Justine SmithiesPlaying around with <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=labwc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Labwc</a> and it's really quite nice. I could get used to a stacking <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wayland</a> compositor and the best bit is it can window snap to the edges too. So it's okay for basic tiling like most. I have built <code>labwc</code> myself from their repo though just to get the latest updates. <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a>

Justine SmithiesDecided that using xorg on my dell optiplex 3080 tower under <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> isn't for me although it bought back memories. I have seen how certain software has already become stale by which I mean no updates or bug fixes in a good 4-5 years. So I've switched back to <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wayland</a> which I still use on my <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=thinkpad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ThinkPAD</a> . But my experience of using twm and xterm have made me go explore <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=labwc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Labwc</a> again with my favourite Wayland terminal Foot. It's a lovely minimal stacking window manager which can be themed using <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=openbox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenBox</a> themes. I have gruvbox dark installed which I quite like. As to what bar I'm going to use ? I'm not sure maybe waybar or sfwbar or even something else ? <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=runbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RunBSD</a> <a href="https://github.com/labwc/labwc" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://github.com/labwc/labwc</a>

Justine SmithiesHa ! Just built <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=labwc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Labwc</a> from their git repo on <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> and it worked like a charm. I expected to hit problems but no. I now have the very latest commit version. <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=runbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RunBSD</a> <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wayland</a> <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=windowmanager" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WindowManager</a>

Justine SmithiesStill playing around with <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=labwc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Labwc</a> and although it's a <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wayland</a> stacking window manager that can tile aka snap to edge it can also be totally configured to work with just the keyboard. I'm pretty impressed so far with what can be achieved. If you liked <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=openbox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenBox</a> then definitely give this a shot as you'll love it.

𝘋𝘪𝘳𝘬<a href="https://fosstodon.org/@whynothugo" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@whynothugo</a> I searched for various solutions to create a “fake output” on <a href="https://gts.0x7be.net/tags/labwc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#labwc</a>. It seems to be impossible here. So I guess I have to wait … Maybe some trickery with a nested instance … oh well 🫣

𝘋𝘪𝘳𝘬Still no individual window capture in <a href="https://gts.0x7be.net/tags/obs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OBS</a> :obs: under <a href="https://gts.0x7be.net/tags/wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wayland</a> :wayland: on <a href="https://gts.0x7be.net/tags/labwc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Labwc</a> :labwc:, right?

PhotorDie neue Version von <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Xfce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Xfce</a> kommt mit <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wayland</a>-Unterstützung in <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/ArchLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ArchLinux</a>. Ich habe das mal installiert. Beim Einloggen mittels GDM kann man zwischen X oder Wayland wählen.Xfce/X funktioniert natürlich. Bei Xfce/Wayland lande ich sofort wieder in GDM … weil der Fenstermanager noch kein Wayland kann. Es braucht noch <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/labwc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#labwc</a> oder <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/wayfire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#wayfire</a> dazu. Mit labwc startet Xfce dann. Aber fertig ist Xfce/Wayland noch nicht. Einige Dinge tuen leider noch nicht. Muss ich wohl noch warten. Schade.

Evan MaddockAfter adding a missing dependency to xfce4-panel, I now have a usable XFCE4 Wayland session using labwc!There are definitely some hiccups to work out; primary display detection doesn't seem to work, for instance. But it is actually usable. Awesome stuff!Again, it should be stressed that this is all experimental work, still.
