ps aux | grep pcmanfm

nothing

 

[Alain De Vos]

Here is a list of ports. And their default options as they are build for the default freebsd packages,
discordo - WAYLAND: off
efl - WAYLAND: off
glfw - WAYLAND: off
gstreamer1-vaapi - WAYLAND: off
ibus - WAYLAND: off
imv - WAYLAND: off
libxine - WAYLAND: off
lives - WAYLAND: off
password-store - WAYLAND: off
rofi-wayland - TEST: off
xwayland - NVIDIA: off
xwayland-devel - NVIDIA: off

If one of your pograms has a dependency on one of them and it does not has the right option for your "specific-configuration". It "could" be a cause of problems.
In that case the solution is to build packages manually with coherent options.

 

[Ogis]

Whatever you messed up, for me it works all the time. This is not a Wayland error.

Maybe you could write more specifically, which version of pcmanfm is working for you? I really don't think the gtk2 version is working for you...as for gtk3, maybe it works or not....

Moved the discussions from the howto back to the discussion thread. If you post to the howto thread I will start deleting posts when they hit the moderation queue.

currently, i testing completely X-less firefox build, this is now possible, since upstream resolved most of issues with building an running firefox on pure wayland environment ( by means not even building against any X11 libraries ). This requires some minimal change into bsd.gecko.mk and port. It works just fine. [1], [2]

This error :

pcmanfm (opened within the Mate Terminal) = nop :

(pcmanfm:6688): GLib-ERROR **: 22:00:49.865: ../glib/gmem.c:137: failed to allocate 18446744039306312921 bytes
Trace/BPT trap

can't be caused by NVIDIA because I'm running Wayland on top of the i915 driver. My NVIDIA gpus are dedicated only for the bhyve / Linux VMs. And since pcmanfm works with X11 with and without NVIDIA but it does not work on Wayland without NVIDIA,the problem is,going by exclusion, probably Wayland,not X11 and/or NVIDIA.

You are using the gtk3 version of pcmanfm?
If yes you might contact the maintenaner.

 

[MasterOne]

So this discussion died 2 months ago?

Just wondering how practicable this desktop approach is in real life to get work done.

 

[ZioMario]

In my opinion,it is almost good,but the better choice is to wait again a couple of years.

 

[ZioMario]

Can someone repost the tutorial ? I'm not able to find it here or here :

Example/Tutorial: Pure Wayland Desktop

[Mod: Discussion/suggestions/requests are moved here: example-tutorial-pure-wayland-desktop-discussion.85994] Hello, I was fiddling around quite a bit, to get a completely native Wayland desktop on FreeBSD (without using xwayland, only using programs that are capable to run natively under...

forums.freebsd.org

I want to replicate the steps.

 

[Alain De Vos]

Sidenote, wayland does not work with nvidia-cards.
I think you must have intel or radeon/amd.

 

[ZioMario]

I'm not sure that it's true. NapoleonWils0n has one nvidia card and it is running wayland. Check the tutorial below :

https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/...linuxulator-the-gpu-is-working-but-full.92402

 

[Alain De Vos]

I avoid linuxulator as hell.
But i have a linux on virtualbox. Can try a bit with that one.

 

[ZioMario]

me,instead I avoid virtualbox as hell,because there is no tinkering,no fun with it,but with the linuxulator there is a lot.

 

[elgrande]

Wayland nowadays works with Nvidia using graphics/nvidia-drm-kmod.

 

[scottro]

Yes, that's correct, it works now. You need the nvidia-drm module. If I'm using Wayland, I do kldload nvidia-drm and can then, assuming everything else is ok, can run Wayland. However, with labwc, I have no mouse though if I try to click on a weblink it works. But in dwl, it works without problems. I can leave that module loaded and go back to X. I don't know why, and don't like Wayland enough to figure it out, but if I then unload the module, my machine reboots.

Or, you can add kld_list="nvidia-drm" to /etc/rc.conf if you're always running it.

I made a little page, detailing my trials and tribulations with it at https://srobb.net/wayland.html, but it doesn't really add anything that hasn't been mentioned here, and probably as much mention of Fedora,the other system I tried it on, as FreeBSD, though both are mentioned.

EDIT: For some reason it seems to have stopped working. I do service seatd onestart, and it comes back with a message No clients on seat0 to activate. But it was working, at least for a few days.

 

[sonphantrung]

ziomario May be unrelated, but how did you tackle with the "Unable to drop root" error when starting wayfire? Did you delete the `/var/run/user/1001` folder, then create it again?

 

[ZioMario]

Hello everyone,

I'm also trying to make this work, but then, I have some "weird issues" as you can see in the last lines of the log:

When I start wayfire, only the mouse works and only the background is loaded and then, nothing else loads. I'm using the default wayfire configuration. The hardware is a intel mac mini 6.1 as it's described here:

https://bsd-hardware.info/?probe=365bb9e521

kernel modules are loaded correctly, any ideas? thanks!

I'm, completely confused as usual. Are we supposed to start this manually at the command line after login? I tried:

wayfire -c <path to config file>

on the command line after logging in and got:

Whats the proper way to start this? Is there supposed to be a display manager? I use amd btw not nvidia. I think it may be caused by output not set correct in wayfire.ini. I tried eDP-1, HDMI-A-1 and HDMI-1. none worked. wlr-randr and xrander say "failed to connect to display". amdgpu.ko is loaded. How to get output name?

Edit:
chatgpt says run this:
dbus-run-session -- env XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland WLR_BACKENDS=libinput,drm wayfire

That gave me a gui desktop. The doc just says run wayfire. That's quite different. This is really poorly documented and totally confusing.
