 emily | I imagine they'll continue getting security fixes / critical bug fixes for longer than GNOME/KDE/distros/etc. will actively ship them to users | 17:37:34 |
| emily | but they're very much basic maintenance mode already and that's only going to decrease | 17:37:45 |
| emily | Xorg devs have moved on to Wayland at this point | 17:38:03 |

|  frontear joined the room. | 05:53:09 |
| frontear | pong | 05:53:14 |
| frontear | will continue here | 05:53:18 |
 ElvishJerricco | o/ | 05:53:20 |
| frontear | doing another quick build of the iso image, shouldnt take too long | 05:53:38 |
| frontear | unrelated but I like how the gnome iso is 2GB smaller with lz4 compression used for both. anyways booting with the debug flag and plymouth off | 05:56:25 |
| frontear | Interesting. | 05:57:23 |
| frontear | on here it actually uh | 05:57:26 |
| frontear | worked | 05:57:27 |
| frontear | no X11 either | 05:57:31 |
| frontear | hm wait a minute | 05:57:59 |
| frontear | XDG_SESSION_TYPE is reporting X11 | 05:58:07 |
| frontear | weird, i didnt select the X11 specialisation | 05:58:20 |
| ElvishJerricco | huh. I guess GDM is still detecting whether it wants to use X or wayland? | 05:58:45 |
| ElvishJerricco | if you log out of the session and use the icon in the lower right to choose the wayland session, does it start? | 05:59:14 |
| frontear | doesnt seem to have a wayland option in the lower right, or any corner for that matter | 05:59:56 |
| frontear | wonder if i should use the official iso | 06:00:05 |
| frontear | maybe the specialisation is messing this up? not sure | 06:00:24 |
| ElvishJerricco | shouldn't be | 06:00:28 |
| frontear | i know im definitely not selecting it | 06:00:29 |
| frontear | though yeah i dont see any selection option here in GDM | 06:00:55 |
| ElvishJerricco | l /run/current-system/specialisation/ would be empty if you're in the X11 specialisation or it would have an X11 link if not | 06:01:03 |
| frontear | oh good point | 06:01:11 |
| frontear | lemme check that | 06:01:13 |
| frontear | got the X11 link, so it definitely isnt loaded | 06:01:35 |
| frontear | oh hey wait | 06:01:59 |
| ElvishJerricco | ok. I thought GDM no longer autodetected that it should use X11 instead of Wayland, but I guess I was wrong | 06:02:00 |
