GNOME on Wayland in Fedora 21 (Fedora Magazine)

GNOME on Wayland in Fedora 21 (Fedora Magazine)

[Distributions] Posted Oct 9, 2014 17:07 UTC (Thu) by corbet

Here's a Fedora Magazine article on how Wayland works (or doesn't) in the upcoming Fedora 21 release. "The list of apps that don’t support Wayland yet is: Terminal, Empathy, Totem, PiTiVi, Sushi. From my experience the list is in fact longer. I couldn’t, for example, run GNOME’s “Software” application on Wayland. This also applies to pretty much all other applications (Firefox, LibreOffice, etc.) and you need to run them using XWayland. Fullscreen apps don’t work at all from my experience." The good news is that a lot of other stuff works well.
