But, I'm more concerned with backwards compatibility (and speed) with old X clients (until, of course they eventually, port to Wayland). Since XWayland is another layer, so will inherently will add toll, but can that be completely overtaken by the lightness and speed of Wayland? I really need a minimalistic and fast desktop environment, you see...<br>> > <br>> > <br>> <br>> > _______________________________________________<br>> > wayland-devel mailing list<br>> > wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org<br>> > http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel<br>> <br></div> </div></body>
