new Raspi OS release

I still take my mirror displays and put them back into X11 mode. It’s what I understand, it’s what allows me to do what I want to do.

So from your perspective X11 still does work?

Thanks and regards,

@BKeyport X11 does not work for me, hence I use Wayfire. As Labwc is supposed to be the newer lighter compositor, I would like to get that to work for me.

@sdetweil I did not see it mentioned for trixie, but that is possible.

bad news :-(

But may things becomes better and the wayland implementation is better in Trixie than in Bookworm…

@rkorell Just read that X11 is still there in Trixie. So no stress yet, but yes, it is old and may be on it’s way out one of these good ol days.

@mumblebaj

Thanks for information!

I currently stay with x11 because - at least in my configuration - I wasn’t able to use wayland …
If this becomes better in further releases I simply would switch…

Ralf

@sdetweil So, I have not seen any issues thus far other than having to figure out the screen blanking for me on Labwc, I have to test the wlopm, but for now I have switched back to Wayfire. No other issues in logs etc.
