Greg V <greg@unrelenting.technology>: > It's very usable, I'm running a Wayland compositor (Weston), with > VAAPI and Vulkan and whatnot :) Slightly OT, but can you describe what is required to get Wayland running? What additional software is required? Can I (still) use xterm, Opera 12, etc? I am interested in trying this stuff. However lacking the basics I could not convince myself to undertake this adventure. Currently I am on FreeBSD 11.2 (UEFI) using Xorg (1.20, patch for ports taken from pr196678) with the modesetting driver on a Haswell system. The laptop works with the base(!) drm without a glitch. The ports drm kmod works as well, no idea if its preferable. I am always loading the kms module manually... I would appreciate any useful advices! Regards, Gunther Nikl
