Fredrik EngbergAnyone out there running wayland on #openbsd, as a daily driver that have written anything about it?
romanwhat are practical benefits of wayland vs x11 on #openbsd?
@hi I dont know, thats why Im looking for what someone else have tried. Before diving head first in.
VlkrSdoas pkg_add sway foot
then execute startsway.sh
or
doas pkg_add labwc foot
then execute labwc (I guess, never tried that)
or
doas pkg_add niri foot
then execute startniri.sh
or
doas pkg_add wayfire foot
then execute startwayfire.sh
I recommend installing foot as a wayland-native terminal emulator, in case you couldn't tell. There's more wayland stuff (https://openports.pl/cat/wayland) but that'll get you started. Just remember to turn off xenodm.
can run

@hi check /etc/fbtab - does it contain /dev/dri/card0 and /dev/dri/renderD128 if not, it should (https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/checkout/src/etc/etc.amd64/fbtab,v?rev=1.9) ... and you need login from ttyC0.
Firefox scrolling will probably be fixed with a pkg update the next few days. For now, try disabling soft scrolling.
