What do you think about XLibre?
https://github.com/X11Libre/xserver
>>
>>108798895
Nothing much. I think they should just contribute to Wayland.

honestly, I only use it because it makes trannies mad

>>108798895
I use Wayland so it's largely irrelevant to me.

Works fine, what is there to think about?

whats the advantage of this thing vs current ones?

I use wayland, never have used a x11 session before. Why should I care about this?

Get your heads checked. I've never seen proof that Wayland works. You've never soon proof that Wayland works. It's still just a theory, and none of you actually use it.

XLibre is Xorg with bugfixes. It's great and it obviously works. The proof is in the pudding. Conversely, Wayland does not work, and has no pudding.
>>
>>108799969
Wayland works without any issues on my machine. Have been using it since the beginning of the year. Used to be catastrophic mess, now it's good.

It's still unfinished retard

>>108798895
If they manage to unfuck X11 that would be neat for older devices.
I think phoenix is a cooler idea though. https://github.com/external-mirrors/phoenix

>>108800002
Okay but does it matter if it does everything I want without issues?

>>108799989
>Wayland works
Show Qlipper, AbiWord, GNUmeric, Jmol, Pinta, Qmmp, ReText, HardInfo2, PyChess, and Remmina running correctly under Wayland.
>>
>>108799961
that's a VERY flattering rendition of that fat ugly dweeb
>>
>>108800029
The only one of those I use is HardInfo2 and it runs just fine.

>>108800029
maybe cpu-x running correctly under wayland should be fine

Ohnononono what is you doin my boi you gonna bring the fury of hell upon ye
still based tho

I don't use it but I like that it exists.

I think it's wasted effort compared to phoenix

Looks like they put up their green grocer sign. Why the fuck else would someone make shit like this one of the first public facing things anyone sees.

its still the same dogshit fragmented protocol
>>
>>108800277
They did it because people accused them of being heckin' evil nahtzees and it was meant to be a gotcha. But obviously you can't win with mentally ill people that want to see you raped, dead, and think it's funny.

I love it. I'll gladly suffer the screen tearing and daily crashes as long as my X is de-troonified.

It's extremely unprofessional. Baffling that such behavior is acceptable for any organization, let alone expected these days.

Use case for Wayland?

Go be professional at mcdonalds tranny.

>>108800490
Reading comprehension is not your strong suit I take it. Putting tranny/faggot shit on front facing media like readmes or corpo logos is extremely unprofessional. You would think that even supporters of this stuff would think this too but forcing people to be extremely unprofessional is of course part of the ritual.

The whole point of XLibre is to implement those features you listed.

Do I need libxtrans to compile?
>>
>>108800906
You do, to compile Wayland.
>>
whats the usecase for someone who already uses X11? just seems like extra work getting external packages
>>
>>108800946
Usecase is continuing to use your X11 since Xorg Xserver is deprecated and no longer developed.
>>
>>108800906
No, the transportation code has been copied into xlibre so it doesn't depend on libxtrans
>>
>>108798895
it works for me so I like it, simple as
>>
>>108798895
Is this fully backward compatible with regular xwindows? Throwing decades of compatibility out the window is retarded. So far it's been possible to render GUIs remotely over SSH, which I actually used sometimes.
I absolutely don't care about their new flavor of the month garbage they forced to become the new worldwide standard, I just want a modular system I can use remotely and one that doesn't crash every app when one of the app crashes.

>"if you don't like the current state of x11 just fork it"
>forks it
>causes infinite drama
Either there's some massive conspiracy to kill off anything except wayland or people make drama for the sake of having drama.
I use wayland because I have mixed resolution/refresh-rate screens and want to use hdr and variable refresh rate. Xlibre might be able to do that but until wayland becomes more trouble than it's worth I'll just keep using it.
>>
>>108799623
you're lying or underage
either way, >>>reddit

How does it handle display scaling? I have a 4k screen and wayland works pretty well but I remember having issues when I used X11 on a 1440p display a while ago.

I see no point since Wayland exists.

Your DE literally has xwayland inside of it and always will because wayland is a patchwork of temp fixes.

I was about to call you either a jeet, nigger or redditor but I can't decide so instead I'll just inform you that luddite was a term used on /g/ to describe well.... luddites when LLMs were little more than a fever dream

You're arguing between competing computer rendering software, expand your vocabulary retard.

it's better to stay on xlibre with proprietary nvidia driver

it will work also

>fragmented protocol
its not wayland's fault that gnome doesnt fucking support half the protocols
>>
>>108804858
its not gnomes fault that wayland is a dogshit protocol bud. instead of having generic buidling blocks like x11, it has autistically hyper specific usecase protocol extensions
t. gnome hater
>>
I don't think about it at all. I don't think about any display server because I'm not a dipshit who wastes his time caring about stupid consumer shit I don't have any cards in. Imagine.
>>
>>108798895
Yep. Is there legitimately any actual noticeable improvement over just plain X11?
>>
>>108798895
tried it on devuan ceres in a VM, it's much faster than OG Xorg

I'm not gonna use ceres on bare metal lmao. fuck updoooooting every day.
