Note: Xface wiki doesn’t explicitly mention version 4.20 comes with Wayland support. https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/wayland_roadmap
minus-squarewvstolzing@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-21 year agoOn https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/wayland_roadmap it says: xfce4-panel and xfdesktop have been ported to Wayland assuming our compositor will be based on wlroots. xfce4-panel + xfdesktop + labwc is all the ‘xfce’ I think I’d ever need; so the wayland port is more or less ‘done’, AFAIC. (Thunar has been wayland native since the gtk3 port completed a long time ago.)
minus-squareLeFantome@programming.devlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoMe too. I could use another Wayland compositor and be pretty happy. On my iMac, I have been running Metacity as a WM because xf4wm had some kind of memory leak. Most of the “apps”, including Thunar, already run on Wayland as well I believe.
