display type or sound card. It simply loads and applies ICC profile. Simple as that.
> Not proof
Lol.
> That's broken.
Works perfectly.
> You will witness that it's broken when you drag certain windows across the monitors.
Such as?
> The app has to support changing the color profile or it won't work.
Are you moronic? Color profile is not on per-app basis and doesn't require any support from them.

If you say so.

Concrete example, please. Preferably with the settings that supposedly don't work.

They work?

So, calibrating displays is not a job for ICC profiles? Sure.

Nah, you alluded at some vague "issues" at best.
> design_goals.rst
> Video card properties, including "the LUT", are controlled by the compositor itself
and they are never exposed for clients to set directly
Yep, it's another "not a protocol issue". Who could have guessed. Didn't you mention how Wayland will do it right for the server unlike X11?
> Brooks' law is an observation
Lol.
>Got anything to substantiate it?
Go look at the people who are actually leading development.
>Have a single example?
You can find countless examples in IQfy threads.
>there must be billions of such cases.
Yes, when you consider all drivers, displays, GPUs, etc. there are billions of combinations. You're finally getting it.
>ICC loading in X11 and dispwin in particular don't depend on your display type or sound card.
They do actually, display respond to gamma ramps in different ways, that's why you have to calibrate the display. Anyway that's beside the point, when developing a window system you have to respond to ANYTHING else that can break, not just the color profiles.
>Works perfectly.
You haven't tested it in all cases.
>Such as?
Anything that doesn't support color profiles in the exact way those monitors and that configuration expects it to.
>Are you moronic?
Please stop projecting.
>Color profile is not on per-app basis and doesn't require any support from them.
Actually it is and it does.
>If you say so.
I don't say so, cameras say so.
>Concrete example, please. Preferably with the settings that supposedly don't work.
Any video editor with any settings that don't match the display. Now it's obvious you're just a gamer troll and you don't know what a video editor or a camera is.
>They work?
No.
>So, calibrating displays is not a job for ICC profiles?
Correct, an ICC profile is just a description of some color ramps. You have to do certain things with them to calibrate the display correctly in all circumstances.
>Nah, you alluded at some vague "issues" at best.
Those are the issues, they're vague because X11 is also extremely vague when it comes to specifying what the color profiles are supposed to do or when they're supposed to apply. The situation is basically that apps can do whatever.
>Go look at the
Got it, no actual comparison list, but you are sure they are the most of X11 devs.
> You can find countless examples
Suuure. It just happens that you can't give a single one.
> there are billions of combinations
Any examples of them being broken, though? So far there's nothing from you and a lot of working combinations from me.
> You haven't tested it in all cases.
There you go pretending to be mentally challenged again.
Provide a case where it will be broken. As said before, by your estimates there should be billions online.
> Anything that
No example? I'm shocked.
> Any video editor
See above, lol

Yes.

Created from calibration hardware and software and applied to the screen.
Again, how are they not used for calibration?
> Those are the issues, they're vague because
Nah, if there were any concrete issues, you would have been able to provide concrete examples.
You can't.

Works reliably on X11

Hahaha, every time. Again, didn't you mention how Wayland will totally implement it correctly? So far they just shifted it to something else.

By not doing it for the server? Seems like a regular Wayland "solution".

Okay, you are mentally challenged.
>Got it, no actual comparison list, but you are sure they are the most of X11 devs.
I'm not making a list of targets for you to go and harass, if you don't already know and work with these people regularly then you're just an outsider talking trash and it's pointless to talk about it with you.
>Suuure. It just happens that you can't give a single one.
I'm also not going to explain to you how to search a IQfy archive. You figure it out mister tech genius, you'll totally get it quickly with your 9 million IQ.

Several were already given. You can't read.
>There you go pretending to be mentally challenged again.
Please stop projecting.
>Created from calibration hardware and software and applied to the screen.
The key piece is the calibration hardware and software, those are the most important part. Not the profiles.
>Nah, if there were any concrete issues, you would have been able to provide concrete examples.
Several were already given. You can't read.
>You can't.
Reminder you have nothing to add to this conversation besides "lol works on my machine"
>Works reliably on X11
Nope, try running an app that overrides dispwin, it will frick all your shit up.
>Hahaha, every time.
What's the problem here? Contrary to what you think, a window system cannot fix every problem with an extra protocol. Some problems need to be solved elswhere.
>Again, didn't you mention how Wayland will totally implement it correctly?
I wasn't going to say it because documents were already posted that explained it and assumed you could read. But since you can't, the way it will work is by having the compositor handle all color space conversions.
>By not doing it for the server?
This is doing it for the server.
>Seems like a regular Wayland "solution".
You don't know anything about window systems.
>Okay, you are mentally challenged.
Please stop projecting.
>I'm not making a list of targets for you to go and harass
lmao what a LARPer moron. Their names are all public.
There are only two possible scenarios here.
Scenario 1: You don't know them and that's why you're asking me their names so you can go and troll and harass them.
Scenario 2: You do know them and you're just asking because you're trying to troll and harass ME.
Either way, I have no reason to give you their names. Make your tactics less obvious next time.
I'm not even you're the same person. You're just the typical wayland LARPer. You pop up in these threads spewing dumb garbage. Everyone can see through you.
I'm not even the same person*
>you're asking me their names so you can go and troll and harass them.
Now I see why you use the word projection so much. Guilty conscience?
> There are only two possible scenarios here.
> Both are about trolling
As I said in
that's pretty sad.
Still, I want the lists because I hear this "They are the same devs!" from these threads (now I think it may be you samegayging in every Wayland thread) and never got any proof.
And it's always the same:
> 1. It's the same devs!
All the same devs?
> 2. Well, it's mostly the same devs!
Which in particular and how many?
> 3. I won't tell you which!
Also it's always fun how Wayland shills switch from "it's the same guys -> good!" to "X11 is a clusterfrick and was developed in moronic way".
>trigglypuff needs a safe space
aww, don't forget to write a tumblr post about how you got offended on IQfy!
from the way he's writing he's implying to be part of the development team.
he is either biased and spreading FUD about X11, or a larper.
either way, by engaging him you have allowed him to show it. thank you and keep up the good work.
I don't care who he is, by this point I'm just having fun looking at all the ways he dodges giving a single concrete example.
of course there are no concrete examples. all the arguments wayland devs give for using it come from ignorance
after many egg-on-face moments they learn never to be specific, just like politicians
I'm not part of any development team nor am I spreading FUD about X11. Anyone who actually worked on X11 over the last 20 years will tell you it sucks and needed to be replaced long ago. In fact longer they worked on the more likely they are to tell you it sucks.
I'm convinced that the Linux community on IQfy is subject to some elaborate psyop, all you have to do to convince people to use something on this board is explain why it's bad. After that you all flock to it and intentionally cripple your own computer apparently because you think by doing that you're showing those "larpers" who's boss? Hey you really showed me, I can't imagine what you're like in threads about google or facebook.
>I'm not part of any development team
Yeah that much is obvious.
>Anyone who actually worked on X11 over the last 20 years will tell you it sucks and needed to be replaced long ago.
maybe but wayland is not the answer
>Yeah that much is obvious.
Reminder you are also not part of any development team.
>maybe but wayland is not the answer
Reminder you have not developed any window system and you never will. As bad as wayland is at least it exists and you can see the progress on shit like color management.
I have not worked on anything with X11 because there's no reason to, there's no possible way to improve it.
>Still, I want the lists because I hear this "They are the same devs!" from these threads (now I think it may be you samegayging in every Wayland thread) and never got any proof.
You will never get it if you keep acting this way. Change your behavior, stop being a useless piece of shit troll, and be someone the devs actually want to talk to, and then they'll all be begging to contact you and you'll have all the proof you need.
>Also it's always fun how Wayland shills switch from "it's the same guys -> good!" to "X11 is a clusterfrick and was developed in moronic way".
What's the problem? People who build a system learn from the experience and can then build a better system the next time. You would know this if you ever built something, but we all can tell you haven't written a single line of code in your life.
Please stop projecting. The only step the window system needs to be involved in is applying the current profile. Everything else is done outside the window system.
> You will never get it if you keep acting this way
> stop being a useless piece of shit troll
Okay, now I actually laughed out loud, thank you.
>you can see the progress on shit like color management.
They've made 0 progress.
>The only step the window system needs to be involved in is applying the current profile.
There's more than that, but that alone is a pretty big step m8.
Absolutely seething, I will keep making Wayland threads as long as you're around.
What have you worked with on X11?
If he isn't a Wayland developer himself (what does this even mean?) then it's just sad to watch.
>and they are never exposed for clients to set directly
Because it is not actually reliable for clients to stomp all over the system LUT. This is how you get misbehaved clients breaking other clients.
>Yep, it's another "not a protocol issue". Who could have guessed.
Everyone who is working on this because it literally isn't a protocol issue. A lot of necessary functionality was already separated out to colord long ago.
>Didn't you mention how Wayland will do it right for the server unlike X11?
This is how it will do it right for the server, I'm sorry you can't understand that.
>Lol.
It's happened countless times on these project, extra communication takes time.
The Wayland solution makes full use of colord. If you're criticizing wayland for being bad then you're criticizing colord.
GNOME and KDE still use it.
>The Wayland solution makes full use of colord
What are we talking about here? Colord? No, it doesn't use any wayland-specific code or libraries at all. The proposed protocol? No, it doesn't use colord at all (obviously it wouldn't).
What's your point? Storing the color profiles is obviously a different task from managing the display profile but you still need to do both to have a working color management system. Wayland is not going to reimplement colord in a wayland protocol.
Colord manages display profiles. It can work on wayland because it doesn't actually use wayland at all but communicates via dbus.
>Wayland is not going to reimplement colord in a wayland protocol.
In other words, it will be gimped and garbage like I thought. Thanks for playing.
> It can work on wayland because it doesn't actually use wayland at all but communicates via dbus.
Yes the developers of colord were smart and implemented it in a way that's not tied to any window system and can even be used without a window system to color manage programs running directly on the framebuffer. In the future more things will be done that way, tying software to X11 or Wayland or any window system is almost always stupid and unnecessary.
>In other words, it will be gimped and garbage like I thought.
It will be gimped and garbage because they don't pointlessly rewrite something that already exists and does the job correctly? What?
colord links to several X11 libraries and integrates will with xorg.
>It will be gimped and garbage because they don't pointlessly rewrite something that already exists and does the job correctly?
There is value in having a color management system that works correctly without relying on an outside daemon (dbus).
>colord links to several X11 libraries and integrates will with xorg.
It can also be used without that.
>There is value in having a color management system that works correctly without relying on an outside daemon (dbus).
No there isn't. Very little about color management actually needs a window system.
You don't see through me. You're looking into a mirror and you can't tell the difference.
Several were already given. Bu this point I'm just having fun looking at all the ways you can dismiss everything with various ways to restate "lol works on my machine".
Yes I do have a guilty conscience. The last time I posted names on IQfy they got trolled and harassed by people like you. I was unhappy about that and I don't want it to happen again. Sorry if you were expecting more but as they say, garbage in garbage out.
>Very little about color management actually needs a window system.
pants on head moronic.
was about to point that out. maybe he wants to do color management on tty?
To be fair, an HDR tty might be pretty cool? Should be possible in theory now I think.
> Several were already given.
And I guess if I ask you to point to a single one of them, you'll go "search for them yourself", right?
> lol works on my machine
So your concrete example works on my machine? Then it's not really a concrete example of something being broken, is it?
> Yes I do have a guilty conscience
I can see that.
>And I guess if I ask you to point to a single one of them, you'll go "search for them yourself", right?
No, in that case I will say I don't want to talk to trolls who can't follow the thread. Leave me alone and stop asking me to repeat myself. You get an F, you can't retake the class and you're expelled permanently.
>I can see that.
Observe 4 posts down where someone openly admits they want developers to get harassed
Reminder you have nothing to offer these developers, actually you have less than nothing because you're a pest, your presence is destructive and harmful and time wasting to everyone involved.
>They've made 0 progress.
Wow, that's exactly the same amount of progress you've made! You have so much in common with Wayland devs already.
>There's more than that, but that alone is a pretty big step m8.
No that's literally the only one that the NEEDS to be in the window system. Everything else can be outside, a few other things are more efficient when placed inside the window system and thus make the most sense to put there, but most things aren't.
How about instead of keep making wayland threads you keep writing code and committing it? Oh right you won't because you can't.
>No that's literally the only one that the NEEDS to be in the window system.
Uh no moron. Color aware applications need to communicate with the server obviously.
They actually don't and that's how X11 does it. Obviously that way is bad and is easy to break so I guess you're not the same anon who was saying X11 does color management perfectly.
>They actually don't and that's how X11 does it.
X11 notifies clients of ICC profile changes so they can update correctly (or maybe not update at all if they want). X11's color profile management is certainly not perfect though.
>X11 notifies clients of ICC profile changes so they can update correctly
This is just a hint that clients don't have to follow, it's not real color management.
Can't, I live in the desert.
"Can't reproduce" is fundamentally different from "works on my machine". It can be reopened if you find a way to reproduce.
>Then ban them or temporarily lock the channel. It is not hard.
It's not hard but it's tedious and annoying and a waste of time. Temporarily locking the channel hurts good users.
>Wayland is the cancer killing FOSS.
Haha what? Hilarious you say this when you spent the whole thread saying you'll never switch from X11, stay mad.
>Even Microsoft vendor lock-in hell is preferable to GNOME mentality being forced onto everyone.
What's a GNOME mentality and where did they force it on you? Did GNOME developers hold you at gunpoint and force you to install it?
>At least dwm.exe FRICKING WORKS!
Then go use it?
>I guess IQfy is a better board than I give it credit for.
Again you're openly admitting that you think harassing developers is good, and you still get butthurt at me for not posting the names of developers. Get fricked and die, c**t.
> if you find a way to reproduce
Guess you better find a way then.
Not my job, I'm not a developer on this project.
>It's not hard but it's tedious and annoying and a waste of time. Temporarily locking the channel hurts good users.
Yeah, well, shit happens. If you don't want janny work, put down the mop.
>Haha what? Hilarious you say this when you spent the whole thread saying you'll never switch from X11, stay mad.
I've only posted a few times ITT.
I'll be the first to admit Xorg is pretty shit, and have no particular soft spot for it. But--like dwm.exe--at least it works. I regularly use tools like wmctrl that cannot be ported to Wayland by design.
>What's a GNOME mentality and where did they force it on you? Did GNOME developers hold you at gunpoint and force you to install it?
If they could, they probably would, since most of them are apparently spics.
>Again you're openly admitting that you think harassing developers is good, and you still get butthurt at me for not posting the names of developers. Get fricked and die, c**t.
I never need to worry about being harassed because I'm a goddamn adult that can accept criticism for my projects' shortcomings. People who cannot should be bullied out of FOSS. It is natural and right.
You do not even deserve to work for Apple. At least Quarts FRICKING WORKS. Go work at Oracle.
>Yeah, well, shit happens. If you don't want janny work, put down the mop.
Or if you don't want to clean up shit then just don't invite shitposters to your project in the first place.
>at least it works
It does not.
>I regularly use tools like wmctrl that cannot be ported to Wayland by design.
By design wmctrl doesn't really work on X11 either. It requires the window manager to support certain atoms and some window managers break it.
>If they could, they probably would
So then they didn't force you.
>since most of them are apparently spics.
What's with the racism? This isn't /b/.
>I never need to worry about being harassed because I'm a goddamn adult that can accept criticism for my projects' shortcomings.
Schizos screeching racial slurs and conspiracy theories in your IRC channel is not "criticism of a project's shortcomings".
>People who cannot should be bullied out of FOSS. It is natural and right.
No and no. You're the cancer killing FOSS, you're the reason why competent people don't want to waste time with this trash. You're the reason why companies keep things closed source, they know a FOSS project with an open issue tracker will instantly get filled up with shitposts and bullying and will never be used to do productive work because the FOSS community is known to be trash full of schizos and beggars. Everything bad that you complain about is directly your fault and can be traced back to you. Get fricked and die.
> No, in that case
Point stands, you can't even point to your own supposed concrete examples.
Also, nice dodging a question of how come your supposed concrete example actually works on my machine.
> Observe 4 posts down
For all I know it can be (you) trying to support your guilty narrative.
> actually you have less than nothing because you're a pest
Ohhh yes, humiliate me harder, mommy. It totally fixes you lack of any concrete examples.
>you can't even point to your own supposed concrete examples.
You missed your chance. You get an F, you can't retake the class and you're expelled permanently. Sorry better luck next time, don't be a useless sack of shit.
>Also, nice dodging a question of how come your supposed concrete example actually works on my machine.
This was explained about 20 times. "lol works on my machine" is not a valid response to a bug.
>For all I know it can be (you) trying to support your guilty narrative.
For all you know it could be your split personality doing it and you can't remember it because you were disassociated.
>It totally fixes you lack of any concrete examples.
You have already failed the class, examples will not help you.
What classes do you teach, and at which institution?
> works on my machine
> not a Waldi response to a bug
Wow, I guess all the closed issues with the reasoning “can’t reproduce” don’t exist then.
>Observe 4 posts down where someone openly admits they want developers to get harassed
Good. Hopefully at some point they'll crack and either 41% or go work at Apple like they wish they already were. (You)
Look at the fricking site you're on.
We're not going to coddle and apologize for useless people because of muh heckin scary Internet threats. All online threats are fundamentally empty. They stop existing when you close the tab.
If you lack the stomach to read mean words online, you should not be in FOSS, because even if you are not an incompetent homosexual, some schizo will inevitably do so at some point.
>We're not going to coddle and apologize for useless people
These aren't useless people, these are people who actually develop the software we're talking about.
>They stop existing when you close the tab.
That's not an option when trolls invade the IRC and issue tracker because it got posted on IQfy. Those are official communication channels used for the project, you can't "just close the tab bro".
>If you lack the stomach to read mean words online, you should not be in FOSS
Congratulations, if you really think this then you're the cancer killing FOSS, you're the reason why no sane person would ever contribute to it.
>because even if you are not an incompetent homosexual, some schizo will inevitably do so at some point.
No they won't. It only happens when people intentionally invite schizos to your project by sharing the link to places that schizos populate, like this board for instance. Every single instance of harassment I've ever seen in FOSS can be traced back to people like you on shit boards like this.
Any project. Write your own window system, I don't care. Do something besides shitposting about things you know nothing about. The internet was a mistake.
I teach potty training at the baby day care, you failed.
Touch grass.
>These aren't useless people, these are people who actually develop the software we're talking about.
Unfortunately.
>That's not an option when trolls invade the IRC and issue tracker because it got posted on IQfy. Those are official communication channels used for the project, you can't "just close the tab bro".
Then ban them or temporarily lock the channel. It is not hard.
>Congratulations, if you really think this then you're the cancer killing FOSS, you're the reason why no sane person would ever contribute to it.
Wayland is the cancer killing FOSS.
Even Microsoft vendor lock-in hell is preferable to GNOME mentality being forced onto everyone. At least dwm.exe FRICKING WORKS!
>Every single instance of harassment I've ever seen in FOSS can be traced back to people like you on shit boards like this.
I see. I guess IQfy is a better board than I give it credit for.
>you should not be in FOSS
He's not even "in FOSS". It wouldn't surprise me if this guy is actually a windows user.
>writing code and committing it?
Where? What project? What does "contributing to Wayland" even mean, in practical terms?
And most importantly, why should I?
>The last time I posted names on IQfy they got trolled and harassed by people like you.
Good. Hopefully at some point they'll crack and either 41% or go work at Apple like they wish they already were.
>I'd prefer nothing changing my color profile, that's the point of profiles.
No, this is the opposite of reality. When you work with image and video content the content has its own profile and that information is needed to display it correctly. You NEED to be able to change profiles on the fly. This is the main point of color management, not whatever the frick you're using it for.
>But give such an app and I'll check.
Any video editing app.
>there are other ICC loaders.
They all do the same thing as dispwin with the same shortcomings.
>It just works and it does its job perfectly.
Because you stick to the happy path on very specific hardware and the "job" you do with it is not actually a job for color management.
>Such as?
I listed multiple of them, re-read my post.
>Which issues?
I listed multiple of them, re-read my post.
>Proofs?
Proof is you. You won't even acknowledge the bugs exist because they don't happen with your specific hardware/software combination.
>Examples?
I listed multiple of them, re-read my post.
>Proofs? There is nothing in issue tracker and the only mention I've seen is mailing list from 2019.

Nope, that's literally how it works. There's a ton of writing on this subject https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooks%27s_law
It's taking forever because they're making sure it won't be gimped.
Ah here it is, the typical wayshill playbook of "blame someone else for wayland's shortcomings".
> And no one cares about your needs.
X11 developers care, which is why it works.
> Come back when you can address the needs of all other users with all other combinations of GPU, driver, kernel, monitors, resolutions, refresh rates, etc.
It works with any of those on X11. Have been using it for decades.
> Otherwise you're not qualified to comment on window systems.
Lol.
> That's the scope of problem space, address it or get out.
It is already addressed by X11.
> Color calibration in X11 is a nasty hack that barely works,
Works properly. I simply load it with dispwin and it works perfectly.
> Wayland color management will actually work
Hahahaha. Maybe in another 10 years and every WM must implement it on their own.
> but it's taking forever because
As with everything Wayland devs seem unable to settle on any solution or say it's out of scope of the display server. Oh, sorry, "protocol".
> this work should have been done by X11 people 25 years ago and they have to make up for all that lost time.
Dispwin exists since at least 1996, when X11 was 12. Wayland is 13 already.
>X11 only "works" under very specific situations with very specific drivers and if you limit yourself to the happy path implemented by those drivers.
Wayland works in even more limited situations than X11 which is sad.
Bullshit, I have laptop with Nvidia and 144hz screen and everything runs smoothly. I even tried Wayland and everything smoothly the same there (but plasmashell refuse to start tho)
One screen was never at issue
I don't have any
Problem solved
That's fine, just people like using multiple monitors for multiple things
I guess having a really good monitor, maybe ultrawide, would be a better choice on linux specifically. But it's just not ideal. Not everyone loves the ultrawide shit.
One screen works fine. Plug in an external one and see what happens
then fix xorg, but nooo, we at redhat are vendorlocking here
I'm not using Wayland until they allow us to turn off forced vsync. That shit is gay as frick.
With Ubuntu using wayland as default the days of x are numbered.
>Ubuntu using wayland as default
