Adding a Wayland session for Fedora LXQt for F40?
by Neal Gompa 12 Jan '24

Hey folks, It's been a while since I last brought up the topic of Wayland for LXQt[1], but some interesting developments have occurred since then. First, it looks like upstream is settling on labwc[2] and has a session that can be packaged[3]. Alternatively, there's apparently a Wayfire plugin for LXQt too[4]. Second, there's a full-blown Wayland effort going on now[5] and a separate status page[6]. Third, SDDM supports running on Wayland (Fedora KDE does this with KWin through sddm-wayland-plasma[7], and Fedora Sway does this with Sway through sddm-wayland-sway[8]). It should be relatively easy to adapt the latter's configuration for labwc or wayfire. It seems like there's some concrete direction for LXQt on Wayland that it would be cool to see a Wayland session offered in Fedora LXQt. What do you think? Are we at a time to finally make this happen?
